Can’t wait to hear David Parker comment on how it was rigged and un-democratic.

Another vote for Da Nensh.

I voted for Ganley as my #2. She's probably be a better overall leader in the long-run, but I don't think she can beat BusBoobs

Ezra is Rebel. Believe it or not there are several far right grifting services running.

Ezra Levant founded The Western Standard, but sold it many years ago.

And I bet they all find a way to the shrine of Preston Manning.

Not sayin' it's necessarily the case here, but every neighbourhood has its cranky old sourpuss that bored Junior High boys like to prank and otherwise harass merely for entertainment purposes. I can easily see Mr. Fildebrandt being such a person.

That's a meta grift right there.

Grift the grifters by selling them your grift so they can continue to grift.

What an idiot.

I don’t fault him for giving them a piece of his mind(within reason) but making threats to teenagers beyond saying you’ll call the cops next time is not only a sign of complete immaturity but also just incredibly dumb. Especially in today’s day and age where if they did something to his property odds are that either he or one of his neighbours probably caught it on a doorbell camera.

So there are 4 victims/witnesses, plus and additional witness (the neighbour who intervened).

Innocent until proven guilty, of course, but I really want there to be some security camera or cell phone footage. CBC is reporting that he is accused of chasing them with a shotgun, and if proven, would be quite a bit different than "old man yelling at teens". He claims it was a walking cane.

A walking cane is also a weapon...

Derek Fildebrandt is only 38, hardly a cranky old man.

Sometimes I cant distinguish right wingers from seniors who complain about taxes and hate change.
