Harper government awards CTV Globe Media with two Senate positions

by Dr. John Singh

CTV Broadcaster Mike Duffy, and his former colleague Pamela Wallin, were among 18 Conservatives appointed by the Stephen Harper government just before Christmas. The appointing of such veteran journalists to Senate patronage positions further demonstrates a deep level of apparent collusion between Canadian political elites and journalists. Apparently, gone are the days of shows like This Hour Has Seven Days, the kept politicians on their toes before the debut of 60 Minutes in the United States.

Now it is apparent that Canadian journalists, with a particular reference to CTVGlobeMedia's strident pro-Conservative apparent bias, view themselves a public relations dissemblers for agendas of the elites. The cover-up of the North American Union (NAU) agenda, is one of many examples of Canada's journalists selling out Canadians, in the hopes of securing various emoluments through prostituting themselves to the highest bidder.

The appointment of these 18 Senators, further demonstrates Harper's professed desire to pursue the democratic reform of the Senate, is little more than the rhetoric of a con, with little respect for integrity and ethics. Such actions, of course, is consistent with the Harper's vulgar apparent collusion with autocratic-minded Monarchists, to "prorogue Parliament". This proroguing was such an affront to a responsible democracy, that it even drew ridicule from the normally parochial Americans, who are generally not particularly interested in the politics of their Canadian neighbour.

The Harper government has demonstrated once more that it is a true representative of a system of 'crony' capitalism, that disregards parliamentary responsibility, while seeking to promote individuals and groups that participate in their secret agenda to destroy Canada.

It remains to be seem if we, as Canadians will collectively wake up in time to save our society from the cynical milieu, that Harper has further exposed, in his appointments of journalists that we as Canadians entrust to keep his government honest and accountable. What next? Police getting and then accepting awards from pimps, and criminal syndicates?
