Poor Cons, when it comes to defend their racism have to compare themselves to Taliban to prove themselves better. Though that is not even the case. They are equally screwed up
Loser conservatives, she has all the right to use whatever in her disposal to prevent Canada to become Afghanistan of you facists and your leader Harper who we all know who is pulling his string.
Your facist 10th century idiology is doomed and you will go to hell.
As this hero lady says, Harper DOES NOT represent Canada
Bravo girl. You could see and had the courage to express what millions of Canadians fail to see. Harper, which should have booted out of politics as his party was found in contempt of parliment, was rewarded a majority government though three quarters of Canadians did not vote for him but his election mean a dictatorship to come. He will change this country to a pro-war and racist one and will destroy its peaceful reputation. Conservatives are Canadian verion of Taliban.
In the countries she draws her inspiration, she would've been stoned to death for treason, especially as a woman. So please...Like we have it bad? Wake the fuck up.
If depape doesnt like canada go live in those countries where you have no rights at alll. Grow up harper got voted back in because of the opposition claiming contemp of parliament which was bs. You guys wasted 300 million dollars on a dam election. What a bunch of wing nuts. Canads fullnof them
I see all the leftie kooks have a new hero. Too bad this youthful exuberance wasn't paired with a good dose of thoughtfulness and intelligence... but that's not what the University of Ottawa is known for anyway. Go enjoy your 'Arab Spring' ... what a joke.
@mxer145 so your saying we should take away the jobs of all the hard working albertans in the oilsands? It is not canadas fault the world runs on fossil fuels, so why should it be our reponsibility to give up our jobs and our luxuries for the sake of the better good. Is Saudi Arabia just going to stop drilling? Not a chance. So keep trolling the oil sands while reaping the benefits of it everyday.
@mxer145 Did you look at the number?! I guess you did not bother.... but there are such things as math and reality. If you don't bother with math or reality, it is your problem.
Harper beat all others in the number of seats and popular vote. Deal with it and don't invent things. We Canadians value democracy here.
Harper did not win a majority - he only got 40% of the popular vote! We need change in the electoral system and more younge people like Bridget DePape to begin to be a represented voice in the political process. She could not hold her voice after one year of first hand experience in the parliamentary system, one which Harper promised reform but immediately appointed Senators that lost the vote of their constituency only to be patronized to a cushy, well paid senate position.

@WickensJim - Who cares? Harper won a majority, regardless of the voting demographics. And his 167 seats was even bigger than one of Chretien's majority wins. You've got him for the next four years. "Whorehouse" Jack doesn't even have enough opposition seats (collectively) to unseat Harper. All he going to do is squawk noisily from the opposition benches - something he is used to I'm sure. But hey, at least Jack and Olivia have their government housing now (Stornoway) ....
This young lady has no respect for democracy or the will of the Canadian people. This was done as a stunt probably put up by a politically-inspired parent.
She was given this privileged job and she trashed it with utter disrespect to Parliament.
@supersnowyangel So very wrong. Believe it or not - not all 21 year olds are like those on Much Music. There are some that know and are concerned about the world around them. She is 100% right. I say thank God for Brigitte De Pape and those like her!!
This woman just betrayed the trust of her employers (the Government of Canada, to use a US term 'We the people') to disrespect the outcome of a recent election. If we are not willing to respect the outcome of an election, especially when it doesn't go our way (I am *not* a Harper supporter), then the system doesn't work. This is how democracy falls apart. She was trusted with a role in one of our institutions and she walked in and pissed on the rug. She deserves only contempt, not respect.
We don't need to put money into the military to support the USA in their Fascist campaigns to secure cheap oil around the world, a system artificially propped up. 30 Million dollars a day was spent at the height of the Iraq War. If they put even a fraction of that money into clean green energy, we would have no need to go steal other peoples' resources like oil. Google this guy E.F. Schumaker - The brilliant economist who wrote 'Small is Beautiful'
Harper has pulled the military out of Afghanistan as pledged and on schedule, not that Afghanistan had any oil to begin with.
As difficult as it may be to understand, the only thing that keeps the US from exerting power over us is a strong military. Not to deter an invasion, but to simply run a country. Take natural disasters like floods for example. Only the military has the flexibility, equipment and experience to deal with these things. Without it, we rely on the US totally.
Go Bridget. btw wrobinson, where are these jobs with the tax cuts that make us the best deal for corporations. News flash buddy, they only have to hold a few jobs here, then they can outsource all the work. Harpers majority is scary. He is a Bush in harper clothing. The only thing that has saved Canada's economy is the restrictions put on by the Liberals before he got here. How long until we have back street abortions and abolish same sex marriages. Can't you see Harper is a demon?
Why do people use the fighter jets as a scapegoat every time... I would rather they use 9 billion to buy these F-35's instead of wasting money upgrading 40 year old raggidy ass F-18's. Canadians don't seem to realize that we arnt immune to attacks and we are eventually going to have to defend what's ours. Particularly our abundant supply of fresh water and fossil fuels.
And what the fuck are these "Green Jobs" you all seem to think are just hiding around the corner? We didn't make the world r
@Vasily34 "we aren't immune to attacks." You watch far too much CNN. Open your eyes - we are told these things so that government can write fat cheques to their college buddys in the name of national security. Sad. Do you ont see what is wrong...really?! Giving hugh tax breaks to corps - ex: Oil Sands that have HUGE impacts on the environment or other corps that pack up and move to China anyway (that have factories still using harmful coal btw) leaving thousands with out jobs. This is wrong.
@Vasily34 The CF-188 fleet, post-midlife refit, is hardly 'raggidy ass' (certainly far superior to what most armed forces of the world are operating). In any event, there are aircraft vastly better suited to the mission of Canada's air force than the F35; being pushed ahead, without open competition, because many corporations who stand to benefit most directly from its shared production are also high on the list of Conservative Party campaign donors.
She is obviously an intelligent young woman, with a set of balls, if not flaky. What she doesn't realize, is that corporate tax cuts encourage manufacturing plants to set up shop in Canada. For us working stiffs, that means JOBS! She should try to work in the real world. And no, Gov't jobs don't count. Watch a House debate sometime. They act like grade 2 kids. She's just mad because her artsy Liberal handouts have run dry. PS, if you don't want jets to defend Can, go fly a kite.
Bridget, keep it up, we need more pepole like yourself. as a small busness owner this prick is not doing anything but screwing us all....YOU HAVE MY FULL SUPPORT!!!
God bless you lady! You might be cursed now, but by the end of this century your name will be in textbooks and future generations will study why you were persecuted while fighting for their rights. Of course most people who criticize you won't be around by then, but what do they care?
Fuck you all disapproving of her protest, Harper is a disease and she's the cure! of course most of you are against her, you voted for the fuckin' dumb witted Harper for yourself, with the Harper Majority, I'd like to welcome you all to The United States of CanaDUH!..i'm losing faith in the county i have always loved since i was a kid, FU STEPHEN HARPER
Depape is her stage name. Her real is Brigette Marcelle. And parliament was not the place to hold her personal little protest against the majority government. Thats what the Official Opposition is for.
smug well fed nonsense. I bet all the cause's she believes in would get better support if it wasn't for that fact that all the people involved weren't upper middle class consumer's instead of worker's, you know the people that get things done every day in this country.
Unfortunately, without proportional representation, democracy can lead to 100% of the power being given to a party that receives a fraction of the votes.
Brigitte DePape is trying to find alternatives to that situation.
She asks is parliament the place to do it? Yes. It belongs to the people. In a meaningful democratic society the people and the government are one, are identical.
