“It is a first. I have never seen such a blatant defacement of our sacred symbol and believe that if other Canadians could see it, they’d be as outraged as I am,” says Bill Maxwell, who is secretary of the Legion’s Poppy and Remembrance Committee. A young man lies inContinue Reading
A pattern is emerging in the conduct of the Trudeau government. It straddles fairly stylishly between gestures to the trendy and fashionable cutting leftward edge of its support without grossly offending the solid centre of the country that provides the majority for any Canadian federal government. That centre was fairlyContinue Reading
More cronyism in Cornwall Ontario as CFN has learned that former TC Media Seaway News editor Todd Lihou has been given a two year contract with Heart of the City, an arms length agency in Cornwall, funded with tax dollars, which employs City Councilor Denis Carr as it’s manager/leader. WeContinue Reading
The problem with running a campaign based on a whole lot of promises that clearly will never be kept is that eventually it comes back to bite you on the bum. While good political teams try and deflect and navigate the choppy waters, the Trudeau team seems to be takingContinue Reading
Cornwall is one of the oddest communities I’ve ever lived in and I’ve lived in a few. The political corruption fingers through everything from City Hall, to charities, and even our SD&G Highlanders apparently. First you have former MPP Jim Brownell named as Honourary Lt. Colonel. ThatContinue Reading
I don’t often agree with Liberal leader Justin Trudeau, but I do think he is going in the right direction with his open membership proposal. In this country our politicians often lament that the population is largely disengaged from our political process and we try to find all sorts ofContinue Reading
Dear Editors of all news papers please place this letter addressed to The Honorable Prime Minister,MP’s and MPP’s to alert your readership of the impending laws that Health Care Givers will be forced to participate in against their conscious, against their beliefs, against their Charter of Rights and Freedoms. WithContinue Reading
Some agendas are more clear than others. The Ontario government makes a lot of money off of the licensing of tobacco products. In theory those monies are supposed to offset the high medical costs of traditionally smoked tobacco. E Cigs have grown exponentially with many using them asContinue Reading
It has been fascinating watching the Trudeau Liberals twist and squirm over their definition of combat in Iraq. If you believe their nonsense talk points (which can only be dreamt up in a political staff meeting) our forces on the ground in Iraq are not in a combat role. The LiberalsContinue Reading
As many regular CFN viewers know I am “Hyper Non Partisan” politically. I decided, after dealing with politicians here on CFN that I could no longer support Partisan Politics. It made no sense from a personal view point. Yes, belonging to a group could be a good thing, butContinue Reading
It’s been fully a week since Prime Minister Justin Trudeau issued a Holocaust Remembrance Day statement absent of any specific mention of Jewish suffering in the Holocaust, and the only mainstream media mention of the breathtakingly glaring omission was in the conservative-minded Toronto Sun. . I posted about Trudeau’s whitewashingContinue Reading

Ottawa, Ontario 27 January 2016 The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today issued the following statement on the International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust:Continue Reading
Don’t you just love how a party’s election promises suddenly disappear once they gain power? We have already seen that in just over a month with the Liberals- remember their limited deficits that they were going to run? So far we have seen the Trudeau gang throw our money aroundContinue Reading
I mulled over whether to write this story or not. I get abused and attacked every time I highlight something negative about our city; even though what I write about is true. When I wrote about Swastikas in a local high school and used the R word it ledContinue Reading
Hello Editor, RE: LTE: NDP did not provide enough change – Cornwall Newswatch It is with great interest I read the opinion expressed by Brian Lynch which I agree in principle. However, there are two elephants in the room that the author failed to mention for understandable reasons. Who hasContinue Reading
Canadians have spoken, and loudly, condemning Stephen Harper and rebuking his policies to the point of giving Justin Trudeau and his Liberals a full majority. Thomas Mulcair and his NDP fared even worse than Harper sliding back to their traditional less than 50 seats. Locally Guy Lauzon handily beat CityContinue Reading
As we get closer to the 19th it seems the local Liberals are feeling the frustration from trailing so badly in the poll numbers. Or simply they have an utter boob as a riding President and simply didn’t replace him as they never had much hope of actuallyContinue Reading
