City Councilor Bernadette Clement looked more blue than red as she finally kicked off her campaign in Morrisburg yesterday. The heat was unbearable and wilted the crowd of mostly seniors and staffers. Ms Clement looks like the heat was getting to her in the picture above during the hotContinue Reading
I had two odd conversations with two journalists in the last 24 hours. The first was a late night ping on facebook when a disgruntled journo asked if I’d seen the shameless cover of the latest seeker. I answered no, because like many in Cornwall I don’t readContinue Reading

A great opportunity to meet Bernadette and help her – her team isContinue Reading
This has to be the weirdest Federal election I’ve lived through. I’m now a hyper partisan voter. No more party allegiances for me. The problem is that in this race the one leader I’d lean towards I’ve lost all faith in. Nor do I see that much separatingContinue Reading
While this disturbing, but hotly awesome piece of video is going viral it shows a few things about politics in Canada in 2015. One that the Harperites are extremely unhappy with the Mike Duffy saga; not so much for what Duffy did, but for how it’s played out. DoesContinue Reading
I was asked to run in the current Federal election as an Independent candidate. A group had come together, cash in hand, ready to roll, but I decided I couldn’t do it with any integrity. Yes it would be fun to stand on stage and debate Guy & Bernie, toContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario — It’s been a bumpy beginning to the campaign for Cornwall City Councilor Bernadette Clement. She’s been part of a council this term that has attacked family ice rinks at Christmas and made National news again for getting jiggy with worm and lemonde selling kids. Her ridingContinue Reading
If money talks Stephen Harper will have another majority government. Of course when you make the rules it’s expected that you get good results. Right now Mr. Harper set the rules that they benefit himself and his party and it just might work. Justin Trudeau, if an electionContinue Reading
Oh Canada! Tomorrow is July 1st. Sadly you won’t see CFN participating in our local event that is about to be rained out (bad karma thanks to Guy) as our MP has hijacked Canada Festivities in our city. Canada Day, above all days, should be inclusive and community building.Continue Reading
Well one thing is becoming clearer. It really doesn’t appear that Bernadette Clement wants to be a city councilor in Cornwall? She has attempted to run for upper political office or hope to become a judge each election. Last night the local Liberal riding went through the charade of aContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – Bernadette Clement is hoping to spring board from Cornwall City Council and run again for the Federal Grits as MP against incumbent Guy Lauzon. It makes sense. Her council is in disarray and dysfunctional. Lauzon has no debating skills and his track record is full of politicalContinue Reading
CFN – Here in Cornwall Bernadette Clement announced that she will be attempting to be the candidate for MP in the 2015 election. There’s been a lot of chatter, but one question that keeps coming up is whether an Independent candidate could win and whether more should run? As someContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – Bernadette Clement is taking another crack at SD&SG MP Guy Lauzon in the upcoming election. She has to win the nomination, but unless some surprise candidate drops in she should be facing another round. In the last election she fared poorly finishing far behind Lauzon, andContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – My phone started ringing far too early this morning. It was surreal, but I live in surreal times in a surreal community. I first have to shoot down and dispel the rumor. I will categorically not be the NDP candidate for this riding in the upcomingContinue Reading
CORNWALL Ontario – The Seaway News editor Todd Lihou was all goo goo over praise given to the paper along with The Freeholder and Cornwall Newswatch. He doesn’t get why they get that praise. During the budget process, of which Ms Clement is the chair, the city has been givenContinue Reading

CFN – I accidentally took this weekend off. I really did. It was odd. It was kinda wonderful. My critters were happy. My girl friend was happy. I was even kinda happy, or at least a bit rested. I napped. I watched Nashville on Netflix. I chattedContinue Reading
