After a week of Justin Trudeau and his Liberal government insulting India, the government of Narendra Modi has struck back.

So the night before a young man was about to be acclaimed a candidate in a provincial nomination race I invited him on my radio show. I had never met the man but I had stuck up for him before. In fact, if you were to ask Jeremy Roberts, no single person in the media did more to raise the issue of voting irregularities in the Ottawa West-Nepean PC nomination than me.
So I invited him in to speak with me about the old nomination being overturned and him being acclaimed. I felt it was important to at least remind listeners why the party re-opened the nomination and allowed Jeremy to run again. He disagreed.
Like so many young politicians with no life experience he decided that being on message track and not acting like a human being was the way to go. It wasn't. I wanted to re-cap the past and move on to the future. I've been an ardent critic of the Ontario Liberals and the Liberal MP that Jeremy will be up against in particular.
I cut the interview short and showed Jeremy the door because I am tired of politicians that want to use the airwaves to sell something but never answer simple questions. If that is what you want I can set you up with the ad department and you can buy an ad.
This is an example of how a politician should never handle an interview and a warning to the rest, if you want to come on the air, answer my damned questions.

BTN Bites - How politicians should never handle an interview

Days after warning young voters to cast  ballot or old white people will determine the election, Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne offered voters everything under the sun in a desperate throne speech.

The Angus Reid Institute poll shows millennial voters fleeing Trudeau's Liberals. If an election were held today, the Conservatives would win a majority.

Justin Trdueau's decision to sneak through the fact that talks with the premiers on equalization were off isn't sitting well out west. Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe had proposed a number of changes to the system that he feels does not benefit his province. Moe and other premiers were supposed to meet with Trudeau and have discussions in the spring. Now those talks are off and the system that helps Quebec and the Maritime provinces stays in place. That also happens to be the area the Liberals have their power base.
The move has generated outrage in Western Canada and former Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall says Western alienation is on the rise under Trudeau.

On Wednesday night's show, hours before Amanda Simard announced she would leave the PC Party to sit as an independent, I was explaining what was happening.

Then Mary called in.
A Francophone woman who lives in Simard's riding, Mary was not impressed.
I think she will be less impressed today after the announcement.
