A Final Goodbye

October 11, 2024 • 5 mins
Hi, I’m Peter Shurman. No big baritone announcer today, no theme song today either. Just me. I’m here to give you a piece of news. The Shurman Report began in early August with gusto. I decided to do the show daily on four video platforms plus release the audio as a podcast immediately afterward every day. I’m proud of the work that went into it because we have fulfilled that dream…we’ve even generated a reasonably sized audience, ...

Peter’s Views on Middle East Agitation Locally; Andy Stinton with Peter on Politicians’ Pay

October 7, 2024 • 35 mins
Andy Stinton with us today…it’s a minor push-and-shove as usual but that’s because he always comes with topics ready-to-eat. Today….do we pay politicians enough to get good people? Wait and listen to what we think Why doesn’t Pierre Poilievre have a platform? I keep telling Andy why but he’s not buying it. And do we vote parties in when election time comes around or toss them out. Good discussion. Before we do any of that I’ll have...

October 1, 2024 • 37 mins
Peter editorializes about Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly speaking to the UN. She uses her podium to slam Israel for “being against a Palestinian state…sound bass-ackwards to me; Melanie Joly cites the Charter of Rights and Freedoms to justify selective use of our basic freedoms on a positive and negative basis…why does she allude so clearly to her own political persuasion? Kamala Harris repeatedly affirms how she would put e...

Liberals want Palestinian State; Libs & Cons mix it up in Parliament; Andy Stinton and Peter on EVs & Canucks

September 25, 2024 • 35 mins
A group of Liberal Members of Parliament have approached the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee with the idea of negotiating with the Palestinians with a view to creating a Palestinian state. These must be incredibly dense people. How many times have you been told a "two-state' solution is unacceptable...and despite that, they'd negotiate with whomever represents Palestinians and not Israel. It's amazing to see all of the h...

That shows the strength concervatism is gaining even in what some would have considered a forever unattainable riding. In Quebec, Emard-Lasalle-Verdun was in contention....

The big Canadian news today is that people are voting in Central Montreal and Central Winnipeg to pick new Members of Parliament. The Montreal seat was Liberal and once held by Prime Minister Paul Martin. Has that changed?  In Winnipeg, a so-called safe seat for the NDP is up for grabs. The loss of that seat would be painful for newly free (from any support agreement) Jagmeet Singh. The results will likely not be known until later ...
