Jackie's Birthday Party

[August1991]

Here's the video:

Paul Desmarais had a huge, temporary "tent" built beside his mansion in northern Quebec to celebrate his wife's birthday on 30 August 2011.

You will see Charest, Chretien, Mulroney, Bush Snr, Lucien Bouchard, Adrienne Clarkson, assorted WAGs, but there's no Stephen Harper. Nor did I see Paul Martin (although I find it hard to believe that he wasn't invited.)

Several points

The absurd extravagance of this party somehow reminds me of Emperor Bokassa or Vatel. But fer gawdsakes, this is the 21st century. It all seems so tacky.

Socialism (Quebec Inc etc) ultimately becomes corporatism. When the State concentrates power and decides, some people will gravitate near the State.

I still wonder what kind of contact Stephen Harper has with Paul Desmarais.

Paul's bro. is married to Chretien's daughter and Paul is also a member of the Bilderberg Group, which explains alot.

Paul Snr's son is married to Jean's daughter, I think. (Bilderberg? I have no time for such nonsense.)

I think rather that Great-West Life is the insurer of federal government employees, and Paul Desmarais owns/controls Great-West Life.

Make no mistake. Like Danny Williams, Pierre Peladeau and Ted Rogers (to name a few), Paul Desmarais made his money through the power of the State.

Leftists want the State to do good, and protect the weak. Yet, giving more power to the State is an invitation to abuse. Politicians like Joey Smallwood, Jean Chretien, Peter Lougheed, Mike Harris, Brian Mulroney, Roy Romanow, Bob Rae eventually do deals.

We never saw Paul Martin/WAG in the video - such disrespect. Was Harper's wife at the Sagard party incognito too? That seems Harper's MO when dealing with Quebec.

And I still wonder whether Stephen Harper has ever met Paul Desmarais. I simply cannot believe that Desmarais has never tried to contact Harper. So, I guess my question now is how Harper responded to Desmarais.

No time for Bildeberg, but you've been on the hunt for the Harper-Desmarais connection for years.

[Topaz]

I do remember Desmarais sr or jr, went to China with Mulroney since they own Power Corp. which I think had some connection to the big dam in China and I also think, they went to China again with Harper this last time. I'm sure he received a invitation to go to the party it would depend on the Mrs. and if Harper was comfortable with PC's and Liberals. BTW, probably most of the people in that room has been to a Bilderberg meeting or is a member, no nonsense, just fact.

A party for elitists, of course harper would not be there. IMO You can hate on harper all you want ,but he will never run with that group.

He's already attended their meetings, and again I don't HATE Harper, I don't think he makes a good PM for ALL of Canada.

[Smallc]

No, you hate Harper.

[Fletch 27]

No, but clearly he does for the Majority!

My error: the party was in August 2008, not 2011.
