It’s Time Boxcar Bobby Rolled on Down the Line

The following article will be a compilation of a number of articles, editorials, letters, etc. that have appeared both on my former website QuesnelCaribooSentinel.com and this current site. The primary purpose is to make voters aware of all the shenanigans surrounding both Mayor Bob Simpson and the bulk of his city councillors who have proven over and over that they’re little more than lackeys of the mayor and incapable of independent thought and feeling.

It’s critical for the city of Quesnel to get rid of Bob Simpson so it can move ahead in the coming years and regain all the ground (and freedoms) that it has lost during Simpson’s tenure. It’s hoped that voters in the city have witnessed (and suffered) in enough ways over the past three years that they’ll realize that some serious changes have to take place in order to restore some semblance of harmony and stability in the community.

The one key event that took place back in the summer of 2020, while the Scamdemic, the mandates, masks and jabs were beginning to permeate the minds of everyone, was the theft by Mayor Bob Simpson and the majority of city councillors of the iconic Quesnel Gold Pan City sign that once stood atop the mound at the junction of Hwy 97 and Hwy 26.

In an earlier article on this issue which I had published back on July 23, 2020 titled, “Like a Thief in the Night: Quesnel Mayor Simpson Removes Controversial Gold Pan City Sign on Stormy Night”, which is no longer available on the net, I had stated, “In the midst of one of the more dramatic lightning and thunder storms to pass over the City of Quesnel this year, Mayor Bob Simpson, late in the day, on Tuesday, July 21st, 2020 sent out a city work crew that, like a thief in the night, furtively removed the controversial Quesnel Gold Pan City sign from its original location at the intersection of Hwy 97 and the Barkerville Hwy and set it up next to the train station downtown. Such audacity on the part of the city, given all the recent public discussions, petitions, heated arguments, poll results, intimidation toward city councillors opposed to the move, letters to the editor and even a public Protest Rally to boot, begs the question as to what Quesnel’s Mayor and Council were thinking when they pulled off this sly and unnecessary stunt.” 


The sign had stood there since 1987 and was actually a result of the efforts by current city Councillor Ron Paull now running for the Mayor’s seat on October 15th (tomorrow).

And so the gold pan sign has been sitting for the past two years plus along the train tracks. The city managed to finally clean it up and repaint it but that didn’t seem to help matters much and so in order to spend more of the taxpayer’s money the city decided to repaint the sign a second time! That project entailed setting up a complete scaffold and netting around the whole structure (a second time).

At the time I remarked in an Editorial titled “Welcome to Bobville”, “Will Mayor Bob Simpson change the name of Quesnel to Bobville in order to celebrate the legendary civic leader who has been behind all these frivolous, ego-bound, money-wasting endeavours over the past couple of years? God only knows but by the look of things it shouldn’t be too long before we witness the mayor’s next brain wave for the Gold Pan City.”

The thing that really irked local citizens was not only the manner in which the sign was removed but the ugliness of the place where it was relocated as is quite evident from the image below.

Train station across from LeBourdais Park, Quesnel, B.C.

The controversy continued and one result was the meme that I created based upon an album cover of singer/songwriter Boxcar Willie. Willie now morphed into Boxcar Bobbie.

It wasn’t bad enough that Quesnel Mayor Bob Simpson and the bulk of his gang of sycophantic city councillors had the audacity to steal the Gold Pan City sign off the intersection of Hwy 97 and Hwy 26 (Barkerville Hwy) back in 2020. Finding little else to do besides drain the taxpayer’s pocket books with one ridiculous initiative after another now the Mayor has decided to go on full attack against the citizens of Quesnel who are opposed to all the brutal and deadly decisions being implemented by the BC NDP government in response to the greatest scam the world has ever experienced in recorded history – the covertly manufactured Covid-19 deception of 2020.


In Quesnel’s City Council News for September 21, 2021 Mayor Simpson has penned one of his more scathing and deceptive diatribes, aimed at discrediting all the good efforts of intelligent, conscientious people in and around the city who’ve come to fully realize – after over a year and a half of government fear, misinformation, unnecessary lockdowns, mandated mask wearing, social distancing and, of late, forced jabs of untested, rat killing, experimental “vaccinations” now being manipulated in a myriad number of ways by all the political parties in the province and the mainstream in order to reduced everyone to a mental state akin to that of a genetically-modified turnip and thus more easily enslaved to the New World Order’s agenda for planet – that their governments at every level are no longer acting in the best interests of the people. The deluded, myopic and misinformed Mayor titled his attack “Responsible Freedom” when it truth he ought to have called it “IRRESPONSIBLE SLAVERY FOR THE MASSES!”


Of course the erudite-challenged social delinquent who scribbled out this poison-pen proclamation to the proletariats of Quesnel immediately dredged up the usual weaponized terms that every would-be dictator enlists in order to denigrate, disparage, slander and malign whomever they wish to destroy. “Anarchy”, “mob rule”, “might is right” all immediately spring forth from the fickle fingertips of Mayor Simpson in order to set the tone for his first gut shot wherein he states:


“That’s why these so-called ‘freedom rallies’ make no sense, especially in the middle of a global pandemic. The “freedom” that this minority is calling for is the freedom of anarchy: the freedom to make up their own rules independent of science, common sense, and good government.”


He then goes on to say, “The irony today is that the anti-vax and anti-passport protesters have nothing to fear from the government they are trying to get us all to be afraid of, because their freedom to protest is protected by law.”


It is at this juncture in Mayor Simpson’s litany of lies and sophistry that I have to stop and say to Bolshevik Bob, in a vernacular that most people in the Cariboo are very familiar with, “Bullshit!”. Your audacity to try and tell others that the protesters are “protected by law” is as simple-minded, false and absurd as it is to tell Canadians that their right to freedom of speech is also “protected by law”. Nothing could be further from the truth. The msm and all levels of government from the federal down to the provincial, municipal and regional are ALL guilty of carry out a witch-hunt against the normal people and have been doing so ever since they started down their dead-end road to mass inoculation of the whole human race. Incitement comes to mind and we see it every time some lousy, pin-head politician has the chutzpah to attack those who want to retain their God-given rights and sovereignty over their own bodies. And you Mayor Simpson are a prime example of what I’m talking about.


Further to the above fatuous frothings you carry on like a good foot soldier for the Fauci/Gates/WHO/CNC criminal cartel by pouring out more of your puerile, petrol-soaked lies and ongoing fear-mongering and hate-generating vilification, all designed to exacerbate what you’ve already attempted to cover up and deny – the Inquisitional attitude toward the “‘freedom’ protesters” who you claim are, “creating unnecessary confusion and disharmony at a time when we all need to be more trusting of our democratically elected government and its public health officers.” Nothing like a good bonfire to get rid of all those heretical protesters eh Bob?


Having betrayed the local citizens who are attempting to alert a dumbed-down public and judged them as being nothing but uninformed conspiracy theorists you conclude your hit piece with the same old worn-out status quo rhetoric in one last gesture of obeisance to your misinformed masters who you appear willing to collude with. 


Follow all the rules and mandates that have proven ineffective and remember to remember:


“That the significant spike in severe cases of COVID currently threatening our health care system and most vulnerable citizens is made up of primarily unvaccinated people should be sufficient evidence that the vaccinations are providing protection against this virus. We just need more people vaccinated.”


Yet another fabricated LIE Bob meant to deceive the public when in truth it’s primarily those who have been taking the jab who are still getting the annual flu (now magically having morphed into Covid-19) and proving itself to be ineffective. But of course we can’t have the general public realize this and so you do your damnedest to convince Quesnel residents to accept that it’s those terrible “anarchist” anti-vaxers and “unvaccinated” people who are responsible for it all and that we should “trust” government and trust the pseudo-science that emanates forth from un-doctors Gates & Fauci and the CDC and the 3-stooges in our own provincial NDP government – Horgan and Henry and Hix.


To conclude, what can one say about Mayor Bob Simpson’s hate-filled rant against the freedom rally folks of Quesnel that hasn’t already been said about Preparation-H? Not much.

I have been saying this for decades and it still holds true that those politicians who would rather indenture their cities and their taxpaying citizens to the bankers than face the realities of the times are, I suggest, not the ones who we need at the helm of our civic ships of state as we attempt to sail on through these trying, tempestuous waters we’re now in the midst of.

We need men and women of foresight and practicality; leaders who understand that not everyone has the ability to always pay, pay, pay for whatever little or big “service” that the Mayor and Council may deem of importance to the city.

That is why we need a new Mayor who we can count on to oversee spending and there’s only one choice when it comes to that and the person to elect on October 15th, 2022 is Ron Paull.

We need people in all levels of government who have a firm grasp of the political realities of the day and who will, when required, have the intestinal fortitude to admit when they have either overstepped the bounds of common sense or, should they realize and understand that previous decisions of council, taken during brighter periods of economic stability, are now no longer tenable or advisable, have the courage to speak up and do their best to alter the city’s course for the betterment and security of all its members.

But… (and there’s always a ‘but’ when it comes to the process we call democracy) we cannot, and should not, ever take for granted that the political leaders themselves are the sole recipients of the power that we, the people, bestow upon them every three years. While it may be comforting to think that we can download our personal responsibilities on to those we elect to lead us and then, should they not meet our expectations, rise up in indignation and outrage there is another component of the process that must be stressed again and again. That is the responsibility of all capable members of a community to fulfill their duty first and foremost and that means exercising their responsibility to get out of their armchairs and VOTE!

While it is the duty of the media to try and present as much information on the issues as possible and while it is the duty of those who wish to represent their fellow citizens to be honest and forthright in their campaign promises, the ultimate duty rests on the voters to do their due diligence and show up at the voting booth.

The next four years for Quesnel are in all likelihood going to be more of the same when it comes to facing the critical problems that municipalities everywhere are being challenged to address: deteriorating infrastructure; faltering and undependable sources of revenue be they corporate or those often coming from provincial and federal sources; the growing disparity between the rich and the impoverished; diminishing finite resources; the cancerous growth and systemic dangers posed by government bureaucracy that tends to increase with each passing year and make decision making at all levels more onerous, dictatorial, frustrating and complex; environmental challenges that tax both our individual and collective survival yet never seem to addressed and resolved; and last but not least the problems posed by the growing mass of homeless people and all the attendant issues that arise from this including the illicit drug trade now killing so many of our youth.

How we deal with these concerns depends upon how seriously we take them and our hard-earned franchise and whether or not we are willing to get off our collective ass and show up at the polling stations to register our personal mandates for resolution to these demanding issues. The ball is now in the court of the people. May the best people for the job be successful and good luck to all who have had the willingness to offer themselves for civic duty. Saturday, October 15th, 2022 is the day. Get out and Vote!

No Retreat, No Surrender! Quesnel Civic Elections 2022

Quesnel Civic Elections:
A Return to Normal and a Time for Healing

The last three years on planet Earth were a precursor to what will be coming down the track for humanity as a whole if things generally don’t take a radical turn back to square one, i.e. 2019.

This is not to suggest that everything was hunky dory then but, by comparison to today, it was a virtual paradise.

When the global power elite decided to go on an open attack with their Covid-1984 card they’d had up their serpentine sleeve for some years – a brutal bushwhack encompassing every nation in the world – the pre-meditated ambush took the general population by surprise and the resulting destruction to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness has not abated since.

The Cariboo region of central British Columbia, along with every level of government within it, was no exception and any effort today to try and ‘mask’ the matter and the negative effects upon the way of life that we previously enjoyed won’t serve the greater good of local citizens or mitigate the problems that it has created in our lives. The time for radical change is NOW! Another four years of this madness is unacceptable for anyone who respects and wishes to retain their sovereignty and their safety.

That said it’s imperative those now running for office in the upcoming civil elections address this issue during the campaigning and not try to side-line it with all sorts of minor issues like pot-holes in the streets, housing problems, by-passes that have been on the back burner for the past 50 years and numerous other local concerns that any intelligent tax-paying person would assume ought to be addressed.

Quesnel needs a Mayor and Councillors who are truly hipped to what the hell’s been going on world-wide and, should they gain the confidence of the voting public, won’t turn a blind eye to the threat that these past three years have subtlety imposed upon the city.

The health and well-being of the citizens (mentally/physically and economically), must take priority over all these other non-critical issues. To neglect this will only continue to weaken and disenfranchise the citizenry and perpetuate the growing fear and anxiety that so many people now feel when it comes to political matters and the retention of our collective sovereignty.

Above all else though the current Mayor of Quesnel, Bob Simpson, MUST GO!

It’s beyond high time that we elect a new Captain to pilot the Gold Pan City’s ship over the troubled waters that Quesnel has been through over the past three years and will continue to face in the years ahead. The last thing we need at this point in Quesnel’s civic life is an arrogant, kowtowing, ass-kissing, ego-bound, tyrannical commissar who’s unwilling to listen to the voice of the common folks. We should have realized this when the issue of his theft of the Gold Pan City sign at the intersection of Hwy. 97 and Hwy. 26 (Barkerville Hwy) occurred back in ???

The manner in which Bob Simpson and the majority of his lackey Councillors harassed and intimidated Councillor Ron Paull over the theft of the Gold Pan City sign and it’s relocation to the rail yard in downtown Quesnel was a prime example of the ‘arrogance of power’ that currently possesses the majority of today’s City Council. This is an issue that has to addressed and rectified if the city is to move ahead in a harmonious way in the times ahead.

Judging from what the corporate media (Black Press) is saying and what is appearing on social media it looks like there will be a number of new candidates running for office this election. That is a good thing provided that their platforms offer the citizens viable alternatives to what the current crew of burgher brains have offered up over the past three years and longer.

As Editor and Publisher of the Cariboo Sentinel I would extend a hearty welcome to them all and if anyone wishes to present their platform online via this site the invitation stands. I am willing to do interviews and advertising gratis. Just contact me at the following email address: editorcs@nym.hush.com

Responsible Slavery: A Critique of Mayor Bob Simpson’s Scathing Attack Upon Quesnel’s Freedom Rallies

The Cariboo Sentinel

It wasn’t bad enough that Quesnel Mayor Bob Simpson and the bulk of his gang of sycophantic city councillors had the audacity to steal the Gold Pan City sign off the intersection of Hwy 97 and Hwy 26 (Barkerville Hwy) back in 2020. Finding little else to do besides drain the taxpayer’s pocket books with one ridiculous initiative after another now the Mayor has decided to go on full attack against the citizens of Quesnel who are opposed to all the brutal and deadly decisions being implemented by the BC NDP government in response to the greatest scam the world has ever experienced in recorded history – the covertly manufactured Covid-19 deception of 2020.

In Quesnel’s City Council News for September 21, 2021 Mayor Simpson has penned one of his more scathing and deceptive diatribes, aimed at discrediting all the good efforts of intelligent, conscientious people in and around the city who’ve come to fully realize – after over a year and a half of government fear, misinformation, unnecessary lockdowns, mandated mask wearing, social distancing and, of late, forced jabs of untested, rat killing, experimental “vaccinations” now being manipulated in a myriad number of ways by all the political parties in the province and the mainstream in order to reduced everyone to a mental state akin to that of a genetically-modified turnip and thus more easily enslaved to the New World Order’s agenda for planet – that their governments at every level are no longer acting in the best interests of the people. The deluded, myopic and misinformed Mayor titled his attack “Responsible Freedom” when it truth he ought to have called it “IRRESPONSIBLE SLAVERY FOR THE MASSES!”

Of course the erudite-challenged social delinquent who scribbled out this poison-pen proclamation to the proletariats of Quesnel immediately dredged up the usual weaponized terms that every would-be dictator enlists in order to denigrate, disparage, slander and malign whomever they wish to destroy. “Anarchy”, “mob rule”, “might is right” all immediately spring forth from the fickle fingertips of Mayor Simpson in order to set the tone for his first gut shot wherein he states:

“That’s why these so-called ‘freedom rallies’ make no sense, especially in the middle of a global pandemic. The “freedom” that this minority is calling for is the freedom of anarchy: the freedom to make up their own rules independent of science, common sense, and good government.”

Having pronounced judgement on the anarcho “counter-revolutionaries” Quesnel’s Bolshevik Commissar Mayor then employs as much double talk as he can muster in his defence of Canada’s “big business” interests that have dominated this perverse, communist narrative since its inception in 2020 by making the following convoluted comment: 

“Yes, good government. The inherent mistrust of “big government” in the sloganeering of these “freedom” groups is dangerous and misleading. I worked behind the iron curtain in Soviet controlled countries during the late 1970s and saw first-hand what an unelected, dictatorial government can do to those who protest against it.”

He then goes on to say, “The irony today is that the anti-vax and anti-passport protesters have nothing to fear from the government they are trying to get us all to be afraid of, because their freedom to protest is protected by law.”

It’s at this juncture in Mayor Simpson’s litany of lies and sophistry that I have to stop and say to  Bolshevik Bob, in a vernacular that most people in the Cariboo are very familiar with, “Bullshit!”.
