Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Less than Muslim terrorists?
I’ll bet ‘grasshopper’ Kwai Chang Caine would’ve kicked Leo’s mangy butt. Then there was his Master! – An aging, plump, blind guy who could dodge dozens of spears that were thrown (almost simultaneously) directly at him.
Perhaps something got lost in the translation when Kung Fu migrated from China to India.
aminals are very unpredictable, some day those city retards will learn this
and a 400 lbs lion could carry an 800 lbs city slicker in it’s mouth like a rage doll
If you act like an injured animal in front of a predator you should expect to get your ass chewed.
What morons! One female idiot, who ought to reconsider her relationship with other members of the animal kingdom, and two or three male idiots, who seem never to have given the matter any thought at all.
The lion was just trying to do its part to stop Global Warming. The polar bear scene from An Inconvenient Truth really broke him up and it was only a matter of time before he snapped.
Astoundingly Stupid
These creatures are Nature’s high tech killing machines and as such should be respected for their beauty.
Not supposedly tamed or messed with by stupid people with distorted egos.
They belong where they were hard-wired to be…namely the Wild.
All your martial artists are now mine…. the lion.
Reminds one of the pink panther episode after being bitten and told that his dog did not bite,but that’s not my dog.
Simon:
I think your reference to “distorted egos” clarifies the matter nicely. More than mere stupidity is involved, at least for the woman.
…when do they do the African Crocodile part?
Brings to mind the ‘lets go to the dump and feed the cute bears’ crowd. Next thing you know someone loses an appendage and the township (taxpayer is responsible because they didn’t have high enough fences.
Pretty impressive! The lion, that is. He barely seemed to touch the woman, and his attack lasted all of 2 seconds, yet she had four broken ribs and a punctured lung! Imagine what he could do if given five or six seconds!
The trainer had better rethink his relationship with that lion, as it’s apparent to me, but maybe not to him, that he has only as much control as the lion feels like giving him.
Think I’ll stick to house cats.
The lion broke four of her ribs -playing-. Didn’t even have its mouth open, they said. Another Darwin Award candidate.
When I went to the zoo I was REAL glad there was a biiiig fence between me and the lions, tigers and bears. Oh my yes. I remember the panther especially showed a marked tendency to charge when small children ran by the cage.
That thing was outside with me, I want a big bore double rifle, and two guys beside me with the same thing. Lions are why double rifles were invented in the first place, you’ve got a thunderbolt in reserve if you hit him square with the first one and he shrugs it off. Lions are known to do that from time to time. Also why Bwana the Great White Hunter always had a retinue of faithful retainers. They weren’t just there to carry the tea service.
This is no surprise either. I’ve noticed that dogs in the park will ALWAYS come over to investigate the strange humans doing the crazy, unhumanlike Kung Fu movements. And by investigate, I mean jump up and try to stick the big wet dog nose in your ear. Sometimes cats and even squirrels will too.
If a freaky squirrel will sit still and watch the human giants do Tai Chi from like five feet away, what’s a three year old full-of-beans lion going to do? No brainer, right?
This is why we have Photoshop, all you artsy types out there. To create pictures that would be remarkably stupid to stage.

Let me guess, all from Tranna.
(Bowmanville, well I guess I answered my own question…)
The article said the lady who does the goofy peacock strut broke four ribs from THAT?? I hope she never plays ball hockey. Oh wait, she’s 54 and she’s Indian with a Hindi name… perhaps she doesn’t drink milk… she probably already has osteoporosis.
I rather enjoyed the bit where the “trainer” (snort) said “No”.
I know how well that works with my six and a half pound cat.
Anyone ever see a tiger in the wild. Truly majestic.
I was going to leave my post at that, but my eyes wandered up to the post right above post a comment, and inspired the following:
Anyone ever see an idiot write with freedom from the bondage of knowlege. Truly “Brad from Waterloo”-esque.
Indian martial arts are amongst the oldest in the world- All the major East Asian martial arts originate from what was originally a blend of Indian and Chinese martial arts. The goofy peacock strut is, shockingly, based on a peacock. The particular kind of martial art she is practicing is based on animal poses. Not much in an age of guns, but with the refinement its gone through over the ages, she could make you regret those words in a couple of seconds.
But lets leave that out of the picture.
“I hope she never plays ball hockey. Oh wait, she’s 54 and she’s Indian with a Hindi name… perhaps she doesn’t drink milk… she probably already has osteoporosis.”
What does this have to do with anything? At all? On the surface, it looks like you re engaging in stereotyping. But then, given your comment, you would have to be excused because you probably dont have the intellectual capacity to understand what stereotyping is.
Indians, especially Hindus, not drinking milk is perhaps the funniest thing I have heard. The Cow wasnt always sacred – Hindus once consumed beef. But if you have ever had Indian food, you will notice the copious amounts of milk products used in making them. Indians have alway been big on milk and yoghurt – still are. Of course when you eat cows and want their milk, it becomes problematic when there arent enough cows. And nothing quite inspires obedience like a religious decree.
Then, again, I can hardly have expected you to know this. Rudimentary knowledge seems to have bypassed you altogether.
“Those people” firmly believe if you are peaceful, appeasing and mean no one any harm then no one will ever attack you.
It does not work with lions.
It does not work with terrorists from a medieval cult.
Face it liberals.
There were people giggling over pictures of the polar bear cub in Germany; he was chewing on the keepers leg.
Just wait until he finishes growing and he won’t just chew on the keepers leg and they end up having to put him down because he’s too dangerous.
Too many stupid people who can’t tell the difference between kids’ cartoons and reality get animals. For example a lot of good horses are put down because the owners thought it was so cute when, as a colt, it would jump up and paw at them with its front feet. Then someone gets severely injured because it continues to jump up and paw when its fully grown.
Another idiotic move is scratching young bulls on the ears. The fully grown bull doesn’t care that you’re just a puny human, it wants its ears scratched. So here comes 500 lbs of skull crashing in on you begging for scratching.
Sput, your faux outrage is typical of everything we’ve come to expect from you. Stereotyping? How about, in India they don’t usually teach kung fu to chicks, so she’s probably not the real deal. My money says she learned it in Canada, where things aren’t so traditional.
Any martial artist worth the name maintains what we call “situational awareness”. As in, you notice the charging lion before it breaks your ribs. It may break them anyway, but at least you roll with the hit a little.
Poseurs on the other hand focus on looking good for the camera and go down like a sack of sand when they get hit.
Darwin Award nominee for sure.
Yeah,
I’m thinking the “bird” move she did just before the attack wasn’t the best one to do with “kitty” watching.
Ouch.
Looked like it hurt.
