This story is clearly false.
A community in Quebec's Far North is calling for outside help to free about a dozen killer whales trapped under a vast stretch of sea ice.
And then, there's this;
One woman who made the journey to the gap in the ice said even a curious polar bear approached the hole amid the commotion.
They must take us for fools.
Update - SDA gets results!
(h/t Canuck Jack)











Are they actually trapped, or did they make the hole themselves? How did a pod of whales manage to swim under such a vast sheet of ice for so long before finding the only hole available for miles? Come on, they're whales, they live in these conditions year round, every year! You're trying to tell me they can somehow get "stuck" under a vast sheet of ice? My guess is these whales are doing the whale version of an "ice fishing" vacation!
So let me get this straight, the ice ISN'T gone, AND they shot a polar bear for good measure. Has anyone contacted the CBC or Chief Spence to find how this can be tied to Harper?
But but, now we won't have a Disney or another insipid Hollywierd movie called "Helping Free Willie" . Better yet make a movie about the fools and media sucks that waste time and money over a natural happening in the ocean, that covers 72% of this planet, and call it "March of the Idiots", narrated by the idiot Morgan Freeman starring the idiot Algore with his sidekick Suzoookie as. Nature is a mean beast, lefties just can't handle the truth to quote Jack.
Global warming is happening so fast. Yesterday they were 25 miles from open water. Today that all melted. Holy crap! Grab your life vest Brenda, it just a matter of time!
Actually, I think the real story here is that a local blogger made a video and put it on youtube (linked by the G&M). Then the lamestream media picked it up and decided to put some spin on it. What we need the blogger to do is add a little text to the video about why he thinks the whales were there to begin with - and we catch the MSM in another lie.
Whales probably went off to the Maldives to eat all the submerged villagers.
I saw this movie last year. Drew Barrymore was cute as a granola eating greenie in touch with the whales emotions. Did a Russian ship help out this time?
Canadian Ice,
Destroying Whales?
This is a direct result of Canada's refusing to join the Kyoto Protocol.
Environmentalist need to force Canadians to fork over billions in order to stop Catastrophic Climate Change and Global Warming.

Wow, not only can Kate dominate the world dog show circuit, she can control sea ice!
Well if the you believe that George Bush was responsible for Katrina it makes sense....
Where the hell is the Sea Shepherd when you need it?
I watched this story on the National last night at 9:00P.M. Eastern. Then I wake up this morning to read in the Globe that the ice gets blown and the whales are free. To get to print, this story would have been composed and submitted by 12:00 midnight. This has to be a miracle as The Lord works in mysterious ways.
I saved them. Please send me money.
Flash.....the whales just swam away thus denying the CBC a reason to create a mini series blaming Harper for this excess ice.
Mother Nature sucks when it's not going your way.
One woman who made the journey to the gap in the ice noticed a curious polar bear approaching the hole amid the commotion.

Watching a Polar Bear catch a 9,000 pound,
21 foot long Killer Whale would have made a fantastic video.
I thought they were fishing for polar bears.
Best comment under the Globe & Mail article by Jimmy_K2:
"Good news if you're a whale, not so much if you're a seal."
The ice moved ... to Arizona.
NOAA
THERE IS A VERY GOOD POSSIBILITY OF HAVING SUB-FREEZING
TEMPERATURES FOR FOUR CONSECUTIVE NIGHTS...AND POSSIBLY EVEN
FIVE DEPENDING ON HOW THINGS PLAY OUT NEXT TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY. THIS COLD SNAP WILL BE NEARLY UNPRECEDENTED IN THE
PAST 30 YEARS. THE LAST TIME THE PHOENIX AREA SAW FOUR
CONSECUTIVE DAYS OF 32 OR LOWER WAS IN LATE DECEMBER 1988. THE
COLD SNAP AROUND NEW YEAR/S 2011 NETTED THREE CONSECUTIVE DAYS
OF 32 OR LOWER FOR PHOENIX.
Okay now we've seen everything.
The real reason the "Freedom for yer Willie" set, is that Al Gore sold out his TV station for buku bucks and turned a quarter billion dollar profit; so now AGW has been cancelled.
Meanwhile, the ice has found a better use at NHL rinks throughout North America, to be freshly polished by the Zamboni leasing contract just signed Chief Spends Too Much of "Ate-a-Whopper-Scam".
Finally, this was of course was all a Jewish conspiracy, since Benjamin Netanyahu stole our Canadian winter for his recent snowball fight, which certainly beats incoming missiles.

There I think I've hit all the bases, except the "Obama-Nation" attempting to 'order' gun control; which is pretty useless when polar bears go Orca hunting.

Pete at 9:50:
This happens routinely in the Arctic. The whales have open water and the ice gradually closes in between them and the open sea. Drifting ice and or rapidly freezing temperatures can cause this. Suddenly the whales are trapped. Below is an article about trapped beluga whales in Russia.

yeah, that global warming is so severe it snowed in Israel yesterday.

It has been a whacky two months weather-wise. The coldest December in Moscow since 1938, deaths in India last week due to cold weather, rain and snow in Israel. Meanwhile there are temperatures in the mid 40s Celsius in Australia.
Regarding the curious polar bear, I think an Orca would make a quick lunch of any polar bear who stuck his head over the edge of the hole. Orcas work in teams and are very smart.
I bet Israelis miss the ice caps too while playing snow ball game on Golan Heights:

I take full credit for rescuing the orcas.
Yesterday,hearing of the plight of these poor animals,I prayed:"oh Gaia, god of all things politically correct, save the whales from this icy disaster".
Obviously,she heard and responded.
No, I don't want adulation ,won't even hear of the Order of Canada, just send money in my name to the Theresa Spence Hunger Strike fund.
In case you haven't seen this one:
"It's all over....but the chewing"...

Hold on, suddenly we care about Orca's?
A pack (ultimate) predator so incredibly & efficiently dangerous that Great White Sharks flee from them like a mouse that's seen a hungry tom cat?
I thought that would place them on par with dead white males or something.
Thanks for the laugh Mike!
I like the inversion .... but basically we have just been subjected to another example of what the Globe&Mail considers publishing material.
That piece of "writing" was pure crap.
The thing that got me was the talking heads on ALL ( ALL !! ) the news outlets have proven once again that they don't READ what's put in front of them.
ALL of them read that the whales were trapped UNDER THE ICE. Apparently not one broadcaster said to his producers, ""Umm .... can we change this to IN the ice. If they were trapped UNDER the damn ICE they'd be so much frozen whale meat by now. They BREATH AIR. If they were trapped UND .... Oh never mind.""
I know. A simple point but this example should prove that anybody who listens to the lamestream media and believes the nonsense that they shovel at us day after day are either delusional or retarded.
Aint it the truth, Dave. I remember one talking head on the TV 'News' talking about a solar flare ejecting material from the Sun at a velocity of 3 MILLION miles per second. I guess no one told him that 186,000 miles per second isn't just a good idea, it's the law. If they can't get little things right, why should I trust them on big things?
