The socialist cabal that currently runs City Hall in Vancouver declared “Meatless Mondays”. Then something strange happened. The following posting on a popular Vancouver Facebook page may have helped the butcher to increase sales:
URGENT!!: The West Broadway Meat Co. plans to butcher a water buffalo at their store at 1 pm TODAY, Monday June 10th – they are inviting the public to watch the dismemberment of a previously living being. Please let them know you think this is morally wrong and glorifies the ‘power’ we have over our defenseless fellow creatures. This is NOT entertainment. Please meet outside 3209 West Broadway at 12:45 pm today – please bring signs saying “Keep the Meat out of Meatless Monday”, or “Butchery isn’t entertainment”, or your personal expression at this awful intrusion into what is meant to be a day of compassion and awareness. If you can’t come down to the store, you can still take part: please send a respectful e-mail to the people planning the butchering at julia@urbandigsfarm.com or phone 604-780-5262 and express your concerns.
Such proclamations are not a new thing on Canada’s Left Coast. Lest we forget the hypocrisy of a certain pizza joint advocating something similar. Click on the image therein and you’ll learn what happened to their Meatless Monday campaign.
Ezra Levant shared his thoughts yesterday.
Finally, surprise, surprise, it turns out that Lizzie May hasn’t had any meat inside her for a loooooong time.
mmm…water buffalo
Anyone who does not eat meat has never been hungry in their lives.
And as we are city folk and buy our meat, my 11 and 13 year old kids can only read about where the ribeye comes from.
Does help me explain why we say grace, don’t waste and and are thankful for that last meal.
Hey meatless mother eff’errs……. go eff yourself.
Doesn’t that call for a double order of CANADIAN BACON?
And don’t forget to back up the truck for STEAKS on Father’s Day. Whoo hoo BBQ!
And if Lizzie May wants to ‘lighten her footprint’; a visit to the weight loss clinic might be in order. And for all those vegans preaching to the choir don’t forget your B12 vitamins which you don’t get by eschewing meat.
A slight deficiency of vitamin B-12 can lead to anemia, fatigue, mania, and depression, while a long term deficiency can cause permanent damage to the brain and central nervous system. Vitamin B12 can only be manufactured by bacteria and can only be found naturally in animal products.

Lack of B12 may explain some of Lizzie May’s behaviour…

Regarding Lizzie May not having any meat inside her for a long time, I might add nor any grey matter between her ears either.
Our Dear Leader, mayor Moonbeam the First, just wants us to ask to bask in his glorious green glow.
Lizzard May not having meat in her for a long time, one look at that and flaccid is the order of the day!!!!
Regarding Lizard May, or sometimes known as Buffalo Wallow Woman, aka The Great Cow Manatee. Lizard is why the good Lord invented the jailhouse love doll so a man would not have to face something like that everyday. He also invented beer as proof that he loves men.
I love vegetarians- they’re all I eat.
So, this guy is stranded on a desert Island with a goat, a hen, and Lizzie May….
I recognized that diploma over her right shoulder as the same ones our kids earned when they were very young. It’s for toilet training.
If the goat is female,Lizzie can swim for help from MY island.
I believe the late Great Ayatollah Khomeini said it was okay to have congress with goats, but NOT pigs!
Do not forget how the radical American left funded the mayor and his loonie group. Another reason why it is imperative to get normal people elected to city councils.
Mayor Moonbeam is in the saddle thanks to the foam at the mouth tree huggers and no small contribution from the Tides foundation. When/if they toss him out on his ear you can bet the (organic) farm he will be running in some moonbat BC riding for the greens.

Does tongue not count as meat???
More commies on the dole telling us how we should live. STFU.
Alain & PeterJ: The Meatless Mondays campaign behind all of this nonsense is all controlled by a group called EarthSave. That was started by the descendents of the Baskin Robbins heirs (Lefties all it seems). While I could not find any direct links between EarthSave and Tides, I’m sure that it’s the same type of people in both: Almost all white, ultra-wealthy American Leftists who are using their great wealth to effect policy in America, Canada, & elsewhere.
While Vancouverites are mostly ignoring Gregor Robertson & Co., this proclamation is a reminder that elections have consequences. And when only 23% of eligible voters cast ballots in the last municipal election, you get boneheads like Robertson elected. 🙁
I love vegetarians- they’re all I eat.

I agree completely; I prefer eating vegans.
They’re both so bland.
Maybe slow BBQ or a smoked pheasant
recipe kicked up a notch would work.
Perhaps next meatless monday, the local halal eatery will jump on board and show the masses how they prefer to do things?
meat wise…
Thanks Robert. I like Alain and Peter J assumed Tides Canada was behind Robertson, as well as the Calgary mayor and trying to get their man in in Toronto. Who was Baskin Robbins?
Wouldn’t you love to spend some time in Saanich – Gulf Islands, the riding that elected Lizzie?
Imagine the deep conversations you’d have with the locals – you know, the virtues of Ganja versus Big Bud; whether the attack on the twin towers was directed by the CIA or The Bilderburgers; and whether world peace is most likely to be achieved by chanting, transcendental meditation, or sitting bare-arsed in a rain forest and howling in anguish at the moon.
Jesus H. Christ…you’d have to be stoned to take it, eh?
I prefer eating hippies. They’re grass fed!
Didn’t know it was “meatless monday” and had a very nice T-bone steak for supper that day. The comments below the article indicate that not the entire population of the moonbat capital of Canada is certifiably insane, but there’s going to have to be a lot more progress before I’ll set foot in Vancouver again.
Hans, you’re right about the role of B12 deficiency in causing a large part of the psychosis that is associated with vegans. I did a locum in Vancouver once when I had a clearly deranged vegan come in with complaints of numbness in his legs and decreased balance. He was blaming his illness on “pollution” and “capitalism”. Checked his B12 level and it was undetectable. When I pointed this out to him he refused to take a “chemical” and said he was eating yeast which has B12. Only problem with yeast is that one has to be able to digest the cell walls of yeast to free up the B12, something this moonbat was clearly unable to do. Agonized about whether I should commit him as he was clearly a danger to himself but then he might know a similarly deranged vegan psychiatrist. Finally decided I’d leave that matter to his regular GP and to this day I don’t know if he ended up in a wheelchair, or found a physician to get him labelled as “disabled”. Cure would have involved just a daily B12 injection but this moonbat was having nothing to do with the capitalist chemical complex which just put out pollutants to cause his condition.
Sadly, there were many more people like him that I saw during my time practicing in Vancouver and the most “normal” patients I might see during a day were the pot growers and members of the Russian mob; the latter two groups of patients didn’t start off describing their problem as a result of the evils of capitalism or yelling at me about how they were unable to do anything at all as a result of their chronic fatigue syndrome. Curiously, while people with CFS claim to be unable to even lift a fork of food to their mouth to eat, they have the energy and demeanor of a wolverine on methamphetamine when one points out either that they’ve been ranting non stop for 15 minutes, or the curious discrepancy between their cetecean appearance and their claim that they’re too fatigued to eat even a single mouthful of food.
positively cultish.
There are many sounf reasons to eat less “junk meat” and junk food and go to clean un polluted meats and natural foods but vegan occultism isn’t one of them – and it certainly is an abomination of office for elected officials to use tax money to promote faddish cultic pseudo science.
You want clean chemical and toxin-free low fat high protein meat? Hunt – or a least buy properly raised meat and dairy. We are omnivores not grazers. You must be careful of what you eat these days and natural food choices include meat and dairy.
What you don’t need is loony vrgan cultists clouding solid consumer nutritional and health science with their voodoo animism – particularly having these superstitious messages delivered by public officers and tax dollars.
Agenda-driven things like this demand a meat-in. Tuck into meat. Chicken shawarma, hamburger, deli sandwich- whatever. Fight back with protein and facts. Vegan diets would require huge tracts of high-quality arable land whereas a diet with some meat in it would require less (look that up). Then there is the fact that zinc and protein make you healthy. And meat tastes damn good!
A meat-in. The steaks are high and not just with the hippies in BC.
I may sound off the wall but I don’t believe this has anything to do with health, environment, or whatever. The object is to damage or destroy Capitalism one business at a time.
Just imagine a one seventh reduction in Meat industry demand. Thousands of jobs lost and profits gone for all.
They tried to do the same with GMO foods with limited success. Killed Yellow Rice for poorest part of the world.
The Fur industry is gone.
Tobacco is damaged.
The Firearms industry is damaged.
The campaign is underway against Spirits.
I could go on and on.
Can anyone out there possibly comprehend this may be a PLAN?
They call “them” the “Occupy Movement” today. Yesterday we called them just plain old commies.
I guess I’m just old fashioned.
I think it can be simplified even further. If you enjoy it, no matter what it is, there is some lobby out there that wants you to stop it. Every idiotic cause has its champions and we now have a overabundance of idiots and champions.
“Lizzie May hasn’t had any meat inside her for a loooooong time”
So many obvious jokes…so little time…
If going meatless will make me look more like Dizzy, pass the burgers.
….and the “guys” son looks at him one night and says, “oooh Dad do we have to eat Lizzie May burgers again tonight they always taste like weeds!” The moral of this story is that you become what you eat.
This thread reminds me of some contrived humour from “Spitting Image.”
Margaret Thatcher (AKA Atilla the Hen) takes her cabinet out to dinner and orders a steak done rare.
“What about the vegetables ?” asks the waiter. “Oh, they’ll have the same as me” replies the Iron Lady.
Well, that’s that, gona head on home and take out some deer and bacon and use Kate’s recipe for the baconator combo.
Yes, you got that right in spades. The same bunch of Luddites are also opposed to pipelines, nuclear power plants, hydro-electric dams, and the list goes on and on. Many people have just found a new religion to replace the one they dumped and coupled it with the great Marxist socialist utopia just over the next hill.
NepLuddite, now that was funny, as it is so believable.
Atilla the Hen, love, and have to remember that one.
Just off the top, how about Lizzie the Stun.
Quite right Occam. I too am an advocate of natural foods such as free range beef and buffalo as well as deer and moose meat. One of the nice things about living in an area where people hunt is that I get gifts of moose meat and deer meat on a regular basis (anyone have any idea of how to cook a moose liver – have one in my freezer). Free range eggs taste a lot better and are a lot more nutritious.
Have had some arguments with the hospital dieticians about my carnivorous diet 8 months of the year, but my response to them is that I let animals do the hard work of eating the low energy density plants for me. In the summer feast on berries, fruits and tomatoes that grow in my yard. Feeling particularly magnanimous this evening and so I’m willing to donate my lawn grass clippings to a vegetarian food bank instead of composting them.
