  1. Why do Greens hate Blacks?
    How to Starve Africa: Ask the European Green Party
    Essentially what this Green Party report is saying to Africa is that the EU must not fund your means to develop. Rather, you are going to do things according to our organic, smallholder agricultural ideology; to protect biodiversity through farming practices that dramatically lower yields and leave farmers vulnerable to crop losses and reduced income; to reject seed technologies, fertilisers and pesticides and compensate with labour intensive family farms that will put pressure on the youngest members from getting a chance to get an education.

  2. The night the lights went out in Calgree. . .
    Video: Notley presses on as lights go out during Q&A

    Notley had just received 97.8 per cent approval from her party, and she was in the middle of answering the final question at a media availability—a question on why Alberta NDP members so overwhelmingly supported her—when the lights in the small room at the Hyatt Regency hotel went out.

    Maybe she pulled the plug on the coal fired plants a little too soon.

  3. Sorry no link for the following Conundrum that I received in an email from my cousin.
    Conundrum
    “A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don’t have one, you’ll probably never need one again.”
    The definition of the word Conundrum is: something that is puzzling or confusing.
    Here are six Conundrums of socialism in the United States of America :
    1. America is capitalist and greedy – yet half of the population is subsidized.
    2. Half of the population is subsidized – yet they think they are victims.
    3. They think they are victims – yet their representatives run the government.
    4. Their representatives run the government – yet the poor keep getting poorer.
    5. The poor keep getting poorer – yet they have things that people in other countries only dream about.
    6. They have things that people in other countries only dream about – yet they want America to be more like those other countries.
    Think about it! And that, my friends, pretty much sums up the USA in the 21st Century. Makes you wonder who is doing the math.

  4. The corollary to that is:
    “It’s better to have a gun when you don’t need one, than to need a gun when you don’t have one.”

  5. I sent Walmart Canada an email advising that their store has dropped to the bottom of my list as the place to go if I can’t find something anywhere else. The truth is I will likely go without. Between the recent Visa decision and the $.05 charge for bags that is it.

  6. the fees that visa charges used to be called usury. I rarely use my visa. I pay the annual fee so I have it for emergencies. one of the major supermarkets in Ontario also has stopped accepting visa, no frills, I think. looks the market is making a decision.

  7. Half of America is on subsidies? The figure sounds understated to me. Do your numbers include farm subsidies?
    In any event if your numbers are accurate why would a Republican who wants to change things ever stand a chance of being elected?

  8. AGW RIP.
    Let’er RIP.

    “More than half of jobs in UK solar industry lost in wake of subsidy cuts”
    “This month the Solar Cloth Company became the latest to be put into administration, following the liquidation and 170 job losses at Solarlec two weeks ago.
    The biggest single collapse was late last year when the Mark Group went into administration with almost 1,000 redundancies.”

    Obama the Bathroom Clown will protect your toilets.

  11. FBI believe he may have ‘leanings to radical Islamic terrorism’.

  12. Orlando Islamic massacre has just secured Trump’s nomination as POTUS…Now he will have the gay vote.
    ISIS: Too stupid to wait for an election in the hope of having amother wimp Democrat ruling the WH.
    Trump will make mincemeat out of them.

  13. What will the left say now one of their favored constituenciess have been hit?

  14. Pamela Geller on this morning’s shooting by the devout muslim Omar Mateen. Several others are naming the devout muslim and stating directly who he is and what he stands for.

    “A suspected Islamic extremist wielding an assault rifle and a handgun has killed about 20 people after taking party-goers hostage inside a gay nightclub in Orlando.
    The gunman was carrying a suspicious device, possibly a suicide vest, when he opened fire inside Pulse in the early hours of this morning.
    Orlando Police Chief John Mina said authorities have not determined the exact number of people killed, but that ‘approximately 20’ have died. Another 42 people were taken to hospital.”

    “fearless leader says… Breaking News – Watch live streaming of a Islamic Terrorist attack at an Orlando, FL Gay Nightclub.”
    the timing on this is exquisite… the cbc is currently running a feelgood story on a “homosexual mosque” in toronto…
    “A mosque in Toronto is creating a name for itself for welcoming the LGBT community, as well as to people of all faiths.”
    of course, the guy setting it up is apparently a homosexual muslim lawyer/activist and not an actual imam.
    what could possibly go wrong?

  16. See my previous comment, Marc. The silence of the socialist lambs faced with the truth is perplexing. They are dears [sic] caught in the headlights of reality.

  17. Why pay a fee for any card, especially if it is only for emergencies? My two cards are on autopay on the due date and have no fee. One is cash-back.
