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."

Didn't he play a character named Cousin Clem on the CBC TV series Country Hoedown? (Yeah, I'm that old.)

Any chance this might influence magnetic fields and thus cloud formations?

Re: Gordie Tapp
RIP, may God keep his soul!!

Yes he did play the part, before the CBC became the Liberal propaganda machine!!
I remember that the show went off the air before PET became prime minister. Its metamorphosis (or is it a mutation?) into Maple Leaf Pravda slowly began after that.
Tommy Hunter was a regular too, I recall. Gordie looked great and was still sharp for that 2012 clip.

One of your favourite Canadian people is in a poll and needing help as he's behind in the voting for "Prat of the Year"

Note I said Canadian as there are some others that might distract
"nearly hot as the surface of the sun?" I'd have a problem believing that. Also, at about the temperature iron gets cherry red hot, it becomes non-magnetic. Nice to know they aren't blaming fossil fuels for this one, though.
Any chance this is caused by global warming?
/whynot
This study suggests that the cause of the stagnation in global warming in the mid 20th century was the atmospheric nuclear explosions detonated between 1945 and 1980. The estimated Global Surface Temperature drop due to fine dust from the actual atmospheric nuclear explosions based on the published simulation results by other researchers (a single column model and Atmosphere-Ocean General Circulation Model) has served to explain the stagnation in global warming. Atmospheric nuclear explosions can be regarded as full-scale in situ tests for nuclear winter. The non-negligible amount of GST drop from the actual atmospheric explosions suggests that nuclear winter is not just a theory but has actually occurred, albeit on a small scale.

I think the molten iron is 3000 km below the surface, not the tell-tale magnetic readings.
Freat theory they have that kills two ideological birds with one stone. The Crimatologists were right about both global warming AND global cooling. Smart, these boys.

Interesting article in the local rag.
Titled to keep the reader from noticing the lack of details about the individual charged.
File it under the pavillion.
Tommy Hunter was a regular too, I recall.
Indeed. As I remember, his show started after Country Hoedown went off the air.
Well, he's got a lot of competition with fellow Canucks Catherine "Climate Barbie" McKenna and Dr. Fruit Fly being on that list.
Nice to know they aren't blaming fossil fuels for this one, though.
I'm sure that Red Rachel and Clown Prince Potato Head will find a way to do so. The fact that the loss of magnetism at high temperature is an actual physical characteristic won't stop them. In fact, they may use it to justify their carbon taxes.

"Watch all of Faith Goldy's reports from Ottawa after the latest honour killing"
"A Canadian Muslim man is being charged with stabbing his two sisters to death.
Musab A-Noor faces charges of first and second-degree murder after police found the bodies of his sisters Asma A-Noor, 32, and Nasiba A-Noor, 29, in their Ottawa co-op home.
While police have yet to determine a motive, the mainstream media is rushing to declare "mental illness" is a factor in the double homicide.
Given Canada's disturbing history of honour-based violence, including the horrifying case of the four murdered Shafia girls, The Rebel knew decided to send Faith Goldy to Ottawa to ask the questions the mainstream media won't.

Taliban video shows sons born to kidnapped U.S., Canadian couple
A couple wants to return from Afghanistan after being kidnapped while backpacking in Afghanistan in 2012. I wonder whether they weren't recruited and are having regrets. I hope they know how much men love buggering boys in that part of the world.

Nobody could do 'cornball' country humour any better than Tapp.
Today those lines would be looked upon with puzzlement. The present population is so far removed from the farm that they wouldn't get the jokes.
Is there nothing Ogabe can't do?

A new congressional investigation has determined that the Obama administration fired a top scientist and intimidated staff at the Department of Energy in order to further its climate change agenda...
“Instead of providing the type of scientific information needed by Congress to legislate effectively, senior departmental officials sought to hide information, lobbied against legislation, and retaliated against a scientist for being forthcoming,” Smith said in a statement.

""Justin Trudeau says he won’t hesitate to defend Canadian interests if Trump goes too far" (NP)"
Unfortunately, I do not think that Trudeau even knows what Canadian interests are. I am actually expecting that Trump may provide more benefit to Canada than harm (e.g. by approving Keystone). It would not surprise me at all if Trudeau opposed even things that will clearly benefit us. Trudeau is already screwing Canada with things like the punitive carbon tax and major deficit. I do not trust Trudeau to look after Canadian interests.
Any chance that this will affect global warming or cooling for that matter?
