    1. Very scary. Goodale needs to stop spinning and start acting to protect Canadians. They are not on top of security and they are not properly vetting. Imagine welcoming former ISIS terrorists into the country. Bozo and his pals have to go or Canada is gone.

      1. @ 1028: It’s gone already. We’re toast, often said…
        …. ” We’re a post national, sharia-compliant, gender-balanced, Soros vassal, with a carbon neutral existence, and we have a quantum computed but self-balanced budget.”

        1. Nothing beats government by word salad and air pudding….

    1. Love the man buns and the winner earns a nice scroll. Just kidding. The ‘sport’ (wrong word) is actually interesting to watch. Can you imagine a large man like that going down hard on a non padded surface; it must rattle every bone in his body.

  1. This link proves the idiocy of the deranged left’s latest fetish with the “transsexuals.”
    https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/6804433/transgender-lag-sexually-abused-four-female-prisoners-days-after-arriving-at-west-yorkshire-jail/
    Have all these people lost their minds? Obviously there is nothing “transsexual” at all about this person. He did not even do anything to his body. “The inmate was sent there despite not having had gender reassignment surgery.” All he did was claim he was a “transsexual”, and they assigned him to a women’s prison, wherein he immediately got a hard on, proving he is just an ordinary male.
    The topper is the reporter can write this whole story, and so should realize all of the above, as any sane person should, and yet insists on using the pronoun “she” to refer to this man throughout the story.

    1. “She” had two reasons. Get laid going in and get cheaper car insurance getting out.

    2. that aint all of it. rumour has it the reporter is about to face charges charges charges for failing to xuse xhe xrong xronoun.

  2. Headline: Manafort’s Finances Will Be in Spotlight in High-Stakes Trial

    Paul Manaforts first trial starts on Tuesday. This is the one for him allegedly hiding money earned in Ukraine from the IRS, while he was working with Tony Podesta, the brother of Hillary’s campaign manager. These are supposedly the same charges the FBI passed on before Mueller took over the Trump witch hunt.

    WSJ has it firewalled.

  3. On Friday and Saturday, the Globe and Mail, Canada’s pro-Corruption Newspaper(TM), went into hysterics over Premier Ford reducing the number of Toronto’s city council seats. The left-wing newspaper, following its standard practice of one-sided journalism, published a series of editorials and op-eds decrying the move. It seems many of the Globe’s left-wing cronies at City Hall will lose their seats, at $110,000 each. The corrupt newspaper has long spoke for the favoured, well-moneyed elites in Ontario circles. The paper’s strong defence of political corruption means Ford’s reforms are striking a nerve in left-wing circles.

    1. The predictable hysterics over every action Ford takes make it all seem that much more enjoyable and satisfying.

    1. Last year I saw the band ” Chicago” and ” Earth, Wind and Fire” play here in Calgary. They were wonderful. I discovered “Leonid and Friends” lately, I think they hit the air a few weeks ago. Wow! Their sound is just perfection. Hope to see more of this cover band soon. I like their rendition of the song ” If you Leave Me Now”.

      P.S. I wonder whether our fellow S.D.A. commenters would be impressed with their fellow Ukrainians ? This was recorded in Kiev. It was not so long ago that this type of ‘R&R’ music was forbidden behind the Iron Curtain. I bet these people are happy to finally be liberated from some of the shackles that were imposed on them, especially in the music scene. The people in this band play with joy in their hearts. The female singer, not featured here, is wonderful too!

      1. I found these guys a few weeks ago and I’m hooked. They are tight and punchy, just the way that music is supposed to be played.

    1. uhuh.

    “CAIRO (AP) – Egypt’s Coptic Orthodox Church says a bishop has been found dead inside a monastery in the desert northwest of Cairo.
    Bishop Epiphanius is head of Anba Makar Monastery near Wadi el-Natroun in coastal Beheira province. The church did not elaborate on the circumstances surrounding his death on Sunday.

    Security officials say Bishop Epiphanius’ head was smashed and there were injuries to his back.”

    “Counselors Claim Clients Face Trump Anxiety: ‘Fear of the World Ending’”

    “A correspondent with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) based in Washington, DC, ferreted out a counselor who is treating people for a “collective anxiety” caused by President Donald Trump “volatility.”

    “There is a fear of the world ending,” Elisabeth LaMotte, founder of D.C. Counseling and Psychotherapy Center, told CBC. “It’s very disorienting and constantly unsettling.”

    1. People look at me cross-eyed when I mention our Libertarian Party. I believe its the creep of cretinism. Most Canadians are idiots.

  5. Ford must be doing a good job.
    Tides front group Leadnow is targeting him.
    Sounds like his very presence is an existential threat to their agenda.

    1. Watch this asshole use this solemn event for political purposes. I’m guessing he’s going to use this occasion to announce a total ban on handguns. Hope to hell I’m wrong.

      1. Wanna bet he’ll say something like: “Thith ith not who we are!”

      2. Oh he will. He’ll bring up Conservative fear-mongering. He’ll be sure to shed some fake tears if he can get himself photographed doing it.

        1. Government by platitude and fake emotion…. what a way to run a country, eh?

      3. yep. just like the Bouchie situation.
        I have a very dear native friend; when I pointed out the LIEberal TURDoo was using the trial verdict and ‘support’ of the bouchie kid’s family to garner political points, his mood sharpened.

  6. I see some idiot vegans are a little protest against a fishing tourniment proves vegans like these are total idiots

  7. Be prepared for more “climate change” propaganda from federal government scientists:

    https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/government-of-canada-further-strengthens-science-and-encourages-scientists-to-speak-about-their-work-689508721.html

    They may be “encouraged” to speak about their research but I seriously doubt that they’ll say anything anything negative about those who are funding them. They may be researchers, but they’re also civil servants and they know well enough not to bite the hand that feeds them.

    1. I believe the bit about “encourages them to speak sbout their work” is a not-so-subtle slam on Harper. It is easy for Libs to say this, as the Lib-friendly public service is not about to try to sabotage them.

    1. Climate Change Porn.

  9. If you are a legal gun order and therefore a law-abiding citizen, one of your enemies is Wendy Cukier.
    https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2018/07/canada-gun-control-debate/566102/
    Wendy Cukier is anti-gun zealot. She co-founded the Coalition for Gun Control. The number of outright lies in this article is astounding. She is so selective with her statistics it’s beyond the pale. But there is more about her.
    This is from the Ryerson University Diversity Institute: “She also created innovative programs to support student learning, experiential learning and applied research with particular focus on leveling the playing field between Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM), and Social Science and Humanities (SSH) funding and opportunities.”
    Or in other words helping worthless people get a BS degree.
    https://www.theglobeandmail.com/report-on-business/wendy-cukier-champions-gun-control/article1216158/
    This woman has about the whole alphabet behind her name – A professional skool people.
    She’s a big-time lefty and she doesn’t give a shit if you’re a saint who just likes to plink targets, she wants you disarmed.

    1. Cukier is a problem, but those involved in her alternative learning programs for STEM or anything else are not “worthless people”. That is an unnecessary slur.

      1. Reread that LindaL, she was trying to get fundiong for SSH to be increased to the funding level for STEM. In other words she was trying to get more taxpayer cash directed to her, with no hope of a return on investment for the taxpayer.

        Those people may have had potential at one point, but once they are sucked into that Social justice void, they become a liability for all the rest of us.

        She has been a huge unreported problem for decades for Canada, and suffers from a serious case of Authoritarian Asshole Syndrome.

    2. I was in the main gun shop in Hamilton years ago, mid 90s.
      clerk told me about the time ms cukier showed up like calamity jane.
      sans requisite transport permit for the HANDGUN she had on her.

      ?

      cukier packing illegally? shocking. is this like some diktatorial holier-than-thou hiring body guards from the ‘Oddjob’ school of physique likewise equipped with semis, to protect *their* precious ones, all the while unintentionally making damned sure criminals are untouched by any pending weapons seizure?

    “Kelly McParland: Note to the beating heart of left-wing Toronto — no one cares that council has been slashed”

    “I can’t say for absolute certain, but I’m pretty sure the overwhelming majority of people who voted for Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservatives in June are pretty pleased with their choice right now.

    Ontario’s rookie premier ensured that when, out of a clear blue sky, he revealed he was taking the city’s municipal elections and dumping them by the side of the road. Plans for the vote were well under way, candidates lining up, forms being filled, money raised. Then Ford announced that, instead of 47 squabbling, money-draining, time-wasting city councillors, he would chop the number to 25.

    Naturally, great squawking ensued. The beating heart of left-wing Toronto, having long ago decided Ford was the Canadian version of That Awful Man in Washington, is more than ever convinced that Canada’s biggest province has been abandoned to philistines.

    Elsewhere, outside the great, bumbling, unwieldy, self-absorbed world that is Toronto’s grossly inefficient municipal government, people rolled their eyes, cried “Hallelujah!” and wondered how it could possibly have taken so long.

    How hopeless is Toronto’s local government?

    The city has ruinous traffic problems, but has proven incapable of remedying them. Transit has been the No. 1 priority since Moses was in short pants, but — other than jabbering away endlessly about it — little ever gets done.

    Public housing is an utter disgrace and will continue to be for generations to come given the lack of willingness to address it. Housing prices are beyond reach, and the city bleats constantly about its lack of revenue, yet resolutely insists on taxing all that high-priced real estate at levels below every surrounding community. When a local man heard the city claimed it would cost $65,000-$150,000 to put some stairs in a local park, he built them himself for $550. The city tore them down and replaced them, for a mere $10,000.

    But Lighthizer has indicated he’s ready to try Trump’s negotiating strategy by reaching a deal with Mexico first in order to apply pressure on Canada. The U.S. has made no public efforts to engage with Canada and there are no immediate plans for Canadian Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland to come to Washington.

    “My hope is that we will before very long have a conclusion with respect to Mexico, and that as a result of that Canada will come in, and we can compromise,” Lighthizer said at a hearing last week where he expressed optimism to lawmakers that a NAFTA deal could be wrapped up by the end of August.”

    Toronto council votes to oppose Ontario bill that would cut number of councillors by nearly half

    Council also voted to request that the provincial government conduct a referendum on the number of wards and their boundaries before proceeding with legislation that would cut the number of councillors to 25 from 47”

    “OPINION
    Doug Ford is right about Toronto
    MARGARET WENTE”

    1. Ford is right on this. And I don’t think they should have ward-by-ward representation. There should be 10 counselors for Toronto proper; and 15 for the suburbs as they are currently defined. Counselors need to make decisions on what is best for the city as a whole — so wards are not pitted against one another. Ford may need to beef up the management team, but a team of professionals should be managing Toronto — not 50 or so counsellors.

      1. It is not enough to be elitist, one has to blatantly display it. When ya got it, flaunt it–right, Barbie?
