    1. He’s not the only one . Todd Beasely was also turfed ….. among others I am sure.
      It disgusts me that it’s the LEFT who “frames” who we can or cannot allow to run as a Conservative Candidate. And it is patently obvious that the UCP is all about Controlled Speech as opposed to True FREE speech. Nothing Danny wrote was in yer face offensive at ALL.

      Islam. Immigration, Gender Neutral Indoctrination and unregulated abortion are all ISSUES that absolultely warrant discussion….Most of those being in the federal arena.

      And if we are not allowed to discuss for fear of what those BASTARDS on the Left think or have to say…?? then we LOSE & in the end, become homogonized NPC’s.

  1. VIDEO: Spencer Fernando Speech On The Three Biggest Threats Facing Canada

    https://www.spencerfernando.com/2018/11/26/video-spencer-fernando-speech-on-the-three-biggest-threats-facing-canada/
    ————————————————————————————————————————————————–
    L- A Canadian patriot speaks out, video and text of his speech linked above. His articles are a means to keep up with important Canadian issues. He is a viable alternative to the moribund fake news MSM.

    The same MSM, most of which, is in the process of selling it’s soul to the Trudeau Liberal government. This in exchange for some palliative care, such a Mephistopheles like bargain will provide no more than say… 30 pieces of silver.

    1. I used to have Spencer as one of my favourites but it kept getting blocked by someone or something. my computer used to grind to a halt when I had the site on. captcha must be busted five different times and things to identify.

  2. Talk about stupid. Ivanka Trump uses a private email server?
    Guess she hadnt heard of HRC…..
    Arrrrugh

      1. ” it was in the transition period before official access”

        And nothing Ivanka wrote was classified and virtually everything Hag Hillary wrote was classified.

  3. Today’s Angus bloodline contains the Chianina bloodline. Back in the ’70s Angus cattle were small, like shorthorns. When Angus was crossbred with Chianina, the offspring retained the Angus color but grew to be much larger. Suddenly you saw all these large Angus cattle. The old timers chuckled and “wondered” where these large animals came from that were “showing” so well.

    1. I remember a time when buyers heavily discounted Angus; too small and too lean with low carcass yield.
      Today the burger chains prominently feature the Angus name in their advertising.

    2. I’ve never understood why Angus is suddenly being marketed as a “premium” meat.

      (haha… cross posted with NOLD above)

      Other breeds have better marbling and better flavour, IMHO. Plus Angus are generally a pain the ass to raise. Give me a Hereford anyday.

        1. We used to raise Simmental and Charolais.

          You want cantankerous. Get in front of a Charolais when the damn thing wants to go somewhere. Practically psychotic.

          1. I remember a time when I came home from school. As nobody was home at the farm I went to the barn to look at Dad’s new Charolais bull. I opened the barn door and at the far end of the barn (just outside the box stall it was “supposed” to be in) was the bull. We always kept broken 2×4’s etc in the framing next to the barn door. I simply had to reach back and grab a “tool” while I was closing the door. Now you don’t want to show fear so you walk briskly forward hollering to chase the bull into the box stall. It knows where to go. I broke the 2×4 over his head as he squinted. I was looking for the nearest saddle yoke as the bull decided the better part of valor was going back into the box stall.

            Mission accomplished.

    3. Herefords pretty much doubled in size by crossbreeding. I spent my youth on the end of a rope pulling Hereford calves during the time of bigger and bigger bulls. Back in the day my father wouldn’t touch anything that didn’t look 100% Hereford as the buyers discounted black cattle. I think they worried about Holstein crossbreeds and Holsteins don’t gain as well. It is interesting that before the importation of large French and Italian breeds some people crossbred with Holsteins for size but it didn’t catch on well.

      1. Speaking of cross breeds, does anyone remember the Beefalo ?

        There used to be a farmer out by the bull test station in Peterborough, ON that raised beefalo. Might still be there for all I know. The animals were almost of a size with purebred buffalo but the temperament was dialed way down.

        1. I remember articles about Beefalo. In the late ’90’s you could buy a buffalo for a couple hundred bucks. I think the breeders lost interest (and money) in the Beefalo bloodline.

    1. Ya gotta hand it to the Angus boys. They know how to market.
      All purebred cattle breeds could use a shot of outcross (so could dogs). The commercial cattle guys know this.
      And how about the cow cow boogie by the Andrews sisters for a tune selection!

    1. ” The federal Liberal government is chipping in $28 million to Maple Leaf foods to lay off 300 people. Does that make any sense?”
      Why is Chris Selley beating on Ford and not on Shiny Pony? Oh that’s right, he’s a paid Liberal hack. Both governments are stupid but the lame stream media only singles out their favourite whipping party. Why read this biased crap Unme.

      1. One of my pet peeves.
        Mom’s who hatch offspring so wonderful and so unique that only a name no one else in their right mind would tag their child with becomes the preferred name; a name so unique the poor child has to waste an inordinate amount of time explaining the correct spelling, the pronunciation, or the significance of the name.

    1. At least her name is better than uvxyz.
      Now the name above would cause confusion with all the womxn, womyn, womzn in Justin’s new multi-gender world.

      Just waiting for someone to name their kid @#$%.

  4. https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/canada-announces-sanctions-targeting-saudis-linked-to-abhorrent-khashoggi-murder-1.4197501
    In another exercise in virtue signalling,Chrystia Freeland announces that Canada will sanction 17 SA citizens who they believe have ties to the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.

    I’ve never seen so much fuss over the death of a private citizen, I suppose it’s because he’s an alleged journalist and as such is a member of a group that believes they are above all laws and consequences.

    I wonder if Freeland will sanction the 180 ISIS warriors from Canada,who may not have killed journalists,but they certainly murdered hundreds if not thousands of innocent civilians. No she won’t,but will roll out rhe red carpet and give them every assistance to return to Canada and become jihadi operatives for the Liberal support group,the Muslim Brotherhood.

  5. At one time I used to buy young Holsteins and graze them for a couple summers. It didn’t make me rich as Holsteins are highly discounted for beef. They are big and this steer is 7 years old when most end up on the barbeque by their second birthday. Throw one in a field of a tiny breed of cattle and he looks huge. He’s only 3000 pounds. Holstein bulls average around 2000 pounds. While he is huge, he is only bizarrely huge compared to the tiny herdmates. If the owner wants him slaughtered, call me and we’ll be having burgers in no time. The old bugger would be pretty tough for anything else.

  6. Turdeau’s true colours

    “Canada broke with the free world and joined Syria, Iran and North Korea by voting ‘no’ on eight separate measures that sought to hold Cuba accountable for widespread human rights violations,”
    https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/malcolm-un-watchdog-rightly-condemns-canada-for-siding-with-cuba

    and if that’s not enough:
    Trudeau’s representatives even failed to join a motion calling for gender equity in Cuba. When the world’s top male feminist shies away from an opportunity to lecture others on gender, you know something’s not right.

    Why doesn’t this surprise me?
    Now that Turdeau is down visiting Argentina the key question is: “What gaucho costume will Turdeau wear?”

    1. “What gaucho costume will Turdeau wear?”

      And maybe Sophie will give us a few verses of “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina”

      1. Well, I can see why this is important. When turning Canada into a puppet of the UN, if you do not have a seat on the Security Council, you would have little control over what happens in Canada. Liberals are in a bind due to their pursuit of globalism via the UN. Alas, if he gets the seat, Canadians will cheer for Justin and sneer at Harper`s failure to do so. Little do they understand that the price of this will have been Canadian sovereignty. I do not think I am exaggerating. Look at what is happening to poor Switzerland at the hands of the globalist EU. The upcoming UN Pact on Migration will seal our fate by placing concerns re migrants above those of Canadians. That is the exact purpose of the Pact.

    2. https://twitter.com/HillelNeuer/status/1067588593999323142

      8 different motions where Canada joined Syria, Iran and North Korea in voting No, thereby siding with Cuba’s Castro. Family loyalty?

      Also includes a motion where Canada voted No on respecting gender equality. I suppose it might have been different if Cuban women worked for national media, but since they are only local.

  7. It’s all about GM shutting down in Oshawa Ontario….meanwhile oil is down to $10 bucks… an ongoing crisis in Alberta and for the entire country and our PM doesn’t give a flying fart. He and his duds have other fish to fry,flitting around the globe showing off his socks…and stupidity.

    1. Turdeau tells people (most recently Jerry Dias) that he will “roll up his sleeves” to work on the issue.
      “Rolling up his sleeves” means Turdeau will be taking some selfies.
      Turdeau has never worked for a living so he does not know what work really is.

  8. Here’s one for ya: On Bourque Newswatch (yeah, I go there to see what Kentral Kontrol writes about) the headline is: ALBERTA CONSIDERS CUTTING OIL PRODUCTION, except when I click on it I get a CBC article on military procurement, titled “Why can’t Ottawa get military procurement right?”

    No mention of what the AB Gov is doing on shutting down production. I’m hoping that Ms Notley cuts production headed to the Lower Mainland, specifically that Burnaby Refinery owned and operated by Parkland Fuel. It would be tough on them and indirectly myself but I own shares in this great company and it’s business, but I’m quite prepared to project some PAIN to those slack jawed NDP, residing there, with heads like blocks of wood for brains. Sure enough their pals in green servitude in Washington State, will come to the rescue (for a price mind you, they will be sure to tell us all their woes on that sniff, sniff, boo, hoo).

    Sockless Joe will immediately fly out to stroke a few brows to sooth their punctured egos, throw some money around and question Ms Notley’s commitment to Green Servitude and “process” to get there, but the next move Ms Notley needs to do is blockade anything headed west, over the Rockies to Port of Vancouver, Port of Rupert, Port of Anywhere in BC, especially all that “dirty ” coal headed to China, via our rail system. I mean everything and to hell with Ottawa.

    We produce a legal product that rivals weed in cash value, that the tax value to what we do on the health file alone, WILL impact health care in this Province and ones across the country. People need to get thinking on the reduction of life style brought on by this “Green” crap. It WILL impact your quality of life in this country, Mr Butts POV excluded. WTF?

    In fact, Mr Butts laughs at you on Twitter on every successful crimping on your lives that “green” crap impose. Folks need to contact and his boss the Sock Boy, and explain that he isn’t our Mom and he should just butt out of our lives

  9. Further on my last post. Any action by the Government of Alberta on coal export via rail, impacts US coal producers, because they are conveniently using Port of Vancouver to circumvent the blockade of coal exports by the Great States of California, Oregon and Washington.
    NDP John Horgan touts his “green creds” on all that “dirty tarsands oil”, while shipping dirtier coal from Point Roberts coal terminal. Every. Single. Day. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Most of it goes to China, where they puke the unclean crap up the stacks of Chinese state run pollution machines and we, over here breath it all in, via the prevailing westerly winds. Our Federal Government in it’s great wisdom, then taxes us on a so called “polltutant” CO2 (really, whose pollutant, if it comes from China?) as if the Fed .Gov had the “rights” to all air, or “own” it and you by extension by breathing it. Really? Some people might dispute that contention. I’m one of them. How about yourselves?

    Point Roberts are set up to ship some 5 million tonnes annually to Asia. BC “organized labor” benefits (that’s da NDPEE). Not sure what the US commitment is, but I’ll bet it’s bigger than us. It would cheer me to no end to block those shipments, because then we get Mr Trump stumping for US interests up here to set things straight and potentially back handing the cretins in this country on their supidity and hypocracy on “green” initiatives and servitude. Oil will flow, as a result, or the feds get a call from Alberta and maybe Saskatchewan that Confumbulation is ended.

    If you’re shipping coal over McMurray produced oil, or any other type of oil that flows down the New Transmountain pipeline, or the old one either (because it isn’t just “tarsands Oil” John Boy), it is ALL oil produced in Western Canada, including the stuff produced in B f/n C, as far east as Manitoba!

    You’ll have all the open borders you want Sock Boy, just not in our two provinces. Deal with it.

    1. Agreed with your points except one:

      Part of Port of Vancouver, Roberts Bank is also known as the Outer Harbour of Canada’s busiest port. Westshore is the busiest single coal export terminal in North America and is operated by the Westar Group on a long-term contract. It typically ships over 20 million tonnes of export coal a year and early in 2010 completed a $49-million equipment upgrade, bringing its capacity from 24 million to 29 million tonnes per year.

      So that 20 million tonnes of coal would emit about 45 million tonnes of CO2 when burned. Note I did not include the methane released when the coal was mined.

      Meanwihile Victoria continues to pump 130 million litres of raw sewage into the ocean every day. But hey its “organic”

      1. Well thanks Joe, those numbers make John Horgan, the NDPEE & Weavil look even more hypocritial. I’m using “old data” ‘scuse me, we can’t have that can we, but thanks for the update because your figures make the scenario even worse. LOL!

        Yeah, blockade the tracks, Rachel. Skip the rail cars unless they’re headed to Burnaby, or Rupert. Put some anti coal Greenies on that line to Westshore, if you want to keep your “anti carbon” creds up to snuff. Let’s watch Horgan’s head explode when he tries to justify “dirty coal” over “dirty Oil” where the refined stuff get’s him to work on time, or North to Whistler to ski.

        1. Actually, PO’ed, I’d be inclined to stop all petroleum products that flow from NE BC via Alberta to markets before I cut off the BC supply. That would be second. But hit them in the royalties, I say.

  10. Used my month old phone and Oogle Maps to locate an address this morning. On the way back from that address I stopped at the *********** Bar & Grill for breakfast. A few minutes ago I picked up my phone and printed on the screen was a question – “How did I like the *********** Bar & Grill.” (And I paid cash.) I realize no one is “watching’ but its f’n creepy nonetheless. I guess if I was a 20 year old I’d think that was cool and do a review of the joint right away.

    1. As Oogle says, they monitor your whereabouts to provide you a better Oogle experience. But I suspect they are more interested in getting money from the ******** Bar & Grill by providing them with your feedback than they care about your feedback.

      i have a problem with Google Adds. If I buy something off the Internet I am inundated by Google with adds for that specific product. But I already bought that product so why would Google want to show it to me over and over the next week? Seems bass ackward. Shouldn’t Google show me the add before I buy the product? They don’t seem to know the difference between me browsing and buying.

      Take coffee beans. If I browse a web-site for coffee beans and don’t make a purchase, Google should show a coupon in my browser. Instead, after I buy my beans, I get one week of the same online add I had clicked on to make my purchase.

    2. I always do the rating and give the place a failing grade. Pro tip. You merely have to drive close to someplaces to get asked the question. Fight back.

  11. Ref Holstein steer.

    CTV Ottawa Evening News announcer 2 nights ago: “What may well be the world’s largest bull…..”

    Me: That’s not a bull, it’s a steer, for crissakes.

    Wife: Well, they said it’s a bull….it must be a bull.

    Me: Nope, it’s a steer….just look at its little cow head and neck.

    Wife: Well if that’s big, it has to be a bull.

    Just then the camera gave a shot of its arse end….yup, balls all gone.

    Me: See, I told you, no nuts at all. Big, pin-headed and no balls. A steer….just like Andrew Scheer.

  12. This is a note to SGI. Your timing was bad when you suggested the laws in the province be changed to penalize drivers who leave keys in their automobiles that are stolen. You need to wait a year or so for the marijuana industry to have adequate stock available and many of the Saskatchewan citizens using, before you try to change the law. After a year, not too many people in the province will care when the socialist government agency (S.G.I.) advocates changing the laws to penalize citizens who have their vehicles stolen, rather than penalizing the thieves. They will be more amenable to being herded like sheep and obeying the dictates of some bureaucrat.
