  1. “The New York State Department of Health acknowledged that its recent reporting does not fully reflect the known carnage coronavirus has caused among nursing home and adult care residents.
    The revelation comes as New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is under fire for his policies regarding nursing homes amid the coronavirus pandemic.
    New York is the only state with large coronavirus outbreaks among its long-term care facilities that doesn’t count residents who died at a hospital.
    New York quietly changed the way it reports long-term care fatalities around April 28.”

    Somehow the media are not howling and biting themselves and screeching hysterically about this like they did when Donald Trump said (insert anything) __________ about the Wuhan Fever.

  2. I don’t think I’ve gotten any smarter, but your reflexes slow down before you do something stupid when you’re older. ~ Kris Kristofferson

    1. Those words don’t seem to apply to a certain prime minister we all know. He didn’t seem to know much to begin with and has become increasingly dumber with age. However, the speed at which he does something idiotic appears to have increased the older he gets.

      1. “…has become increasingly dumber with age”

        To be fair, PM Little Potato hasn’t been painting his face black, stuffing banana down his pants and acting like an ape recently. So there is at least that. Although he did dress up in traditional Indian dress and danced like a demented baboon while wearing it… I say he’s just as dumb as he used to be.

        Or to put it differently: he can’t get any dumber because if he could he already would.

        1. Or to put it differently: he can’t get any dumber because if he could he already would.

          Maybe, in his case, the “best” is yet to come.

        2. Are you refering to our prime Minister-in-Hiding, at his summer cottage? Like a groundhog, he puts his head out every morning to check the political climate.

          1. And if he sees his shadow in the sunlight/press klieg lights, then that means 6 more weeks of lockdown.

          2. “…he puts his head out every morning to check the political climate”

            I know, Blackie’s handlers even finally made him thank Taiwan. Daddy Pooh will not be happy: “No bat soup for you.”

    1. That’s quite the Dementocrat thread.

      So many on the left that buy the lies they’re told, so easily. TDS

    2. I never gave it much thought tbh. If it is unsliced bread I call them heels. Sliced bread I call them crusts. Maybe I am weird after all.

    1. That’s one for Unifor’s “how to lose friends and alienate people” file. Holding someone hostage by disrupting their means of earning a living is certainly a good way to get support for one’s cause, isn’t it?

    2. Were I Saskatchewan farmer, I would warrant that any group of Communists blocking my Cardlock may end up looking at the business side of a banned 30-06. Threatening my livelihood is akin to threatening my LIFE.

      Were that to be deemed an unreasonable bit of kit to take along, a Louisville slugger may then suffice.

      Now I wonder on whose side our Vaunted “Roxham Rd luggage Porters” will be..??
      This is gonna get interesting

      1. The farmers need to identify the Unifor members and block their and their families access to food stores.

    I like the meme down lower in the twitter thread,
    WE’RE ONLY DOING FASCISM, UNTILL THERE’S A VACCINE !

    Globalism seems,,, to not want this crisis to go to waste.
    PM BlackTurd and the Liberal Party of Canada,,, seems to be doing their best, in following the instructions of the globalists. Our country is being destroyed, right in front of our very eyes.
    It’s clear now,,, that’s what’s meant, when politicians, elitists, talking heads and media personalities keep telling you “we’re never going back”, “things will be different”, “there will be changes”, “things aren’t going to be the same”, etc….

    It’s like watching a “squeeze play” in slow motion,,, Covid is the bunt, the runner on 3rd trying to steal home is “globalism”, and they’re trying to win the game before Trump can block them at the plate, and tag them out.

    1. https://nationalpost.com/news/business-and-health-leaders-accuse-trudeau-of-shifting-the-goalposts-for-reopening-economy

      Many Canadians were weak and fearful to begin with, especially urban ones with the probable exception of immigrants who came from shitholes, so two months of sky-is-falling propaganda has added to their insecurity. The provincial “leaders” can all eat shit but they are sort of coming around.
      But the Lickspittle Libranos keep pushing the narrative and PM Queerbec wants you destroyed so he can then “help” you as “we’re all in this together”.

      Medical “experts” don’t give a shit if your business collapses or if your job disappears.

      These people, parties and groups need to be held accountable.

      1. It appears we are in a distinct minority. As we can observe over the last two months, the vast majority of Canadians are pliable, naive sheep.
        They easily accept the propaganda and bullshit, incessantly repeated over and over by their compliant mediot friends, and by their corporate allies.
        We’re all in this together…………enough already.
        Patriotism is the last vestige of scoundrels.
        In BC, we’ve literally seen the premier abdicate his job to the mousy, bland MHO, who tells us on a daily basis to be vewy vewy afwaid, and hide, stay away, stay home. And now she reminds us all how great we’re doing, but still be vewy vewy afwaid.
        She’s a cross between a librarian, a granny, and a housekeeper with authority. And people want to glorify this as “leadership”. It’s the ultimate nannystate hectoring.
        Is mousy Dr Bonnie going to save anyone’s jobs, businesses or homes from being lost? Hell no!
        This has been a grotesque over-reaction, that could have been handled so much better without locking down the country and destroying the livelihoods, finances of thousands of individuals, and, very likely, the finances of most governments, which they will quite happily penalize all of us for as well.
        Thank you CANADIANS, for being such compliant SHEEP! Led to slaughter, financially of course, and debt slavery.

        1. Say “new normal” one more goddamned time! I DARE YA! I DOUBLE DARE YA MOTHERF*****!

          I think that needs to be on a T-Shirt. I bet they’d sell.

        2. But…. but….. but…. what if a piece of virus located in Patagonia is carried off by the wind and land in Prince Edward Island 20 years from now? Think of the outbreaks that might occur.

          We simply can’t take the risk because, well, if it saves even one life…..

        3. Alright.
          As a “distinct minority” we qualify as a higher level of victimhood and thus higher status in the “Just Us System” of the Kleptocracy.
          Anglo Saxon workers are the most victimized citizens in Canada.
          When laws can be passed banning whitey from owning certain property,that Aboriginals may keep.you know governance is over.
          The recent prohibition of firearms is pricelessly funny on many levels.
          Cultural appropriation.
          Blatant Racism.
          Pure idiocy.
          Double standards.
          Theft of property.

          Strangely the same trend of self contradictory,ass backward and plainly stupid ‘Rules for Pandemic’,that have been spooned out to us over the last months.
          Fools and Bandits.
          Should never be left unattended at the helm of the ship of state.
          Looks like those that survive this shipwreck might relearn such basic lessons.
          Are we done bailing yet?

      2. “Medical “experts” don’t give a shit if your business collapses or if your job disappears.”

        It’s not their job to. Their job was to give good advice wrt viral spread and other issues relevant to their expertise and they did with flying colors. The Experts performed brilliantly it’s the politicians that did not.

        1. Which experts should we believe?

          The flying colors ones that said there is no evidence of human to human transmission?

          The brilliantly performing ones that said masks are useless and should not be used by the public?

          The flying color modellers that used a computer program that was poorly written, full of bugs, would give different answers when run on different computers?

          The brilliant performers who advised New Yorkers to get out and enjoy crowded facilities?

          The brilliant ones that said requiring arrivals from COVID rich countries to self isolate for 14 days was ineffective?

          Perhaps it’s time we admitted that the experts were fooled by this virus.

      3. Buddy, many years ago I made the statement that the terminally stupid were in charge, I now need to amend that, not only are they in charge, they were put in charge by equally terminally stupid people. This country is very close to being terminal unless a few modestly intelligent people manage to arrest those who’s insanity is about to push us over the edge.

        1. Gives those of us possessing any of those “Prohibited by Order of Emperor Justine” tools,some idea as to their “value” by governments own standards.
          A toy that was $800 is now an unavailable item.
          Cannot be legally purchased anywhere.
          So that tool becomes priceless.
          But I might settle for $31 500.
          By order of Canada.
          Now my cousin’s are Status ,so I will “entrust” the items for safe keeping” as my Government cannot be trusted not to steal and somehow culture or skin colour makes a legal difference in ones ability to responsibly use tools.
          We will all be Billionaires…just like the citizens of Zimbabwe and Venezuela.
          Justine is a genius.

          OWG,arresting them will do no good.
          Maybe the icefloes off of Churchill could serve ?

  5. The bought and paid for media report that China is going after the U.S. for the one billion dollars it owes China’s United Nations.

    1. They should pay it and then promptly present Chi-nah with a bill for the costs of CCP-19 remediation. And then commence cancelling debt and seizing chinese-held assets when they don’t pay.

  6. UK AND Italian doctors are making up the same Kawasaki like disease among child sufferers of COVID-19 as doctors in NYC. At least they keep their stories straight. Don’t they know that this is all nonsense and they should stop trying to scare people, open schools and get back to work already, it’s no worse than the flu!

    1. War is far worse than the Wuhan Flu and the longer the shutdown lasts, the closer war gets to becoming a reality.

    1. I saw it in yesterday’s tips.

      The purchase must include evil silencers, a couple dozen of extra Beta-mags, and a designer case, to reach the $31250 mark.

      Even if one tops the $2500 AR-10 with a custom US Optics scope at $4500, it is still hard to reach the contract price.

      1. Apparently those guns must almost be as effective as a coyote hunters pre 1990 $500.00 Mini 14.

      2. Gives those of us possessing any of those “Prohibited by Order of Emperor Justine” tools,some idea as to their “value” by governments own standards.
        A toy that was $800 is now an unavailable item.

  7. Phrase of the day. “My freedom does not end where your fear begins”.

  8. And now Blackie’s Saturday Toronto Star. Your best choice for Liberal Party propaganda. Editorial that there is a virus in Canada. Tony Burman explains that only the Jew hating leader of the Jew hating Labour Party can save Britain. Standard Trump is Hitler stories. Mike Harris is responsible for nursing home deaths. Just ignore the past fifteen years of Liberal rule in Ontario. Gay guy gets murdered in Toronto. Black woman as new leader of the Liberal Party in Quebec is wonderful. But the black woman running for the leadership of the Conservative Party is evil because she is a Christian. Blackie is wonderful, the Liberal Party is wonderful, China is wonderful, socialism is wonderful, Islam will save Canada, Canadians are racist bastards. And don’t miss Great Leader throwing out more money from the cottage doorsteps parliament today. Did I mention that Blackie is wonderful?

  9. Warren Kinsella is upset on twitter that Conrad Black writes for the National Post. Only vetted Unifor opinion writers like they have at the Liberal Party’s Toronto Star, should write for the peasants.

    1. Didn’t Conrad own the Nat Post at one time?
      Does Kinsella even own his home yet?

      1. Conrad bought the Financial Post and used it as an important part of creating the daily National Post in 1998. It was a true conservative paper for the years that he owned it and by conservative I mean fiscally conservative and ever suspicious of Big Government.

        In my view, it helped change the views of many voters and made a major contribution to the election successes of Stephen Harper.

  10. People in Ontario have been told not to go to their cottages this weekend, but apparently some people are exempt. Toronto Sun reports that after Great Leader throws money out the door this morning, he will be spending the long weekend at his Harrington Lake cottage in Quebec.

  11. Awesome playlist on “The Highwaymen” video; great tunes for a concert. Ken Burns’ “Country Music” documentary gave me an appreciation for and understanding of Country music. Better late than never but, oh, I sure would have loved seeing Waylon Jennings.

  12. Meanwhile in Calgary, the city is now burying the social distancing closure of half of Memorial drive and Elbow drive in their road closures map. No press release, just sits there in the seemingly infinite list of pot hole repairs.

    That most nauseating phase, “new normal” means cars bad, strolling on tarmac good? I wonder when they will get around to permanently closing roads?

    1. Memorial Drive was a mess when I lived in Calgary more than 40 years ago.

    2. Don’t like the burying in the general road closure map, but the tower dwellers need some place to walk in this nice weather. It can’t be fun being cooped up in a small apartment 30 floors up.

  13. Wet markets are not wildlife markets, so stop calling for their ban

    https://qz.com/1838955/asias-wet-markets-are-not-the-same-as-wildlife-markets/

    “For starters, wet markets, as they are widely known across Asia—in particular Hong Kong and Singapore—do not sell wildlife. Instead, they are often more akin to large, open-air produce markets, where vegetables and fruits are piled high on crates for shoppers to choose from, cuts of pork and beef hang from hooks, and fish and other seafood swim and float in small tanks or are laid out on beds of ice. Some markets also have live poultry in cages, and butchers only kill and de-feather a bird when a shopper decides to buy one.”

    1. Don’t give a rats ass, I’m calling for their ban.

      Aaaaand I’m not alone, no not by a long shot.

      1. Your disregard for basic facts and knowledge is one of the reasons you’ve lost the culture war and will continue to.

  14. Headed out in the bush yesterday north of Rocky Mountain House. Every place you could jam a pickup and trailer had one. There was a clearing with a dozen sitting side by side complete with barking dogs ATV’s and snot nosed kids.
    Sounds perfect but I guess after 2 months of house arrest the bush looks good ha.

    No physical distancing- let the good times roll. Yesterday in an 11th hour move the AB public heath authority knowing they’d lost control of the narrative issued a directive allowing groups of 50 to gather.

    The Proles have had enough. They can see the actual numbers don’t mesh with the models the authorities have been peddling.

  15. Taiwan should be allowed into WHO

    https://youtu.be/-3Ry6eiKvvw

    WHO benefits from their exclusion?
    Chi-coms & their allies. No one else.

    We need to demand reform of WHO, part of that reform should be Taiwan’s inclusion.

    How to make that happen?

  16. The Proles are fighting back. Across NA there are demonstrations protesting the lockdown and the actions of our political masters.

    Queens park has one going but the real one is the Proles just snubbing their nose at the politicos and the medical xperts who got it wrong.

    Big consequences for the politicians. I think this weekend is a watershed moment. It’s downhill from this point for the political class.

  17. About an hour ago on this day 77 years ago 19 Lancasters of RAF’s 617 Squadron set off from RAF Scampton. On board were 133 hand picked expert crewmembers, a disproportionately large number (31) of whom were Canadian. Of the 133, 53 died on the raid and only 48 survived the war. The Canadians seem to have come from all across Canada many from towns I (as a Brit) have never heard of such as Milo Alberta and Nanaimo BC. Most were what would now be considered astonishingly young- Sgt Frederick Sutherland, a front gunner,from Peace River Alberta was less than three months past his twentieth birthday – he had done 25 missions before this raid. He survived but his aircraft was shot down on an ill-fated raid to Dortmund Ems in September. He bailed out and with help from the resistance made his way from Holland to Spain and then back to the UK. He survived the war.
    What men!
    If you’re interested this a great site which will give you many more details of the Canadians involved and the others.
