    1. I’m sure the media are, in unison, screaming the NDP talking point, “Its not nearly enough!!”
      And I expect the big city mayors will come to the rescue and hammer their citizens with full on lockdowns.

      1. Remember the Liberals (who are supported by the NDP) call small business ‘tax dodges for the rich’.

        So naturally they both want to shut them down. Also small business tend to have no union members. So again the NDP aren’t interested.

      2. Mayors budget tax time is coming too. Simcoe County is raising theirs over 7% due to Pandemic expenses. They didn’t really cut any expenses, just tacked it on the bill.
        Toronto Mayor had threatened 50% a few months back and with these lockdown and great escape from his city, I imagine the tax bills will be hefty as he barely made it back from China when this Pandemic hit in the spring.

    2. I’m all agog and excited, awaiting Ontario’s rules for what we are allowed to do at Christmas. I just can’t wait. How could I ever have enjoyed CHristmas before these state instructions?

    3. With the media, they scream ‘lockdown!’ and then when you lockdown they scream ‘but small business’.

      Now the media is screaming ‘lock down harder’.

      To my delight Kenny spoke about socialism as an evil but more importantly mentioned our charter rights. It is nice to see a politician remember our rights.

      The lefties on Twitter are now now crying; “but charter rights can be suspended in an emergency.” They love being authoritarian.

    4. The Purple Princess is gearing up to wield his iron-simulated fist and demand a lockdown for Calgary.

      1. Why not? His buddy Donnie in Edmonton’s extended masking, so PP has to respond in their never-ending game of oneupmanship.

  2. The special character at the beginning of “ⓘ Official sources say this cartoon is false” is preventing the comments from being viewed or contributed for that post I believe.

  3. So, since the media never asks obvious but necessary questions, it’s left up to others.

    If Bidet and Harass are elected, bonafide, with nothing to hide, why hasn’t she resigned her Senate seat yet?

    They KNOW the cheat was an organized scheme.

    1. Yes exactly.
      One could tell when Biden-Harris appeared in public the night she got the nod from Joe. Harris was beside herself with glee. I wrote here on SDA, “she knows something.”

      From another site someone wrote:
      “America, we are the greatest nation on earth–with the most sophisticated technology at our disposal, we are allowing the election process to be corrupted like some third world banana republic–right in front of out eyes.”

      This would be the crime of the century if not stopped.
      And America would be in tatters.

    2. Everyone does. What is so astonishing is how brazen the Dementocrats have been about the theft.

    1. Hope I’m wrong but here’s a tip: Everyone will need to wear masks intermittently for the rest of their lives.
      Whether you have socialized medicine or private insurance, if bean counters get their say then we’ll see mask use every fall to combat the flu at a bare minimum. Risk analysis 101.
      If I drink like a sponge and pooch my liver I know my life insurance will be nullified. Or if I started smoking.
      “If it saves just one life…” or “If it reduces transmission just 10%…”
      You get a ticket if you don’t wear a seat belt in your car.
      Airplanes, malls, elevators, city buses, trains, Ubers and taxis, public buildings but especially hospitals.
      I just can’t see hospitals or even clinics ever letting anyone enter without a mask ever again.
      Again, I hope I’m wrong, but…

      1. I don’t know about other places but I’m seeing some people in the Calgary public wearing plastic face shields or cotton ‘designer’ masks as opposed to the disposable surgical masks. The benefits of this study, if true, would make the shields and cotton masks contraindicated, I would think.

        The new and improved salt-infused masks would mean bigger bucks for the companies that sell them.
        (Nice for the commie-capitalists)

        Next thing they’d have us believe is that there would be a salt shortage, if, as you say, people would have to “wear masks intermittently for the rest of their lives.”

        1. Next thing they’d have us believe is that there would be a salt shortage, if, as you say, people would have to “wear masks intermittently for the rest of their lives.”

          My late father, scarcely a paragon of gentility or political correctness, would likely say, in his accented English: “Ach, rub salt up your…..”

          2. I occasionally think of my father and his outspokenness. He was a crusty sort, often abrasive. Godzilla and his fiery breath would have nothing on him.

          4. That he was. He earned the respect of people because he was straightforward and did good work. As I think I’ve said on previous occasions, there are parts of town where, if I mention my name, people quickly surmise I’m his son and they do things for me as a result.

          5. I know what it’s like to live in a small town, word spreads pretty quickly. The expression, “one good turn deserves another” comes to mind. This is what the townspeople live by. It is a beautiful thing when your relative’s reputation is still recognized after they are gone. I’d say, you’re lucky man B A.

    1. Nice try bigot, the science was already settled so this study has been prebunked. Now go out on your mask and return home.

      1. Masks do not stop a virus, it is impossible. If a mask was dense enough to stop a virus you would smother. Of course based on Fauci’s study in 2008, bacterial pneumonia killed more people than the spanish flu, the reason, masks. Is that goal, kill us by using masks?

    2. New cases in Ontario today: 1373
      Recoveries in Ontario today: 1476

      The lockdown makes more sense everyday. Meanwhile the opposition is hammering Doug Ford for not locking down more and faster. Pure Kafka.

  8. Interesting charts here.

    Isn’t it odd that so many people want to move to Canada when Canada has the lowest average year round temperature in the world. And has only 3 months of summer and 15 months of winter so often? And I do mean fifteen.

    Hay, you don’t suppose it is because they all heard that the Ottawa gubmint will buy their phones and pay their rents and supply free food and free medicare too?
    Naw. they wouldn’t be that mercenary for all the free stuff, would they?

    1. Not sure what part of Kan-eh-duh gets 15 months of winter and 3 months of tough sledding. But point taken.

        1. It wasn’t much of a blizzard. Yes it was a little windy, but not much snow where I live. I can still see the grass on my , and my neighbors lawn, and no complaints from the dog. A lot like the latest “tropical storm” we had. There wss more wind from the breathless and easily excitable weather forecaster
          I moved back to Newfoundland in March and so far as I can tell, the Atlantic Ocean is immune to sea rise (still the same way I left it in ’74) and the weather is about the same, overcast with occasional sunny breaks.
          It’s so boring here we look forward to any change 😉

          1. Also Labrador always has lots of snow. I know because I was lucky enough to spend seven years is south western Labrador shoveling it every winter. By December there would be six tp eight foot banks of piled up snow on either side of my driveway so I traded the snow of Labrador for the cold of northern Alberta. A wise choice in retrospect.

          2. I know Maritime weather! As a born Montrealer, I lived in N.B. for almost 20 years before I moved out West.

            There were many blizzards in the Spring but the months of November and March were dangerous for black ice on the roads. It was the cause of many fatal car accidents, there were many sad stories!

            Personally, I hated the wind and drifting snow. After a blizzard when sunshine returned, one sometimes couldn’t get out for days because of a continuous wind which would blow the snow back onto the highways. Car accidents would be numerous then too.

            As for Calgary, the worst I’ve seen so far was the blizzard of March 17, 1998. We had 42 to 48 cm. I shoveled for days. In the Maritimes this doesn’t seem like much but for Calgary it was a lot.

            See video of St Paddy’s Day storm of 1998:

    2. No, a lot of people want to come to Canada because we are still living on our reputation of being a land of freedom and opportunity. Most people, even the natives still think that. Most haven’t clued into the fact that we are a bankrupt post national banana republic. Britons want to come to Canada to escape everything that Canada has become in their their homeland.

    2. And those people were bragging about their success and how superior they are to the ROC. Happy to exclude all the lowlies to west from their bubble. Fuck em. Fuck em all. Then cut off the pogey and the transfer payments.

  10. After Years Of Complaining About A Trump-Fox News Revolving Door, CNN, MSNBC Analysts Heading To Biden Administration
    https://www.dailywire.com/news/after-years-of-complaining-about-a-trump-fox-news-revolving-door-cnn-msnbc-analysts-heading-to-biden-administration
    Last on the list of fake media,
    Finally, there’s Jon Meacham, a presidential historian and MSNBC contributor, who failed to disclose to the network that he was writing speeches for Biden during his campaign, including his victory speech at the Democratic National Convention. Meacham also helped write Biden’s acceptance speech following the media declaring him the winner of the presidential election. Meacham, however, is unlikely to join the Biden administration.

  11. Dr Steven Hatfill, a biological weapons expert was on War Room ep 533 this evening. He was also the first guest on War Room Pandemic when Steve Bannon wanted to drilk down into the details of Covid-19.
    Hatfill wrote 3 Seconds to Midnight about a pandemic in 2019.

    Some of the talking points raised:
    – 47 countries are using HCQ as standard treatment for Covid19

    – In the Mumbai, India slums controlled Covid-19 in 1 month. They used aggressive community outreach for early use treatment.
    – No test kits, they instead relied on physicians diagnosis.
    One of the diagnostic tools used was a pulse oxymeter to quickly measure blood oxygen. They also used a defined checklist. If enough symptoms were present from the checklist they gave the patient a free treatment pack.

    – In Guayaquil, Ecuador where the death rate was 500 per day, the city leaders sourced HCQ and Azithromycin for EVERY citizen in the city passing it out to clinics and pharmacies.
    If someone had a cough they were given the treatment pack. Treatment kits were also handed out free of charge. By doing this they reduced Covid-19 deaths to near zero in 1 month

    – In Para State, Brazil, the PM of Brazil moved in with HCQ and brought the health care system under control in 2-3 weeks.
    – Brazilian private hospitals were handing out HCQ and Azithromycin. State run hospitals in the same city were NOT. The death rate was markedly different….

  12. Deep analysis on the remarkable ballot batches: https://votepatternanalysis.substack.com/p/voting-anomalies-2020

    “Either way, it is indisputable that his margin of victory in these three states relies on four [of the] most anomalous vote updates identified by the metric developed in this report.”

    It gets pretty dry in some places, but the general idea is that it can be shown that while you can have big batches of votes, and you can have batches of votes with high ratios for one candidate or another, it is increasingly unlikely to have both together as both grow. Biden’s leads in WI, MI, and GA all rely on vote batches that break pattern bigly.

  14. Strange how the Liberal Party’s bought and paid for media, are ignoring the story that staff at Penguin Canada are outraged about the publisher releasing Dr. Jordan Peterson’s new book in March. Even Fox News has the story on its website.

  16. Is this ‘new normal’ nanny state shelter in place hysteria the result of an increase of women in positions of power?

  17. Stock up on firewood and buy a horse. Blacklock reports that a federal agency has stated that the carbon tax needs to be raised 150%.

  19. Kate, would you please slow down with the posts? My talking points memos from Tides and Media Matters have ground to a halt and I can’t drop in my pithy troll turds until they arrive. I hear the pedo orgies in Davos and DC are now endless in anticipation of Jurassic Joe taking over the swamp government. Thanks

    1. Use your own handle, jerk. We all know you like jacking UnMe, but some of us don’t want to see it.

  20. The bridge makes me think of Hagwilget bridge between parts of Hazelton BC. Growing up nearby (then crossing it daily while busing to high-school), we were told that the “original” bridge was made from woven-cedar strand rope, and was tested out by forcing a dozen of the oldest women (beyond child-bearing years) to cross it first. I don’t think that that legend is still taught the same way.

  21. The Liberal Party’s CBC website is excited about whiny indians occupying land in Caledonia and elsewhere. Great pictures of a new school bus stolen from a church, trashed, then put across the road as a barricade. And heartwarming pictures of the sign at the church being vandalized. That will show those Christian “settler” bastards.

    1. And, you might not notice it, never any mention of which group is in charge of the protest. There are only Chiefs never any Indians. Factionalism is what keeps the victimhood going.

  22. Hunter Biden sought a meeting with his president-elect dad’s pick for secretary of state shortly after joining the board of a controversial Ukrainian energy company in 2015, according to a report Tuesday. Biden emailed Antony Blinken, then the US deputy secretary of state, to request the sit-down, Fox News said. “Have a few minutes next week to grab a cup of coffee? I know you are impossibly busy, but would like to get your advice on a couple of things,” Hunter Biden reportedly wrote on May 22, 2015. Blinken replied, “Absolutely,” and the two exchanged several more messages regarding the time and place.. – Fox News

    Oh look America wins!

  24. With all the world’s real problems solved with the overthrow of Donald Trump, the Grey Lady is printing an op-ed by Meghan Markle, in which those of us with real problems are expected to be comforted by the words of someone who has none.

    “Are we OK?” Speak for yourself, Meghan.

  25. Blacklock reports that Blackie’s former ambassador to China John McCallum, admits that he is a paid consultant to a number of Chinese companies, but refuses to give the names to MPs.

  27. Here’s athread.

    Ontario BBQ owner (Adamson BBQ) defies the provincial shutdown order and stays open. Sit down diners welcome.

    I’ll have the brisket!

    1. Good for him, but I’ll bet he gets fined at a later date. The cops were too afraid of making a scene in front of little children. They know kids rule!

      Here is David Menzies, he even spoke to a cop, if only briefly:
      Watch “Crowds flock to Adamson Barbecue in support of owner who defied Toronto lockdown”
      https://youtu.be/Yz3429ZB-Ag

      Abt—

      The brisket looks very appetizing and the side dishes look amazing! 
      Yum — check out the menu & food photos:

      P.S.
      I just heard on the News today: Cops shut down the place.

      1. NR

        Hope they have a ‘show trial’ for the brisketeer. I’ll be contributing to his defence fund.

        Any government that pursues a little guy like this deserves a good smack down. Incidents like this polarize the electorate and people rally around. I’m guessing the Ford government will rue the day they attempted to shut down the bbq man.

        1. I’ll bet he has many supporters to help with fines and if need be, lawyers etc. He is an ideal poster-man for all of them. I do wish them all well. This story is not going to go away.

          The Rebel News guys are all doing a fantastic job. I like David’s journalism style – he stays cool.

          P.S.
          “Brisketeer” eh, good word!

  28. If working from home is so great because you can spend more time with your family why does this concept get flung at us by THE RED STAR ?

    https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2020/11/25/universal-child-care-would-generate-up-to-29-billion-in-tax-revenues-new-report-says.html
    “But Stanford said that even if Canada were to adopt the most ambitious proposals that have been put forth — with estimated costs as high as $70-$80 billion over 10 years — the report finds that the long-term economic benefits would still exceed them.”
    Of course our boy Jim would say that, being a died in the wool ‘Progressive’. Never any factual evidence needed for these social engineering schemes because …

  29. Shree at the Liberal Party’s Toronto Star today, explains that Canada is the most bigoted country on the planet.

  30. What could be a first for the mainstream media (it certainly is a first for the Ottawa media), an article appears that criticizes government for failing to cut wasteful expenses when they clearly should. Despite a decline of over 70% in ridership, Ottawa public transit is operating as if everything is normal. There haven’t been any layoffs and no cost cutting. All buses and trains are operating on pre-WuFlu schedules but are mostly empty. And to keep the good times rolling for the employees, the transit portion of next year’s municipal taxes will be going up by 4.6% (this when inflation is a mere 1%).

    “We read this week that 80 per cent of hotel workers in Ottawa-Gatineau are laid off. The restaurant industry is on its knees, some outlets never to recover. Airlines and tourism are crippled. Small retail has been battered.

    And, somehow, it’s defensible to have the transit system operate at full capacity?”

    https://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/egan-how-oc-rolls-full-service-no-layoffs-just-near-empty-buses

    Yes indeed: we are all in this together.

    1. As I and others have said. Stop paying everyone who is paid by the government, all governments, and the whu who flu will vanish like snow in June. Stop paying board of health ass holes and it will stop even faster.

  31. A horse, my kingdom for a horse. No relevance to anything, it popped into my mind. I have read far dumber comments today.

    1. In my case, I’m looking for the front end of said equine. Enough people figure I act like the remainder.

  33. Rex Murphy at the National Post website, gives one of his best stories this year. This time on the outrage against Dr. Jordan Peterson’s new book.

  34. It’s amazing to watch the MSM brag about Joe Biden’s picks for his cabinet. None of them have the balls to report that it is the black Muslim who is pulling the strings. Biden doesn’t even have the ability to wipe his own backside.
