  1. Do you ever wonder how the grossly inefficient federal public service wastes its time? “Labour relations” is one of the most significant:

    “Treasury Board, the listed employer for most civil servants, said 27 of its 29 collective agreements with unions had expired as of Jan. 31, and another deal with RCMP regular members and reservists was to lapse at the end of March.”

    1. Perhaps the sticking point is how many “volunteers” these unions promise to supply for Shiny Pony’s re-election campaign in return for salary and benefits increases?

  2. By the time the covid vax deaths work their way through the population of the planet. Millions will have been murdered.
    Greasy politicians like Trudeau and all the Premiers and lower level politician who pushed and enforced mandated Murders need to all be brought to Justice under Nuremberg 2.
    This was deliberate MURDER. They knew.
    No Inquiries with hand picked judges.
    They must be charged and tried for Mass Murder and Crimes Against Humanity.
    And it has to go to Interntional Trial as well.
    If guilty the penalty is death by hanging under International Law..

  3. U of T prof labels police departments white supremacist institutions
    https://tnc.news/2023/02/05/uoft-prof-police/

    University of Toronto gender studies professor and social justice activist Beverly Bain says police departments are masculinist and white supremacist institutions that seek to protect property rather than people.

    The Canadian scholar, who describes herself as a “Black Radical Queer anti-capitalist feminist revolutionary,” has advocated for the defunding and abolishing of police and prisons.

    There are more details about her at:

  4. AoS’ Pixy Misa talks about ChatGPT some. Apparently some horrible people are throwing moral conundrums at it and it’s failing miserably. Like I posted earlier, without a conscience & concomitant morality, AI will never be “aware”. Which will be never.

    “When it comes to a choice between snuffing out millions of human lives or hurting somebody’s feelings, ChatGPT will protect your feelings every single time.”

    Nonetheless, an interesting experiment.

  5. I’ve refrained from commenting on this debacle because, well, like the linked author, I don’t believe any of the gov’t bastards (what’s my first rule of trusting the gov’t?). What I do believe is that, much like the Coof “vax”, this was an IQ test & many failed it. Errant weather balloon, Chinese surveillance equipment (yes, they admitted it was their balloon), whatever, it should never have been allowed to go feet dry.

    1. Doctor: “You’re too fat.”

      Indignant patient: “The nerve of you! I want a second opinion.”

      Doctor: “You’re ugly, too.”

  6. Poll:
    Do you think it’s fair for the federal government to ask for reporting reforms from provinces — as a condition of increased healthcare funding?

    So far, most are saying Yes.
    Why do the feds need our personal information, and what kind of people are okay with this?

    1. They don’t and, the same type of brain-dead idiots who voted for Commie & Commie Lite.
