Don’t know. I cannot stand the sound of his lisping bullshite so I did not listen.
Trudeau has figured out that to implement his hard-left radical ideological agenda it’s easiest to bypass Parliament, merely utter some general bafflegab in the Throne speech, then get going with whatever he wants to do, making more Canadians dependent on government in every way.
He also figured out that no one would want to watch or be able to watch his wretched performance and promise to ban Thanksgiving.
We need an avalanche.
But…Trudeau did say that borrowing money is so cheap now and would be crazy not to take advantage of the lowest interest rates…
Pushing this green plan that has sunk Australia and California as a new idea while imposing even more laws and regulations on business.
Trudeau made the same “argument” six years ago during the election that put him into power.
“Interest rates are so low, what an opportunity to ‘invest’ in Canadians. It would be foolish NOT to borrow money…”, etc., etc.
I was chatting with some work acquaintances around that time. All were VERY well-remunerated white collars, who transferred from Montreal to Calgary when the CPR HO moved out west.
“Trudeau’s right, it DOES make sense to borrow when the rates are so low”; they all chimed in unison. They congratulated themselves on their fiscal prudence.
I realized at the time it was pointless to reason with the witless, but still I couldn’t restrain myself. “And when you borrow money at low interest, do you think you will still be holding that debt when rates are higher? Doesn’t the federal government still have every penny of debt that the old man borrowed forty years ago? How many billions have been wasted servicing the debt of the first Trudeau? Governments never pay off their debt, they only roll it over as a growing burden to future generations. It’s nothing but a ponzi. And do you remember anything that was actually “invested” in by Trudeau during the 70s and 80s? No? Will you admit that all the debt-financed spending was nothing but empty promises, and that only the government-connected crony plutocrats were enriched at public expense? And we are TO THIS DAY paying interest on that mountain of Trudeau debt.”
Well, as I said it was pointless to reason with them. They stared at me dumbfounded. The only thing one of them could say was, “wow, you really don’t like Trudeau, do you?”.
I then shut up.
As a postscript, I’ll just add that near the end of that election, a friend of mine, intelligent, fiscally prudent, industrious — possessing all the virtues you’d want in a citizen — said to me: “gosh, I’m really torn in this election. Harper is so boring. I want some excitement, and Trudeau does have that charisma.” I felt betrayed in every way. Not that I carried any water for Harper, but…how could anyone with sense toy with the idea of voting for that (patently obvious) moron and narcissist?
If Canadians freely choose their enslavement and destruction then count me out. This country is looking more like a fanatical suicide pact day by day.
HRH J.T. always was and always will be a total jerk.

Nancy,
I caught a bit of the throne speech with the sound off.
JP must be taking acting lessons from Blackie McSpendy.
She is all in costume , reading a bedtime story to the little toddlers.
What a bunch of intellectual deficient buffoons.
Yes, she overdid the bedtime story acting job at times, I agree.
For what she get as a salary plus benefits a little makeover with a stylist would do wonders because she could be stunning, imo.
Perhaps she needs psychiatric help…
… and some lipstick!
I read the article. Now I know. Now I wish I didn’t. (Chalkboards? Really?)
If I may, not to be considered a prude, I understand that people have needs, but, if that story is true, its not ‘what’ he did, it’s ‘where’ he did it that is truly gross, imo.
All our politicians are just a media show for decades now making the wealthy richer and brainwashing the poor suckers to work for them.
Do you actually own anything?
If your real honest, no.
Others control what our politicians impose on us be it laws or massive amount regulations while other get exemptions or grants.
Definitely not a fair playing field with others controlling everything you do.
Then let it burn.
Interest rates are only low because they are printing the currency. Countries that no longer can issue currency like Zimbabwe, Venezuela, and Lebanon are not doing well. Trouble is the economically illiterate are not reading this blog.
Whats happening now is the same as when we got the communists flag of eastern canada. As long as the libs have their lips firmly attached to the dips asshole the dips will support them.
We are all going to die if we don’t vote Liberal.
OJ, just a reminder, WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE. It is the fate of all living human beings, animals, fish, birds, reptiles, etc. Even this planet will cease to exist as some point in time. In fact the whole damn universe will cease to exist. I look forward to the math theories that say I am wrong. Quantum something or other???
The only reason the sock monkey would demand air time to give an unnecessary speech, is likely because due to the lock down he hasn’t had a chance to go on one of his “love me” tours. He craves attention and he will get it even if he has to conscript an audience.
I purposely made sure the tv was off for the rest of the day when I heard when this “speech” was going to be broadcast.
Trudeau is attempting to appeal for women’s support (day care and kindergarten indoctrination). He’s layering on aboriginal concern so opponents can be labeled racist.
What a low opinion he must have for women. And aboriginals too.
when is the Turd going to git a kat, rub some fish broth on his ugly pus, and let the kat clean it up?
If The West doesnt seriously work at leaving now – then WE are stupid!
I want a new Country. western Canada!!

Too much candy: Man dies from eating bags of black licorice

A Massachusetts construction worker’s love of black licorice wound up costing him his life. Eating a bag and a half every day for a few weeks threw his nutrients out of whack and caused the 54-year-old man’s heart to stop, doctors reported Wednesday.
“Even a small amount of licorice you eat can increase your blood pressure a little bit,” said Dr. Neel Butala, a cardiologist at Massachusetts General Hospital who described the case in the New England Journal of Medicine.
The problem is glycyrrhizic acid, found in black licorice and in many other foods and dietary supplements containing licorice root extract. It can cause dangerously low potassium and imbalances in other minerals called electrolytes.

Eating as little as 2 ounces of black licorice a day for two weeks could cause a heart rhythm problem, especially for folks over 40, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warns.
“It’s more than licorice sticks. It could be jelly beans, licorice teas, a lot of things over the counter. Even some beers, like Belgian beers, have this compound in it,” as do some chewing tobaccos, said Dr. Robert Eckel, a University of Colorado cardiologist and former American Heart Association president. He had no role in the Massachusetts man’s care.
The death was clearly an extreme case. The man had switched from red, fruit-flavoured twists to the black licorice version of the candy a few weeks before his death last year. He collapsed while having lunch at a fast-food restaurant. Doctors found he had dangerously low potassium, which led to heart rhythm and other problems. Emergency responders did CPR and he revived but died the next day.
The FDA permits up to 3.1% of a food’s content to have glycyrrhizic acid, but many candies and other licorice products don’t reveal how much of it is contained per ounce, Butala said. Doctors have reported the case to the FDA in hope of raising attention to the risk.
Jeff Beckman, a spokesman for the Hershey Company, which makes the popular Twizzlers licorice twists, said in an email that “all of our products are safe to eat and formulated in full compliance with FDA regulations,” and that all foods, including candy, “should be enjoyed in moderation.”

The Turd mentioned that the second wave is upon us…
Well of course it is, last August, 70 international flights landed in Canada each having at least 1 Covid infected person, all were released into the general public promising to self-isolate, …ya sure !
China is deliberately re-infecting the world and will continue to do so until they get their one-world,
globalist agenda fully entrenched.
Ps.
Can we at least try the herd-immunity method of mitigation?
It worked for Sweden, with NO lock-downs.
Our Covid enabling leadership (Trudeau, Ford) all of them, need to be asked (WHY NOT) everyday.
Because…
The wearing of masks and social distancing method rammed down our throats is obviously (NOT WORKING) as evidenced by the
ever increasing number of Covid cases announced daily.
The problem with Sock Boys second wave, is the death rate remains low. Reason? Most getting it are under 45, the survival rate doesn’t compare with previous rates, as the average age of death is 79.
Trudeau’s message? Stay SCARED, VERY SCARED, I AM YOUR PROVIDER.
Bollocks!
I feel like I’m trapped in a foreign country, where the government has been taken over by incompetent aliens
I feel like I’m trapped in a foreign country, where the government has been taken over by incompetent aliens
It’s more like a cheap 1950’s black and white science fiction movie about some alien conquest. The problem is that Ed Wood is now our prime minister.
Ah but William, it is working, the masks are about control, about herding the little people where they want us to go, to do as we are told, like good little citizens. To be molded into compliant robots. Now the turd is talking about basic income for all, once we are all dependent on the government teat, we will do as they command, or we’ll be cut off. Just think, once they are paying us, then there will be digital currency. Of course we’ll still keep the Fiat…um’ real cash handy….until its just so bothersome, then they will have complete control over us all. Misbehave, or complain, you’ll be persuaded or coerced, or told to behave or else. Once they control us like that, they can also ostracize us if needed. You won’t even be able to spend any money, if they so desire. Retired? OK, at 70, you’ve had a comfortable five years on the take, now off to heaven with you, so we can replace you with a fresh robot er drone, er, slave, er, person.
What they will need are the peasants to serve them in the new world order, once your usefulness has expired, then you will also be expired. Its coming, slowly, yes, but its coming, why do you think they want to ban all the guns? At least, all the guns in the peasants hands, can’t have us getting all uppity huh!
The big plans he announced during the throne speech are areas of provincial responsibility. And there is no way he is going to get the provinces on board. Just more propaganda from our little fascist dictator.
Well, Doug of Ford has proven to be a happy little fat fascist. I used to be able to email him. I am no longer accepted as an authorized email address. Being critical just is not allowed, right or wrong. I can no longer email him because I no longer agree with him. Free speech right and taxpayer supported freaking web site. Doug, give me a call. I am the only living conservative in Canada.
According to Worldometers 1 person died of Covid today (or what is listed as today)
Why are we locked down?
MEMO TO ALL. There is no such freaking thing as a pandemic. Get your tiny minds around that and you just may come to a rational thought. The population of the planet is not being destroyed by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the planet is being destroyed by insane liberal socialists. Only very stupid people actually think the virus will kill us all. Trudeau is as dumb as a bag of rocks and if you are a liberal you should be both embarrassed and ashamed.
if you are a liberal you should be both embarrassed and ashamed
A liberal being embarrassed or ashamed of Prinz Dummkopf is asking a bit much. They’re overjoyed that someone so lacking in talent and intelligence has accomplished so much.

The politics of a throne speech in a pandemic (11minutes … if you can take it)

… and we’re paying for this?
A little reported part of the throne speech is Adolf’s desire to clamp down on so called hate speech on the internet/websites. What exactly does that mean??
OJ, I think it means, any speech that “They” disagree with, that’s us here on SDA by the way.
Eventually, I see these websites and blogs as outlawed, because we’re all deviants right? We are only promoting hate and racism here right? We’ll all end up as underground resistance bloggers. Not much change from now, except we’ll need to hide it from the thought and language police.
Admit it, nobody watched it .
I know I didn’t.
I just heard a snippet of the lisping idiot substitute drama teacher’s breathless voice repeating some 90’s Oprahism and had to concenentrate on keeping both eyes open while driving.
Cringiest asshole ever and we still have to argue with dumb Trump deranged Trudeau supporters at parties until they get offended, indignant and we’re scolded to “shut up” because they’re losing their shit.
I would leave Toronto in a heartbeat for out west if Alberta and Saskafishingandhuntingparadise separate.
Looks like Angry Adolf’s lapdog leader of the NDP is going to support the government. Adolf’s CBC is excited that Adolf made changes in order to appease the socialist leader. It will just cost taxpayers a few billion more dollars.
Turdholes performance last night was a well rehearsed political advertisement aided and abetted by the hopelessly corrupt corporate Globalist Media and the preposterous assholes of the CBC/Liberal State Media. Are we supposed to believe that Prince Shitforbrains and the Media aren’t working together? Imagine Harper attempting to take over the television air waves because he has something important to say ( but you”ll have to wait to hear the content, because its a surprise, d’uh) and the Media simply complying with it ? Not an F-ing chance! This country is beyond a bad joke. I struggled through the text of what the Retard acted out before the cameras last night because I cannot listen to that lisping half-wit speak for any longer than a few seconds…. Its the equivalent of watching a lobotomized chimp humping a doorknob.
Interesting that the Liberal party view of Turdholeland and what best defines Turdholeland in the warped Liberal mind is George Soros style open borders, gay activism and you guessed it, “bilingualism”… to LIberals thats what Turdholeland represents… its important to remember that “bilingualism” is Liberal/Media code speak for, french. So according to the Liberals and their Media Turdholeland is a post nation State without a border full of fwench speaking Queer activists. Behold the future of Turdholeland. No mention that from 1867 to 1969 none of these Liberal Party definitions of Canada even existed. Canada was an English nation with English speaking institutions, including the British Crown Colony of Queerbek, it had defined borders and committing homosexual acts was against the law. Liberals don’t believe Canada existed before gay revolutionary Peeair the Turdhole took control and ruled over the nation like a crazed cult leader.
