Gets taken to the woodshed.

Good times.

Update: I’ve been watching the debate on CPAC and a Liberal member has introduced a desperation amendment so they can crawl out of this hole… I guess the reports of frantic backroom negotiations were on target. developing…

OOPS! The BQ is complaining that THE PAPER NAPKIN HAS NO VERSION IN FRENCH. LOL … and debate is suspended.

Update 2: And they’re back… and the unilateral recognition of “the state of Palestine” is gone. Fracking delicious.

The circus has descended into shitshow.

Brian Lilley wraps up: Utter chaos.

Your Tax Dollars At Work

Via @visegrad24: One of the main gangs in Haiti just released a high quality propaganda video



In this video, we can see men in uniform, well armed, equipped with almost new vehicles displaying a logo displaying a dinosaur head, the symbol of this criminal group. This raised countless questions. The simplest and certainly the most important: where did these materials come from and how were they able to arrive so easily at their destination? In a country like Haiti where no institution functions, the people will never have an answer.

Will a First Nation-owned pipeline be without protests and opposition?

Can’t imagine why oil shippers demand explanation from Trans Mountain for pipeline cost overruns, can you?

B.C. First Nation and Western LNG partner to purchase natural gas pipeline project. Can they succeed in bringing a major pipeline in on time and on budget, or will they face the same perils as Trans Mountain (above) and Coastal GasLink? Will other First Nations do all they can to halt it, like GasLink? Will they destroy equipment and raid camps?

US Bureau of Land Management accepts bids for the sale of Federal Helium System. FYI the US Govt getting out of #helium is what’s driving Saskatchewan’s burgeoning industry

Just Leave It Unlocked and Running…

…with a full tank of gas. And don’t forget to leave drinks and snacks in the passenger seat.

Ian Miles Cheong- Canadian police advise home owners to leave their car fobs outside so armed thieves can steal them more easily without confronting home owners.

Update: More here

The Line- The police have given up. They’ve surrendered

And their best advice to you is to do the same, if you know what’s good for you.

Canada’s Fast March to Totalitarianism

Trudeau Demands Life In Prison For Speech Crimes:

To protect children from sexual exploitation, Canada must pass the Online Harms Act, says Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government. “I am the parent of two young boys,” said Justice Minister Arif Virani. “I will do whatever I can to ensure their digital world is as safe as the neighborhood we live in. Children are vulnerable online. They need to be protected from online sexual exploitation, hate, and cyberbullying.”

But Virani’s bill is totally unnecessary to protect children. Its real goal is to allow judges to sentence adults to prison for life for things they’ve said and for up to a year for crimes they haven’t committed but that the government fears they might commit in the future.

As such, Trudeau and Virani’s Online Harms Act (Bill C-63) is the most shocking of all the totalitarian, illiberal, and anti-Enlightenment pieces of legislation that have been introduced in the Western world in decades.

Winds of Change

Think of it as the tail end of love bombing.  Or as Mark Knofler once said, “Sometimes you’re the windshield, sometimes you’re the bug”.

UnHerd- The ugly return of homophobia Bigotry is coming from the progressive establishment

Whereas we have always been accustomed to this kind of thing from the far-Right — one recalls Nick Griffin’s remark on Question Time about how he finds the sight of two men kissing “really creepy” — but now the most objectionable anti-gay comments arise in online spheres occupied by gender ideologues, from those who claim to be progressive, Left-wing and “on the right side of history”. The significant difference is that the word “cis” has been added to the homophobe’s lexicon.

End State Diversity

Haiti spirals to collapse;

Over the weekend, the violence in the capital Port-au-Prince ramped up once again. Heavily armed gangs attacked the National Palace and set part of the Interior Ministry on fire with petrol bombs.

It comes after a sustained attack on the international airport, which remains closed to all flights – including one carrying Prime Minister Ariel Henry.

He tried to fly back to Haiti from the United States last week, but his plane was refused permission to land. He was then turned away from the neighbouring Dominican Republic too.

Mr Henry is now stuck in Puerto Rico, unable to set foot in the nation he ostensibly leads.

Among those who did manage to get into the stricken Caribbean nation, though, was a group of US military personnel.

Following a request from the US State Department, the Pentagon confirmed it had carried out an operation to, as it put it, “augment the security” of the US embassy in Port-au-Prince and airlift all non-essential staff to safety.

Soon after, the EU said it had evacuated all of its diplomats, fleeing a nation mired in violence and facing its biggest humanitarian crisis since the 2010 earthquake.

Millions of Haitians, however, simply don’t have that luxury. They’re trapped, no matter how bad things get.

QOTD:

“The law contains 19 sections aimed at helping minority groups”

https://thehill.com/opinion/4517470-dei-killed-the-chips-act/

The Biden administration recently promised it will finally loosen the purse strings on $39 billion of CHIPS Act grants to encourage semiconductor fabrication in the U.S. But less than a week later, Intel announced that it’s putting the brakes on its Columbus factory. The Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) has pushed back production at its second Arizona foundry. The remaining major chipmaker, Samsung, just delayed its first Texas fab.

This is not the way companies typically respond to multi-billion-dollar subsidies. So what explains chipmakers’ apparent ingratitude? In large part, frustration with DEI requirements embedded in the CHIPS Act.

Commentators have noted that CHIPS and Science Act money has been sluggish. What they haven’t noticed is that it’s because the CHIPS Act is so loaded with DEI pork that it can’t move.

Haiti On Brink Of Collapse

Actually, well past the brink. A hundred million Trudeau bucks later

The Haitian capital has been gripped by a wave of highly coordinated gang attacks on law enforcement and state institutions in what gang leader Jimmy Cherizier has described as an attempt to overthrow Prime Minister Ariel Henry’s government.

Armed groups have burned down police stations and released thousands of inmates from two prisons, and Cherizier has warned of “a civil war that will end in genocide” if the prime minister does not step down.

Henry has had difficulty returning to the country since leaving for Kenya last week to sign an agreement for a Kenyan-led multinational mission to restore security back home.

He is now believed to be in Puerto Rico, two sources with knowledge of Henry’s movements in the Caribbean island told CNN, after the Dominican Republic refused to let his flight land.

Whee!!! Cannibalism! (Source seems sketchy, sure, but this is Haiti).

More.

The Honourable Member From Air India

Let’s check in on Jagmeet’s Jew-hating fellow travelers;

Veteran NDP MLA Selina Robinson just sent a letter to her caucus colleagues telling them she’s leaving the NDP and will sit as an independent. This follows Robinson being forced by Eby to resign from cabinet for controversial comments she made about pre-1948 Palestine.

Selina Robinson told reporters she’s concerned about incidents of anti-semitism inside the @bcndp caucus and when she brought up anti-semitism training she was rebuffed. She feels she was punished for her hurtful comments but the same standard wasn’t applied to other MLAs.
