They want your cars and your burgers…
As Lance noted earlier, the Liberals are moving at full speed to turn Canada back into a Trudeaupian dreamland. What will that mean for you and your life? Get ready to be “nudged” into driving less and giving up burgers.

As was mentioned to me recently, and to which I found myself in agreement, “I hope the incrementalist Conservatives are paying attention. The liberals are slashing and burning their way back to Trudeaupia and they’ve only been in power for what – a week?”

The Inner Circle
Yesterday, the CBC’s Grand Poobah Peter Mansbridge wrote about the difficulties he encountered in trying to gain access, as a diligent newsman, to the “inner Trudeau circle” for the purposes of doing “an ‘access’ documentary” of the new Prime Minister.
Uh-oh: Turns out there’s some, uhh, footage from 2005 showing Peter Mansbridge officiating at the wedding of Justin Trudeau’s Director of Communications.
Yup, it’s so hard for the CBC to get access to the Liberal inner circle these days.

Update: The Toronto Sun has picked up the story.
Really, it was inevitable.
Oh, Shiny Prime Minister!
Now they tell us: “This is the most curious appointment since Caligula named his horse as consul…”
Why Academia Seems So Stupid
Of course we don’t recognize this or view it that way since we are on the “good” side of 100. People between 90 and 110 are “normal” and it is those who are above 110 that are the statistical freaks in a good way. But if we were to not look at absolute scores, but relative scores to your average STEM major (or, cough, cough, economist), dealing with your average “college educated liberal arts major” is indeed as painful as dealing with a mentally impaired adult.

On the eleventh day, of the eleventh month.

If the media reported on Harper’s first day like they reported on Trudeau’s.

Iran has stopped dismantling centrifuges in two uranium enrichment plants, state media reported on Tuesday, days after conservative lawmakers complained to President Hassan Rouhani that the process was too rushed.

Justin’s “struggling middle class” vs Record Auto Sales (note SUVs, pick-ups)
Our new PM on November 4:
…
Our country faces many real and immediate challenges – from a struggling middle class…
One aspect of reality:
…
Canadians registered more new vehicles in the first nine months of 2015 than during the same period of any prior year.
Record auto sales volume in 2015 is powered by a boom in the SUV/crossover market and very healthy pickup truck sales…
Even Mother Corpse ran a–business–story:
Canadian auto sales up 5.1% in October
Light trucks dominate, but Toyota says it’s still selling hybrids
Canadian consumers bought 163,053 new vehicles in October, with sales up 5.1 per cent from last year, according to DesRosiers Automotive Consultants.
Canadian auto sales are on track to top 1.9 million units in 2015, setting a new record and proving consumers are still willing to spend despite somewhat slower economy. That would follow on record sales for 2014.
Once again, light trucks are the hot sellers, with more than 104,300 rolling off the lot in October…
Just wondering why these facts are treated by the MSM as strictly business news not relevant to things generally or middlingly; are all those trucks and SUVs being bought by mainly the rich and poor? Struggle on, eh?
Indulgences
James Delingpole:
Bjørn “Skeptical Environmentalist” Lomborg has been doing the math on global warming – and it’s worse than we thought.
Even if every nation in the world adheres to its climate change commitments by 2030 the only difference it will make to “global warming” by the end of this century will be to reduce the world’s temperatures by 0.048°C (0.086°F).
The only numbers that matter to the alarmists are the trillions of dollars of taxpayers’ money that will be transferred to internationalist, government-connected rent seekers.
A Billion is a lot of crap
In fact, it’s too big a number to think of, let alone eight of them.
So, some perspective:
| Total Amount of Sewage in litres | 8,000,000,000.00 | |
| No. of flushes at 6 litres / flush | 1,333,333,333.33 | |
| Minutes in a year | 525,600.00 | |
| No. of flushes / minute | 2,536.78 |
In other words, twenty-five hundred people flushing their black-water once every minute for a full year. Yes, that’s real pollution, as opposed to the made-up kind.
