Sun- Chinese marathon runner disqualified for chain-smoking through entire race
Being in good enough shape to complete a full 26.2-mile marathon at 52 years old is impressive. To do it in 3 hours and 33 minutes is even more impressive. To do so while chain-smoking the entire race is downright insane.

How pure a life do you think you’re gonna have to lead so that these demented harpies are going to leave you alone?’
They behave as though someone was getting a slice, and they need to hide it.
First, we have senior public servants, Cameron MacDonald and Antonio Utano, giving critical testimony about the ArriveCan affair on November 7, 2023. Their testimony was not only forthright but also directly critical of O’Gorman, Doan, and indirectly, Minister Mendicino. This is where things start getting fishy.
Shortly after this testimony, on November 27, 2023, MacDonald and Utano were made aware of an investigation by the Canadian Border Services Agency. Genuis is rightly suspicious of the timing – just a few weeks after their critical testimony, they’re suddenly under investigation. It stinks of retaliation, doesn’t it?
O’Gorman claims that this investigation was part of an ongoing one from November 2022, but the timing of the informants being notified is suspiciously convenient. Genuis is digging for the truth here: were these new allegations or part of the ongoing investigation? The answers are vague and unsatisfactory.

Alex Berenson- Yet again, the better we get at “harm reduction,” the more people overdose and die
British Columbia’s “Safer Opioid Supply” program included lenient rules to encourage users to join. Doctors could write prescriptions even for people at high risk of overdose. Addicts did not have to enter treatment or even agree to counseling to participate. Canada’s national health insurance program even paid for the drugs.

January 16, 2023: Trudeau snubs Moe at Saskatoon photo-op
On Monday, Trudeau and Saskatoon Mayor Charlie Clark toured the Vital Metals facility in Saskatoon, speaking with workers and getting an inside look at the process. […] Moe released a statement earlier in the day saying his Saskatchewan Party government was not aware of the prime minister’s visit to the facility.

In an alarming turn of events, the Supreme Court of Canada has removed the mandatory minimum sentence for the crime of child luring, effectively placing the rights of the perpetrator above those of their victims, ignorant of the damages they and their families suffer that surely will last a lifetime.
Child luring falls under criminal code s. 172.1 and speaks to contacting or attempting to contact someone under the age of 18 with the intent to commit sexual exploitation, incest, child pornography, or sexual assault.
It is the communications that occur between the perpetrator and victim with the intended purpose of committing other offences against that child.
It is considered a hybrid offence, which allows prosecutors to choose to proceed by indictment (for more serious offences) or by summary conviction (for less serious).
The previous mandatory minimum sentence, deemed so egregious as to be a breach of the offender’s Section 12 Charter rights, was imprisonment of one year if found guilty on indictment, and six months if found guilty on summary conviction.
Inflation has been a big problem the world over the past few years. But nowhere is it so apparent as in Canada’s housing market:
New data from the world’s largest central bank serves a reminder of just how batsh*t crazy Canada’s real estate bubble is. Housing bubble experts from the US Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas (Dallas Fed) released its latest update of global home prices in Q3 2023. Most G7 countries moved in a similar fashion, rising with 2020 rate cuts and have shown recent moderation. However, zooming out reveals Canada’s real estate bubble is nothing like any other G7 country. It puts the peaks seen in US and Japanese bubbles to shame, predating its recent population boom narrative.

The transcript of Javier Milei’s speech to the World Economic Forum is a breath of fresh air in a world that badly needs it. I have not seen a political leader as upfront about the philosophical concepts that define a culture of liberty since Margaret Thatcher. Let’s hope he can make some progress and set an example that is emulated elsewhere.
Do not be intimidated by the political caste or by parasites who live off the state. Do not surrender to a political class that only wants to stay in power and retain its privileges. You are social benefactors. You are heroes. You are the creators of the most extraordinary period of prosperity we’ve ever seen.
Let no one tell you that your ambition is immoral.

Via Tom Fitton; Federal Government Flagged Transactions Using Terms like “MAGA” and “TRUMP” for Financial Institutions
January 17, 2024 WASHINGTON, D.C. – New documents obtained by the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government reveal that the federal government flagged terms like “MAGA” and “TRUMP” for financial institutions if Americans used those phrases when completing transactions. Individuals who shopped at stores like Cabela’s or Dick’s Sporting Goods, or purchased religious texts like a bible, may also have had their transactions flagged. This kind of pervasive financial surveillance, carried out in coordination with and at the request of federal law enforcement, into Americans’ private transactions is alarming and raises serious concerns about the FBI’s respect for fundamental civil liberties.
