Yes: I’ve been writing for months that the real obstacle to getting Biden out of the way isn’t procedure — it’s the first lady of the United States.

And it’s racist of you to ask.
Calgary Herald- City of Calgary says nothing of busted crisis-causing water pipe
On the sixth day of water restrictions and with another week before we find out when we’re back to normal, it’s the moment for the simple question. When was the last time the City of Calgary inspected this segment of pipe, this particular pipe that is no more? And when the City of Calgary inspected this pipe what did they find?
The question is handed off to Francois Bouchard, a big shot at the city. “I don’t actually have any specific data to share with you.”

Blacklocks mistake in going before the Federal Court was not being the Toronto Star.
The judge ruled Blacklock’s terms were “plainly visible” and clearly prohibited password sharing without permission. Blacklock’s even sent the password buyer two written notices with a number to call if they intended to “share or distribute content.” The judge dismissed it as irrelevant.
What passwords does it apply to?
Any kind at all. The rule applies to any ordinary password to websites, newspapers, video and music services, library databases, scientific or technical journals, peer-reviewed periodicals, you name it.
That part will get fixed in no time.

If someone’s going to question whether a $510 million legal fee is excessive or not, why not ask the same question about the $10 billion settlement that triggered the fees in the first place?
Two First Nations have launched a court application against the lawyers who helped bring forward a $10-billion settlement with Canada and Ontario, saying the $510 million they’re set to be paid is too much.
“The legal fee is extremely over-the-top,” said Garden River First Nation Chief Karen Bell.
She said she has an “obligation to seek accountability and transparency,” and the application should not disrupt payments to beneficiaries. Those payments are scheduled to start flowing in August.

Blacklocks- Paid $233K For Ghostwriters
“How much did the Government of Canada pay to publish news written by government employees?” Records showed the Revenue Agency paid as much as $1,000 apiece to distribute faked news stories.
The ghostwritten articles meet the federal definition of fake news. The Department of Canadian Heritage in a 2017 Memorandum To The Minister described fake news as “state-sponsored” content.
Great Success!
Reason- California Is Doubling Down on Banning Plastic Bags
“Last year, Californians threw away more plastic bags, by weight, than when the law first passed,” according to a recent New York Times article, which called it “an environmental rule that backfired and inadvertently made the matter worse.”
Two bills are now making their way through the Capitol. Senate Bill 1053 and Assembly Bill 2236 would also ban the thicker plastic bags that replaced the thinner previously-banned bags.
The Most Interesting Man In The World
Hunter Biden being convicted of a firearms charge is the ultimate red herring of red herrings.
The DOJ allowed the statute of limitations expire on his most serious tax charges, buried evidence of the Bidens’ foreign bribery allegations, and attempted to give Hunter a sweetheart deal with broad immunity.
David Weiss wouldn’t go after him on the serious tax charges or on FARA because all of that would lead back to the shady business dealings involving his father.
Instead, they went after him for a much lesser charge, where the evidence was way too insurmountable to ignore, so they can scream “nobody is above the law” when they put President Trump in jail.

When The FBI Does It, That Means That It’s Not Illegal
Last week, on June 8th, the whistleblower advocacy firm Empower Oversight sent a letter to Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz, along with a packet of documents. The company represents an FBI employee whose security clearance was revoked after he attended the January 6th protests. No one disputes the Bureau’s right to investigate, but the Bureau’s Security Division did more than that, sending a bizarre questionnaire to the employee’s co-workers.
The FBI sent at least three co-workers a list of queries that began with the instruction, “You have a duty to reply to the questions… Should you refuse to answer or fail to reply fully and truthfully, action against your security clearance may be undertaken…”
Co-workers were then asked if they heard the employee:
“Vocalize support for President Trump?”
“Vocalize objection to Covid-19 vaccination?”

Saskatchewan launches high school oil and gas courses to encourage students to join industry
High school students in Saskatchewan will soon be able to take Grade 11 and 12 level classes in oil and gas. The class will be half online, and half in the field. How that second part is going to work out remains to be seen. This is in-depth coverage on this new initiative to encourage young people to join the energy industry.
My 17 year old son will likely be one of the first to sign up.

The Libranos: It’s Good To Be McKinsey
In a stunning display of government largesse, Auditor General Karen Hogan dropped a bombshell at Meeting No. 128 of the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates. Her report pulled back the curtain on a festering pit of crony capitalism under the Trudeau administration. Brace yourselves, folks, because what you’re about to hear is jaw-dropping.
Since 2015, contracts with the consulting firm McKinsey have skyrocketed to an eye-popping $191 million. Let that sink in for a moment. That’s a meteoric rise from a measly one million dollars in the years prior under Harper. So, what changed? Did McKinsey suddenly become a hundred times more competent, or does it have to do with whose in power?
Hogan’s report doesn’t dance around the issue. Oh no, it dives headfirst into the cesspool of corruption swirling around Trudeau’s inner circle. A staggering 70% of contracts with McKinsey were handed out non-competitively, totaling a mind-boggling $118 million. And if that wasn’t enough to make your blood boil, get this: almost half of these contracts lacked the necessary documentation to justify their existence. That’s right, folks, your tax dollars are being thrown around like confetti at a Liberal fundraiser, with little to no accountability.
But wait, it gets worse. Hogan’s audit uncovered a disturbing pattern of government departments using Crown corporations as their personal piggy banks to avoid pesky things like competitive procurement requirements. It’s crony capitalism 101, folks, and Trudeau’s minions are playing the game with gusto.
Shut up and pay your capital gains tax.
