What an absolutely delightful Victoria Day Weekend TREAT!!!
Canadians need brass balls. I thought we had them already.
Great work Wendy Sullivan and Mark Steyn.
Conservatism is alive and well in Canada, alas,
mostly on the internet.
No thanks to our corporate left leaning MSM.
Wendy indicated she would work on getting an interview with Barbara Amiel to re-tell her epiphany form a communist family to conservatism.
Great story there too!
Poor Mark Steyn.
It must be depressing to constantly be telling everyone that the values that built the greatest society humanity has ever known are being thoughtlessly tossed on the garbage heap.
It’s nice that he’s often funny about it … it’s a comfort … but it doesn’t diminish the sadness of the message.
I often wonder why otherwise sensible would do this to themselves, but I never come up with a convincing explanation.
I wish Mark, and others, would address this question more often.
It’s easy, and often fun, to snipe at fools, but what is it that prompts them to be so foolish ?
It seems puzzling how the supposedly smartest, best educated people on the planet can steer into these jackpots. As an example, consider how the ever more highly educated members of the print media slavishly supported every silly educational fad that came along which replaced real achievement standards in primary and secondary schools so that after several generations newspapers that were little more than leftist drivel jammed between multi pages of car ads had nothing going for them to attract newly graduating young people as regular readers.
Perhaps the common thread is that these top people are not stupid, that they are intent on destroying from the inside those institutions that could one day turn around and begin to seriously challenge or obstruct their future plans.
pok, I think like you do on that question. Why the hell are we of the West doing this to ourselves?!
pok “I often wonder why otherwise sensible would do this to themselves, but I never come up with a convincing explanation.”
THAT is the question of the times !! The answer, in many cases, in my opinion, is media indoctrination.
The braiwashers are not the Borg.
It is NOT futile to resist.
Stop the defeatist attitude, grow a pair, let nobody define you
Thanks for tuning in, gang.
Set You Free is right, though sadly I only ever think that way when I’m in an optimistic mood. Other times I just want to shrug it off and accept the end of civilization.
I guess maybe we need to shore each other up.

I’m not certain that treating the symptoms – which is what I believe others mean by “resisting” – will cure the disease.
It’s pretty persistent.
It needs to be defined, isolated, and eradicated.
I’d hate to see my kids have to choose between 1984 and barbarism.
If it comes to that, barbarism has at least one thing to recommend it: it is the condition from which the glories of civilization emerged.
RG:
All of us have doubts.
All fear is about fear of the future.
That is precisely what the enemies of truth prey on.
pok:
The ‘progressive’ agenda is quite simple to understand.
It’s fundamental belief is that humanity can be evolved.
It’s methodology also evolved, from concepts such as eugenics (in which humanity could reach a higher plane through the elimination of those with inferior genes) through the master race theory.
There are several apparitions today and each is indentifiable by its common anti-human theme, since its practitioners consider themselves to be above humanity, which they consider to be stupid.
That was great! What a highly amusing show.
Good show with lots of guts thier RG for asking him.
Why not feed the fear of the future with some creative projects
The Myth: That all AGW people who are obsessed with temperature & Shit theory are destined to an after live (reincarnation) as talking Anal Thermometers.
Pro Active: Organize an International seminar for those who suffer Pyromaniac symptoms. Schedule it to take place in LA California during the fire season. The politically correct Program will hi-light the properties of the least likely propellants, starting from H20, Etc. Then bore the participants with helpful Psycho- babble
Think Positive! Fight Back!
