  1. I’ve condensed Michael Harris’ latest foaming-at-the-mouth rant so you don’t have to read it:

    “The unmaking of Canada… dictatorship… Steve… hated… raping… hysterical… draconian… George W. Bush… Creepy Canada under Harper… Mississippi with lashings… ignorant… chilling… Stephen Harper’s Kool-Aid… Steve…dictatorships… xenophobia…mendacious…bigotry… xenophobic… bully… soccer yobs… slandered CBC employees… robocalls… perpetual war… cheating at elections… Golgotha.”

    Get help, Harris.

  2. At least 500 people turn up at Muslim cemetery for burial of Copenhagen gunman.
    Yes, that’s in Copenhagen.

    “The funeral prayer was so well attended that many people had to stay outside the building.”

    Hmmm … family. Must be breeding like rats.

  4. Looks like Wynne still has that paedophile Ben Levin still pulling the strings. Absolutely disgusting! If tge parents don’t march in the streets to stop this, it’s the kids who will suffer.

  5. Just a thought for Friday night. The Chimp-in-chief says cAGW is the greatest threat to America. I say nay. In 3.75 billion years, the Andromeda galaxy will collide with our Milky Way. Can’t wait for the fireworks then. But then we won’t be around anyways, as Sol will go super nova before then, vaporizing everything out to Saturn. Time for another scotch.

  6. He’s certainly a heart-throb (?), to be sure: on the other hand, I’m pretty much certain that folks here in Ontario will be planting their vote with the local guy — Stephen J. Harper (great book on the hockey “syndrome”, actually), plus we have…oh, never mind!

  7. Harris sounds as though he’s ready to pop a blood vessel.
    (I hope Harper has GOOD bodyguards.)

  8. Katharine Hayhoe is an Associate Professor in the Public Administration program at Texas Tech University and Director of the Climate Science Center at Texas Tech, part of the South-Central Climate Science Center.
    Does an Associate Prof in Public Administration count as a scientist now? She doesn’t tell us what her PhD is in. She is lauded as a communicator not a scientist. Smoke and mirrors

  9. IMO Harris has a sick obsession with Stephen Harper. Harris was adamantly against Bush and the Iraq
    war. Harper’s opinion at the time, when it was thought they had weapons of mass destruction,we should stand with our traditional allies on that front. Harris has been seething ever since.
    It’s sad to see such tripe coming from an intelligent, compassionate person I thought Harris to be.

  10. The irony in Wynne’s reasoning for mandating the new curriculum was that there was some kind of associated risk if the information wasn’t provided in the classroom. Not that it was necessary to teach it, but that the kids will see it and she wants to make sure a university trained expert would be the one to give it to them.
    Heres what I suggest. Seeing as the criteria is risk and if the information is out there perhaps its time the curriculum was updated for history, geography, and the social studies to include information on the dangers of radical islam.
    …and any objections based on morality or religious belief can be ignored.

  11. @Exiled Maritimer: You can go to her web page for more details on her qualifications and career. According to that site, she has a Phd in “atmospheric science” from the University of Illinois. Her qualifications overall appear to make her very qualified to speak on scientific matters, including climate.

  12. “atmospheric science” Yeah. She figured out that when the dew point and the temp are the same, with an RH above 50%, clouds form. She’s about as qualified to speak on climate as my mail girl is. Or Mann for that matter.

  13. A Canadian supporter of Islamic State in his own words
    http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2015/02/20/a-canadian-supporter-of-islamic-state-in-his-own-words.html#

    Another reason I started studying Islam is because it’s not just a religion as you can compare to Christianity or mainstream Judaism but it’s a full-encompassing way of life that includes a financial system, a system of law, as well as religious beliefs and practices.

    In other words, it’s a political ideology. Stop calling it a religion.

    “Trudeau stood up by controversial guest at Chinese New Year event”
    “the Chinese state media CCTV and the local multicultural channel OMNI were positioned to capture the money shot of Mr. Trudeau with Mr. Luo, a moment meant to evoke a historical echo, given Mr. Trudeau’s father’s storied closeness with the autocratic country. Ultimately, the federal Liberal Leader arrived; the ambassador, however, was a no-show.”

    “Bitter Siberian winds to blame for Canadian chill”
    “Cold wind from Russia’s frigid Siberian region has swept into Canada and plunged parts of the country into near record-setting low temperatures, while dumping up to 250 centimetres of snow on parts of the Maritimes since January.
    Southern and Central Ontario remain under extreme cold weather alerts, as does a large section of southeastern Quebec. Weather experts say the cold is due to a temporary, but lengthy shift in the jet stream that’s drawing Arctic air from Siberia and the North West Territories down over Central and Eastern Canada.”
