Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

I prefer water cannons. Cheaper and more effective.
Ha ha ha ha ha … all on a platform of the ubiquitous Bobcat tractor … every construction site in America can be retrofitted to bulldoze the eco-activists who try to shut down their project. The perfect answer to California RESIST Trump RIOTS … going all Rachael Corrie on the masked Anarchists ! and unhinged HER supporters.
All armored vehicles are vulnerable in city street.
Lasers and Molotov cocktails deter the foot soldiers. Heavy rubble makes even progress difficult for the wheels.
Parked cars set on fire are tricky to get past.Heavy stuff dropped from the high buildings can make life difficult.
ETC.
I would assume that a tracked vehicle would be much more effective.
I do remember the Ringling Bros. circus coming to town when I was a kid. They had D-2 and D-4 Cats with rubber pads on the grousers not to mess up asphalt. Get a D-8 with rubberized tracks, a blade, an armored cab and an experienced dozer operator from Fort Mac at the controls, and the anti-Trump crowd will be fleeing the unit like rats running from a barn fire!
I do remember reading this story about an Italian named Aurelio Tassone who used the blade on a Cat D-8 to bury Japanese machine gun nests WWII. I read this in a Caterpillar history book many years ago. This quote is from Wikipedia.
”It was during the landing on Treasury Island in the Solomons, on 28 November 1943, that Fireman 1st Class Aurelio Tassone, USNR, of the 87th Naval Construction Battalion created that legendary figure of the Seabee astride his bulldozer rolling over enemy positions. Tassone was driving his bulldozer ashore during the landing when Lieutenant Charles E. Turnbull, CEC, USNR, told him a Japanese pillbox was holding up the advance from the beach. Tassone drove his dozer toward the pillbox, using the blade as a shield, while Lieutenant Turnbull provided covering fire with his carbine. Under continuous heavy fire, Tassone crushed the pillbox with the dozer blade, killing all 12 of its occupants. For this act Tassone was awarded the Silver Star.” End of Quote.
I wonder how many Cat dozers that story sold!!

Why is swamp queen Jamie Gorelick advising Jared Kushner?
But the stunning part is the name of the ethics advisor. The same person also advises Ivanka’s husband, Jared Kushner, who does have a formal position as a senior White House advisor.
This new advisor’s name is Jamie Gorelick.
Gorelick is a hardcore Clinton fan. When FBI Director James Comey reopened the case of Hillary’s email servers last fall, it was Gorelick who led the effort to discredit him. In the 1990s, she served as Deputy Attorney General under Bill Clinton — that’s the number two spot at the Department of Justice.
It was Gorelick who put up the infamous “wall” between law enforcement and the intelligence community that prevented information-sharing between the two sectors and may have cleared the way for the terrorists’ 9/11 planning to escape detection. According to veteran journalist Jack Cashill, an FBI agent said at the time: “Someday someone will die — and wall or not — the public will not understand why we were not more effective.”
Following that horrific day, Gorelick insinuated her way on to the 9-11 Commission, where she deftly channeled blame for the deadly attacks away from herself and Bill Clinton
She was the second-in-command at Clinton’s legendarily ethics-challenged Justice Department but no one seems to care.

More than half are suicide. Much of the rest are Somalians killing each other.
1) Without guns, most of the suicides will still happen.
2) Don’t allow your kids to be gay. Despite all the feel-good crap, the stigma of being gay is still here and gay males have a brutally high suicide rate.
3) I never feared guns in my kid’s hands. Your kid’s friends, from homes without guns, are the killers. Lock em up – the guns that is.

It must be spring here in Edmonton.
A pair of Canada geese that I’ve seen in my apartment complex over the past 2 or 3 years appear to be back. It’s quite a sight to see them walking along the roof of one of the low-rises, looking across the neighbourhood like monarchs surveying their domains. And, yes, they can make quite a racket but, as far as I’m concerned, it’s music to my ears.
I’ve also noticed that the rabbits that come onto the grounds are slowly changing colour, though, because of the reduced snow cover, they are quite conspicuous.
Finally, I heard the neighbourhood squirrel making noise for the first time this year.
Despite those signs, the weather doesn’t seem to be co-operating very much. As I’m writing this, Environment Canada’s official temperature is 1 C. Then again, I suppose the critters are properly dressed for it.

As you have probably suspected, Tesla owners don’t buy the cars because they want to ride around in a well-appointed automobile, they are virtue signalling.
Recalls, Problems: Just What Does It Take To Make Tesla Owners Mad?
This forgiveness also extended to the build quality on the Model S and X which Power concluded was far short of a conventional automaker, particularly considering the vehicles evaluated were priced at $140,000.
“There were body panel gaps, damaged trim, misalignments, tears in the seats. Some of the seats weren’t working properly,” she said. “There are a lot of things not as thought out as well and executed as well as a traditional OEM.”
But that wasn’t a big deal to the owners. Rizk said the owners don’t see Tesla as an automaker so much as a technology company that happens to produce cars.
“And they felt they are part of a movement to be greener and be environmentally friendly by purchasing this vehicle,” she said.
The caveat in the liberal plan on marijana is that it will still have a law on the books that make possession a criminal offense.
All the advocates wanted was to change the law so that simple possession was not a criminal offense….so they said.
What juthtin wants is to make sure the criminal organizations don’t profit from the sale…cause government doesn’t like competition.
Has anyone heard juthtin say simple possession would be struck from the law books or that its the intent to limit supply to only the government approved source..sort of how that government run healthcare works.

“Kambalny eruption a ‘pure surprise’ – Videos”
“First major eruption in 600 years
Although a smaller eruption was reported 248 years ago during the reign of Catherine the Great, this is the first major eruption at the Kambalny volcano on Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula in 600 years.
“It is a pure surprise for us. We continue the monitoring and will analyze possible threats as data come in,” Olga Girina, the head of the special Kamchatka Volcanic Eruption Response Team (KVERT), told TASS news agency.
“The volcano is under our close supervision, but it is hard to say what will happen next,” said Girina.”

CBC now labels comments criticizing Islam as “Islamophobic”
some of the “Islamophobic” things said at the meeting regarding Muslim prayers in public schools:
“You’re implementing an Islamic dominance rule in this country. That’s what you’re doing. We support Canadian values. No beheadings. No female genital mutilation. No child marriage. We don’t allow that in Canada. That’s what this books [Quran] says. We don’t religion in schools. The money dollar [from Saudi Arabia] is your pocket making decision for you. Mohammad the pedophile, and a warlord and a rapist. [Religion] does not belong in schools. Go to Pakistan. We will be in a Sharia [Islamic] Law state. It’s a book of hate [the Quran]. Islam will kill you. Islam will rape. Free speech. Free speech.”
While some of these comments may be considered over-the-top, they’re tame compared to what’s being preached in Canadian mosques, such as calling for Jews to be murdered. Nothing said at this school board meeting remotely compares.

“How Trump is rolling back Obama’s legacy
During President Trump’s first year in office, Congress and his administration plan to review, revoke and overwrite key parts of his predecessor’s domestic legacy.
As of March 27, here are the Obama-era rules and regulations impacted by:
Executive actions
Cabinet-level agency decisions
Congressional Review Acts
New legislation”
“Many of Donald Trump’s campaign promises involved repealing President Barack Obama-era rules and regulations. Here’s how the president is working with Congress and the executive branch to undo his predecessor’s legacy in seven key policy areas. Many of these are a work in progress.”

“Brexit engineer Nigel Farage hired to promote effort to break California in two
Former leader of UK’s pro-Brexit party joins campaign to split California, creating new GOP stronghold”
“Nigel Farage, the British politician known for his successful campaign to get the United Kingdom to leave the European Union, has teamed up with the backers of a campaign to split California into two separate states: a coastal state that would be dominated by liberal-dominated portion and an inland state that would be far more conservative.
This effort is one of several “CalExit” proposals that have been floated since the 2016 presidential election, in which Democrat Hillary Clinton won the national popular vote by nearly 3 million votes but still managed to lose by a lopsided margin in the Electoral College.”

Ain’t gonna happen unless Californians are even stupider than we think. The inland state of California would have all the water and the coastal state would have what exactly?
If California divides it will be north and south.

Re: “We know from other (research) literature that children who live in homes where there are guns are more likely to have an accident with a gun…” (this is a deep analysis)
You see that kind of idiocy in Government studies every day.
Now my blood pressure is up!!
Scar is correct. Most firearm accidents and homicides are suicide or gang related. As well this ‘study’ conveniently included incidents with pellet guns and b-b guns. Other than suicides, accidents with legally owned and legally secured firearms are very infrequent. This ‘study’ was obviously concocted to pander to urban lieberals with preconceived notions about firearms with no basis in reality. Just another example of how totally fvcked southern Ontario has become.
