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."

The New Year is already a day old.
The parties are over, people are going back to work on Jan. 02, for some, the credit cards are maxed out, now the winter blues are setting in. Guy Lombardo has a song that may soothe your woes.

i see Ontario has put another nail in the economic coffin for the province. the minimum wage went up 21% to 14 dollars an hour. the foolish liberal socialists are braying about a living wage and more spending. they know nothing about economics. now that the minimum wage is 14 dollars an hour the bottom is 14 dollars/hour. all costs will rise to reflect this, jobs will be cut and businesses will close. Fing stupid socialists. if only they would be the very first to suffer from the idiotic po0licies. my god people are stupid.
AGW RIP.

“Great Lakes Ice Increasing Relatively Rapidly”
“Great Lakes total ice cover is approx. 20%.
Lake Michigan was at 19.2% Mon. PM, Lake Huron at 30.7%, Lake
Erie at 39.5%, Lake Ontario at 15.9% and Lake Superior at 7.7% (a lower figure because the lake is much deeper than the other Great Lakes (the deeper the lake, the longer it will take to freeze over in winter).
Lake St. Clair is 99% frozen over as the Coast Guard tries to keep a channel open for ships.
Arctic air holds firm the rest of this week…so those numbers will increase.”

Lombardo: 20 #1 hits. Hundreds of millions of records sold; the Boss of his generation and era.
This Harry Woods song has been covered by singers from Sinatra to Maria Muldaur but Lombardo was the first to record it in 1932.

Had my best friends over for New Years and they are both solid lefties. Though we don’t discuss politics as it is pointless since I am plainly a racist, bigot and islamophobe he defends and supports Wynne’s 21% minimum wage increase as it gives the employees a “living wage” even though a good friend told us both a month ago that he as a restaurant owner will really struggle with this increase and must raise his prices. The left truly are brain dead.

‘Consumer Reports rating Tesla’s Model X as the absolute least reliable vehicle made.’
Tesla needs to have a RED warning sticker-
DON’T DRIVE THIS VEHICLE IN WINTER, OR BELOW 40 DEGREES.
Wynne is buying the next election, passing out goodies all around. Any opposition that vows to take away any of those goodies will lose. Ontario is in for another round of Wynne…debt, sleaze, corruption, don’t mention the words, she’ll sue.
Musk doesn’t care. Whenever there is some bad news about Tesla he just deflects by promising something new. A couple of months ago it was his semi truck and last week it was his pickup truck. His fanbois in the media lap it up and proclaim what a genius he is and rarely re-visit his previous claims to see how they have turned out. Even bad news that Tesla can’t meet production targets for the Model 3 gets a positive spin.
More Bad News Expected for Tesla
Like Munster, Erickson says investors shouldn’t get too hung up on a single number.
“We think bullish investors in particular remain more focused on that the car is being produced with minimal defects and that consumer reviews and response are favorable,” Erickson says.
Tesla was supposed to deliver 10,000 Model S units per week. Rumor has it that production levels are 2,500 per quarter. When the media won’t even quote the same time units (weeks vs quarters) you know there is a major problem (and cover up).
10,000 vehicles per week is 40,000 vehicles per month
2,500 vehicles per quarter is just over 800 vehicles per month
If you multiply 800 x 5 you get 4,000.
If you multiply 4,000 by 10 you get 40,000.
Tesla is currently making only 1/50th of the production it promised. And the stock is $311/shr.
AGW RIP.

“The Great Green Election Machine
When the Liberals won their majority government in 2015, they did so by 14 seats. And they didn’t do it alone. A network of environmental groups claims to have defeated 24 Conservative incumbents. Here’s the story of their strategy—and where their money came from
BY VIVIAN KRAUSE”
“From his home office in a treehouse on Saltspring Island, B.C., Jason Mogus wields a big stick over the Alberta oil industry, and in far-off Bangalore, India, Ben Brandzel, a buddy of Mogus, is also influencing Canadian politics that ultimately thwart or support Canada’s hydrocarbon exports. But, both Mogus and Brandzel are virtually unknown.
“I can see the Golden Gate [Bridge] from one house and the Washington Monument from the other. And I spend a lot of time interloping in the affairs of foreign nations.”
– Ben Brandzel
The Neil Young concerts, some of the legal action by First Nations and the media-ready protests are familiar to Canadians. Behind them is the Tar Sands Campaign, a multimillion-dollar international initiative that aims to stop the export of Alberta’s oil. Since 2012, Mogus has been hired as the senior advisor to this campaign. Brandzel is an advisor to one of the hubs of anti-pipeline activism, a Vancouver-based non-profit called Leadnow.”

So then … what made the French Government “believe” that importing Third-worlders into their (previously) civilized nation would NOT turn France into a Third-world country? Did they actually “believe” the Third-worlders would miraculously “become” First-worlders?
This sort of poppycock is typical of leftist belief. It reminds me of the typical schoolteacher belief that if you put dumb-students into group projects with smart-students … then the dumb-students will “become” smart. Funny thing … there is no such expression that says “one good Apple fixes the whole bad bunch” … no … the TRUTH is … and always will be, that “one bad apple spoils the whole bunch”.
France has been systematically importing spoiled apples. And their whole bunch is getting rotted. Rotted to the core.
Any bets that Soros is behind it?

Not good at math. Is 16 days like 32 or like 8 in two-faced kitten days?
Or as someone else put it, if you mix equal parts dog shit and ice cream, it never turns out that the ice cream makes the dog shit palatable.
AGW Kills.
MSM loves “cold snap”: “Since the cold snap arrived”.
Is a “cold snap” weather or is it climate?

“Record-Setting Cold Shakes Up America’s Commodities Markets”
“Historic cold gripping U.S. could last weeks, say forecasters”
“A record-breaking cold that’s threatening to spur heating-fuel shortages from the East Coast to Texas has driven up natural gas demand to unprecedented levels and put crops across the U.S. wheat belt at risk.”
“Another blast of bitterly cold air will sweep across the U.S. by the middle of next week, Oravec said. The chill could linger through Jan. 16, …”

New York City to install 1,500 barriers to prevent vehicle ramming attacks
Starting later this month, the city will begin installing more than 1,500 new permanent bollards in Times Square and other public spaces.

Yes Soros is behind it. I am surprised that Viven left Avaaz out of her article. They were the main funding behind Leadnow.
http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/printgroupProfile.asp?grpid=7621
Avaaz is funded in large part by its members’ support. ABC News reports, however, that the organization also receives financial backing from George Soros, MoveOn.org, and the SEIU. In addition, Avaaz has received funding from Res Publica, which is bankrolled, in part, by the Open Society Institute.

“Scientists Against Climate Alarmism”
“These are some of the scientists who actively oppose climate alarmism (or opposed it through the last days of their lives):
Dr. Ivar Giaever, Nobel Laureate in physics:” (more)
“Only a few real scientists, including disgraced Dr. James Hansen and corrupt Dr. Mario Molina, support climate alarmism. The rest are serial perjurer Michael Mann and countless practitioners of “environmental studies” and “climate change science.”
Climate alarmism is a huge fraud that is riding a gravy train of enormous size. The climate change industry alone boasts an annual revenue of $1.5T (yes, $1.5 trillions). It’s likely an exaggeration but there are still hundreds of billions of dollars of taxpayers money that are spent on climate alarmism promotion – the largest PR operation in history.”

Liz, I wonder will those who lose their jobs and their business vote for her and the corrupt liberals. They may vote for the equally corrupt NDP.
