  3. Department of Homeland *Security*?
    “So why does the Department of Homeland Security need to do this?

    The explanation that they are giving the public is extremely week. The following comes from Forbes…

    DHS says the ‘NPPD/OUS [National Protection and Programs Directorate/Office of the Under Secretary] has a critical need to incorporate these functions into their programs in order to better reach Federal, state, local, tribal and private partners.’ Who knows what that means, but the document also states the NPPD’s mission is ‘to protect and enhance the resilience of the nation’s physical and cyberinfrastructure.

    But we are not supposed to ask questions about government programs such as this.

    In fact, just a few days ago a Department of Homeland Security representative stated that those that are questioning this program are ‘“tinfoil hat wearing, black helicopter conspiracy theorists’…

    If you find yourself skeptical of this proposal of mass state monitoring of the press, consider yourself a bonafide member of the ‘“tinfoil hat wearing, black helicopter conspiracy theorists,’ DHS representative Tyler Houlton said Friday. It’s all very routine, he argued, casting the project as an innocent means of ‘monitoring current events.’ Just shut up and let us do this, crackpots.’ “

    The network backed by billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch is coming down hard on President Donald Trump’s trade policies, yet another indication of the conservative mega-donors’ willingness to break with the the Trump administration.

    Three groups that are under the network’s umbrella — Americans for Prosperity, the Libre Initiative, and Freedom Partners Chamber of Commerce — announced Monday they are launching a multi-year, multi-million dollar campaign to promote the benefits of free trade and opposing tariffs. The announcement comes less than a week after Trump imposed tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from key allies Mexico, Europe and Canada.

  5. I watched the first Mission Impossible movie and regretted doing so. After that, I never paid attention to the rest of them.

    1. There were too many, 6 in all, only saw the first movie too. The TV series from ’66-72 with Peter Graves was terrific— & that theme music…real jazz a la late 60s. Love It! Also the impossibility of it was just what a kid wants, there were new inventions every episode!

      Also loved The Man from U.N.C.L.E. another spy fiction, from 64-68 with Robert Vaughn & David McCallum.

      Saw them in reruns during those long hot summers!

      Peace out. Smiles.

      1. Best jazz program on tv – Peter Gunn. Hank Mancini.
        I’ve got the sound track on vinyl.

        1. Thank you for mentioning Henry Mancini…he represents that era with his wonderful music. I really like the theme music of the movie, The Pink Panther that Mancini orchestrated. I recently saw the movie again, and I rarely watch anything more than once….but you have to just ‘die ‘ for Peter Sellers.

          As for Peter Gunn I missed seeing that whole series, and regret this loss. I ‘ll listen to the (YouTube) album, that you mentioned, when I get a chance, to console myself!

          1. Mancini was invited to Toronto back in the late 50’s mighta been early 60’s to do a concert. He was going to use local musicians playing his material.
            He was used to NY cats, LA and even Vegas. The best jazz musicians in the world.
            The players were assembled to run through the charts. Mancini was blown away by the quality of the players in Canada. He raved about them. Every chance he had to complement the Toronto jazz scene he laid it on.
            To this day there are world class jazz musicians in Toronto.

          2. The theme for the MI TV series was by Lalo Schifrin. Among his other musical scores were Bullitt and Dirty Harry.

      2. The original Mission: Impossible TV series was clever and it didn’t insult the intelligence of the viewer. The movie was what’s now called a re-boot and was total nonsense, particularly the real reason behind the revision.

        By the way, Peter Graves was not the first actor to play the group’s chief. Steven Hill, perhaps best known now for his role in Law and Order, was, but only for the first season.

        1. Ah huh, I am hereby defeated! ( by the internet, perhaps? )

          Must’ve missed that first season of Mission Impossible with Steven Hill. I liked him, of course, in Law & Order.

          (Sock it to me score: B A = 1 Nancy = oh! )

          1. CBC didn’t broadcast MI until the second season when Graves took over. I happened to see the first run when it was shown on the local TV station where I grew up. It may have been a CBC affiliate but it broadcast a lot of shows that were in syndication which, I think, MI was at first.

    2. Having tried to watch a few of the Tom Cruise MI movies, one comes away with the notion about how left-wing and anti-American they are. I was bored during a layover in downtown Montreal, and tried watching the third MI movie in a movie theatre. Midway through the movie, one character ranted about how terrible it is to “defend democracy” – at which point I walked out of the movie. The original MI series on TV (during the 1960’s?) was fresh, and pro-American. Always boycott left-wing movies. Always boycott left-wing institutions. Starbucks comes to mind.

    1. That’s one publication that Climate Barbie won’t have time for any more.

  6. I have read the recent conservative blogs, and few are commenting on yesterday’s civil suit against Ford. The corrupt media cartel (e.g., CBC News, the Globe and Mail) are in ecstasy over this, so it looks like an NDP majority. The civil suit comes a strategic three days before voting, so it seems like this is a corrupt fix. All I can say is that, writing from New Brunswick, that Ontario is a sewer of left-wing political corruption, from the media on down. One could hope that the Ontario voters realize that the civil suit, from the timing of it, is a scam. But I have given up hope.

    1. The timing on this is very suspect. I can’t imagine too many people being persuaded to dump Doug over unfounded allegations of a personal nature, but it certainly is a nasty trick. I wonder who is behind it.

  7. New respect for Tom Cruise.

    Not so fast. He gets millions just to skydive with special equipment, a full camera crew, and safety jumpers around him, while guys like this make real HALO or HAHO jumps into the middle of nowhere, loaded with gear, sometimes even with dogs usually at night, where people want to kill them, and for their trouble get an extra $225US/month.

    1. This is important for Canada. We are the 3rd largest aluminum producer but have ZERO bauxite reserves

  9. 5 jumps from a Twin-otter and 3 jumps from a C-17 every day; that don’t come cheap.
    Cruise has mastered how to jump; now if he could just learn some acting skills.

    “NAFTA negotiators have blown the 2018 deadline: GOP senator” (FP)

    1. I think the take on this whole trade dispute is questionable.Recenntly, more people have noticed our emperor has no clothes . So what can you do ? Have a war of course! In this case a trade war with the demigod to the south with a leader a significant number of people will support you against . The drama teacher needs some drama. I believe the biggest roadblock to an agreement is the Liberals and their concerns over the next election results .

  11. I have always watched his movies. I like action flicks, some are better than others. I think it is a good thing when an actor can take on some of the stunts himself.

    1. Steve McQueen preferred to do his own driving. However, in The Great Escape, the studio used a stunt double for the motorcycle fence-jumping scene because of insurance concerns. He was, though, still in it as he played one of the Germans chasing his character.

      He, of course, did his own driving in Bullitt and I believe he did so in the movie Le Mans.

      1. Bullitt’s iconic car chase scene is legendary. I enjoy it every time! What driving!

        1. A lot of people compare the car chase scene in The French Connection with the one in Bullitt, saying the two are equal. I beg to differ. The only car chase that comes close to the one in the latter movie is in The Seven-Ups with Roy Scheider.

          1. The three movies Bullitt 1968, the French Connection 1971 and The Seven- Ups 1973 are all produced by NYC producer Philip D’Antoni. (RIP April 15, 2018) The same technical advisors are used, for all 3 films. The sound effects, the spectacular muscle cars and of course the cityscapes are all stars in these plots. These car chase scenes are all riveting and can’t really be picked out for excellence, one versus another, because all are masterpieces.

            Bullitt is my favourite because of Steve McQueen and how he won the day, in the very very last frame of the car chase scene. It is hard to reproduce perfection!

            No spoiler alert from yours truly!

        2. I love that movie, the setting, the star and the cars. Living there later ruined the driving scenes for me somewhat because the locations weren’t linear with reality. Chunks here from one road intermingled with another miles away and the like. There were even some ‘you can’t get here from there’ moments. There was a shortcut I used to take in my Corvette from Pacifica to Candlestick Park that had only a few seconds of play. They could have filmed a good five minutes of circuitous, frightening driving there, but didn’t. I frightened myself a few times returning from games at night.

  12. I praise Xenu instead. Just before the stunt Xenu occupies the body of Cruise and does the act, just as Mohammed occupies the body of any Muslim about to kill a non believer. Allahu Xenu snackbar!

  13. Latest poll shows the libs tied with Ford.
    Good news probably as it splits the vote.

    1. It’s been a strange week in the country-side of Southern Ontario. A few weeks ago, almost no Liberal signs. This week, they are on every corner. Somebody must have been paid.

    1. The whole “Miss America” thing was nearly dead anyway. Want to see scantily clad beautiful women…. Victoria’s Secret Models. Want to see talent shows …. ‘the Voice’, America’s Got Talent, et al. Want to get turned on …. porn is a click away.

      Really, it’s a relic of a more socially conservative time. This change in format will not save it. (cue the Monty Python parrot)
      As usual, women as a group, are the ones who will actually suffer for it’s demise. Now they’ll all be forced to become computer programmers and die a lonely death surrounded by their cat children.

      1. Miss Universe went I, Napoleon a few years ago, courtesy of that Canadian xim/xir/xit. Xe/Xer/Xit was booted out when xe/xir/xit was found out and then threatened to sue, with ambulance chaser Gloria Allred’s assistance.

  14. Sure, Tom. Feed your adrenaline addiction and deny an industry stuntman some paying work all at the same time.

    Cruise is a disgusting c*cksucker. That is not a personal opinion, it is simply based on fact. Mission Impossible? I am shocked no one has mentioned his even longer running leading-man role as a proud recruiter for a vile, cruel and destructive religious cult.

    F*ck Tom Cruise. He is top-o-the-list for self-important, arrogant and freedom-destroying Hollywood scum.

    1. The only movie that Cruise made that I actually liked was Top Gun and it was largely due to the flying scenes. Aside from that, I’ve largely skipped what he’s done.

      1. B A,
        I am beside myself and I just couldn’t handle the truth, if you were to tell me you didn’t see ” A Few Good Men” with Cruise and Jack Nicholson!

        1. I admit that I’ve seen that one, too, though I prefer to consider it as a partial inspiration for the TV series JAG.

          But most of his movies haven’t been worth watching, though I might make an exception for Risky Business. I hated Minority Report and I thought that the version of War of the Worlds that he was in to be dreadful. Days of Thunder? Yuck! I quickly switched off Far and Away.

          The Last Samurai wasn’t bad, but Shogun it wasn’t.

          1. The cinematography and the sentimentality is to be appreciated in “Far and Away” as well as it’s historical context. I agree with you on the rest.

    Allan S, Strad, UnMe don’t read this, keep taking the blue pill.

    Great timeline by Sara.

    5 eyes hmmm, Trudeau visits WH and begins bromance with O early March 2016 just as the “spying” kicks into high gear. Would love to see a MP stand in Parliament and ask the Gov if Canada assisted in the Trump “spying” and “wiretapping” as part of it’s 5 eyes reciprocity

    The Guardian reported that British Intelligence sources shared its signals intelligence on people connected to Trump campaign with the United States. However, The Guardian also reports that Germany, Poland, and Estonia also shared communications related to members of the Trump campaign with the United States. Great Britain, which is part of what is called the “Five-Eyes” alliance includes the United States, Australia, Canada and New Zealand and “””the countries often shared signals intelligence, raw communications between targets they were investigating.”””

    “”” emphasis mine! Ha!

    .

      1. You’ve posted this nonsense before. It’s still nonsense. Maybe try again next week to see if it’s still nonsense?

        1. What about it is false? The part where the NSA had at one point hacked Russian intelligence agents phones? Please be specific.

  16. Liberals Grit their teeth as their vote is bled three ways, even according to friendly Nanos.

    “The latest Nanos federal ballot tracking has the Conservatives at 34.0 per cent support, followed by the Liberals at 34.1 per cent, the NDP at 21.2 percent, the BQ at 4.4 per cent and the Greens at 5.4 per cent.”

    Asked whether they would consider voting for each of the federal parties, 46.3 per cent of Canadians say they would consider voting Conservative while 44.6 per cent would consider voting Liberal. Four in ten (40.5%) would consider voting NDP while 27.1 per cent and 29.2 per cent of Canadians would consider voting for the BQ and Green parties respectively.”

    The Nanos Index which is a composite of a series of measures including ballot and leadership impressions has the Liberals with 53.7 points, the Conservatives 53.0 points, the NDP 45.1 points, the Greens 34.9 points and the BQ 26.6 points (QC only).”

    Time to get out on the summer BBQ grip and grin tour Mr Sheer.

    1. This Nanos link has to be a fake parody, with the Liberals in second place. This can’t be real.

      1. Not fake, but only as real as any poll could be a year and a half from election day.

        1. These days all polls are suspect:
          a) how many people do not respond to polls
          b) how many people lie to pollsters
          Remember the pollster records your phone number and your response and enters it into their database. the data can be sold to ???

  17. Mission Impossible started out terrible and gets better and better with each sequel.
    Extremely rare these days.

    1. “Trump wants separate Canada and Mexico negotiations.”

      “U.S. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, speaking at an Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development conference in Paris on May 30, explained his distaste for multi-party free-trade accords, saying “multilateral tends to negotiate everything down to the lowest common denominator and since we are the main target, we end up getting eaten away.”

      No trade deal can be made permanent. So 5 years is too short? How about 7 years?

      1. Nothing is permanent about NAFTA. it can be changed. There are opt out requirements.

        That’s completely different than a sunset clause. Americans generally are pretty bad with things that have an export date. That’s bad for business.

        1. The US is notorious for negotiating deals which the Senate does not ratify. Why does anyone negotiate with the US?

  18. The latest “We’ve got Trump this time” du jour. Mr Trump, have you stopped beating your wife yet?

    Trump beat his poor little wife, whom they hate, because she didn’t recover fast enough from kidney surgery?

    We don’t know, she’s not saying (lifted from Paul Martin’s Soldiers in our Streets election defeat).

    Perhaps she didn’t accompany Trump on a trip because she’s still feeling a little under the weather (suspect condition was more serious than disclosed), or whatever the frig other reason.

    Bloggers and media personalities will stay stupid things, but check this out from someone at least related to journalism, a senior writer at Rolling Stone (I have added my own amplification for contextual clarification):

    “I wish that I didn’t suspect that the prolonged, poorly explained public absence of Melania Trump could be about concealing abuse.”

    If only your bigoted totalitarianism wasn’t precluding any other possibility. If only you weren’t such a useful idiot.

    “I wish that it was a ludicrous prospect. I wish that the @POTUS wasn’t a man with a history of abusing women, including those to whom he is married.”

    Don’t we all, but again blind hatred is easier than thinking, and obfuscation is easier than facing facts.

    Do you wish Bill Clinton wasn’t a serial sexual abuser? Has he stopped abusing women yet?

    A disgusting new low, even for this bunch of totalitarian theocrats of statism. Does anybody go after Sylvie Trudeau? No, why would they? So why do they go after Melania? Actually I get it, asked and answered.

  22. Nursing home inquiry after Wetlaufer murder spree hears how Ontario nurses’ union intervened, including having two FIRINGS changed to resignation – once getting her a $2000 payment and a reference letter – after she’d been fired for errors and medical incompetence:

    http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/london/elizabeth-wettlaufer-day-one-public-inquiry-1.4692559

    Documents posted online reveal just how much, and how often, the system designed to protect patients failed those people. Those failures include:
    •After she was fired for stealing medication and overdosing in 1995, the Ontario Nurses Association intervened, and her firing was noted as a voluntary resignation.
    •From 2007 to 2014, Wettlaufer worked at Caressant Care in Woodstock, Ont., where she killed seven people. During that time, she was reprimanded nine times for numerous medical errors and incompetence until she was fired in 2014.
    •Her firing from Caressant Care was noted as a voluntary resignation after the Ontario Nurses Association again intervened. Wettlaufer got $2,000 as part of her union settlement and a letter of recommendation.
    •Wettlaufer began working at Meadow Park Long Term Care in London. Meadow Park administrators called police, because they suspected the nurse had stolen narcotics. No one called the Ontario College of Nurses, the regulatory body that oversees the province’s nurses. It’s not clear what happened to the police investigation.
    •The Ontario Coroner’s office was tipped off twice about problems with deaths at long-term care facilities where Wettlaufer worked. However, autopsies were not performed in those unexpected and suspicious deaths to determine their cause.

  23. Climate barbie Canada’s weather gurl had better not hear that climate change is dead.

    Who’d have a set big enough in the department to tell her?

    Reminds me of another weather gurl who asked,”where does that Siberia high come from anyway? “

    1. I am not sure what it is with leftists and climate change. They clearly have all been brainwashed. Last night on Paikin, Kathleen Wynne was interviewed. She stated that thinking of the PC’s dropping the climate change agenda “makes her blood run cold” — what a ridiculous comment! Now even if you believe in AGW, Ontario’s (indeed Canada’s) efforts to do anything about it will have virtually no impact. None. We are too small an emitter. So why is it so concerning, that we might not actually do anything for four years? Maybe she is concerned that if the PC’s abandon the climate change agenda, everyone will soon discover the whole thing is a scam. That must be what is concerning to her.

      1. Dear Linda,
        Yesterday we talked about this topic, and I mentioned to you in a direct reply that this ‘GANG green’ was invented by a person, namely Maurice Strong, a Canadian. Skip 50 years, and we’re all still here. There is a lot of propaganda to make you part with your hard earned money. Always was, always will be.

        When David Suzuki ‘s young daughter was made aware of all the hype, a few years ago, she became despondent. She appealed to her father and begged for more explanation, scientific or otherwise, and solutions to this devastation, called A.G.W. , she was so overwhelmed and just beside herself and practically crying, with all the worry. Do you know what Suzuki did? He told her to forget it, not to worry, to relax and then took her on a trip around the world to allay her fears. Imagine using all that jet fuel?

        So to you I say, what Fox News’ s Sean Hannity says mostly every evening at the end of his show: ” Let not your heart be troubled”. “You can’t do anything about the length of your life, but you can do something about it’s width and depth.”..latter quote is by none other H.L. Mencken

        Chill… Peace Out,
        Nancy

  24. Have anyone wondered how Stephen Harper can still live rent free in liberal minds?
    How still to this day the mere mention of his name gets their blood pressure tp rise?
    Was it any of his policy achievements?
    Was it his out reach to Israel?
    I don’t think its any of those.
    His cardinal sin was nothing to do with a percieved scandal, or any “secret adgenda”(tm).
    What gets a liberals shorts in a knot is the fact that he was PM.
    Worse in their mind that not only did he win a mandate, but that he won three times.
    When an NDP manages to suceed the liberals seem to attribute those loses as legit. When a conservative wins their automatic response is disbelief, that it can’t possibly be.
    When a conservative wins, it delegitimizes every aspect of their arguments.
    Example
    To them conservatives are climate deniers and by extension climate deniers being a minority (at least if you base that bs on consensus) ergo conservatives are the minority and by sheer numbers can’t possibly garner enough votes to win elections.
    Or so their thought process goes.
    Because in their view of reality any opposing idea is just bad and they of course being thee most generous, most polite, most loved people in the world a conservative could not possibly win an election …. unless they cheated.
    And that is why they hate PMSH because he was PM for three mandates in a row.

    “Scramble to Save Modules Wrecked by Rogue Robots”

    “Report: Tesla ‘Wasting Jaw-Dropping Amount’ of Materials, Cash to Make Model 3”

    “Tesla is reportedly “wasting a jaw-dropping amount” of materials and cash to produce its Model 3 cars.

    After reviewing internal documents from Tesla, Business Insider described the amount of resourced dedicated to Model 3 production as “jaw-dropping,” wasteful, and claimed that “the company expects that as much as 40% of the raw materials used to produce batteries and driving units manufactured at Tesla’s Gigafactory in Nevada need to be scrapped or reworked by employees before they are sent to Tesla’s factory in Fremont, California, and assembled into Model 3s.”

    “That is to say, for every 2,500 battery packs and driving units that leave the Gigafactory, an additional 1,000 pieces of ‘nonconforming material’ are created,” they explained. “Half of that will be reworked and put into other car parts. The other half becomes scrap.”

    Business Insider gave a specific example of how Tesla produced bad parts. “In February, a misprogrammed robot that handles battery modules repeatedly punctured through the plastic housing (called a clamshell) and into some battery cells, the employee said, adding that instead of scrapping all the modules, some were fixed with adhesive and put back on the manufacturing line. According to internal documents Business Insider reviewed, this foible affected more than 1,000 pieces.”

    In a statement to Business Insider, Tesla claimed the inefficiency was “something we planned for,” and was a “normal part of a production ramp.””
