  1. There was a comment in the prior thread on a tweet from dear leader on the forest fire / climate change threat. In case facts still matter, or at least as much as research still matters.
    From the Royal Society Publishing:

    The availability of satellite data now allows a more consistent
    evaluation of temporal patterns in area burned.
    Thus, from an analysis based on MODIS burned area maps
    between 1996 and 2012, Giglio et al. [35] present some
    rather notable outcomes. In contrast to what is widely perceived,
    the detected global area burned has actually
    decreased slightly over this period (by 1% yr21). A more
    recent global analysis by van Lierop et al. [36], based primarily
    on nationally reported fire data supplemented by burned
    area estimates from satellite observations, shows an overall
    decline in global area burned of 2% yr21 for the period
    2003–2012.

  2. Here in Alberta red Rachael cant seem to get off queer issues. She has been hammering away at Jason Kenney over comments his candidates have made.

    The latest is some conservative MLA who is a preacher and 5 years ago said something about homosexual love and paedophilia. Rachel went off as predicted demanding his immediate resignation. Kenney has so far resisted.

    I may be misreading this but the outrage over queer issues doesn’t seem to be resonating with voters this time.
    Albertans are focused on other issues and don’t seem to be taking the bait.

    Maybe I’m wrong but 2 weeks in and we’ve had 3 or 4 queer episodes and it seems business as usual. No outrage.
    I dunno?

    1. Global-ist chuckie Adler, donned his Gay-Mafia hit man outfit and eviscerated Jason on his show tonight. Drew heavily on fellow Gay-Mafioso from Ched. The Global-ists seem to be coming down hard on the Rebel.

      Is this a case of the state sanctioned media taking out the free media? Seems a lot like a communist state.

      1. MS
        I listened to Adler. He went for a knockout with Kenney but never landed a blow. Kenney was unfazed by Adler’s smear attempt. It was a cheap crass attack by Adler.
        I thought Adler embarrassed himself.

        1. I read that too quickly and for a split second I saw “ass crack attack by Adler”.
          ….which…is probably not far from the truth.

        2. For a guy with no hand in election in a province he does not reside in, Old Chuck sure seems to have a lot to say about it. And good on Kenney for standing firm unlike every other weenie conservative so-called leader out there.

    2. Scare politics is a gambit that the CCF/NDP will always employ since any package of initiatives that might actually help to get the economy moving again is slender or non-existent.
      Their campaigns always take on a pathetic theme of fear and loathing for their opponents.

      1. Red Rachel has no positive accomplishments to stand on. Unemployment bad. Stagnant economy. She’s chosen to slow play anything related to oil and sands production and delivery, etc. Calgary business vacancies, high min wage killing jobs and small business. Not all her direct fault, but she’s done NOTHING to improve anything either.
        So, it’s negative campaigning, the very thing the left always cries about when they are the alleged victim, but they sure love shovelling in the other direction.
        Has she accused Kenney of being a TRUMP clone yet? Or having Harper as his backstage coach? She will stoop to the lowest levels, it’s the ENDP DNA.
        Had enough of commie politics yet Alberta?

        1. Only Red Rachel would think an association to Harper, or Trump is a bad thing.
          She’s out of touch, and her love affair with MSM is going to further her demise in Alberta.

    3. Here in rural Ontario the only impression I get from the media is that the Alberta election is all about homosexual sex.

      1. Well the majority of Ontario voters decided at the last election that they have had enough of homo economics and kicked the former witch Premier to the curb. Between her and McGuinty they came close to bankrupting the Province with their liberal free everything for everyone social programs. I doubt if Kenney has much to be worried about because of a few remarks made by a couple of candidates.

    4. They are flogging a dead horse. Once you have succeeded in stifling alternative views (and the left is very good at that), you cannot pretend that something is still a hot issue. Someone may still harbor anti-gay sentiment, but it is a private matter and no longer a public threat to the gay agenda. I think the NDP must be desperate.

    5. I wonder why Red Rachel and the Bolsheviks are campaigning for the Conservatives. The people who are tempted to vote for Kenney are likely heartened by people not supporting the queer agenda. Didn’t anyone learn from Trump’s victory – don’t apologize for made up outrage.

    6. The Communists are working Overtime in EVERY area of communications. I’ve now 2 texts from some aparatchik’s asking If I support Rachel and her “fight for Education (Socialist Indoctrination), Diversification (bringing in 10’s of thousands of Somalis & Nigerians that we simply do not need), Health…(uhuh), etc etc.

      I gave him the virtual Finger.
      … & told him I dont Vote for Anti Oil Global Communists.

    1. Wonder if McGrath went to the Lavrentiy Beria school of managing media affairs.

      Or perhaps like Red Rachel she once wore a Che Guevara watch.

      1. Is it the university area? Lots of government workers live there, and retired ones? That demographic will always sway the vote heavy one way, always leaning to the most convenient left party to keep those awful, evil, knuckle dragging thumpers from gubermint!

  3. Pick me, pick me – I have a conspiracy theory, too.

    The only conceivable reason the PM and his associated minions would go the route they have is that either (a) there is serious criminal liability at stake or (b) there is great gobs of money (either promised or received) at stake. Myself, I say it’s both (a) and (b). But let’s follow (b) shall we?

    Trudeau is BFF with the Agha Khan. The Aga Khan is a business magnate with Portuguese and British citizenship and friends in very high places internationally. He is also fabulously wealthy outside of the $38 million dollars provided to his ‘foundation’ by we generous Canadian taxpayers. How difficult would it be for such a man to ‘charity wash’ bribe or payoff moneys through such a foundation and then through banks in the nearby Bahamas for example? It would make for a cozy and profitable relationship in return for keeping those large taxpayer donations coming through regularly.

    That’s my theory and I’m sticking with it.

    1. Agha Khan Foundation and the Trudeau Foundation are involved in the Uranium One Scandal.They charge Clinton, who was then Secretary of State, got $145 million in kickbacks to the Clinton Foundation from Uranium One’s investors after the Canadian company was sold to the Russian state-owned atomic energy company, Rosatom. Trudeau and Agha Khan are involved.

      A Canadian mining company whose sale to a Russian firm was approved in 2010. The U.S. government was involved because the sale gave the Russians control of part of the U.S. uranium supply. The transaction has faced renewed scrutiny after The Hill reported last year that the FBI had evidence as early as 2009 that Russian operatives used bribes, kickbacks and other dirty tactics to expand Moscow’s atomic energy footprint in the U.S., related to a subsidiary of the same Russian firm.

      1. Uranium One Inc. UUU-T says it doesn’t know who previously owned the company’s stake in a uranium deposit that is now at the centre of a national scandal in Kazakhstan, raising concerns about the miner’s ownership of the lucrative property.

        Uranium One owns a 30-per-cent stake in the Kyzylkum joint venture, which was purchased for $75-million (U.S.) in 2005 from a privately held company, Jeffcott Group Ltd. But the Vancouver firm says the shareholders behind Jeffcott were never specifically identified, nor does it know how Jeffcott initially obtained rights to the project.

        The fact that Uranium One doesn’t know who used to own one of its key assets adds to the already murky situation in Kazakhstan. The uranium-rich country, ruled by President Nursultan Nazarbayev for 20 years, has been a magnet for foreign mining firms eager to extract vast reserves of the metal used to make nuclear fuel.

          1. Mukhtar Dzhakishev is a former head of the national company Kazatomprom (1998–2001, 2002–2009). In May 2009, Dzhakishev was detained by Kazakhstani special services on suspicion of committing criminal offenses while occupying his post as head of Kazatomprom. In 2010 and 2012, two trials were carried out against Dzhakishev, as a result of which he was sentenced to 14 years’ imprisonment in a maximum security penal facility, having been convicted of ‘embezzlement of entrusted property’ (Article 176 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan), ‘accepting bribes’ (Article 311 of the CC of the RK) and ‘fraud’ (Article 177 of the CC of the RK). Dzhakishev pleaded not guilty of the crimes he was charged with.

            Uranium One Provides Update on Betpak Dala and Kyzylkum Joint Ventures
            Toronto, Ontario – Uranium One Inc. (“Uranium One” or the “Company”) announced today that the Astana City Court has dismissed the appeal of the Company’s Betpak Dala and Kyzylkum joint ventures against the March 26, 2014 Kazakh court order invalidating the Akdala, South Inkai and Kharasan subsoil use contracts.
            Uranium One also announced that its parent company, Rosatom, and Kazatomprom, the Company’s Kazakh joint venture partner, have signed an agreement providing for the issuance of new subsoil use rights on the same terms for the Akdala, South Inkai and Kharasan uranium fields by October 28, 2014.

            The UN Committee called on Kazakhstan to revoke the judgement against Dzhakishev, to release him from prison and, if necessary, to carry out a new trial. Earlier, on 26 March, 2014, the UN Committee urged the Kazakhstani authorities “to take all necessary measures to protect Mr. Dzhakishev’s health by providing him with the necessary medical assistance…”.

    2. That’s all part of a larger conspiracy. The SNC Lavalin, Uranium One, Clinton-Haiti, and myriad other scandals are simply the way corrupt politicians, judges, police chiefs, and businessmen are paid off for betraying their own kind. They are a symptom of a far larger issue.

      The Trudeaus, Paul Martins, Clintons, Obamas, etc. are simply lackeys. They are reimbursed for their various acts of treason by such scandals, or by the proceeds of speeches attended by no one of importance, or by books marketed for free and written by someone else.

      They all serve Rome. The Vatican is recovering all the ground they lost to the reformation over 500 years ago. They have done so by removing the rights of the people, centralizing power to the state, and ensuring that the people are ignorant and as close as possible to one paycheck or crisis from full dependency.

      They manage this through their various orders – the most notable and successful by far are the Jesuits, although the Knights of Malta are also quite prominent. The Freemasons are their stooges, most of which ignorantly think they actually oppose Catholicism, if at all. The various international world bodies that we see as corrupt (the UN, Bilderbergers, the myriad of central banks, Trilateral Commission, State Department, etc.) are all Catholic-controlled organizations.

  4. A new study establishes that environmental damage caused by corn production results in 4,300 premature deaths annually in the United States, representing a monetized cost of $39 billion.

    http://jacksnewswatch.a2hosted.com/flailing-green-insanity/

    No doubt we would save even more lives if all agriculture production was terminated forthwith if not sooner.

    Back to living in caves and eating grass folks.

    1. The lead researcher is Jason Hill, associate professor at the University of Minnesota College of Food, Agricultural and Natural Resource Sciences.
      What do you expect from someone at that particular college. Of course, all natural growth is good, and all manmade growth is bad, be it cattle or corn.
      So in addition to all those junk majors with the name of “Studies” attached, such as black studies, feminist studies, gender studies, whatever, we are starting to get departments, or even “colleges” as in this case, who specialize in junk so-called science, what Richard Feynman called Cargo Cult Science. You may as well kiss a university goodbye when the junk majors are in the majority.

  5. The Tuesday Night Massacre highlights Justin Trudeau’s problem with women
    by Diana Davison

    https://www.thepostmillennial.com/the-tuesday-night-massacre-highlights-justin-trudeaus-problem-with-women%EF%BB%BF/
    ————————————————————————————————————————————————————–
    L- Is it just me, but has anyone else noticed Justin prefers women who fawn over him, rather than adults with minds of their own, professional women, who don’t need Liberal sinecure to survive ?

    1. “has anyone else noticed Justin prefers women who fawn over him…?”

      Here, let me correct that for you:

      “has anyone else noticed Justin prefers people who fawn over him…?”

    2. Why would anyone be surprised at Justin’s response to strong women? His mother, in her battier moments, and as a matter of record, displayed her privates in public (Studio 54) and was rather generously and indiscriminately concupiscent. This may be an influence in his demonstrated outré behaviors and prolonged adolescent. He will likely never recover.

      1. “concupiscent?” It was the fashion of the day; I remember those times. Love, honor, & obey had to be trashed.
        The white sheep became the odd creature out in a stampede of black sheep.
        Why it’s rumored that St.Peter last opened the Pearly Gates back in 1963.

  6. PPC Platform for all Canadians

    Get out of the UN Global Initiative

    Get out of the Paris Accord and do nothing else

    Build pipelines to BC coast and Eastern Canada using the Not Withstanding Clause

    Scrap the Carbon Tax

    No Tax on first $15,000 earned

    15% Income Tax on next $85,000 earned

    25% Income Tax on income over $100,000

    Abolish the Capital Gains Tax

    Paid for by shrinking Big Government

    Defund the CBC

    No more Corporate Welfare

    Keep your rights to own firearms as is

    Reduce immigration and allow in economic working refugees

    Allow foreign Cell Phone Companies

      1. I don’t agree. The ‘progressive’ tax increase is pure bullshit.
        Every time I hear some asshole preach that ‘rich’ people should pay ‘more’ I want to puke.
        If the $15,000 earned is taxed at 10% they pay $1500.
        If the $100,000 earned is taxed at 10% they pay $10,000.
        That’s 6.7 TIMES more for the same services FFS!
        Get rid of the loopholes, the Capital gains and all the BS boutique credits and the CRA!
        If you want someone else to pay your way, you’re a POS.

        1. And I’ll add this – a truly progressive tax would stop at X total amount so that once you hit the threshold of say $30,000 just for shits and giggles all income after that would be tax free.
          But good luck with that as apparently even “Max” doesn’t believe in fair taxation.

        2. Here ,Here!!

          “Progressive Tax” has the word “progressive” in it, which, when applied to anything government attaches itself to is always a regressive policy and fundamentally is not in the sacred leftist/globalist mantra of equality.

          Hegalien Dialectic at its core.

          Pffffth!

    1. Already have my vote…I simply cannot in good consience vote for Andrew Scheer..who without even occupying the PMO, has bent the knee to Globalist forces: (Climate Change SCAM – Supply Mgnt – & will kiss Quebec (_i_) on a daily basis)

      Fcuk him and his Red Tories.

      Go Max Go..!!

  7. •Coming to a Cable Company near you:
    Turner Classic Movie Channel has been bundled into a new pack of channels that I don’t subscribe to.
    Beware of your packages – now has new meaning. Ha!
    The team is investigating – on phone with them 22 minutes.
    Can’t live without TCM. Oh the horror!

    Reminds one of the Dire Straits song…” we’ve got to move …”
    ( how shallow and frivolous when the world is gone to the dogs)

    pip pip

    1. …. ya ….It’s the sneaky way that they do it that gets to you – they just c.u.t. you off, here one day, g.o.n.e. the next, no warning!

      1. Well in Canada you are not considered mature enough to decide what you can watch. CRTC and the Ottawa Communists will make those choices for you. Knowledge and Freedom and Liberty are too dangerous for Canadians.

    2. Nowadays, I generally watch movies on cable TV, particularly those on TCM. Now that I have my inheritance, I’ve started adding to my film collection and, eventually, I might even say farewell to cable.

      I recently placed orders for Captain Blood (with Errol Flynn), The Sea Hawk (also with Flynn), H. M. S. Defiant (which features three future knights: Alec Guiness, Dirk Bogarde, and Anthony Quayle), and Master and Commander (starring Russell Crowe).

      I’ve drawn up a list of the movies I want to get, which has now more than 50 titles. I’ll have lots to keep me entertained.

      1. EXACTLY..!
        Cut the Chord
        Ensure you have good DL speeds (50mbs)
        Buy a Nvidia Shield
        Install Kodi – Install Add-ons
        Buy NHL pkg ($199)
        Buy a Good VPN (IP Vanish for eg.)
        Subscribe to U-Tube Premium
        …and watch what YOU want WHEN you want to.

        3 yrs now and dont miss paying $130/mo for nothing but BS & Garbage channels. Monthly cost is $ 50.00 for 75bps via Telus.

    3. My library offers access to the Kanopy streaming service. 4 free films each month. They offer many classic films. https://www.kanopy.com
      I also have Netflixs, but I am thinking of cancelling that. I think there are better streaming services. My preference is foreign films and their selection of these and documentaries is poor.

      1. huh.

        I wonder how many of them soak up their time watching oprah, ‘docta’ phil, kardashians, dance competitions, song competitions, nekkid people stuck on a mosquito infested island during the monsoon. what else? oh ya, goings on in the pawn shop, collisions on the 401, live feeds from some cop cruiser, vanna white as she bounces and smiles, shop til you drop channel, dart ‘bored’ competitions, will ferrel movies, et friggin CETERA.
        mebbe theyre behind this proliferation of video vomit. 900 channels an nuttin ta gaze at . . . . . except the nooze live feed of anudder terrorist bombing.
        sign of the times!!! an I dont even have an isp in my name, ’cause one of da tenants went and EXCEEDED the quota and put me back 200 bucks. nuffa dat. pryck.

  9. Great Leader Feminist Trudeau is burning jet fuel all over Quebec today. I’m sure this taxpayer funded trip has nothing to do with the election. And teacher unions in Ontario are pushing students onto the streets today to protest Hitler Ford.

  10. I’m not even against free trade and I realize some globalization is inevitable and beneficial but why can’t we talk about the trade offs.
    Manatees face new challenge in Florida from harassing, non-native armored catfish.
    I just want to remind everyone that NO ONE has done more damage to our native habitats than globalists, multinationals, and their fellow travelers, in the meanwhile they are constantly castigating us over CO2.

    1. Sorry but socialists have done more damage to the environment. Reference the former Soviet Union.

  11. The CBC reports on the ongoing soap opera of the consultant who has a home in Florida, demanding that an Indian reservation pay him the million dollars he is owed under a consulting contract. According to Big Chief Justin’s government it is common practice for consultants to charge ten percent of any money they get from the government for reserves. Its a good thing Groper got rid of those silly financial disclosure rules of Hitler Harper.

  12. Quite possibly the stupidest article to come from CBC in a long while.

    https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/carbon-tax-explainer-1.5081006

    “The carbon tax and its rebates have become one of the most hotly debated issues in Canada, yet they’re often misunderstood. The disconnect is entirely understandable. It’s a tax. It will increase costs for families and businesses. But a rebate will refund those costs for many families. So what’s the point?”

    “Economists offer an analogy to explain that point. Consider a bar that raises the price of a specific beer by $5. When you walk in, the bar tender hands you $5 bill. You can buy the more expensive beer and come out no worse. Or you can pocket the five bucks and buy something else.”

    Where’s my five bucks? I’m already paying higher prices for gas and propane. How about this… when you walk into a bar and order a $5 beer the bar tender charges you $10 and tells you “don’t worry, you’ll get 90% of your $5 back later – I promise”.

    1. Wait until they do the article on how the carbon tax is impacting CO2 levels — what garbage. Harper was right. This is a tax on everything. Their rebates will not cover increased food prices, local taxes, etc. And for what? How is the world — or even the environment — improved with this tax? CBC should be challenging the wisdom of the tax, not acting as a cheerleader.

    2. I like how the Tax Pushers use BC as their poster boy. BC instituted their fart tax in 2008. Gee, what happened next? Just a giant Great Recession Everywhere. So this conveniently inflates the pro-economic Full Retard lie that increasing taxation is good economic sense. They also take other numbers without analyzing any other factors. Of course its all from lefty pinkos who believe you have to Do Something even though pollution controls and engineering advancements have had tremendous impacts over the last 45 years (when catalytic converters came in) and frankly this Carbon Tax will do ZERO or less compared to plain old efficiencies.

  13. I’ll vote for a flat tax. And a $200 poll tax.
    A $35,000 tax free base would have the same overall effect as a progressive tax. Allow 50% of income deficiency below $35k to be carried forward to age 55. This should be an incentive to earn (and report) income.

    1. I believe the ”tax free” aspect is the wrong approach. Taxation is about chipping into the collective (such a dangerous term) pool to facilitate and maintain the basic functions of a community. As soon as someone is below a contribution line that line becomes a moveable object and it only ever moves one way. Others will say because some don’t make “enough” and that they need to spend all their income just to get by. But who judges their spending? Some people have houses they can’t afford, one more car than they need, expensive outings and vacations and clothes and they’re spending more than they bring in. Do they get to make the same claim even though they live an extravagant and maybe enviable lifestyle? And others who make far less are able to save for whatever reason. Why?

  14. Conspiracy theories eh?
    Heres mine.
    Government talking point is they can fight climate change and grow the economy at the same time.
    Problem.
    Their legislative agenda has killed two pipelines and the company planning to expand one is about to walk away.
    Solution, buy the pipeline and takeover the project.
    Problem, opposition in la belle province to any pipeline.
    Solution, sole source contract to a Quebec company and change the narrative to jobs.
    Problem, the preferred company is about to be excluded from federal contracts.
    Solution, create a law that makes it legal to allow the prosecution to entertain a plea deal so the criminal prosecution is quashed for a generous kickba …. er fine.
    Problem, the AG gets cold feet over the process because they have to publicly declare why this get out of criminal prosecution is being awarded and it cannot have anything to do with economics or politics.
    Solution, PMO does a full court press even going so far as telling the AG his chief of staff has a plethora of op-ed writers on call to frame the narrative. That, and they have an ex justice of the SCOC ready and willing to be consulted to provide a path forward.
    Problem, AG doesn’t buy it and digs their heals in refusing to budge.
    Solution, PM does cabinet shuffle to replace AG.
    Problem, someone leaks story to press.
    Solution, PM declares publicly that the fact the former AG is in another portfolio (still in cabinet) speaks for itself that the allegations are baseless.
    Problem, former AG resigns from cabinet.
    Now at this point in this spiel I will dispense with the conspiracy.
    Its obvious the plan was to get SNC a way to get this ginormous contract and a PM willing to sacrifice a excessive amount of political capital to do it.
    That requires a level of motivation that comes from desperation.
    So you have to ask, what could cause someone of Justin’s background to be that desperate?
    What “thing” that if threatened, would cause this level of desperation?
    The most likely is something that would destroy his reputation.
    Thats the unknown.

    1. if I had the resources, I would get dna samples from maggie, the TURD, fidel’s brother, etc.

  15. It’s time for Alberta to pull out of the Canada pension plan

    https://www.google.ca/amp/s/business.financialpost.com/opinion/an-alberta-exit-from-canadas-pension-plan-would-cost-the-rest-of-the-country-big-time/amp

    Highlights:

    Albertans net contributions to CPP over last 10 years (2008-2017) were 27.9 billion. i.e. we paid in 27.9 billion more than paid out to retired Albertans.

    Ontario’s net contribution was $7.4 billion.

    If Alberta pulled out the basic CPP rate of 9.9% would go up to 10.6% for the rest of Canada. Alberta’s rate for a CPP like program would go down to 5.85%.

    Time for Alberta to have it’s own pension plan. Just like Quebec.

  16. The Toronto Star has gone full commie this morning. The Chinese ambassador to Canada has written a story in the paper on how wonderful Chinese socialism is.

  17. It was something to watch those womyn turn their backs on Turdoo yesterday. Fake Feminism for the big fail.

    I have been observing that women in general are turning against pretty boy. My wife is fairly apolitical and not interested in current events but does watch the “news” at 6 most nights. She has developed a pretty strong antipathy for Turdoo lately.

    Even more amusingly she has become convinced that he is an ankle biting Ben Dover. She points out that his “friends” Reagan and Brison are also flute players and that Turdoo is too obsessed with his appearance and likes dressing up way to much.

    I’m not convinced but at the same time am not dissuading her… lol

  18. NSA today finally released the complete source code for GHIDRA version 9.0.2 which is now available on its Github repository.

    GHIDRA is agency’s home-grown classified software reverse engineering tool that agency experts have been using internally for over a decade to hunt down security bugs in software and applications.

    GHIDRA is a Java-based reverse engineering framework that features a graphical user interface (GUI) and has been designed to run on a variety of platforms including Windows, macOS, and Linux.

    Reverse engineering a program or software involves disassembling, i.e. converting binary instructions into assembly code when its source code is unavailable, helping software engineers, especially malware analysts, understand the functionality of the code and actual design and implementation information.

  19. “In reading The History of Nations, we find that, like individuals, they have their whims and their peculiarities, their seasons of excitement and recklessness, when they care not what they do. We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first.”

    Charles MacKay

    “The truth is that we were so spiritually and morally bankrupt that we could not even see some of those lines: we stepped over them blindly. Other times we saw the lines alright, but we wanted to cross them…

    It wasn’t God who was dead. We were.”

    Ray A., Practice These Principles

    “Religion used to be the opium of the people. To those suffering humiliation, pain, illness, and serfdom, religion promised the reward of an after life. But now, we are witnessing a transformation: a true opium of the people is the belief in nothingness after death, the huge solace, the huge comfort of thinking that for our betrayals, our greed, our cowardice, our murders, we are not going to be judged..”

    Czeslaw Milosz, Discreet Charm of Nihilism

    “These violent delights have violent ends
    And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
    Which, as they kiss, consume.”

  20. Canadian Extremists Want to Sue all the Oil Companies for Causing Climate Change
    Posted Apr 4, 2019 by Martin Armstrong

    In Canada, the left is urging lawsuits against oil companies to force them to pay for all the damage to the climate. Honestly, the oil companies should announce that they will layoff all Canadians and shut down all operations in Canada.

    Perhaps then these extremists will get what it means to go without oil: no more heating your home, no more driving to work, and no more food production for there will be no way to get the food to market.

    If you wanted to flee Canada, you would have to do so only with what you could carry in a backpack.

  21. Wisdom in one breath

    From El Borak at Men of the West

    During the twentieth century, Britain sank from being the world’s foremost power to a marginal colony of Brussels where you can go to jail over a Facebook post.

    From Naresh Jotwani at The Saker

    To raiders and marauders, there is no fundamental difference between a company and a country; they are just two types of prey.

    From Roger Simon at PJ Media

    You can blather on all you want about “white privilege,” but does anyone possibly think Smollett’s blackness had nothing to do with this result?

    From Aesop at Raconteur Report, about gun control

    Confiscation would end about noon Tuesday, and then the real bloodbath would begin – at city hall, the statehouse, and ultimately, on scaffolds in D.C.

    From Leo Damrosch at Lapham’s Quarterly

    Rhetorical man exists in society, takes coloration from it, and knows who he or she is not by introspection but by feedback from other people.

    From Paul Roberts at Institute for Political Economy

    Hollywood can make all the movies it wants with female superheroes, but superheroes are the last thing whining American feminists are.

    A 1947 observation by British major-general Trepor-Roper is worth considering when contemplating our own time. From Spectator USA:

    Far from being ruthlessly efficient, as Goebbels’s propaganda had claimed and which many had swallowed, the Nazi state was in fact the opposite, for it contained no mechanism for self-criticism. The structure of German politics and administration, instead of being ‘pyramidical’ and ‘monolithic’, was ‘a confusion of private empires, private armies, and private intelligence services’.

    Trevor-Roper depicted the leading Nazis as unscrupulous courtiers, greedily feasting off the spoils of conquest, jostling for favor, ever ready to belittle a rival and even, in the end, to abandon their leader.

    John Kass at the Chicago Tribune describes a drug bust in what are becoming no-go areas of the city:

    Then, someone reached into the squad car and took seized drugs. The officer standing a few feet away ran to chase the drug thief, and the mob began pressing and threatening the other officer with the suspect. A shot was fired a block away.

    A police radio recording of the incident shared with me lays it out.

    “Ten people surrounded me indicating they had firearms, then one person away from me … holding his waist … indicating he’d use the firearm against me.”

    That’s difficult to put your mind around, that people on the street have lost their fear of the cops. And what comes next? Who can say? But others will push the envelope, and others will push back, and it ends badly.

    Chicago is becoming Detroit faster than Detroit became Detroit.

    The Boeing 737-MAX disaster threatens to make the company an also-ran in the world’s most competitive civil airliner market. We’re talking single-aisle medium range, accounting for three quarters of all airliners built. Airbus, China and Russia now have an opportunity to bite off a much larger chunk. Here’s a video of the Russian MC-21 , a serious contender. It’s thirteen minutes long, but more entertaining than most promotional videos. Russians will be Russians. Take a look.

    1. Airbus had a number of crashes involving their first fly by wire aircraft. They recovered from that.

      More recently Airbus had a problem with pitot tube icing. At least one plane crashed (I think it was an Air France plan off Brazil). There were numerous other incidents with pitot tube icing. I don’t remember how many were before or after the Air France crash). Most people wouldn’t know what type of Airbus aircraft it was.

  22. Two Islamic extremists have been arrested by police in Paris after allegedly plotting to massacre a kindergarten full of children.

    The two men, both 20 years old, were arrested on March 25th in Seine-et-Marne with the Paris prosecutor charging them over plotting to kill children and police officers, broadcaster RTL reports.

    One of the men involved is said to have been known to the General Directorate of Homeland Security (DGSI), France’s internal intelligence agency.

  23. on the question of ‘youth in asia’, when my # comes up I plan on having a fully loaded Glock concealed on my person.
    I expect legislation be passed to create this situation long before we old timers are slobbering veggies.

    I got a perfect score out of a class of 50 for my firearms qualification. only 3rd time I held a pistol.
    yep. me and the instructor, only 2 that did it. 20 rounds in the spread of my fingers from 60 feet.
    I hit what I aim at.
    when the clip is empty, I will then use the semi to split open their goddamn faces having taken a grinder to it to
    make a sharp edge somewhere.
    Im gonna be like a GI with n korean troops about to overwhelm their position, kill as many as you can.
    MAKE THEM PAY.

  24. Doctors against guns,from Toronaa naturally.
    Should we apply the same logic to these Doctors?
    As deaths by medical screwup and drug proscription surely outnumber the gun victims…
    I noticed amongst all the free air time the media Party gave these attention hounds,no one suggesting maybe enforcement of the laws,might solve the doctors problems.
    Of course the Toronto news would not be as amusing,if the parasites running that city actually applied the law to those who hold and use illegally imported semiautomatic pistols…but the gangbangers are safe,cause it is so racist to expect them to obey the same laws as white people with jobs.

    1. Deaths from preventable medical mistakes kill approx 100,000 a year in USA.

      Actually this article says it’s 250,000.

      https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2018/02/22/medical-errors-third-leading-cause-of-death-in-america.html

      Once a year there is a newspaper article on medical mistakes but the medical profession largely gets a free pass on this. Contrast this death toll with the scrutiny Boeing is getting. And don’t mistake my comment for support of Boeing.

  25. Conspiracy Alert!
    Old news but it shows how utterly corrupt and shameless the elections in this country have become.
    And how the HATE HARPER was financed by the Wacko Wynne Ontario provincial govt to the tune of $70 million.

    When the Adscam deal was going on, I emailed Elections Canada and asked why the Liberal Party of Canada has not been banned from the next election?
    Answer came back the no one had complained about the ‘alleged’ crime of the Liberal Party.
    This after they had already confessed to wrong doing.

    SNC is just latest example of English Canada being down in the Quebec shit hole life style of corrupt, 1950s politics.

    Another beauty was Paul Martin and AECL and Export Development Corporation $1.5 billion China Candu deal among many others. Blank checks were being signed and delivered to unknown people all over the world.
    No doubt lots of that money came back into bank accounts here in Canada.

    In the South Korean Candu deal,
    “AECL officials later conceded $350,000 –hand delivered paper bags — were given to its South Korean agent donation business promotion fund. They denied the money bribes. ” —Energy Probe

    The last 40 years have been a total waste of the lives and money of Western Canadians.

    To the people who say the West will never separate, I say “If the West is going to be governed by complete and utter morons from Quebec, we might as well be electing our own Western morons.

    VOTE FOR THE WEST
