  1. POLL SPOTTING
    Wow, the Lethbridge Herald is full Green New Deal mode, wot?! Two days in a row.
    Should other cities follow Montreal’s example by introducing a bylaw to ban single-use plastic items?
    https://lethbridgeherald.com/
    Thanks for helping yesterday’s poll.

  2. This video includes some of the best ‘zingers’ in politics, ever!
    What a hate-fest!
    It’s a compilation from the Presidential debates of 2016:

    P.S. in case you missed it, see Readers Tips -April 24th for a lively exchange on the topic of HRC. There were some great submissions by some of the many wits here at SDA, namely Watcher, Steakman, Boots and Joe.

    BTW: Trump gave an interview to Sean Hannity this evening uninterrupted by commercials. There’s much, much more stuff going to happen, very soon, that will be surprising, he said.

    Can’t wait!

    1. Grandma is about to get run over by the reindeer, a few grandpa’s too. I gotta go see that interview.
      Trump and his Family have been put through hell for over 2 years, illegally. He is very angry and will have no mercy.

    2. @ Nancy…

      I’m a “wit”..?
      The bride of 30yrs would likely tell ya .. yea, more like a nitwit…!!
      cheers,

  3. Oh my God! Groper is spending all day in Ottawa today! No word on whether his visit to Ottawa will extend to two days.

  4. Transmissions or transgenders either way I will call Momma’s Little FU what ever pronoun I choose. When the State controls what you can say, they are practicing mind control. Control the speech, control the thought process, control the sheep..
    Some jurisdictions are now firing and promising jail time for using the wrong pronoun for a transmission. It is long past time for God to heed Kates prayer. Oh Sweet Saint of San Andreas take these FU’s now.

  5. The CBC reports on the wild success of the documentary on the criminal Boushie family. The Boushie family and the director were given standing ovations at the documentary festival. Indians ransacking western Canadian farms is an ancient tradition and should be legalized.

    1. See Kerr vs Regina 2004 SCOC ruling on the Magna Carta right to Self Defense.
      The Magna Carta is the original Indian Treaty.

      1. In 2004 the SCOC ruled that you have the right to defend your own life, even with an illegally concealed illegal weapon.
        Nobody in the msm paid much attention to the ruling. It has never been used in a court reference yet it was a majority ruling.
        The Supreme Court dismissed all charges, and even went so far as to include The Magna Carta Rights of self defensive.
        This means that despite all the BS by the Police and the Government Canadians have the same inalienable Rights to Self Defense as American’s. Granted by the Magna Carta. The case was 2004 Kerr vs. Regina. It was a very significant ruling in Canadian history and completely ignored by the public.

    2. In other whiny indian news, the National Post reports on the first day in court of indians laying claim to Georgian Bay and Lake Huron. They arrived waving feathers accompanied by twenty lawyers. They are only asking for 90 billion dollars.

      1. The natives living on the Bruce Peninsula are a mixed bag. Some are descendants of Ojibways who killed off the Iroquois who had been living there (who had killed off whatever group that had lived there before). But also many are of other groups who were expelled from the USA after having fought for the crown during the war of 1812 holding off American invaders.
        Some further south were allied with the British during the American Revolution. Atrocities committed by British troops have been attributed to the Indians.
        Being allied to the British in both wars, the natives were forced off their traditional lands in the USA and resettled in Ontario. The crown made treaties, keeping them divided and dependent on handouts while ever changing the terms/treaties.
        The crown (hangers on) profited by colonizing the lands with starving Irish and displaced Scots and refugees from war torn Europe. The settlers worked and paid for the land and now their descendants and newcomers are being called on to pay for the mistakes of the past that they aren’t responsible for. Where is the justice in that???

  6. I so hate to do this, but just had to bring this up again here at the Supreme Court of SDA. Every small town has a park bench or two downtown or a small café where the cowboys and farmers gather to talk weather and argue politics. In the summer the Supreme Court often holds session on the Park Bench.
    When it’s -40 the Supreme Court is in Session in the nearest Café with the cheapest coffee, with lots of refills and no parking meters.
    It has come to me that SDA is like that Park Bench or Café. So I Declare the SDA Supreme Court in Session on this matter of Alberta’s Jurisdiction over its resources and the Legality of the Carbon Tax. I forwith present my facts. Again as no wags took my bait yesterday.
    For all the speculators on whether Alberta has the Constitutional Power to restrict its resources, Premier Lougheed already did that in 1980 and won. He also took the Federal Govt to the Supreme Court on Federal Tax on oil and gas and won that case as well. So the Carbon Tax could very well be illegal in Alberta’s case. https://www.cbc.ca/archives/entry/lougheed-retaliates-against-trudeau-for-nep

    1. What do Albertans want? Control over resources in a country run by politicians who pander to “progressive” voters in Ontario & Quebec? Or just to get out?

      Read the writing on the wall. Here in Ontario Ford got elected because of vote splitting between the left. The “progressives” grow stronger every year. They lap up the globalist propaganda i.e. global warming, forced migrations, the evils of western culture, the victimization of minorities, etc etc etc.

      If Alberta is going to start a constitutional fight over resources, then make it a good one and link it to separation.
      https://www.dailyoilbulletin.com/article/2019/1/21/two-paths-for-alberta-separation/

      The carbon tax is a tax directed against Alberta’s resource industry. Kenney turns ex-federalist & takes this to the court of public opinion. He gives Ottawa the ultimatum: Drop the carbon tax or Alberta holds a referendum on separation ON ITS OWN TERMS VS TERMS DICTATED BY THE ROC or SOC!!!

      1. Alberta is treated like a Subservient Colony by Ottawa. This has to end. It did not used to be like that, read up on what a Confederation is, it is an agreement for Sovereign states or in our case Provinces to work together for mutual benefit. There is no mutual benefit anymore. I read your link, I think some has some truth and some of it not so much.
        Here is one fact, Albertans have paid in 1T dollars to Ottawa since 1961. That coming from a population of less than 4M people. Albertans have a legitimate beef here.
        It matters not what the drooling slack jawed idiot Chretien did, or what the SCOC ruled, or what the ROC wants what is going on now is criminal. If this continues and if the ROC and Ottawa do not backwater and pretty damn quick, it is going to happen anyway.
        Alberta can go UDI whether the UN or anybody else thinks it is right or wrong. Alberta has a Head of State, Alberta has a Parliament, Alberta has a Supreme Court, Alberta has a Prime Minister elected by a substantial majority to fight for the Alberta people. And Alberta has a clearly defined border.
        UDI is legal and will probably be what happens. Nobody likes UDI domestically or Internationally, the alternative to UDI is always Civil War. It immediately ends SCOC involvement, ends all Indian Treaty’s it ends all Federal Treaty’s.
        Albertans have the Right of Eminent Domain meaning we possess the land. Every blade of grass and drop of water and barrel of oil in Alberta belongs to the people of Alberta and no one else.
        When you get right down to it Albertans have no equal voice in Canada politically. The whole structure is rigged for vote buying by Ottawa of the voting block that supports their policies, their ideologies.
        So Criminal levels of taxation, no equal vote, no Triple E Senate to balance regional differences, and now the ROC and Ottawa want to take away our bread and butter. Not going to happen, just not going to happen.
        We are a Freedom loving bunch here in Alberta and we believe in fair play. Ottawa has been dealing off the bottom of the deck for years and the Whores of the ROC have been benefitting by the illegal ill gotten gains. Ottawa and all of the ROC can go to hell. Anyway my 2 cents.

  7. Our government elites have become obsessed with the regulation of carbon and with carbon taxes.

    Below is an article that I think should be read carefully.

    The extra carbon taxes the Liberals aren’t talking much about
    https://nationalpost.com/opinion/the-extra-carbon-taxes-the-liberals-arent-talking-much-about

    Government is literally killing our economy with tax upon tax.

    This costs the consumer dearly and reduces the country’s GDP significantly. It hurts everyone unnecessarily.

    A politician could use this to win an election.

    How? By sweeping away all the regulation of carbon and all carbon taxes for a country that produces between 0.5% – 0.7% of the world’s total CO2 emissions.

  8. my preferred Fix…?
    “grassy knoll”
    End the deviant Trudeau Bilogical line….it is riddled with inherent Naziism, politically correct Social “justice”, Frankfurt school thinking and well beyond Perverted. DISEASED in fact.

    These people are de-facto Traitors, bowing to the false gods of Globalism….and in the end, they absolutely want you DEAD….all the while skimming every rotten cent they can from YOU.

    Me..?? I’d prefer a more pro-active stance….but I fear there are no more “real” warriors left in Canada.

    1. The ultimate revenge? End Canada, start with the Republic of Alberta and a well worded UDI.

      1. I am 1000% in Favour of that.
        US style Constitution
        1st 2nd and few other amendments.
        Absolute unrevocable RIGHT to own / protect property/persons.
        Ab, Sask, Mb, NWT & The Yukon. Give us 3 Tidewater Solutions….and to hell with Upper/Lower Canada and their EI colonies.

        We would totally kick some (_i_).

        Canada: Pls vote for Justin – that will be all that it takes for the above to happen.

      2. Been of that mindset Watcher, since his old man & his NEP got me laid off Dec 24th 1980 or ’81 (cant recall exact yr.). Near lost a home and a carreer that was derailed for near 6 years. Taxi driving was not my 1st choice….

        Trudeau Hatred of Alberta is GENETIC & Communist Based. My Hatred for that Family/Liberals is now Genetic as well…evolution an all eh.?

    1. Ontario tried shooting some activists claiming land a few years back. That didn’t go over well.
      These land claim cases have been dragging on forever and along the way the SOC has ruled that the crown lawyers need to find a better way of proceeding. So the directive predates JWR.
      And its not just about the natives. There are plenty of examples of where the crown abuses the legal process against non-natives also at the expense of the taxpayer.

  9. The Yellow Vest Demands, Macron is blinking like a peeping tom with pink eye. I agree with their demands of 1,7,8,15,22,28. Imagine if we had a Constitution that limited all personal taxation from all sources to a max. of a 20% total take of peoples property. That would be one way to achieve small efficient government. The Municipal Greasy Thugs, the Provincial Greasy Thugs and the Super greasy Feral Federal Thugs would all have to manage on a total take of 20%. https://www.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/yellow%20vests.png?itok=CXVO2i6w

    1. There are two problems;
      1 — paying tax to more than one entity
      2 — the farther away the entity is, the worse it becomes

      Basically, you need to limit it to a single tax collector. And that tax collector has to live within walking distance of you. Any one else who wants money has to ask for it from your local guy.

      Imagine if all the taxes you currently paid were rolled into one big payment, and it was your next door neighbour, and ONLY your next door neighbour who came by every week to collect it.

      GST, PST, gas tax, income tax, corporate tax, excise tax, property tax, capital gains tax, death tax, inheritance tax, tax tax, tax tax tax tax, …

      When there are 25 people collecting different taxes, and they are all allowed to come up with different schemes to obscure how much they are taking, and they are allowed to levy taxes on the other guy’s taxes, …

      1. Exactly Kevin, some Canadian with the money should take it to the International Court, well on 2nd thought. One of the Constitutional Proposals that I put to Dannielle Smith was that Alberta end the Feudal Title system of In Fee Simple, and make land titles for home ownership Allodial Titles. In that way they could not be taxed. The with holding of tax monies is the difference between Freedom and Slavery. I am talking about homes or personal property here. I would make the Province #1 the Local Government #2 with the Proviso that the property owner would not be paying tax on his personal property. And the Feral Feds could have the crumbs. I would limit the total take to 20-25% as I stated above. Meaning a total tax of 25% and that would mean no death duties or capital gains either.

  10. Remember how the American and Canadian media made fun of Trump predicting that the GDP would reach three per cent? Well it happened today as the new figures show over three percent growth. Meanwhile Canada’s GDP is stagnant. I guess ranting about Nazis is more important to Justin.

  11. I was just over at Drudge report. Apparently, Madonna and Springsteen are still alive, and someone cares about those has beens. Madonna can be summed up by the phrase “to boldly go where every man has been before”. And Springsteen, well, he could take over from Rachel Maddow and no one would notice any difference.

    Who cares about Trump derangement rock bands? There are like, 30,000 of them, and they all sound the same.

  12. City of Victoria wants to go over the top with their “climate emergency” and force the CRD, regional government, to make transit FREE!

    Of course this means higher gas taxes, and higher house taxes. Currently, normies pay less than $100 a month for a pass, and seniors and students pay about half that. BARGAINS!

    That’s the ultimate goal of these far left greentards, MOAR TAXES. Of course, it means life gets even more expensive for the lower income, working poor, and pensioners, as all costs to landlords are passed down to the renters. These people are reckless and stupid!

    https://www.timescolonist.com/news/local/public-transit-should-be-free-victoria-council-says-1.23803219

    1. Under the PPC, the tax rate for anyone under $100,000 will be 15%. Currently, those with income between $47,630 and $95,295 pay 20.5% while 26% tax is paid for earnings between $95,295 and $147,667.

      The PPC will also make your cell phone, internet, and cable bills cheaper as it opens up Canadian markets to competition and breaks the telecommunication monopoly that currently exists in this country.

      Overall, the price of many household necessities will go down as the PPC eliminates the inter-provincial tariffs , currently in place, that add to the price of goods transported between provinces.

    2. Victoria should clean up it’s sewage!

      Kenney should ban all BC fish from passing through Alberta. It’s sewage seafood.

      1. Joe
        I think Victoria has set up a sewage treatment system. Not sure if it’s up and running but they have taken measures to deal with it.

        Today the mare of Victoria is being escorted around Ft Mac to see the evil ‘tar sands’ for herself. A coupla months ago she said Ft Mac oil companies should be taken to court presumably for polluting the planet.

        Somebody in Calgary suggested the mare take a tour and maybe she’d see the light…ha. Whata waste of time. Her mind is made up. I heard her on the radio this morning. O&G=climate change. Full stop.

        1. I remember hearing that the storm sewers and the sanitary sewers weren’t separated, so if it rains hard, Vicoria poop still ends up in the ocean once the plant becomes operational.

          Oh and wasn’t it Harper who told Victoria to get along with building a sewage plant or they’d be heavily fined.

        2. Update. Sewage treatment plant is still under construction. They are still dumping sewage.

          Don’t eat the fish!

  13. https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/we-are-not-all-smiths-and-johns-grabher-licence-plate-saga-nearing-its-end/ar-BBWjXP5
    Of course it was used for 27 years previously before getting yanked by the Nova Scotia Asshole Government. A feminist studies hosebag from McGill said in court that the last name Grabher on a license plate will make women unsafe.
    I assume no man will ever grab her. Also her nickname at the local lesbian hangout – The Clam Dip Bar & Grill – is Fister.

  14. Saudi Arabia executes 37 – Canada is ‘very concerned’.

    So compromised is our Foreign Affais dept that they are afraid to even match the rhetoric of the UN. When the recent Saudi led attack on the Yemeni’s killed 11 civilians including children took place, Ottawa apparently never heard of it?

    Where is the ukerainien sausage? Shouldn’t her be excoriating the Saudis with moral outrage? Is she not ‘appalled’ at minimum?

    Or is she still on her knees begging forgiveness for her last outburst from men who only use women to clean their toilets and bear their children? Just askin’.

    1. If she can’t blame the Jews for something going wrong, Chrystia isn’t interested.

  15. It’s up to businesses to adapt to the needs of society at large — not to society to radically transform itself so as to fulfil the needs of businesses.

    Big business lobbies pushing for mass immigration are NOT working in the interest of Canadians.

    https://mobile.twitter.com/MaximeBernier/status/1121841050849619968

    No.

    Manpower shortages are one thing.

    We must balance with our capacity to integrate immigrants, cultural and social stability, pressure on housing and infrastructure in big cities, wages, gov support costs, etc.

    All this points to LOWER IMMIGRATION.

    Goldy Hyder, President and CEO of the Business Council of Canada, speaks at the Asia Business Leaders Advisory Council meeting on Wednesday, Feb. 27, 2019, in Hong Kong. THE CANADIAN PRESS/AP, Theodore Kaye, AP Images for the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada

    GOLDY HYDER TO SUCCEED JOHN MANLEY AS PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER OF THE BUSINESS COUNCIL OF CANADA

    Founded in 1976, the Business Council of Canada is the senior voice of Canada’s business leaders. The Council is composed of the CEOs and entrepreneurs of 150 leading private-sector enterprises, representing every major industry and all regions of the country.

    Mr. Hyder is currently President and CEO of Hill+Knowlton Strategies (Canada), a position he has held since 2014. Prior to joining Hill+Knowlton in 2001, he served as Director of Policy and Chief of Staff to The Right Honourable Joe Clark. In addition to his achievements in business and public policy, he has an extensive record of service on behalf of the charitable and non-profit sectors, including as past co-chair of the United Way of Ottawa Campaign Cabinet and as current Chair of the Ottawa Senators Foundation.

    1. Hyder said he’s personally part of a group called the Century Initiative, which would like to see Canada, a country of about 37 million, grow to 100 million people by 2100.

      The group was co-founded by Hyder and several others, including two members of the Trudeau government’s influential economic advisory council — Dominic Barton, global managing director of consulting firm McKinsey & Co., and Mark Wiseman, a senior managing director for investment management giant BlackRock Inc. Hyder was a business consultant before joining the business council and was once a top aide to federal Progressive Conservative leader Joe Clark.

      The Century Initiative wants Canada to responsibly expand its population as a way to help drive its economic potential.
      “Demographics are not going to be relying on just making babies, we’re going to need immigration,” Hyder said. “We have to be able to communicate that from an economic perspective, but cognizant of the social concerns that people have.”

      What about the environment???

      Going green is just a tax…

  17. Huh, I thought he was the ‘you’re fired’ guy? lol
    Sure pulled one over on the ‘right’. The 3D chess doesn’t go quite how they envision.
    Discredit the Russian collusion, drive rocket boy to Russia…Russia mediates…voila, the door to Russian collusion.

    Well played…

    @cspan
    President Trump: “I’m a student of history. I see what you get when you fire people and it’s not good. But there would have been nothing wrong with firing him. Legally I had absolute right to fire him, but I never told Don McGahn to fire Mueller.”

    Excerpt;
    Per Putin’s comments after the summit:
    We are going to discuss the situation with the US. Russia is always open on this – there are no conspiracies. More than that Kim Jong-un personally asked us to inform Washington of his position and the issues he wants to ask about.

  18. Turdeau government running a 3 billion surplus?

    https://www.ctvnews.ca/mobile/politics/trudeau-government-ran-3-1-billion-surplus-in-first-11-months-of-2018-19-1.4396509

    When I read this I was stunned. Then I realized with an election coming up Team Turdeau has been cooking the books a la Kathleen Wynne. Some SDA readers are more astute than me re the federal books, so maybe others can figure out where the money “went”.

    I suspect a whole bunch of spending payments have been deferred to the next fiscal year which I believe started April 1 2019. And perhaps some credits were moved forward to March 2019.

    All this so Turdeau can say he “balanced” the budget.

  19. Breaking President Trump just won 2020. He withdrew the USA from the UN Small Arms Treaty today. It was operating under Color of Law, because all treaties in the USA must be ratified by a Majority in the Senate. Obama had gone ahead on his own outside the Rule of Law and signed the treaty anyway. President Trump today annulled Obama’s signature and withdrew the USA. Leftwing insanity in 3-2-1 we have lift off Houston. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-announces-us-withdrawal-from-un-arms-trade-treaty

  20. Get ready for more sparky cars.

    Buried in the article below is this gem; “ electric vehicle manufacturers will be allowed to generate credits to sell to needy fuel producers – a secret gift to make up for the potential disappearance of electric car subsidies due to their political unpopularity.”

    Now who do you think will pay the fuel producers? And this cost will not be included in Turdeau’s carbon tax rebate.

    1. If sexual orientation means, what sort of people elicit one’s sexual interest, then paedophilia IS a sexual orientation.
      BUT
      // What’s the biggest misconception that most people have about pedophilia?
      I think, probably, the number one lesson that people need to be aware of is that pedophilia is itself different from child molestation. Most people take these two phrases as synonyms, but they’re not. Pedophilia is the actual sexual interest in children. These people are turned on more by children than they are by adults. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that they actually touch anyone. There are people that experience it, know that it poses potential harm to the kid, and they spend their lives suppressing it. // https://tinyurl.com/yxl6v4e5
