    1. These trucks burn diesel fuel and pollute. John Horgan wants to eliminate “carbon” (nat gas, diesel, gasoline) from his redoubt in the Lower Mainland, where loggers have no say. https://nationalpost.com/news/local-news/logging-truck-protest-convoy-driven-by-plea-for-help-in-b-c-small-towns/wcm/456abe77-896d-4e36-899d-09d1dd8427d4?video_autoplay=true#comments-area

      Blocking Tans Mountain blocks fuels supplied by Alberta, the sole source of hydrocarbons in BC, ans a goodly chunk of Washington State, other than that from Alaska via the Seattle area refiners.

      Go ahead John and Weaver, shut it all down. Suits me fine.

      1. Should PM DickSpank win, I truly hope that galvanizes Western – Albertans Separation…if not, I may consider a move to Hungary…..or Texas.

    1. So much for any thoughts about carbon-neutral re-makes of The French Connection, Bullitt, and The Seven-Ups. The car chases in those movies wouldn’t last more than 5 minutes.

      1. If they were charged, in terms of acceleration, torque, and handling, the e-cars would beat the Mustangs and Chargers used in Bullitt but would they complete the scenes without self-detonating?

        1. It would be rather disconcerting to see the Mustang be the vehicle that explodes and burns.

          Speaking of which, my DVD of Bullitt has a lot of special features and documentaries. In one of them, how that car chase was made was described. McQueen and Bill Hickman (the stunt driver of the Charger, and who himself acted in a number of movies, including The French Connection) spent a lot of time practicing the close approaches. It was interesting to learn just how they did that.

        2. Please, can you STFU? So tired of the absolute and total morons who have refused to buy or even ride in an electric car their entire lives, but always come on and say moronic things about “how great they are”.

          They been available since 1832; guess what, Steve McQueen COULD have used on in any of his movies. They COULD have used them exclusively in French Connection. BUT THEY DIDN’T. So again, STFU.

          1. I have to laugh at the notion that our Natural Ruling party have decreed that Canada should be 100% ICE powered vehicle FREE by 2050.

            I note there is never any talk at where or how said massive extra Electrial generation will come from…right?

            WInd-Solar…LMFAO
            Coal..?? NEVER
            Nat Gas…not likely
            Hydro…what river isn’t left in this country that is already damned..??

            There is only 1 Power Source Available that could…NUCLEAR, and I garantee you, that’ll never happen.

            So it’s back to dog sled – horse & buggy and the wholesale annihilation of 90+% of the population…cause you won’t have any of the above available to heat your home either…in -30C weather.

            Agenda 2030 – They WANT us ALL Dead….the only real conclusion

        3. And yet you’ve omitted an important factor about all that “power and performance” of your beloved EV … it drains the battery about 6x faster than “normal” driving (range as calculated by the EPA). So the average police officer best be “pursuing” criminals at a steady 55mph … or their batteries are going to go TILT … really, really, FAST.

          Yes, a 4-barrel Holly carb (Steve McQueen days) drains fuel faster at high speeds … but not by the same factor as a Tesla battery drain … with a much smaller range to begin with

          And … that Tesla requires 8-12 hours for a FULL charge … so the very expensive squad car sits idle for half (if not more) of its serviceable life. Bad purchase. Bad business decision … but the eco leftist governments don’t concern themselves with good business decisions

          1. …but the eco leftist governments don’t concern themselves with good business decisions

            And why would they..??
            It’s ALLWAYS other peoples money…yours n mine Kenji.

    1. If so, would it keep its hands to itself or would it grope Barbie as soon as it gets close to her?

          1. Business in front, party in back!

            You outdid yourself with that comment. I’ll probably be chuckling about it after I go to bed.

      1. If so, would it keep its hands to itself or would it grope Barbie as soon as it gets close to her?

        Considering we’re talking “Climate Barbie” here, I bet he’d leave her alone.

        “Is that a canoe in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?”

        “It’s a canoe.”

        { – Or in this case, it’s likely a sock stuffed with newspaper; you know, something Aladdin is apparently familiar with…}

      1. Speaking of painting yourself black, this year’s scariest Halloween costume:

        Novelty socks and aint your face and hands black. When people ask, “WTF?!” “It’s not ‘blackface’ as such, it’s a PM Trudeau costume, and really the scary part, re-elected PM Trudeau.”

  1. Man found dead after shooting in Etobicoke parking lot
    Miriam Katawazi , CTV News Toronto Last Updated Tuesday, September 24, 2019 6:56PM EDT

    A man was found dead after a shooting in Etobicoke Tuesday afternoon.
    Police said a passerby found the victim in the back parking lot of an apartment building near The West Mall and Rathburn Road.

    Police said they had received no calls about the sounds of gun shots in the area, and do not know when the shooting happened.

    “At this time, we don’t have any information on how long or when this actually happened … a citizen had just come across the person lying there,” Inspector Darren Alldrit said. …

    L- 1.Calling the police about gangsta shootings in the GTA is so 20th Century.
    2. Someone or something has clearly brought the entire Canadian administration of justice into disrepute by the 21st Century.
    3. No one is reporting a description of that culprit either, because… see point #2 above

    1. In a nearby Alberta town, someone fired a 12 gauge shotgun in an apartment and nobody called the police. I’m sure the residents were worried that the RCMP were more likely to arrest them than the perpetrator. Such is the trust of the Mounties. I knew someone who lived in Mexico and they said that under no circumstances talk to the Federales unless it was absolutely necessary. Nothing good would ever come from it. Sounds like our Federales.

  2. Suggestion: how about a Halloween photo contest. Take a group photo of yourself and as many friends as you can muster, all wearing blackface, and a Justin-turban. Halloween is coming soon.

  3. How to win a leadership race: Sell out to a special interest group then stonewall grassroots members at a party policy convention to advance the interests of the special interest group.

    “Fresh off the support that dairy farmers gave Andrew Scheer in his Conservative leadership battle with Maxime Bernier, the Conservative party has claimed to be the true protectors of supply management.”

    1. And this isn’t about the cost of a carton of puss infected milk on a store shelf.
      And it’s not about the $5 billion tax payers are potentially on the hook for, money the dairy Mafia has pocketed.
      It’s about Agenda 21. It’s about your rights being trampled.
      It’s about your right to live on the land off your fruits & labours.
      And the Dairy Mafia opposes that right.

      But let’s hand the country over to Scheer cuz he’s only pretending to go along with the globalists and Liberals on that UN Paris Accord.

  4. Thanks Scheer for not standing up to free speech in the house.

          It’s the same strategy they used against the event I sponsored in New Jersey.

          The goal is to increase the cost for everyone involved so they back down

          1. Oppose narrative on immigration & that makes you an alt-right Nazi who deserves to get his head bashed in.
            And the CBC lavishes praises on ANTIFA.
            But Scheer boycotts one of the few voices conservatives have @ the Rebel because the CBC labels the Rebel alt-right.
            Why is Scheer still giving interviews to the ANTIFA enablers?

          3. Why don’t you start a webpage to post your endless links of CRAP?

            Most of us scroll by your CRAP!

            KATE, you said you weren’t going to permit this much longer, but it’s your blog.

  5. Trudeau’s Unifor media reports that Blackie’s staff is arranging a meeting between Saint Greta and Groper. Everyone wants to see a picture of two retarded teenagers spewing nonsense.

  6. All of Trudeau’s Unifor media is excited at the latest Nanos poll. The Liberals have taken over top spot. Twenty more years of Great Leader, and then his son Dear Leader can take over. And Trudeau’s CBC explains to us this morning that only Justin can defeat climate change. We also need a huge increase in the carbon tax. They also had someone on who explained that Scheer would not have fought the Nazis in World War 2, because of Scheer’s attitude that we are too small a country to make a difference. The CBC warns everyone not to be a Nazi bastard like Scheer, and join Team Trudeau.

    1. Race is on-who promises to give out the most. Same. Same.
      Sheer`s numbers were going up (Before Blackface made the news) with the 905 moms worried about meeting ends.
      The other day Dear Leader, not to be outdone, upped Scheer on handouts & tax breaks.

  7. At the National Post website they ask the experts on what has to happen under Blackie’s climate change goals. Basically the entire oilsands industry in Alberta has to be shut down, everyone must drive electric cars, and every house must have solar panels. Although the expert agrees, that even those things will not meet Groper’s goals. And then of course there is the future of the carbon tax. How much will it have to be increased.

    1. Ten years of BC’s carbon tax has reduced yearly CO2 emissions in BC from 64.76 million tonnes to 64.36 million tonnes..

      Let’s see, a $50 per tonne tax yields 0.4 million tonne reduction. $500 per tonne yields 4 million tonne reduction? And $5000 per tonne will yield 40 tonne reduction.

      Ah ha, it may not be linear. But you get the idea. Under Trudeau, Singh, and May. Carbon taxes will go way up.

      1. And we know the real reason that CO2 emissions went down the tiny biy is that the NDP crash the economy wherever they govern.

          1. I was at a Scheer rally last week. He says he is going to scrap the carbon tax.

            Mind you, Johnny Cretin said – I heard him – “Read my lips – we will scrap the GST!”

      2. That is simply not s good example of a carbon tax btinging down emissions. Their emissions may have gone down (I guess), but people moving to BC who do not have cars is s factor and other people are heading across the border to fill up. I read an article some time ago pointing out the problems with BC as an example. Most other places did not significantly reduce CO2 either. You could tell researchersi wanted to find the carbon tax effective. All they eventually came up with was a suggestion that carbon taxes could help reduce CO2 when combined with other measures. (paraphrasing, but that was the ambiguous conclusion.)

    2. So if we all are going to be in EV’s…what’s the Carbon Tax for…??

      Something don’t add up…as if anything in the Globalist Climate Change SCAM ever did.

      1. If Canada is to be carbon net zero by 2050, like Trudeau wants, then he’ll have to do things like this:

        – impose a $5000 surcharge on the purchase of all new internal combustion vehicles.

        – impose a $5000/year federal pollution control fee on all internal combustion vehicles.

        The money received will be returned to Canadians who buy all electric vehicles.

        This is what will happen if Trudeau, Singh, or May get in.

  8. This needs more attention.

    @AndrewLawton

    I was just pulled out of the line at Justin Trudeau’s Lakehead rally by two Thunder Bay cops and ejected from the building. Moments earlier an organizer took my photo and showed them. I RSVPd to this public event and was given a wristband. My name was on the list!

    https://mobile.twitter.com/AndrewLawton/status/1177005011404017674

    1. aaaaaand what is it called when COPS meddle in the political process?
      it’s called ‘cops are tops’ !!!!!!

    2. I agree appalling. Remember the big fuss when a couple of Liberal plants invaded a Harper rally? All over the news. This time when Liberals are closing their rallies to Conservatives– not a peep. There are so many examples of this double standard. It is sickening.

  9. How to change weather temperature data from actual temperatures to computer models —–Environment Canada and the climate change division——- Check out Blacklocks report on Watt’s up!
    Goldstein “Feds Scrapped 100 years of data on climate” eg. One temperature in 1937 that was very warm was taken down 4 degrees celsius ——This complement of Catherine Mckenna !!! How the the fraud of Anthropogenic Climate change is passed off as real science!

    1. As a retired Professional Geologist, I look for refutation of the “garbage science” promulgated by the twits at “Environment Kanaduh”, while geological and other scientific data (by real scientists, not climate “scienticians”) exists to refute everything that they preach to the uneducated masses lapping up the fantasy that this planet is in dire straits due to humans. Why should we cut our economic throats in favor of the Chinese, or anyone else for that matter….as the science is NOT settled in any way shape of form, on Globble Warmening. Still seeing car ads, oil based materials advertised.

      The biggest risk to humans is ……. humans, once we became “tool users”. Been that way for eons. The Elites seem to have this theory that there too many non-Elites wasting resources (like food) cluttering up the place and they should be “culled”, in favor of their supposed better creds.

      Well, some folks beg to differ:

      https://wattsupwiththat.com/2019/09/25/a-clean-kill-of-the-carbon-dioxide-driven-climate-change-hypothesis/

    2. Why aren’t the scientists angry about being forced to hide real data? Isn’t this a variation on muzzling scientists? Or worse, forcing them to participate in a deception. Where’s the outrage? Maybe there is none because our public service are Liberal lackeys. Do you think?

      1. Follow the money.

        I realised why Climate Barbie did this – she said she’s going to use that website to work-out future increases to the carbon tax.

        I guess even the Liberals aren’t stupid enough to increase the carbon tax when their own website shows it was hotter 100 years ago…

      2. Dr. David Jones was a leading Lecturer at Oxford University in the early 2000’s! His Doctorate was in Physics! He wrote an article that some of his brightest post grad students were coming to him because they weren’t being accepted into Master and Doctoral programs! The only common trait he found was they didn’t believe in Anthropogenic Climate Change!

  10. I have followed Rod Dreher (now at TAC) for a number of years and have a love/hate regard for him. Yesterday, he posted this about the U.K.:
    https://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/labour-votes-to-dissolve-britain/
    What stood out to me was the following:
    “I don’t care how inept Boris Johnson may be, if you are a British patriot, you’d have to be crazy not to vote for him, or for whoever stands the best chance of keeping Labour out of power. This is an existential question. The future of the nation hangs on keeping Jeremy Corbyn out of No. 10.”

    Yet, back in 2016, Dreher could not bring himself to plug his nose and vote for Donald Trump. Too bad he couldn’t write:
    “I don’t care how inept Donald Trump may be, if you are an American patriot, you’d have to be crazy not to vote for him, or for whoever stands the best chance of keeping the Democrats out of power. This is an existential question. The future of the nation hangs on keeping Hillary Clinton out of the White House.”

  11. Last week on The Daily Show, Trevor Noah went after Trudeau on the blackface and, surprisingly, was pretty harsh.

    Having said this, has anyone else noticed that CTV Comedy Channel (formerly The Comedy Network) is choosing not to run clips of that episode in the trailer they air that promotes The Daily Show, despite the fact that it is Canadian content and that they have run trailers in the past from that show that did feature Trudeau but only in a flattering way?

    No doubt that if the blackface scandal was about Sheer that the CTV crew would be showing those clips in the trailer and doing so throughout the election campaign.

    On a somewhat related note, why has CTV chosen to produce a show called The Social that is a copy of The View but without a token conservative on the panel, someone like an Adrian’s Batra for example (an intelligent and insightful media woman who lives in Toronto where the show is taped), there to provide a decenting point of view on topics of a political nature, countering the unchallenged narratives from the four left wing progressive women who make up the show’s panel? And what does the combination of the two – the trudeau blackface trailer that doesn’t exist because they refuse to create it – say about CTV and their claims of neutrality? I’m sure if CTV would offer her a contract she would gladly accept.

    And of course, a CTV reporter last week caught acting as a shill for a Liberal cabinet minister.

    And just for good measure, it’s worth pointing out that Trudeau’s top adviser, Ben Chin, is a former newsman at CTV.

    1. Palo Alto is only following in the footsteps of other Bay Area cities.
      Berkeley and Menlo Park already ban natural gas in new construction, effective in the new year.
      San Jose and San Francisco are also considering doing it. Given their city/county councils, there is no reason to think they won’t.
      Unfortunately, there is only one way for us to get out of California, if my daughter ever gets pregnant. But also unfortunately, she and her husband live in Silver Springs, Montgomery County, Maryland. Montgomery County is a “sanctuary city” of recent fame because of its number of alien rapists. Otherwise our closes relatives and most friends live in California.
      Well, there is another way, which eventually I’ll take, chances are.
      Ironically, natural gas is the most efficient method of heating known to man. Directly from gas to flame on your stove or in your heater. Factoring in construction costs and shelf life of solar panels and windmills, it probably has the lowest “carbon (dioxide) footprint” too.

    2. I have just returned from a business trip to a Balkan country (yes, I flew there, thank you), where there were ads selling passports issued by the country for much less than it costs to buy a home in California—in front of the Parliament building no less.

      For that money you get to live in a country with both a much lower cost of living and a refreshingly rational attitude towards the wretched of the earth—as well as towards feral cats and dogs (the ones that cannot be exported are routinely poisoned).

      I may take them up on it in a few years.

  12. Trudeau’s CBC and CTV gave us heartwarming pictures of Justin canoeing to his press conference. Lots of good old rants about Hitler Ford. He also promised a war or fight against provincial premiers when crowned again. Because when you want to unite the country, you declare war against the premiers people elect. And he will be marching with his hero Greta tomorrow.

  13. Oh Nooo! According to Breitbart, a minister with the Hungarian government has trashed Blackie. She is nice looking woman too.

    1. Rick has merely illustrated how most women find work in the corporate and government sector that doesn’t involve making coffee or cleaning toilets. It’s not by being able to do the job better than a man or a computer (assuming the job needs doing at all). It’s by bending over for the disgusting toad in the corner office.

  14. The reality is starting to settle in that Trudope will win either a minority or God help us a majority government in October . Spring and early summer polling showed Scheer holding a 5 to 8 point lead but that has all come to a screeching halt . Some have opined that a Scheer victory would solve absolutely nothing and it is time to let Canada implode once and for all . At the end of the day these people might be right .

  15. Only the corrupt media, unions and crazed leftist complain about Premier Ford.

    Ford Nation lives very well in the hearts of the 905 region and outside the boundaries of the city of Toronto.

    Can Maxime Bernier’s People’s Party take advantage of ‘Ford Nation’?

  16. In Dominic Cummings’ Britain:

    The people are sovereign.

    Doing the bidding of their enemies has consequences.

    The correct answer to give someone whom you don’t know from a pile of pig manure and who is trying to blame you for the consequences of his own treachery is “I don’t know who you are.”

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7509151/Tory-mastermind-Dominic-Cummings-berated-Labour-MP-corners-toxic-Commons-row.html

    Mr. Cummings is an example to us all—and may go down in history as the man who saved Britain.

    1. Hardly. Cummings is a poisonous little power-hungry twerp who almost single-handedly stopped any rational discussion about how to make Brexit good, from making-it to public consciousness. Read what Richard North has to say about him.

  17. Its a good thing the kiddies are ranting in the streets about global warming tomorrow and not Saturday. They are calling for up to 20 cent. of snow out west this weekend. And when Blackie was finished canoeing and ranting about Doug Ford today, he stated that taxpayers will be paying for kids to go to camp. No word yet on when every child will get a pony.

  18. So if we all are going to be in EV’s…what’s the Carbon Tax for…??

    Something don’t add up…as if anything in the Globalist Climate Change SCAM ever did.

  19. With all the talk about the superior indian culture, Fox News website has the heartwarming story on how Incas searched all over their empire for child sacrifices.

  20. The Toronto Sun website explains the new Liberal Party ads that trash legal gun owners. And the ad shows the evil Conservative MPs including Hitler Scheer firing guns. This could lead to Soldiers In Marching In The Streets.

    1. Where do you think the Supremes come from who invent rights and title and “create” Indian land for a people who hadn’t invented a word meaning property. We’ve been on the slippery slope of increasing judicial inspired reverse apartheid since NDP Premier Harcourt intentionally lost the appeal of BC Chief Justice McEachern’s ruling that concluded that rights and title were extinguished long ago and that BC was free to negotiate but not legally required to. The real craziness was that Indians are federal responsibility under the constitution and the province only had to sit tight on all its constitutionally deemed resources and land and if the feds wanted to negotiate a treaty they could bring cash for the provincial land. The NDP couldn’t pony up fast enough while the feds were quietly laughing at them. A good read on this is in ‘Our Home or Native Land’ by former BC Chief Justice, Mel Smith.

      1. The B. C. provincial government is slowly giving the province back to the natives. One example is that the Queen Charlotte Islands no longer go by that name, at least officially.

        I grew up in NE B. C. When I moved away more than 40 years ago, the town I was in was largely white with a few natives. Now that I’m there on a regular basis while I settle my father’s estate, I’ve noticed that the downtown area now has several offices for certain native groups.
