    1. Ian, what bothers me tremendously is that after all this time the terminally stupid among us still have control, I guess that means we have joined them or they now are the majority and will succeed in killing is all.

    2. shock value?
      they want shock value?
      let me know where theyre showing up next, I will do likewise with a broken extension cord and
      give them some shock value.

  1. Next week’s news now:
    NATO is 70 !! And looking it.

    Last days of UK election race, Trump checking his mail for impeachment news. Macron calling NATO “brain dead”, Merkel accusing Macron of breaking the crockery, Erdogan also ranting about vetoing Macron ; & the EU …..
    https://www.natomultimedia.tv/portal/index.html

    It looks like it’s Macron’s turn to stir the shit.
    He’s already got other things in mind:

    UKRAINE TALKS IN PARIS
    The leaders of France, Germany, Russia and Ukraine will meet in Paris on Dec. 9 to discuss steps towards a peaceful resolution to the 5 year old conflict in eastern Ukraine. “The summit will be held following major progress since the summer in negotiations for a settlement in the east Ukraine conflict” according to a statement by the Elysée Palace.

        1. Indeed. A Monkee with talent.

          Michael Nesmith was a guy with legitimate musical talent. He is credited as the inventor of the modern music video.

    1. Whether or not they bring back the Alberta Provincial Police they should institute an Alberta Provincial Police Reserve that are required to personally own a semi-auto rifle suitable for SWAT team use. A quicky course, no duties until called, and no retirement age.

      1. “Also, since Provincial Chief Firearms Officers are responsible for issuing authorization to transport and authorization to carry, firearms’ regulation procedures differ between provinces. ”

        It isn’t all federal. The asshole that stops me from packing my pistol while I’m out fencing in bear and cougar country works for the Alberta government. He is the same asshole who freely hands out permits for security of those with lots of cash.

    2. This is the kind of steps that can bit by bit lead to serious change at the very least and outright separation at the most. We need more of this.

          1. I BEAT CHA.
            saw Johnny @ varsity stadium in Tranna a month or so BEFORE Voodschtock.
            He closed the show first night.
            my thought and recollection since:
            I *never knew* someone could. play. guitar. that. fast.
            the night sky, the spotlite on him and nothing else lit up except the exits.
            Im in the mosh pit, taking it all in.
            I am gifted with an encyclopedic recollection of events in my life, THAT is one of them.
            (one of the main reasons I took the trouble to get there)

    1. Quebec seems to have a problem with, how do I put the daintily, shit. Way too often it goes straight into the St. Lawrence.

      1. RCMP has his back, Liberal Judges have his back, like adscam he can just talk about golf like Chretien did with the special Liberal appointed liberal judge

      2. “What did Trudeau know and when did he know it?”

        Irrelevant – clearly the bribe was not big enough.

  2. Blackie’s CBC is excited about a new Canadian movie hitting the theatres. It tells the heart breaking story of white racist soldiers returning from World War One, and their persecution of immigrants, blacks, and indians during the Winnipeg strike. Its also a musical.

    1. Steve, I’m sure the 11 people who are paying for the CBC Premium channel are enjoying it.

  3. Plans to up the immigration quota to + 600,000 in 2020. If things go bad in HongKong Vancouver can expect, what 500 to 1 million refugees? The fact there are few jobs for these people is a minor problem

    1. The 2015 Election was a failed National IQ Test.

      The 2019 Election killed a country.

      The Canadian Media was an accomplice in the murder.

      Canada = dead peoplekind walking.

  4. “Daimler AG plans to eliminate thousands of jobs worldwide to revive profit margins squeezed by heavy investments in electric and self-driving vehicles, following on the heels of rivals BMW AG and Volkswagen AG’s Audi division in mapping out cost savings.”

    https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/mercedes-benz-parent-daimler-plans-thousands-of-job-cuts-worldwide-1.1355145

    Seems as though no one is making money on electric and self-driving cars these days. Daimler AG (Mercedes Benz) is cutting spending by 1.5 billion Euros.

    1. Will never understand how it is ok to use tax dollars for sports arena’s for multimillionaire players. CORPORATE Welfare by the working class. Always remember the Sky Dome scam in Toronto news. The city said it had to be done, the provincial government said it had to be done. So it was built with 600 m in tax dollars. A couple of years back it was sold off to private investors for 50m. A criminal waste of tax dollars. No one ever held to account. All politicians should have to undergo full forensic accounting every year.

    2. They’re finally getting the message though. For the first time I can remember since moving to Calgary about 10 years ago, my municipal taxes on my house are going down. I suspect that No-fun Nenshi thinks that we’ll all be crying to raise taxes when some service cuts kick in. (hint: very few of us would).

    3. The green line was supposed to cost $4.6 billion and service the north and south suburbs.

      Then it became $4.5 billion just for the central portion. Not serving the north and only a tiny bit of the south.

      Now it’s $4.9 billion, and we are hearing reports of “potential” problems tunneling through the downtown. And construction hasn’t even started.

      I’ll bet this will cost $10 to $15 billion if it is allowed to continue.

      1. Tell me again why it is even necessary. And if so let the user pay full price just like gasoline/diesel vehicle owners have to pay. If the ridership is not there let them walk. I DON’T CARE.

  5. iPolitics reports that Blackie’s General Vance is warning about global violence because of global warming. He also discussed at the conference in Halifax the role of women in the military.

    1. So the government should not allow the Liberal government members and officials to fly anywhere warmer than Ottawa.

      If 1C temp rise means violence how can the military allow their aircraft to carry Trudeau to some place that is 20 to 30C warmer than Ottawa.

      1. Can you imagine if we could shame them into actually living their Climate-Stupid Scam reality?

        Demand it.

        No flying , no vacations, off the grid………….let them show us the way.

        Oh yeah.

        Another battle lost and never fought by “Conservatives”.

        Who knew Conservative stood for sitting on your fat ass, complaining and not much else.

    1. It would be a simple solution. You have to buy a pass before you can even enter the subway system. But the subways were designed for essentially “honest people”. That says a lot.

      1. Transit in Italy is honour system. Even the secure parking lot was free, the payment system shut off.
        Trains were fast, clean, quiet, orderly.

        1. “Most governments around the world owe a fortune. But the Italian debt pile would make most others blush. Italy owes $2.3 trillion (€2.06 trillion) in public debt. That’s around 133% of its GDP — a massive ratio that puts it in the top five in the world.”

          Now, another term with Math Doesn’t Matter Junior, ably emboldened by the also innumerate NDP, will certainly increase Canadian “Free Stuff”, and the Quebec-Toronto Liberal Party can most assuredly do fascism, if that is what it takes to make the trains run on time, but let’s face it, the Climate Luddites won’t be happy until we are all fake canoeing like Dumb Leader.

          The Simpleton is a Canadian Media creation and a perfect exemplar, a pretty face, an empty head and evil intentions.

  6. Out highly esteemed, woke (in)justice system at work: the Guyanese-born mass shooter, of the Eaton’s shooting in Toronto, finally is sentenced for his crime of murdering two people and injuring numerous others. And he could be out in 16 months, with a possible socially progressive parole board ruling:
    https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/toronto-eaton-centre-killer-sentenced-to-life-in-prison-but-could-be-eligible-for-parole-in-16-months-1.4708468

    The learned judge in this case mentioned that the perp is black, and has a disadvantaged background, etc., and these facts weighed on his decision for a light sentence. Mr. Husbands, the perp, originally was sentenced to 30 years for murder, but the Ontario Court of Appeal threw out that verdict.

    1. DM:
      my sad ‘joke’ about the legal cystem (as opposed to JUSTICE system), if ya want to murser someone,
      practice driving drunk, stalk them, them RUN THEM OVER with a well practiced blood alcohol of oh, 1.2 more or less.
      and speaking of less, ya get a lot LESS time, more like 3, 4 5 max instead of 20 actual years. or ummmm, ‘adjusted’
      by LIEberal thinking on these matters.
      this story makes my joke a case of life imitating fcukin art, the ‘art’ of standup ‘comedy’.
      featuring a muslime name again . . . . .

  7. “Instead of trying to shoehorn conservative Ontario into WEXIT”

    I say go as far as Thunder Bay if they want us. Being on the Great Lakes would allow us to ship oil by lake freighter or small ocean going tanker to salt water. If nothing else, use US ships and the Canadian government would have no say.

    1. Thunder Bay is a commie shithole. I don’t think they have had a conservative MP ever? A hard core town of unionistas. They’re idea of voting right wing is going librano from ndp.

      The place is an urban rez. 25% native.

      They would have no more interest in joining an independent west than I would have in voting for red rachael

  8. As to the recent London Bridge stabbings, where am Islamic terrorist murdered two innocent people and seriously wounded three more, the Globe and Mail does its level best to disguise the fact that it was a terrorist attack:
    https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-two-killed-in-terrorist-attack-by-knife-wielding-man-on-london/

    If one clicks on the above link, one sees the actual headline, which reads “Two Killed in ‘Terrorist’ Attack by Knife-Wielding Man on London Bridge”. That is, the terrorist-sympathetic Globe puts, in the headline, sneer quotes (or scare quotes), implying that there is some doubt as to whether or not this was a terrorist attack.

    The insertion of quotes around “terrorist” in the headline is no trivial issue. The actual article is Reuters article, and is decently factual as to facts — and the writers do not use the sneer quotes around their use of terrorist. The state, accurately, that the London police are calling it a terrorist event.

    This is obvious: the perp had been convicted of terrorism years before; he was wearing a fake suicide belt; he is of Arab-Muslim decent. Yet the Globe uses sneer quotes, when the facts are obvious. This support for terrorism is one of the values of the Globe and Nail.

    1. “A redhead in a uniform will always get you horny” – so said Tom Waits. I remember seeing a redhead in an olive drab T-shirt at Milcon 1984 at MTC Dundurn, Saskatchewan. He was right. I have a Tom Waits album from back in the day. Loved the guy.

  9. OMG Ron MacLean just said ” …I don’t see you as black and then I realized what an idiot I am. Of course I don’t see him as black because I have white male privilege. It isn’t even in my radar to worry about such a thing.”
    The f**ker has jumped the shark!

    1. Watch

      Good for him.

      I hung a little meat myself today. Got me moose as the boys in NFLD might say. Liver and onions all the way around.

      LG

      1. Good for you man. He has been out almost everyday, way to many wolves and coyotes. Did see a few moose but no tag. After things settle down we are going after coyotes and wolves.
