If you read Wikipedia about the .600 Nitro Express, they also explain the phenomenon. In the early days of trench warfare on the western front in WWI, the Germans took to letting-in steel plates with holes in them, to their sandbagged front lines; German snipers would cozy-up behind them and snipe through the holes at the Allies. Oh, those naughty Germans…
Two ways were come-up with to counter these steel plates. The first (which is not in the Wikipedia article; I’ve heard about it for decades but never seen it in print) was to pull the bullets from standard .303 rounds, put them backward in the cartridge cases, and shoot at the steel plates with them. The backward bullets would squash against the steel plates and act like a poor man’s HESH round, causing a small chunk of steel to spall-off the back of the plate; this would smack into the sniper’s face and occasionally cost him an eye. Not usually fatal, but a pretty authoritative way to tell the sniper “Yeah we know you’re there, arschloch…”
Seeking something better, the British Army canvassed their English homebodies for bigger and more effective rifles, the sort of thing the upper-crust might have lying-about the manor house for their regular trips to Africa to hunt elephants; several were donated, including a number of .600 Nitro Express. These were outstandingly effective, and would collapse the snipers’ steel plates with a single hit – not surprising when you consider that they possess ~4 foot-tons of muzzle energy. But they had to be shot standing or kneeling, the better for the shooter’s body to absorb the truly monstrous recoil – one British infantryman who shot one in the prone position, had his collarbone broken thereby. And when tanks came-along, these rifles no doubt provided the genesis of the resulting anti-tank rifles.
For those of you thrilled or spooked by the concept of shooting elephant guns at steel plates, check-out Wikipedia’s description of the largest commonly-made elephant gun, the 2-bore.
Interesting, but putting the .303 bullet backwards? And then still having a degree of accuracy to hit a steel plate over the no mans land? Don’t know about that.
“And when tanks came-along, these rifles no doubt provided the genesis of the resulting anti-tank rifles.”
The only WWI AT rifle that comes to mind was German. Did British develop one too? seems unlikely given that Germans had fielded very few tanks during that war.
All that proves is that there are at least 100,000 traitors in this country, at least as far as Prinz Dummkopf is concerned.
This petition will not make an iota of difference. Elections have consequences. Take your AR to the range a last few times.
Then get ready for Aladdin to allow municipalities regulate handgun access.
you are only legally required to give them a stripped lower, nothing more, that is the law
1. And without a stripped lower you will be doing what with it?
2. When jackbooted thugs come for the guns. They will brutalize you under a slimiest of excuses. You telling them what the law is, will likely result in severe injuries followed by made up charges of resisting arrest and assaulting a police officer. JBTs are only accountable to their political masters and when it comes to guns have unequivocal support of lobotomized judges. Double that if you’re a white male. You have no recourse. We live under a tyranny. Let that sink in.
Yeah, I used to like MEC, back in the late 70s they were a dusty little shop in a rundown part of town and they had good stuff at a good price for outdoor sports. Then there was a little flurry about boycotting Jew products, and their prices sure shot up. Then, I think it was last year members got a long email from the new CEO that was some kind of racist rant obsessing about skin colour. Then they closed stores for the climate strike. Well, there’s plenty of competition now for their market, they can serve the wealthy woke.
Never liked mec. Don’t like the co-op retail model. Poor service, staff with attitude. Good riddance. They don’t have anything you can’t find elsewhere
I seem to remember they started in Seattle, which explains all of that.. A richer Portland.
Wow what a concept re-invest some of the profits in the company and employees to keep going…… How did they last this long?????? Steve O
MEC was fine back in the early 80’s….
Guess what happens when you allow UNIONS in..?? your Costs Skyrocket.
No surprise there.
I haven’t visited one of their stores in a few yrs….far too pricey for my liking.
Omar Khadr To Give Speech At University Event Hosted By CBC Reporter https://www.spencerfernando.com/2020/01/23/omar-khadr-to-give-speech-at-university-event-hosted-by-cbc-reporter/
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
L- Canada’s most famous and multi-millionaire(thanks to P.M. Justin Trudeau) convicted Islamist terrorist to give a public talk on the subject of child soldiers… So, who across the world is most likely to view Omar Khadr as a poster boy ?
During last fall’s federal election, no political party raised the issue of the $10.5 million Justin Trudeau gave to this Al-Quaeda I.E.D. maker. Even though the action was viewed as an outrage by the majority of Canadians. 18 years after Al-Quaida’s attack on 9/11, Canada’s political class have surrendered.
File under ‘I want a new country’.
Urban women love Blackie and love poor child soldiers especially those who make IED’s or was it EFP’s?
If Blackie had been a child soldier who made explosives to kill nasty American and Canadian soldiers, urban Canadian women would swoon from orgasmic delight and the CBC would blame Harper.
“File under ‘I want a new country’.”
Also file under “Goodbye, Mister Scheer.”
ah.
the topic is child soldiers.
some kind of recruiting drive?
I want just enough of the khadr money be turned into a vest suicide bomb that
turns the TURDoo 2.0 into a bloody smudge on the sidewalk.
More than 13.9 million trees cut down in Scotland to make room for windmills.
Where’s Greta? Off socializing with the Davos jet set.
It is a good thing that CO2 is not a pollutant but something needed to sustain life on the planet. As the wind turbines die and solar panels stop functioning in Canada and the so called sustainable energy is not so sustainable, we will eventually get back to coal.
Blackie The Gay Pirate just can’t keep his hands off the justice system. And always with bad results. Brian Lilley at the Toronto Sun website explains how hundreds of murderers will get new trials because of Justin. And Blackie’s Toronto Star is excited that six thousand young people heard Obama rant in Toronto yesterday.
Where did the young people get the money to hear Obama speak? If it was an open event, who paid? Obama does not do freebies.
It seems that Canadians have inherited their preference for living on bended knee.
Our dystopian future on display.
With much worse yet to come.
Boomers have lost the world.
And I can’t believe how little Canadians care for their children’s and grandchildren’s bleak futures.
“Live facial recognition cameras will be deployed across London, with the city’s Metropolitan Police announcing today that the technology has moved past the trial stage and is ready to be permanently integrated into everyday policing.
The cameras will be placed in locations popular with shoppers and tourists, like Stratford’s Westfield shopping center and the West End, reports BBC News. Each camera will scan for faces contained in “bespoke” watch lists, which the Met says will predominantly contain individuals “wanted for serious and violent offences.”
Hey, we can fall a lot lower.
All we need is some more American Media to do the job the Canadian Media won’t.
Of course not everything is as attractive to the US Media as catching a Progressive Liberal Blackfacing it up!
Hilarity and hypocrisy ensue.
Hopefully the US Media adopts one Canadian Media habit.
When the domestic news is bad for your favorite Liberal government focus on the bad news of your neighbours across the 49th.(although strangely enough, 50% of Cdns live below the 49th)
Be assured your SNCing/Sidewinding/Adscamming/Charbonneau Liberal Party would provide such a veritable treasure trove of corruption and treason that even the most comatose Canadian would catch on.
If only.
Among its many Marxism is wonderful stories, Maclean’s magazine has Canada’s favourite Anglican minister trash Doug Ford. Yes Michael Coren takes a break from promoting gay sex to explain that Doug Ford is destroying education in Ontario because he is a right wing fanatic. Doug Ford hates teachers and won’t give them the big raise they deserve.
Is he Anglican now? I wish he’d make his mind up
He is on his way to deist, then atheist – whichever pays better. A hireling with quisling overtones.
Robert, if the prevailing political winds reverse course and blow conservative, he will convert back to Roman Catholicism. Mr. Coren’s view go where the money is.
QUESTION:
Mr. Armstrong…HOW DARE YOU!!!!!????
My brother lives in Edmonton, AB where the surface air temperature is a refreshing -23F as of 6:30 pm MST this evening. I am in the coastal northeast where if that temperature were to occur, there would probably be a societal breakdown with tens of thousands frozen to death overnight along with power outage, looting, and rioting. But in Edmonton, things just roll along like another day.
In the case of medieval Europe, would you say that the Huns may have been motivated in the 5th century AD to move east out of the steppe lands into western Europe due to the colder climate? Also, in the 6th century during the intensified cold, the Gothic wars erupted which led to a major depopulation of the Italian peninsula. Then in the 7th century, there seems to have been so little history documented that the misery taking place there may have been at an extreme degree at that time. Were there any coins minted during the 7th century in western Europe? The ones you showed of Peppin the Short and Charles the Great from the 8th century are fascinating! Also, did Charles Martel have any minted for him in the early 8th century?
JD
I appreciate his reasons, however I cannot help but think CPC is doomed.
Bluetech…… I heard this last night and came to the same conclusion.. CPC might as well cross the isle and join the Liberals and make it one big happy family… I think we are doomed as a country….. Steve O
Steve:
well it would certainly clarify the truth about Cdn politics.
so much easier to vote eh?
I’ve got it, the ‘all for one and one for all’ party.
If the CPC is doomed, then the country is also doomed. The Liberal charade will not go on forever.
153 years and counting……
No a new party can emerge. Walk away from the CPC.
“His departure leaves current MP Erin O’Toole and former MP Peter MacKay as the front runners.”
Is it too early to start a meme? – “ANYBODY but MacKay!” Now there’s a guy who can truly be called “last-millennium’s-news” – and I’m sure if he had anything either ‘conservative’ to say, or worth listening-to in the first place, he’d’ve been a serious front-runner for Party leadership decades ago.
Go home Peter, nobody gives a $hit about you.
The CPC will divide into 1. conservatives who are liberal thinkers; 2. conservatives who still believe they are 19th century Liberals; 3. the rest of us who see Max as the standard bearer ( but please change the name from that Commie “People’s Party” title to something better). Submissions welcome.
I’ll stay away from the K-becer angle for once…if Max wasn’t half nuts and if IT wasn’t all about HIM he would have joined the Libertarian Party of Canada.
Half the potheads in the country probably don’t know the difference between the Libertarians and the Liberals and with the boost he would have given them they probably would have gotten a few thousand more votes.
At least they have a proper, sane platform and no higher percentage of cuckoos than any other party.
Blackie’s going to be the lisping, laidback paddywhack PM for the next 20 years cuz the conservative vote is splintered.
Maybe, but only if the Canadian dollar lasts that long.
Thing is, from what I’ve heard, Trudeau shut his mouth as he grew the beard. Stepped back and led Freeland take the reins. My hope is he gets to take a long walk in the snow soonish.
The thought of McKay as leader…..meh…….I might as well vote for Krusty the Clown, Rhino, or the Anarchists.
Same difference. Pathetic choice, Scheer Redux!
Robert, if the prevailing political winds reverse course and blow conservative, he will convert back to Roman Catholicism. Mr. Coren’s views go where the money is.
Gary Trudeau ran a Doonesbury strip about someone like that many years ago. A young couple had moved into the neighbourhood and spoke with what’s-his-name the left-wing clergyman. They weren’t particularly pleased about what his church had to offer, so they debated whether to go to one of a different denomination that had fringe benefits like a daycare centre or some such thing.
On the Post Millennial web site, there is a compelling article that states that the Corona virus in China is much worse than what is being said in the media. What makes the artivce compelling is that they include twitter videos of people lying sick in the streets, and being picked up by ambulances, and of huge crowds of sick in hospitals.
Media reports this morning say 40-million Chinese are being quarantined.
CAHN is the new Canadian SPLC. And wait till you see who is attached to it:

@MaximeBernier
This is a long but important article for anyone concerned about free speech in Canada.
It exposes the dishonest tactics of the so-called Canadian “Anti-Hate” Network, a far left outfit allied with Antifa thugs that attacked the PPC last year.
Canada’s SPLC
CAHN began operations in early 2018, billing itself as an “independent, nonprofit organization made up of Canada’s leading experts and researchers on hate groups and hate crimes.” Its mandate, according to CAHN’s website, “is to monitor, research, and counter hate groups by providing education and information on hate groups to the public, media, researchers, courts, law enforcement, and community groups.” And it makes no bones about the inspiration for its domestic anti-hate crusade. In a letter to a House of Commons committee introducing itself to Canadian parliamentarians last April, CAHN claimed to be “modelled after, and supported by, the esteemed Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) in the United States.” The letter was delivered several weeks after the no-longer-esteemed Dees was fired for allegations of sexual and racial misconduct.
This group is terrified that any suggestion of dissent from the Hive Mind will cause people to think for themselves. The unopposed march of Progressivism fears they will not be on the ‘right side of history’. Questioning Immigration, the Weather Changing, the CBC, or Wonderkinder Trudeau fractures the glasses we have been given to see our rosy future as a Post National Paradise. A bio of each ‘speaker’ reveals each and every one to be a SJW.
Faith lays out America’s historical immigration reforms to build a case for a total and complete immigration moratorium.
Sounds good to me. Let’s appease the Open Borders group with “it’s too much of a ‘good’ thing”.
Faith is an idiot, and VDare is a white supremacist site. Lets please ignore the nutcases. Immigration has been extremely good for us.
Only UnMe is an idiot
Gotta have Faith
Thanks for posting the c2c article on Canada Anti-Hate Network. It exposes the political extremism of Bernie Farber and other, who run this far left outfit.
Coronoa virus outbreak linked to eating bats. See link above

Buddy, soon as macron is ousted, blackie the dullard will be on Turdo island with only its self and buttsy to denigrate the great president to the south. Then there might just be a 5eyes declassification of info. Maybe then the dopey women who voted this thing in will see how brainwashed they have become by only watching blackies theebeethee.
I hate to harp solely on the ladies especially considering the host of this site, but its a fact that many women will choose security over liberty, even the illusion of security – like no guns for law-abiding peaceful citizens (Heaven forbid concealed-carry for themselves!) while criminals are emboldened by the confiscation putting them in even more peril.
I don’t think Blackie or Buttsplug are going anywhere but hope that I’m very wrong.
Bresking over the news wires: a second traveler to the U.S. has the coronavirus.
On January 22, 1973, Americans woke up to a different republic. At the will of seven unelected justices, Roe v. Wade made dramatically expanded abortion access both the policy and the law for our entire country. The opinion was an alarm bell, a warning that the moral dimension of our country had been irrevocably altered and would continue to change unless something stopped it. Speaking conservatively, 61 million babies have since been killed under this regime.
I was in an open market in guangchow across the border from Macau in 1988 and can attest to this.
it is a cultural tradition going back thousands of years.
The new fad disease called the “coronavirus” is sweeping headlines.
Funny enough, there was a patent for the coronavirus was filed in 2015 and granted in 2018.
US Patent for Coronavirus Patent (Patent # 10,130,701)
This assignee of this patent was the government funded Pirbright Institute out of the UK.
And would you look at that, some of their major funders are the World Health Organization and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Funny how the WHO recently said that vaccine hesitancy was one of the leading threats to global health in 2019.
And how much funding has the Gates Foundation given to vaccine programs throughout the years?
Was the release of this disease planned?
Is the media being used to incite fear around it?
Is the Cabal desperate for money, so they’re tapping their Big Pharma reserves?
Are there vaccines already being manufactured to “fight” this?
Coordinated all along?
Interesting timing of when this disease is hitting the headlines.
According to the patent, it was created to be used as a vaccine for infectious bronchitis.
The virus is designed to attack the lung. Other solution is ECMO but extremely expensive as hemodialysis.
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a treatment that uses a pump to circulate blood through an artificial lung back into the bloodstream of a very ill baby. This system provides heart-lung bypass support outside of the baby’s body.
Oh my God! Doug Ford is worse than Hitler. Blackie’s Toronto Star is outraged that Ford stated that three of his daughters are with police officers, and he even appointed a police officer to the Human Rights Commission. Is there no stopping dictator Ford and his Gestapo? The Toronto Star will keep us updated.
Coffee row – ssdd – I go once a year to find out what I have (or haven’t) been doing !
Rex Murphy writes about old white men at the National Post.
The political panels at Blackie’s CBC and CTV are again ranting about homophobia in the bigoted Conservative Party. According to Blackie and his media there are only three issues that are important. Gay rights, whiny indians, and global warming. Not health care issues, certainly not the housing crisis, and of course not that Canadians are living from paycheck to paycheck.
The problem here is that weirdos like the Dechounier guy keep turning up in high places in the CPC and other conservative orgs. He was a Deputy Chief of Staff under Harper, and he thinks being gay is a choice and that the government should defend ‘tradition values’.
Can SoCons please just get raptured already? Canada and the CPC would both be better off.
Well at least he didn’t wear blackface and assault women.
How tiresome.
Maybe the panelists should have asked somebody with experience as to whether the gay life style is a choice or not?
I had hoped that Canada might offer a guiding light for the US right when it collapses with Trump. That was apparently too optimistic. MacKay might be worse than Scheer.
Can conservatism please just die already? It’s just a mental paradigm for people who can’t think.
Communist Canada is a guiding light to totalitarianism
President Trump’s full speech at 2020 March for Life
Angel-
I was just going to post that link….My husband and I watched Rudy on ‘Fox and Friends’ today and subsequently subscribed to his podcast. It’s similar quality to Mark Levin’s show. Both Rudy and Mark know the U.S. Constitution and recognize the sham that is the Trump ‘impeachment’. We’ll be watching every episode. Canadian news, for the most part, is partisan and shallow.
No worries but the Chicoms are currently building a 1000 bed hospital for Snakebit corona people and plan on having it done in a week. WTF?! Probably won’t kill more than a handful doing it and as long as there’s no earthquake…
Cindy McCain admission about Jeffrey Epstein: “We All Knew What He Was Doing.” No one would go after him because they were afraid of him.

To love for the sake of being loved is human, but to love for the sake of loving is angelic.
Let us enjoy the fugitive hour.
Man has no harbour, time has no shore; it rushes on, and carries us with it.

Then in the 7th century, there seems to have been so little history documented that the misery taking place there may have been at an extreme degree at that time. Were there any coins minted during the 7th century in western Europe? The ones you showed of Peppin the Short and Charles the Great from the 8th century are fascinating! Also, did Charles Martel have any minted for him in the early 8th century?

I appreciate his reasons, however I cannot help but think CPC is doomed.
Bluetech…… I heard this last night and came to the same conclusion.. CPC might as well cross the isle and join the Liberals and make it one big happy family… I think we are doomed as a country….. Steve O
Steve:
well it would certainly clarify the truth about Cdn politics.
so much easier to vote eh?
I’ve got it, the ‘all for one and one for all’ party.
If the CPC is doomed, then the country is also doomed. The Liberal charade will not go on forever.
153 years and counting……
No a new party can emerge. Walk away from the CPC.
“His departure leaves current MP Erin O’Toole and former MP Peter MacKay as the front runners.”
Is it too early to start a meme? – “ANYBODY but MacKay!” Now there’s a guy who can truly be called “last-millennium’s-news” – and I’m sure if he had anything either ‘conservative’ to say, or worth listening-to in the first place, he’d’ve been a serious front-runner for Party leadership decades ago.
Go home Peter, nobody gives a $hit about you.
The CPC will divide into 1. conservatives who are liberal thinkers; 2. conservatives who still believe they are 19th century Liberals; 3. the rest of us who see Max as the standard bearer ( but please change the name from that Commie “People’s Party” title to something better). Submissions welcome.
I’ll stay away from the K-becer angle for once…if Max wasn’t half nuts and if IT wasn’t all about HIM he would have joined the Libertarian Party of Canada.
Half the potheads in the country probably don’t know the difference between the Libertarians and the Liberals and with the boost he would have given them they probably would have gotten a few thousand more votes.
At least they have a proper, sane platform and no higher percentage of cuckoos than any other party.
Blackie’s going to be the lisping, laidback paddywhack PM for the next 20 years cuz the conservative vote is splintered.
Maybe, but only if the Canadian dollar lasts that long.
Thing is, from what I’ve heard, Trudeau shut his mouth as he grew the beard. Stepped back and led Freeland take the reins. My hope is he gets to take a long walk in the snow soonish.
The thought of McKay as leader…..meh…….I might as well vote for Krusty the Clown, Rhino, or the Anarchists.
Same difference. Pathetic choice, Scheer Redux!
Robert, if the prevailing political winds reverse course and blow conservative, he will convert back to Roman Catholicism. Mr. Coren’s views go where the money is.
Gary Trudeau ran a Doonesbury strip about someone like that many years ago. A young couple had moved into the neighbourhood and spoke with what’s-his-name the left-wing clergyman. They weren’t particularly pleased about what his church had to offer, so they debated whether to go to one of a different denomination that had fringe benefits like a daycare centre or some such thing.
On the Post Millennial web site, there is a compelling article that states that the Corona virus in China is much worse than what is being said in the media. What makes the artivce compelling is that they include twitter videos of people lying sick in the streets, and being picked up by ambulances, and of huge crowds of sick in hospitals.
Media reports this morning say 40-million Chinese are being quarantined.

CAHN is the new Canadian SPLC. And wait till you see who is attached to it:

@MaximeBernier
This is a long but important article for anyone concerned about free speech in Canada.
It exposes the dishonest tactics of the so-called Canadian “Anti-Hate” Network, a far left outfit allied with Antifa thugs that attacked the PPC last year.
Canada’s SPLC
CAHN began operations in early 2018, billing itself as an “independent, nonprofit organization made up of Canada’s leading experts and researchers on hate groups and hate crimes.” Its mandate, according to CAHN’s website, “is to monitor, research, and counter hate groups by providing education and information on hate groups to the public, media, researchers, courts, law enforcement, and community groups.” And it makes no bones about the inspiration for its domestic anti-hate crusade. In a letter to a House of Commons committee introducing itself to Canadian parliamentarians last April, CAHN claimed to be “modelled after, and supported by, the esteemed Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) in the United States.” The letter was delivered several weeks after the no-longer-esteemed Dees was fired for allegations of sexual and racial misconduct.

This group is terrified that any suggestion of dissent from the Hive Mind will cause people to think for themselves. The unopposed march of Progressivism fears they will not be on the ‘right side of history’. Questioning Immigration, the Weather Changing, the CBC, or Wonderkinder Trudeau fractures the glasses we have been given to see our rosy future as a Post National Paradise. A bio of each ‘speaker’ reveals each and every one to be a SJW.
Faith lays out America’s historical immigration reforms to build a case for a total and complete immigration moratorium.

Sounds good to me. Let’s appease the Open Borders group with “it’s too much of a ‘good’ thing”.
Faith is an idiot, and VDare is a white supremacist site. Lets please ignore the nutcases. Immigration has been extremely good for us.
Only UnMe is an idiot
Gotta have Faith
Thanks for posting the c2c article on Canada Anti-Hate Network. It exposes the political extremism of Bernie Farber and other, who run this far left outfit.

The Chinese eat a lot of ‘caught-in-the-wild’ fresh food. This may have been a mistake.
Buddy, soon as macron is ousted, blackie the dullard will be on Turdo island with only its self and buttsy to denigrate the great president to the south. Then there might just be a 5eyes declassification of info. Maybe then the dopey women who voted this thing in will see how brainwashed they have become by only watching blackies theebeethee.
I hate to harp solely on the ladies especially considering the host of this site, but its a fact that many women will choose security over liberty, even the illusion of security – like no guns for law-abiding peaceful citizens (Heaven forbid concealed-carry for themselves!) while criminals are emboldened by the confiscation putting them in even more peril.
I don’t think Blackie or Buttsplug are going anywhere but hope that I’m very wrong.

VOUGHT: The Most Pro-Life President In History
On January 22, 1973, Americans woke up to a different republic. At the will of seven unelected justices, Roe v. Wade made dramatically expanded abortion access both the policy and the law for our entire country. The opinion was an alarm bell, a warning that the moral dimension of our country had been irrevocably altered and would continue to change unless something stopped it. Speaking conservatively, 61 million babies have since been killed under this regime.

Expecting headlines coming out soon: A Breakthrough “Expensive” Vaccine is Discovered to Treat Coronavirus.
Designer virus patented in US, attacking their sounder of swines then attacking their people, connect the dots …….
China – Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation

The new fad disease called the “coronavirus” is sweeping headlines.
Funny enough, there was a patent for the coronavirus was filed in 2015 and granted in 2018.
US Patent for Coronavirus Patent (Patent # 10,130,701)
https://patents.justia.com/patent/10130701
This assignee of this patent was the government funded Pirbright Institute out of the UK.
And would you look at that, some of their major funders are the World Health Organization and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Funny how the WHO recently said that vaccine hesitancy was one of the leading threats to global health in 2019.
And how much funding has the Gates Foundation given to vaccine programs throughout the years?
Was the release of this disease planned?
Is the media being used to incite fear around it?
Is the Cabal desperate for money, so they’re tapping their Big Pharma reserves?
Are there vaccines already being manufactured to “fight” this?
Coordinated all along?
Interesting timing of when this disease is hitting the headlines.
According to the patent, it was created to be used as a vaccine for infectious bronchitis.
The virus is designed to attack the lung. Other solution is ECMO but extremely expensive as hemodialysis.
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a treatment that uses a pump to circulate blood through an artificial lung back into the bloodstream of a very ill baby. This system provides heart-lung bypass support outside of the baby’s body.
Oh my God! Doug Ford is worse than Hitler. Blackie’s Toronto Star is outraged that Ford stated that three of his daughters are with police officers, and he even appointed a police officer to the Human Rights Commission. Is there no stopping dictator Ford and his Gestapo? The Toronto Star will keep us updated.

The political panels at Blackie’s CBC and CTV are again ranting about homophobia in the bigoted Conservative Party. According to Blackie and his media there are only three issues that are important. Gay rights, whiny indians, and global warming. Not health care issues, certainly not the housing crisis, and of course not that Canadians are living from paycheck to paycheck.
The problem here is that weirdos like the Dechounier guy keep turning up in high places in the CPC and other conservative orgs. He was a Deputy Chief of Staff under Harper, and he thinks being gay is a choice and that the government should defend ‘tradition values’.
Can SoCons please just get raptured already? Canada and the CPC would both be better off.
Well at least he didn’t wear blackface and assault women.
How tiresome.
Maybe the panelists should have asked somebody with experience as to whether the gay life style is a choice or not?

I had hoped that Canada might offer a guiding light for the US right when it collapses with Trump. That was apparently too optimistic. MacKay might be worse than Scheer.
Can conservatism please just die already? It’s just a mental paradigm for people who can’t think.

I was just going to post that link….My husband and I watched Rudy on ‘Fox and Friends’ today and subsequently subscribed to his podcast. It’s similar quality to Mark Levin’s show. Both Rudy and Mark know the U.S. Constitution and recognize the sham that is the Trump ‘impeachment’. We’ll be watching every episode. Canadian news, for the most part, is partisan and shallow.
No worries but the Chicoms are currently building a 1000 bed hospital for Snakebit corona people and plan on having it done in a week. WTF?! Probably won’t kill more than a handful doing it and as long as there’s no earthquake…

To love for the sake of being loved is human, but to love for the sake of loving is angelic.
Let us enjoy the fugitive hour.
Man has no harbour, time has no shore; it rushes on, and carries us with it.
Love alone was left, as a great image of a dream that was erased.
