  1. I know it is CTV but this is the best by-province breakdown of Wuhan Kung Flu I have seen so far https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/coronavirus/tracking-every-case-of-covid-19-in-canada-1.4852102

    Some interesting results, I trusted the opinion of many here that Alberta undertests and one of the resident idiots claimed BC done extensive testing. Does not appear to be true either way.
    Tests in BC: 45,966
    Tests in Alberta: 57,096
    Also, high Kebek detection counts may be a result of more extensive testing.

    Oh and the global kill rate among detected cases went up to 5.4%

    1. Numbers are very important, the factual numbers and their comparisons with previous flu deaths. Remember that the death toll will have to get to 3,177,204 before it can match the death toll from the flu a year ago. So far the global kill rate has not exceeded 2% of cases and is much lower than the seasonal flu. Number are important just not BS numbers. We are destroying our country and our people. I have developed a serious dislike for my fellow stupid Canadians.

      1. You have little clue what you are talking about. Global kill rate is at 5.4% among detected cases. It is in double digits in Italy, France, Spain and UK. Not a single number I have linked or posted was a BS number.

    2. Estimates are just wild guesses. We do not have sufficient testing. We do not have sufficient masks nor publicity about masks. I liked yesterday’s Czech example.

      Instead we get handwaving. Ontario’s announcement of an “estimate” of between 3000 and 15000 deaths is not an estimate. it’s a wild arsed guess based upon no information.

      I can only hope the stupid and lazy people in government learn from the South Korean and Czech examples. Have an emergency reserve of masks and testing apparatus; have plans to ramp up production in an emergency; encourage the population to wear masks all the time in public. Test the general population as widely as possible, sick or not, to enable useful data to be available for rational decisions and isolate the infected and infirm. Testing can easily be done en masse at points of concentration of the public – transit hubs, public buildings, even at roadblocks; the testing programme must be continued until the emergency is over. Do not attempt a wholesale society shutdown, what I call isolating the population Do not destroy the economy.

      1. You’re all over the map here. I agree with your points regarding optimal response strategies but those have to be ready in advance. Yes telling Canadians now to improvise with masks would probably be beneficial. But apart for that there is little the government can cough up (excuse the pun) on the short notice. Of course not sending medical supplies to world’s number one state sponsor of bio terrorism would help too. The strategy summarizes as: “do not destroy economy” i.e. wishing the pandemic away, will not save the economy, it will do exact opposite, it will destroy the economy. See Ecuador above.

        Estimates are not wild guesses. Estimates are the best guesses available given the information we have. That is why they are called estimates. Statistical analysis and forecasting are not an exact science but are not woodoo either. The problem is translating the results for mainstream consumption (see my second post below).

        To put it in simplest terms: the probability of the guess being exactly correct is zero but the probability of the realization landing in an interval being centered around the predicted estimate is much higher than the probability of the realization landing very far from the predicted estimate. That already tells us a lot. The more data we have the more testing we do the more accurate our guess becomes. At no point should we stop estimating and trying to forecast.

    1. Boots, I could have written that piece for Prager because it says everything that I have been saying. Bang on, 100%.

    2. The broadcast was on March 24th and the death toll was around 200 in the US. Today it’s at 8,800. Our actual deaths seem to be tracking predictions on the projected death rates, as far as I can see: http://www.healthdata.org/covid/updates. “Based on the latest available data, a total of 93,531 COVID-19 deaths (range of 39,966 to 177,866) are currently predicted through the epidemic’s first wave.” The peak is expect in mid-April, over 2,000 deaths per day.

      I like Dennis Prager’s work, but I think he’s a being a little over-critical of the ‘expert’s’ inability to accurately predict the future. Maybe he ought to give us his best predictions. Our economy is taking a huge hit, yes, but a lot of people are jumping through their ass trying to make the situation better, some of them taking big risks all by themselves, and a lot of people are dying pretty miserable deaths.

      I read today that the death rate for this is higher than the battle death rate in WWII. True?

  2. https://amgreatness.com/2020/04/03/why-is-queens-the-hotspot-of-hotspots-in-the-nations-coronavirus-crisis/

    Answer: Queens has a huge infestation of vermin-eaters. The worst hit area is the Overseas Chinese colony of Elmhurst, where over half of COVID-19 tests have come back positive.

    Governor Cuomo, of course, preferred to persecute the Jews of New Rochelle, having been assured by a limp-wristed bishop, no doubt, that the Jews are behind every plague.

    The Jews don’t eat vermin. The Chinese do. Who do you suppose is behind every plague of human history?

    And when do you suppose President Trump will step in and remove Cuomo in favour of someone more interested in saving American lives than indulging the anti-Semitism of the Sicilian gutter?

    1. I’m no expert. I don’t think a President can remove a Governor. Only the voters can vote to recall and I don’t know if NY even has that as a law. If Trump did, wouldn’t that make him a fascist (and validate anyone with TDS)?

      It would be like Trudeau taking a run at Kenny. After we stopped laughing we would calm down and whine more about the CBC and watch some Netflix.

      I think every leading politician’s career In 2020 will be measured by the body count, and the bad ones will pathetically fight like hell to shift the blame.

      Are they a Quisling or a Churchill, only time will tell.

      1. There is precedent for removing traitors in office at the state level. It was called the Civil War.

    2. Who do you suppose is behind every plague of human history?
      The Jews of course. They were the only ones who moved from country to country in Europe in the 14th century, and brought the rats and fleas with them to spread the black plague.
      In case anyone missed the sarcasm, the above was said with tongue firmly planted in cheek. But is the kind of asinine statement that RT, erstwhile AC, would make about another ethnic group. Stupid assertions made without an iota of fact.
      If the implied answer to your question was Chinese, well you are dead wrong. The two most severe pandemics in history were the black plague in Europe culminating in the fourteenth century, killing a third of the population, and the Spanish flu spanning almost the entire three years from 1918 to 1920, infecting a quarter of the world’s population, and killing anywhere from 17 million to 50 million, possibly as high as 100 million. As with the black plague, the latter was also rampant in western Europe, and most likely exacerbated by the trench warfare the poor foot soldiers had to suffer through. Most likely those soldiers brought the flu back to their respective countries after the Armistice.
      Queens has a large Chinese population. It does not have a huge infestation of vermin-eaters. That is about as racist as you can get. I doubt any of the Chinese in Queens has ever eaten a vermin.

      1. – And it must not be forgotten why the Jews moved from country to country – crazy little thing called “pogroms”…

        1. Porgorm is a Russian word btw. RT aka AC never managed to square that circle.

          1. Well, it’s not like the Russians were the only ones doing it. I believe it was Barbara Tuchman in “A Distant Mirror” who looked at this. It was a common enough gouge that it was noticed as such, for the local potentate to invite the Jews to live in his Principate, and Jews fleeing other pogroms would move there as there were no alternatives and nowhere else to go. Jews have a number of traits that tend to make anybody successful, including a desire for education, a willingness to help other members of their community – which tended to be ethnocentric as all non-Jews had been whipped-into Jew-hate again and again and thus, hated the Jews as a matter of course – and a distaste for members of their community who lost self-control, particularly over the bottle. And these, in an age of widespread misery when drunkenness was usually the only mitigation and escape from awful living conditions, were very big things. As an example, four of the big-name nuclear physicists who built “the Bomb” were Jews who came from the same city block in Budapest, which illustrates just one more tranche of how Hitler’s hatred of Jews (among many other things) helped cost him the war. I consider it #2 among his all-time biggest mistakes, between attacking Russia and declaring war on the U.S. – YMMV.

            So the Jews would move into their new Principate and establish a community. The very disdain non-Jews often expressed for them, tended to turn these into ghettos – and Jews aren’t the only ethnic (if that’s the correct word) community who’ve suffered this; Chinese and Indian expatriates tell the same tale. The community, a hive of sober industry, would establish and prosper. Something would happen, unrelated to them. The local ruler would suddenly need, or often just decide he wanted, a lot of money quickly. He’d whistle-up a pogrom, descend upon the Jews, drive them shirtless out of his Principality and confiscate everything for himself, and the Jews would move on – lather, rinse, repeat.

            As Mark Twain used to say, “Such is the human race. At times it does seem a pity that Noah and party didn’t miss the boat.”

          2. “Well, it’s not like the Russians were the only ones doing it.”

            No doubt about that. Most of Europe did that (not to mention Middle East). In Europe the only two places that were reasonably (by comparison) tolerant of Jews were Poland and (for a shorter time) Netherlands. That is why for centuries, since late middle ages until the start of 19th century Jews from all over Western Europe run to Poland. And it is not that Poles loved them, they just did not kill them periodically and tended not to rob them with regularity. Then Poland herself got conquered for a century and Jews fell mostly under the control of RT/AC’s beloved Siberian Mongols. That is when the pogroms started and a scale unknown prior. Soon after, The Protocols of Elder’s of Zion (A tsarist forgery) were published as a justification for bestial Russian behavior.

            There is a wonderful book written by a Polish Jew Leopold Tyrmand about life under communism, the title is “Rosa Luxembourg’s Contraceptive Cooperative”. it reads like Kafka except it is all real. (Tyrmand, often called The Father of Polish Jazz, a true Renaissance man was fiercely anti-communist, eventually immigrated to US) In the book he includes a whole chapter about being a Jew in Poland, Russia and under communism. Brilliant writing well worth the time if you can find it.

      2. The virus is said to have originated in China, we are still allowing Chinese to fly into Canada untested. Yes folks, this is not the black plague but we are ignoring the source at our peril. Fools. By the way if we had the same sanitary conditions that existed during the black plague most people would be dead from a lack of an immune system.

        1. At this point we should be testing everyone entering the country, not just Chicoms.

          On the other hand, we should never allow into Canada anyone that Chicoms deem to have a sufficiently high social credit score to obtain a passport.

      3. The Black Death in Europe appears to have started with travel from East Asia along the Silk Road.
        The Spanish Flu is a little more difficult to trace, but some researchers have tied it to East Asian labourers brought in to work behind friendly lines, from there it may have mutated when it passed into the Western troops who were returning home from the war. So I would not think we are able to make a definitive judgement that these two historical pandemics did not have their origins in the Far East. As to racist comments, a person’s physical appearance and the genetic heritage have nothing to do with anything. However, the culture that they grew up in and follow may have a lot to do with which sources of food are allowed and which are forbidden, along with hygiene habits, or lack thereof, which help with the spread of disease. Not all cultures are equal in these regards.

        1. At least your statements are couched in conjectures.
          Why would the plague not travel the other way along the silk road then? It seems much more reasonable for it to have spread from an area where it was prevalent to an area which apparently had it under control. In fact, when the plague was rampant, ahem East Asia, as well as most of the known world east of Vienna, was ruled by the Mongols (Yuan dynasty in China, 1271-1368 AD). The Mongol reign was repressive, I don’t know if the Silk Road was still viable under them.
          As to the Spanish flu, the only “evidence” the “researchers” (aka propagandists) cited was there was very little fatality among the, ahem, East Asian laborers and therefore they must be carriers. What about the more reasonable conjecture that they must not have been infected? It is well known that many more soldiers forced to stand hours at a time in trenches with chest deep water died from diseases than bullets or shells. Why is it so difficult to believe that the conditions were also very conducive to flu?
          Most of the lack of hygienic practice are due to lack of resources, most noticeably lack of clean, fresh water. People who migrated to first world countries quickly adapt to the hygienic practice of the host country. Specifically, the wave of, ahem, East Asians who emigrated to Canada and America to avoid the Chicom were mostly of the more educated class, and did not have such problems. Over half of those I know in fact are either doctors or nurses. I cannot vouch for those who emigrated from Communist China. They lived their whole life under the Chicom, which had destroyed all traditional Chinese morality.
          As to diet, can you explain to me why is eating pigs raised for meat quite civilized and cultured, despite the edicts of the Old Testament, but eating dogs raised for meat, not explicitly forbidden therein, is barbaric and savage? Bear in mind there are people who treat pigs as pets, no less than dogs.

          1. All of our statements are from conjecture as we cannot know what really happened. The spread of the Black Plague was first documented by Europeans hearing of a ‘Great Pestilence’ ravaging the Near and Far East. In the early 1340s the Plague had struck China, India, Persia, and Egypt. It did not reach European shores until 1347, in the city of Messina. Looks like it spread East to West to me. As for the Spanish Flu, the conditions in the trenches in WW I were in existence from the end of 1914 on. Yet, no widespread influenza was noted until 1918. The conditions the troops lived in and the conditions of the camps they stayed in prior to returning home no doubt contributed to the spread of the Spanish Flu, but that does not mean it started there.
            Diet is a cultural construct, but there are risks in what you are using for your food supply. Different cultures have different values in what is deemed edible and expose themselves to different risks for infection. The idea of eating horse meat is repulsive to me due to my upbringing, but would be quite acceptable to someone from France. I’m not sure that horse meat exposes a population to any greater risk than beef does. Eating pigs is not viewed as civilized and cultured by a couple of religions, but this is more likely due to cultural values and experience (desert environment) than by a simple edict in the doctrine they follow.

      4. The plague that caused the Black Death originated in China in the early to mid-1300s and spread along trade routes westward to the Mediterranean and northern Africa. It reached southern England in 1348 and northern Britain and Scandinavia by 1350.

        1. Wow, were you there? You sound so definitive, as though your conjectures must be fact.
          As I said in my reply to Zippo above, it would be more reasonable to conjecture the plague to have spread from an area of high concentration to an area which somehow manged to not have suffered the pandemic, or had reacted to it correctly. (The rest of your conjecture did show it spreading from high concentration areas.) Anyway, I don’t know if the Silk Road was operative when the Mongols were rampant. The Yuan dynasty was repressive, and I am sure the later Chinese scholars would love to hang any problem on them if they could. Although a lot of atrocities had been ascribed to them, I have never heard of a plague epidemic under them.

          1. “I don’t know if the Silk Road was operative when the Mongols were rampant.”

            The Mongols were the ones that made the trade route safe.

  3. For Ontario residents: best detailed Wuhan Kung Flu official government modelling (PDF), scroll down to the fourth slide from the bottom with ICU capacity chart, you are not going to like it: http://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/6824779/COVID-19-Technical-Briefing-Friday-April-4-2020.pdf Blackie and his chicom masters really f***ed us.

    Also interesting is slide Cases in Ontario and Other Jurisdictions, we know it already but notice that on cross country comparison they did not even bother to include Chicoms? Wonder why? Heard from our chief graphic designer errr health minister that Chicom data is reliable.

  4. Tom Quiggin Talks Covid 19, Trudeau Trouble & CPC Decisions, (finishing withCanada’s is about to change)
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDA71IjxOlM&feature=emb_rel_end
    ——————————————————————————————————————————————————————–
    L- I recommend not watching this late at night, everyone needs enough sleep.

    1. Oh, horrors! A Canada without political correctness, a Canada in which the government is finally held accountable for its actions, a Canada in which misfits, screwballs, and perverts lose their influence on public policy, a Canada in which politicians will have to justify public spending….

      Yeah, that’ll be real frightening, but only if you’re an SJW, a millennial, or a globalist. In other words, this country might return to some semblance of what it was before the great Trudeau catastrophe which started in 1968.

  5. Hey remember Trumps n95 mask decision?

    Turns out the only source on the planet for the K10s pulp needed is in Nanaimo. Now the 3m memo makes more sense when they warned that invoking the act would result in LESS masks for Americans.

    Huuuuuge oooooof yet again by Trump. First the whole test kit fiasco which has cost and will cost many American lives, now this.

      1. So sorry. Little Potato and Dougie-boy Ford are waxing lyrical about “can’t express in words how disappointed we are in Trump” – from Yahoo News, of course:

        https://ca.yahoo.com/news/coronavirus-covid19-canada-latest-updates-190048955.html

        Well, whose country is Trump running? And whose country is his duty to take care of first? So yeah, maybe Little Potato shouldn’t’ve shipped those 16 tons of medical supplies to China – some of us may end-up needing them. And OrangeManBad will happily sell us masks – he’s a businessman after all – but not until the U.S. has enough for themselves; that’s what he was elected to do, and this is an election year in the U.S.

        Little Potato could learn a few things about how to lead a country here, if he wasn’t convinced beyond reason or evidence that he knows everything there is to know about it already. Dunning-Kruger 1, us 0, again as usual.

    1. K10s pulp? Nanaimo? We need some links. The world consumes 100s-of-millions of these masks every year. Nanaimo is the only source?

      1. I also am VERY skeptical. Common sense question: What is so special about the pulp from Vancouver Island that makes all other pulp unacceptable?!?

    2. There goes the narrative!

      That being said, it is not right to use violence against Canadian companies in retaliation for the USG using violence against theirs.

  6. Trudeau Just Sold Out Canada’s National Security To China
    https://www.spencerfernando.com/2017/03/28/treason-trudeau-just-sold-canadas-national-security-china/
    ——————————————————————————————————————————-
    L- I was going to write a letter to the government in charge in protest, but I don’t know Mandarin. Besides, my social credit score is so low. I’m lucky to still have two kidneys.

    1. Arrest him already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

    2. This is an article written in 2017 so, “just” sold out is misleading. This sorry excuse for a human being, never mind a PM, has been undermining national security since the day he was elected.

      1. I suspect the Spawn has a non-bestselling book with a huge advance in his future after politics.
        Of course, this may be 20 or 30 years from now and I am sure his Foundation will be Clintonized and Obamasized to the hundreds of millions by then.
        Maybe BabyDoc billions! BabyPet?
        Real money.
        Not those Canadian penny ante Petro-can fortunes. Adscam.SNC-Lavlin. Bombardier. Peanuts.
        To say nothing of the Liberal Sidewinder not responsible for the virus China advantage.
        Add in some Mo Strong Greening and by the time Junior is done, he’ll be inviting the Aga Khan to his island.
        And forgetting his villa in France.

        A real scandal.
        Oh for a real Media.

  7. Every Pump Mill is the only source of their Brand…. K10 is theirs.. They are ramping up production….Little Allan S maybe another Russian Bot who thought it found leverage….

  8. And now CNN this morning. Your must trusted source for bullshit. Main story is that Trump won’t wear a mask. Trump is worse than Hitler. Heartwarming story of China remembering the handful of people that died there because of the Trump virus. China is wonderful. Story on how Trump and evil right wing broadcasters like Fox are spreading false information about leftists and China. Story that the virus may have been in us for years. Nothing to do with China.

    1. Well, if he did wear a mask, someone would complain that he is protecting himself at the expense of health care workers.

      1. This means arresting and hanging the current head honcho for treason and fraud. Never gonna happen as people are too sheeple.

    1. Absolutely. That is shocking and immoral. Putting the lid on top salaries when companies get government handouts is a very good idea, a way to start scaling back on abusive salaries.

      1. No it isn’t. That’s just more micromanaging of the economy. Two wrongs do not make a right.

  9. “No American is going to say, ‘accelerate the economy at the cost of human life.’ Because no American is going to say how much a life is worth,” Andrew Cuomo

    Mr Cuomo is wrong.

    Consider for a moment that doctors and nurses get paid to save lives. Now would you, good reader, spend $ 1 trillion to save one life?

    Politicians get paid to make exactly that decision. How much to spend vs how many lives saved, or hurt. Before we scream at each other let’s admit it can be a very difficult decision. Spending money to save lives incurs costs: in dollars, in suffering, and even deaths in other areas.

    Now consider the “worst case” scenario of 100,000 deaths over two years. How many people die each year in Ontario? For the last three years it has averaged 105,000 a year (Statistics Canada).

    Let’s look at COVID-19 deaths in Ontario (from April 2 health dept presentation): 53% of deaths are over 80 years in age; 89% are over 60 years in age.
    Now for 2018 Ontario deaths: 52% are over 80, and 81% are over 65.

    Unfortunately we don’t have (to my knowledge) the number of current deaths in Ontario, nor the age breakdown. This would be interesting to know.

    The COVID pandemic may last for months, or it may play out over two years, we don’t know. How much damage to our economy, and the resulting suffering that will inflict, are we willing to tolerate?

    Sooner or later we will have to get back to work. I think physical distancing coupled with wearing homemade masks would help many get back to work sooner. Yes, I know a homemade mask is only 50 to 70% effective, but I and most readers will not be working in high exposure area like a hospital.

    Masks, coupled with physical distancing, and limited outside travel for those 60 and older, could allow people to get back to work sooner while reducing economic damage.

    1. Your life will be very short and painful if you can’t get the necessities of life. If only the elite had to be the very first to suffer. I bet there would be no lock downs and life and death would proceed as usual.

  10. Another page in the “Bezos is a crooked scumbag” file:

    In the situation where shipping from some origins is severely restricted, Amazon, unlike honest and transparent Ebay, does not allow the buyer to see where the product ships from, in more than 50% cases, without having to contact the seller and hope that they truthfully represent the shipping origin.

    Amazon is now engaging in behind-the-scenes arbitration of who needs what, on the undisclosed criteria.

    They are lying about price-gouging, making it look like they are involved in combating it on their system, where in reality they intentionally mix overpriced (and irrelevant) items, sprinkling price-ordered searches with 10-20% of highly-overpriced items.

    Bezos must hang.

    1. When the chicoms are finished with Bezos that’s what they do with all the usefully naive.

      1. Thank you for helping to perpetuate the massive fraud that your beloved online giants commit.

        1. There is no ‘fraud’. They provide a beloved service, losers like you moan and cry.

    1. Why shouldn’t Canadian nurses work in Michigan? Are they your slaves? What about the thousands of Canadian nurses who have to go and work in the US because they can’t get work in Canada? Should they be unemployed? Should they take crap jobs with crap pay and no job security when in the US they can get paid what they’re worth? My children will likely have to move to the US when this is over because it’s the only place they’ll be able to get decent jobs.

      1. Allan S equates Trump’s foolishness (or bad advice) with Trudeau’s malevolence and traitorous acts.

      2. Absolutely. Did he get any credit for letting those Canadian cruise ships land? Many Canadians are huge hypocrites. They take pleasure in sticking it to the US, and courting China (remember the steel fiasco where we were stamping Chinese steel as Canadian and refused to act until the Trump tariff?) – then feign outrage when the US takes measures to protect their own country. Even though we are so integrated economically, the current government thinks it’s ok to insult the US and its President. The performance of Trudeau snd Freeland during the trade talks was pathetic.

      3. It’s not the job of the USG to ‘take care of the country’. They are supposed to protect our rights.

    1. @ Allan S.
      So then there would be no masks made?
      Bad idea. Why are you still fixated on Trump? He is not our leader. Our leader is a failed, racist. You should focus your disdain on his ineptitude not the leader of another country.
      BTW what are your thoughts on the leaders of Italy and Spain? Why do you not protest the lying Chinese who created this mess?
      Why, even in a worldwide crisis, can’t progressive/socialist/communists such as yourself grow up.

      1. The answer. Lefties like Allan S. are hypocrites. They wrongly accuse others of doing what they do.

  11. Someone had just asked an important question: what if a COVID infected corpse gets into a water filtration plant?
    Canada is criminally negligent if it still has not posted the military at the strategic points, such as water filtration plants, power stations, cellular operators, and others that I should not name online to not give crooks and mentally unstable any ideas.
    But no, we are only blabbering about social justice. We as in elected and government officials.
    Ford spoke strongly against Trump’s order to not export masks… What has Ford DONE to alleviate the shortage of masks?
    C.A.N.A.D.A.: All hat, no cattle. All talk no deeds. I’ll watch it go down, with sarcasm and disdain on my face. Big talkers who scatter like roaches when something has to be done.

    1. Yes. The current government is busy printing money, but they seem to have no plans in place to effectively deal with the virus. Sending tons of medical supplies to China at such a time was sheer stupidity. I hope the US can save us.

      1. I hope that the US will be busy saving themselves, just to teach C.A.N.A.D.A. a lesson in self-sufficiency.
        Enough of development only in the 100km strip along the US border.
        Enough of compensating for domestic issues with immigration.
        Enough of squandering our surplus on hollow balloons in Africa.
        Enough of whining on the Internet while doing nothing.
        Enough of choking farmers with regulations made up in DT TO and Ottawa.
        Enough of unionizing, forcing into associations, and licensing every business initiative that does not need to be constrained.
        Enough of designing everything with the main goal of feeding an army of bureaucrats.
        Crickets!

      2. Our politishuns are covering their asses (deflecting on their own ineptitude) for sitting on their hands for 2 months, since January, dealing with whiny Paiutes and spewing the WHO talk that isn’t a pinch of Coon-crap: https://edmontonjournal.com/news/national/the-road-to-canadas-covid-19-outbreak-timeline-of-federal-government-failure-at-border-to-slow-the-virus/

        There are 2 more articles, I’ve posted them here for days. T. Tam used to work at WHO. The US..masks…Trump bad…masks…..Trump…..masks, masks, masks. Repeat often. Maybe you’ll start to believe Kaneduh is “working for you”, while aircraft land every day from Chinah. Used to be Iran too, but I think all those Kanedians of COVID…I mean convenience are home, now. Lucky us.

  12. Its a good thing Great Leader is hard at work in his bunker. True North reports that feminist Blackie paid 70 thousand dollars for a poll on gender equity. And Furey at True North writes about Trudeau’s experts.

  13. Fox News reports that China has been appointed to the UN Human Rights Council. It makes sense since they already control the UN World Health Organization.

  14. Just listened to Li’l Tater Head in the morning monologue. Canada has acquired warehouse space in China to amass the required PPE, that China manufactures, that we will require and has chartered aircraft to bring said PPE back to Canada. This is how F*CKING brilliant the Liberal Party is. We will be expending more Canadian tax dollars to ship in equipment that Europe has already returned because it was defective. I thought that when the Liberal government sent our troops to Afghanistan in green combat gear that they couldn’t get any dumber. Then the Liberal government bought used subs from Britain, well that had to be the epitome of stupid. But now we have reached the absolute pinnacle of stupidity for an elected government, perhaps actually it should be termed the abyss, since I don’t think they can do anything dumber than buying defective safety equipment from the other side of the world from the same country that evidently started this, in a period of uncertainty like this. Why are we not gearing up our manufacturing sector to produce our own protective gear? Oh!!! I forgot we exported all of our manufacturing ability by implementing restrictive regulations and restrictions, gutting our energy sector, increasing costs on power and energy with a destructive tax, and limiting our ability to export what little was left. Now we go crying to America because we have brought this catastrophe on ourselves. Gimme a break!

    On another issue, the pulp that has been deemed so irreplaceable in producing the masks is a false flag. There is nothing special about the wood that is grown on Vancouver Island as opposed to wood that is grown in Washington state or Oregon. It will take the US very little time to convert and re-tool a pulp mill in Washington to produce the same fibre that Harmack produces.

    1. Thanks. Couldn’t have said it better.
      About trees: we got lots. We get no credit on the Globble Warmenting File for the “natural” carbon sequestering.
      Canadians are STUPID.

  15. The latest from the Government of Canada is that we will take no retaliatory measure against America regarding the 3M situation. Puh-lease, retaliatory action from Canada? This has to be the biggest self-congratulatory con job in Canadian history. Some magnanimous piece of moral superiority!!!! We go sniffing and simpering and begging to China. In the next breathe we pretend that we are in the stronger position when dealing with America and will take no retaliatory measures.

    “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad.”

  16. Here, some news from Wuhan: https://www.rfa.org/english/news/china/wuhan-financial-04032020152443.html
    Got it from the cat blog: http://www.blazingcatfur.ca
    We’re not even over the hump yet. Something to look forward to, say July? August? You’ll get arrested for having a BBQ with friends, then stuffed in a gender friendly, social spacing jail. Wonder if you get extra time for standing while peeing?
    Control freaks gotta control freak. Expect this for what passes for “normal”….. forever. Game of shinny anyone, basket ball? Maybe tennis will make a comeback….singles only.
    We still have relations with Chiner?

    1. Well, unusually I agree with the Groggy Male. But they write it as a slight on Ford but the lack of care of the supplies happened when the glorious Liberals were in power.

  17. Here is a typically excellent article from Ron Bailey about research into the COVID fatality rates. Bottom line: bad but not as bad as feared.

    “The researchers’ low-end coronavirus attack rate—that is, the percentage of the population that would eventually be infected—is 50 percent. Assuming 50 percent of Americans were eventually infected, that would yield about 1.1 million deaths from COVID-19.”

    1. Well we don’t know that do we. How have we teted the population to say how many have the infection and survive? Just making wild arsed guesses is not helpful.

  18. Great Leader Typhoid Blackie announced today more money for Quebec, indians, and feminist issues as part of his war against the virus. We are so blessed!!

    1. Yes I had the same emotion on hearing the wonderopus news of impressive action from our Great Leader-in-Hiding.

    1. Well if they have the infection. However, we do not know how many people have the infection because we are not testing the bloody population. Effing government. It costs a fortuine and is worth nothing.

    2. Might just as well go out and do stuff you normally do then. Consider that you are already infected and possibly asymptomatic. Read a US posting the other day about a Doctor who had a few bad days with flu…..in January. Just got tested. Already had it and recovered. How many did he infect, starting with his family?
      Oh, but we can’t possibly shut the borders, at a minimum. Hell, the Chinah Folks got bent if you even suggested it….raaaaccciiisssst!
      I’ll just come right out and say it: it’s a bio-weapon, made in a Wuhan, Chinah laboratory. Xi Winnie Wuflu.

  19. Nothing brings out the true colors like a crisis: Alberta Premier Jason Kenney talking to Washington about tariffs on Saudi and Russian oil

    https://business.financialpost.com/news/alberta-premier-jason-kenney-talking-to-washington-about-slapping-tariffs-on-saudi-and-russian-oil#comments-area

    To be clear, the NDP never would even dream of going this far left. I’m glad that conservatives are destroying their credibility quickly though instead of dragging it out. This will also be used to shred any points about Alberta getting swindled by Canada. Now the province is just another hoser.

    1. I dunno, you can get into Rachel’s mind? I sure can’t. I do know she mused about cutting off BC if they interfered with TMX going ahead. John Boy almost had a cow. Then he went to court.

    2. The NDP would not go this far left?

      The NDP want to shut down the entire oil industry and replace it with high cost, unreliable, heavily subsidized wind and solar.

      1. Rachel never did any such thing in her time in power. She had lots of bad ideas but she was earnest in pursuing TMX.

  20. As for masks: It was reported that Trump would not ship masks to Canada when in fact what he did was stop masks being shipped from the US overseas to the highest bidder. He then restricted shipments to within the US, Canada and Mexico. You can read the order he was referring to in the tweet instead of getting fake news to interpret it for you. The fake news is still reporting today that masks are being held from Canada. I wouldn’t trust a word from TheeBeeThee, Globble, or LISAVIEW, nor should you. They’re still pimping for the WHO and not the band. Do some research.
    Navarro: “….there will still be some exports from the United States factories to our friends in Mexico and Canada, but as for the rest of 3M’s production around the world, we’re gonna try to get our fair share, we will get our fair share of that …”

  21. So let me get this straight. Blackie is buying tons of medical supplies from China, and even rents a warehouse there, and this is the country that is holding two Canadians hostage. Plus China has been accused of spying and organizing groups in Canada. Funny old country isn’t it.
