      1. That linked article is some f*cked up sh*t. But considering the theatre we are seeing coming from the US (Trump show trial; false flag + mob mentality on Jan 6th; the fencing of the capitol + continued presence of troops; Marxist dialectic in the form of victims and oppressors; CENSORSHIP!!) and the reality of Canadian “lockdowns even after ‘vaccination'”; useless masks mandates; COVID prisons (+ many other “Easter eggs”), I am very much leaning to the line of thought presented on this Zero Hedge essay. And I say this with a heavy, heavy, heart.

    1. “ Israel steps up to literally heal the world.“ I’m not of Jewish heritage, but you are right; and Israelies bring aid gladly and with humility.

    MindGeek is one of the very exclusive club of legal Quebec businesses of any size that do not have to be kept on life support with Alberta oil money.

    Kiddie porn is what allows MindGeek to actually pay investors a good return on their money, well into double digits.

    MindGeek is also not owned either by the Montreal mafia or by a Chinese Communist Party front—yet.

    Which is why Ottawa is suddenly very interested in finding reasons to serve Beijing MindGeek on a silver platter, so Beijing can bankroll the next genetically engineered plague with money donated by perverts everywhere.

    Everywhere, that is, but the People’s Republic of China, where the pornography and Islam problems are actually taken seriously and steps taken to contain them.

    1. Of course, in the PRC and the other peacefully-religious -governed part of the world, kiddie porn enforcement only applies to the governed, and in any case the governors have free access to expendable children for the actual ‘experience’.

      And I’d imagine likewise for at least one G-something country… 🙁

    1. Skimmed that delightful piece of propaganda.
      Pretty sick.
      A bunch of self serving tripe,perfect for this International Year of Lying.
      Next they will openly admit,”Yes we cheated,we had to, cause Orange Man bad.
      Because that was the trend I gleaned from my skim read.
      Of course they describe it as “Protecting the vote and saving democracy”.
      Just like their “mostly Peaceful Riots”..I mean protests.

  2. Digging for Britain is a good archaeological series, featuring several Roman digs and some specialist all-Roman-Britain episodes too.
    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1715425/

    It looks like episodes are online too. Maybe there are episodes accessible online at TVO for Canadian-based ISPs?? Although I didn’t check.

    1. One of the best photos taken during Apollo, alongside the Apollo 8 earthrise, and the full earth view from Apollo 17

      Here’s what Ed Mitchell saw before the Lunar Module Antares before it lifted off:

      https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap210204.html

      If you can look carefully, you can find evidence of what the mission is perhaps best known for, aside from the first American in space finally making it to the moon.

      The landing, however, didn’t go smoothly. There were problems with the LM’s guidance computer and the landing radar:

      https://hackaday.com/2017/09/21/the-longest-tech-support-call-apollo-14-computer-hack/

      Al Shepard was concerned that, when the LM was turned for the final phase of the landing sequence, he and Mitchell would be at the wrong altitude.

      What made things even more interesting was that the MIT team which wrote the program for the computer had less than an hour to come up with a workaround as Antares had one lunar orbit before the descent engine was ignited.

      That was portrayed in the episode Miles and Miles of the HBO mini-series From the Earth to the Moon.

      1. Those are truly terrific photos for black and white. They were never seen up close prior to that time yet they look familiar. The great digital cameras of today zoom in so nicely. (Looks like my street in winter after a snowfall– they don’t plow around here. I spent part of the day yesterday shoveling the street! I need a snow ‘sculptor’ to shape the ‘coffins’ into sitting ‘lions’– what a grand entrance into the driveway they would make, on this crescent of a crescent street!!)

        I remember following those missions as many did and we had many links in the past here on this site. Those were great. This wonderful topic seems to be pushed back even more now with all the latest news, unfortunately. Now its CCP whoo hoo floo, the Commies, the Globalists, worries about rights being taken away and the great fear of food shortages! Those halicon days of the 60s, 70s, and so on were so sweet by comparison.

        Enjoyed the new link as to how the programmers at NASA, back in the day, saved the day, saved the Apollo Mission and saved big bucks. (and saved face!) They were geniuses! More importantly, they had nerves of steel, like a surgeon!

        P.S. Liked the guy’s model space ship in the video. One could buy those in kits at the Kennedy Space Centre aka Spaceport to build. Hobbyists gobbled them up like hot wheels… or somethin’.

        1. One thing that needs to be kept in mind was that each Apollo spacecraft was custom-built in accordance with what its mission was going to be. Much of them were, in fact, built by hand.

          The problems with the Antares guidance computer were attributed, in part, to a suspected stray ball of solder. Mitchell tapped the keyboard with a flashlight and it cleared up the display. In addition, if I recall correctly, the memory was hard-wired, so it’s possible that there may have been a fault there.

          The stories of the astronauts and their exploits are well-known, but, like, I believe, Neil Armstrong said during the return trip of Apollo 11, they were only a small segment of the entire undertaking. Space buffs also enjoy hearing from and about the people in the background, such as those who designed and built the TV cameras that were used or the ground station personnel who operated and maintained the receivers for the signals that were transmitted from the moon. (Look up Honeysuckle Creek or Tinbinbilla.)

          To use a popular phrase, it’s all good.

          Further to my Hackaday link, there are several articles on that site by people who either rehabilitated leftover Apollo hardware or who built working replicas of it.

          1. Good info.
            I shall have to check that site, thanks.

            P.S.
            “Star Trek” (2009 version) flick is on tonight on the
            AMC Channel at 8:30 – 11:30 MT

            I’ve set it to record, there’s likely a hundred commercials. Featured are Leonard Nimoy, Eric Bana, Bruce Greenwood, Zoe Saldana… never heard of the others.

          2. I watched it a while ago. I wasn’t impressed, but that’s only my opinion.

  3. This Fraser Report contains a graphic of the debt load of each of the provinces.

    https://www.fraserinstitute.org/studies/growing-debt-burden-for-canadians-2021

    Notice that the eastern side of the nation is all over 100%.
    BC, AB, Sask are well under and MB is at 99%, very close the Dark Side.

    This is Bull Spit.
    If the east wants a Liberal hardcore COMMUNIST butthead regime ruining their lives, that’s fine with me.

    But they have no right to keep mucking up the lives of western Canadians with their stupidity.
    This debt load is going to have serious consequences down the road, and sooner than people expect. This will be where the western rubber finally hits the road.
    Our kids do not need to be punished by paying huge taxes for ignorant and irresponsible voters elsewhere.

    And it’s about time.

    1. Thank you for posting – I understand that Newfoundland/Labrador and New Brunswick are close to declaring bankruptcy and want the federal government to bail them out (I bet that Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island are about to be in the same boat as well). And this is with equalization payments!
      When will Alberta and Saskatchewan wake up and “smell the coffee”. Time to go Galt on Canada.

      1. Is it happening(provincial bankruptcy), because of the limitations our own Federal gov’t has put on the resource industries, particularly energy, with the consequences being reduced transfers?
        Of course my question is rhetorical !

        1. Nononononononono! It’s because we rich Albertans are so miserly and won’t want to share our “wealth”. (Funny, I don’t recall any other parts of the country sharing theirs when Alberta fell on hard times 40 years ago.)

  4. Before Prime Minister Bozo The Clown leaves for his Harrington Lake winter palace for the weekend, he will be holding his usual presser. He will explain once again what a wonderful job he is doing, and blame Harper for any problems. He then joins his global warming scam minister to virtually explain to a high school class that we are all going to die from global warming, and only he can save us.

  5. The Globe and Mail this morning is saying that the Harris-Biden government will be following a US-first policy, as to the distribution of vaccines from its manufacturing plants. The article says that the US will only give the vaccines to Canada after all Americans get the shot.

    But not to worry. The Rt. Hon. Justin Trudeau phoned President Harris two days ago, so all will be well.

    1. On the upside, German electric vehicles are top performers, being French nuclear powered. Due to its heavy reliance on intermittent solar and wind, Germany must import costly short-term power from neighboring France to stabilize the grid. France generates 70% of its electricity from nuclear.

  6. Blacklock’s Reporter has the story on a corporate lawyer who spent years fighting against pay equity claims by underpaid women, has been made pay equity commissioner by Adolf. That is so “progressive”.

  7. SDA readers know already, but I wonder how many people in Ontario, Pennsylvania and Ohio know, let alone Michigan, know WTF is going on.
    https://financialpost.com/commodities/energy/suncor-imperial-scramble-to-make-contingency-plans-in-case-michigans-order-cuts-off-ontarios-oil-supply

    So in response to Gretchen the witch, some oil may be shipped instead of piped as well as coming from the east – Portland, Maine – via pipeline which might mean foreign oil.
    By the way, cutting off an energy supply can cause conflict, to put it mildly.

      1. Yup. Better to buy their oil from the Middle East than to get it cheaper and easier from western Canada. Let them redneck bastards starve, eh?

        There’s nothing like loyalty to one’s country, is there? And we derided Prinz Dummkopf for his “post-national state” and “no core identity” comments? It was there all along. He, by opening his big yap, only made it official.

  8. The left-wing sports commentators (e.g. ESPN, Sports Illustrated) have been opining about how evil Tampa Bay quarterback Tom Brady is. Not just Spygate and Deflategate, but by the fact that he has had MAGA paraphernalia and knows Donald Trump. This Super Bowl weekend, lots of $5,000-suits within the punditry community will be rooting for Kansas City.

    This Sunday evening my wife and I will be hosting dinner and Bible study with the TV turned off.

  9. Statistics Canada has just reported that our country has lost 200,000+ jobs (seasonally adjusted) in January. And the Globe and Mail has reported (see above) that the Harris-Biden administration will not be sending us any of the Biden Vaccines, deciding that the US will give all of its vaccines to Americans first. Sunny ways.

  10. Which “class” of Canadians is suffering in the WuFlu lock downs? Simple – all of the suffering is being experienced in the private sector. The data to prove this are produced every month by Statistics Canada, but are studiously avoided by the media. So here they are:

    > Last month (January), employment in the public sector was 1.7% higher than a year earlier. (link below)

    > By contrast, employment in the private sector was 5.7% lower, while the number of self-employed was 7.0% lower.

    Remember, all those public sector workers (over 20% of the work force) are voters. They will never let any politician be elected who promises to cut public sector jobs, salaries or benefits. So no surprise that you have not heard one elected politician say that governments need to tighten their belts while they are tightening the noose around the necks of ordinary Canadians.

  11. Looking at the graphs for Alberta hospitalizations things do look alarming, but I also note that things are on a down swing. Now can Kenney tell us if overall deaths in the Province were abnormal last year? In many places they are not., and the pattern of hospitalization is not unlike a bad flu season. A very big question, however is whether or not lockups prevent virus transmission, and there is no evidence that that is true. Sweden, for example, is looking pretty good these days and they have not gone with extreme lockups. Why is that?
    Perhaps the virus is not a conspiracy, but the lockups as a response are.

    This is long but well worth your time. The flower icon on the lower right of the vid allows you to SPEED UP the timing. Works beautifully to save time. International freedom activist Sasha Stone interviews 2 Canadians. Rocco Galati is a successful Constitutional lawyer suing the CBC. Ted Kunz in Vancouver has a son greatly damaged by a vaccine years ago and is up to date wrt Covid. They make a good case comparing all governments to organized crime associations. The elites are super wealthy, acting in concert with groups like the UN, WHO, CCP, Big Tech, media, Wall Street, international corporations, and bribed and blackmailed politicians everywhere. These 3 men speak up for individual sovereign rights and take actions which respect human dignity. Galati’s expertise is something Canadians can contribute to in order to win court challenges. Sasha Stone says Canada and Australia are the litmus test for the speed of the globalist agenda. I believe that the complacent character of the population makes us easy pickings. But we’re NICE. (unless you are expressing a conservative opinion and get thrown in the garbage by your friends for being a meanie.)

        1. I remember you said you didn’t ever see
          “The Sound Of Music”– but just some tid bit I read today was that Plummer did that whole movie totally drunk most of the time. I saw the movie, never detected it at all. I guess some hide it better than others.

  13. All together now “Liar, liar, pants on fire” ,when Cottage Dweller’s COVID vaccine procurement promises turn into lies.

  14. Mike Lindell has produced a movie called Absolute Proof. It is about the evidence he has found about Dominion voting machines.
    Its on a loop at OANN. Twitter has put a temporary ban on OANN in aniticipation of the video release.
    Because of the restriction across social media platforms including Vimeo Mike has it up on his website.

  15. Another great column by Rex Murphy in the National Post:

    “The country is in an economic coma. The House of Commons is a movie set. We are shamed in the international community. And the list goes on.”

    “One year into COVID our venerated House of Commons is a disembowelled, non-functioning, neglected wreck. The targeted disrespect of the absolute and central symbol and instrument of our democracy has no parallel. No “minority” government has ever operated with the smug insouciance and patented, virtue-perfumed arrogance towards the Commons as the Trudeau government. This is, when we step back, their biggest sin.”

    https://nationalpost.com/opinion/rex-murphy-this-is-the-worst-canadian-government-ever-can-there-be-any-question

    1. One of Rex’s best stories yet about how Adolf is running the worst government in Canadian history.

      1. The worst for Canada, but the best for Quebec. SNC never had it so good, eh?

  16. L- As a Canadian voter, I’m concerned for Election 2021, about a nearer, nefarious pathogen.
    Blackface widower spiders are arachnids that are known for the unique appearance of their
    hosiery and tendency to eat their female: mates, M.P.s, Govenor-Generals, economies…

    Pierre Polievre’s latest- “Canadians won’t get jobs until Trudeau loses his…”
    https://twitter.com/PierrePoilievre/status/1357766694907875329

    1. One joke that’s told about that song is that the last line of the refrain is often mis-heard, so some people think John Fogarty is singing “Theeeeeere’s a bathroom on the right.”

      Another song that is in the same category is Jimi Hendrix’s Purple Haze, in which part of its refrain is sometimes mis-heard as “‘Xcuse me, while I kiss this guy.”

      1. For some time, I thought that “Help Me Rhonda” by the Beach Boys began, “Well, since you put me down, there’s an owl pukin’ in my bed…”
