  1. Not a tip, but a query. Anyone have a suggestion for blogs or websites that deal with day-to-day changes in how Canada Customs and Immigration is handling Canadian citizen travelers returning by road from the USA? Tips on what to say or not say, best time of day to show up at the border, crossing sites to avoid or choose, that sort of thing?

  2. Try this.

    What you shouldn’t say at Canada Customs.

    We went to Billings, Montana to buy a used pistol, and when we went to try it out at the local shooting range, we started coughing………….

    Just kidding…

  3. Haha! As a matter of fact, I did buy a used pistol. Used by a Wehrmacht officer, and subsequently by an American serviceman who captured it. But I am not so foolish as to try to bring that, or any other firearm, across the border. It stays down here.

    I am aware of the GC site. That’s what THEY want of me. I want to know, as a practical matter, what I can get by with. The 72-hour testing protocol is problematic, as it takes a day or more to get a result, and it takes all of two days to drive from central Arizona to Sweetgrass. And, since they apparently demand I get tested again AT the border, what is the point? And I am going to have to import the vehicle, too.

    1. we’re in the same quandary in Florida….get tested…then head north hopefully receiving
      our test results on route. We’ve both vaccinated but still have to arrive at the border with a negative test…take another test at the border and then lockdown at home for another 14 days, submitting an additional self test 10 days in to that.
      In other words….they don’t recognize a fully vaccinated person….and the point is?

    2. I remember as a kid, a lot of guys from this area went down South for the winter wheat harvest. In the 60’s, a lot pistols came across inside John Deere 95s and Massey 510s. The custom officers would ask them to start the engine and run the threshing mill, for weed control and to make sure the mill was clean. But the harvesters were smart enough to tape them to a shaft or an auger inside a tube. Today, they’d most likely seize the combine and the trailer. Not a profitable cargo to sneak across!!

      Good Luck.

    1. Ya right!! High speed rail between Montreal and Toronto, and abandoned CN-CP right of ways for the prairies.

      They get the grain, we get the chaff.

      1. Is there anywhere in the world that has temperature changes of 60 degrees centigrade from season to season and where there is also a truly functioning high speed rail system?

    1. Is global warming a scam? Yesterday, today and tomorrow as is the whu who flu.

    2. Grand Solar Minimum.
      We are starting to come out of the galactic clouds that shielded us from certain types of radiation in our galaxy , add that to the above.
      And that Evil basturdo Gates wants to cool the Earth even more.

      I wonder if anybody is building Snowpiercer yet ?

  4. The big news this morning in the bought and paid for media, is that the Liberal Party’s top doctors in Ontario are demanding stay at home orders. Everyone must stay in their homes because the nice weather is here, and people may go out and enjoy it. And for God’s sake we need to protect the teachers. Thousands of teachers will die because of Doug Ford. Only Blackie can save us. Hopefully he is back from his “long weekend”. PRAISE GREAT LEADER!

    1. John,
      You need to pop a couple of doobies man.
      The Mainstream Media is wearing on ya…
      Day after day, month after month, the same shit different day.
      Step away from that Television is rotting you brain like eggs on a grill.
      Just sizzling that grey matter to a pile of useless shit…sheep…
      Shut your brain down my sheep…

    2. John, forget Jojo’s mean-spirited comments. We love your daily summaries, since we rarely get to read and watch the cartel media.

      1. I apologize John if I offended you.
        Just meant to be taken as good fun jousting.

        1. I’m an old retired infantry officer. The only way you can upset me, is if you call me a Liberal.

  5. Blacklock’s Reporter brings us the news that Blackie’s public works dept. has found a 28 million dollar surprise for the Senate. Urgent repairs are needed on a government building in Ottawa that they have owned for decades. Senate finance committee is becoming worried about the escalating costs of renovations in Ottawa.

  6. Dog lover Murrell here. FOX News reports on Joe Biden’s dog Major, and that his wounding of two White House staff might be due to the “tension” at the White House, and that the German shepherd might not be acclimated at the busy place as yet:
    https://www.foxnews.com/politics/biden-wh-tension-to-blame-for-major-getting-agitated-dog-expert-says

    White House spokesmen say that the two dog bites are minor, albeit that both required medical attention. (Tell that two the two schmucks on the receiving end of the bites).

    1. I think Joe Biden is wandering around the halls of the white house biting people. They are blaming the dog.

  7. Right now, I’m looking out my living room window towards the high-rise on the other side of the courtyard of our apartment complex. On its roof are two Canada geese, probably the same pair that’s been hanging around our neighbourhood for the past few years.

    The sun’s shining and they’re looking out over their realm, quite pleased with their circumstances. It’s quite a sight to see two geese sitting on top of a building, strutting back and forth, and honking.

    Talk about free entertainment…..

    1. My geese are getting cheeky. I heard them honking a few minutes ago and, after stepping out on my balcony and taking a look, I saw them walking through the courtyard, completely unafraid, as if they owned the place.

  8. Headlines this AM. More “we can’t tell you the details”. https://calgarysun.com/news/local-news/variant-outbreak-declared-at-calgary-workplace-as-alberta-reports-432-new-variant-cases/wcm/8a4dad74-6cf1-4e70-afa5-8012dd169777
    When I read: “Dr. Deena Hinshaw, Alberta’s chief medical officer of health, did not disclose the location of the local workplace outbreak Monday but said it had been linked to five cases of COVID-19, including one confirmed case of the highly contagious P.1 strain. This is one of two concerning outbreaks of the P.1 variant reported by Hinshaw.”

    More Policized double speak? So I did a little spade work. PTW Energy Services is familiar to me, at least to anyone in The Patch. It’s a “private” company. They supply camps and camp services to the drilling industry, cooks, cleaners, low paid workers compared to a drilling crew et al. Yeah, we’re still drilling out here, 1980’s levels. A “local workplace” is doublespeak for “we know where it is, but you don’t need to”…. a drilling operation most likely, with a work camp to isolate the drill crew at. Usually they bunk and eat at the local motels, but they probably are off limits. The “infectee” traveled out of Canader and returned with a “Brazilian Tan”, variant P.1 from Brazil. No mention whether a 14 day quarantine had been followed, so suspect it wasn’t. They’re “special”, eh. Decide for yourselves. You of course travel out of the country and you get railroaded on COVID, tested or not. Calgary is an international entry point for “foreign travelers”. Why’s infectee out of the country in the first place? Homesick?
    “because employees travel between sites, the outbreak has spread to 26 staff and members of their households. ” He drives a grocery truck and replacement staff between PTW Energy camps, most likely. It’s a big crew cab, 10 ton truck. Who the 26 staff and house holds are not expanded on, but they are probably just collateral damage at this point, some who had the misfortune to spend an hour or two, or longer with Brazil Guy, in the truck. Ker-choo. Now it’s out and nobody knows who these people have been in contact with. Total shit show! It’s going on all across this country, by the way. Media is mute. Bought off.

    You want to get a handle on this crap and it is now beyond crapola, lynch some people. Start with some politicized twits who are stringing us along for the last year and a half. Some corporate operations need to be shuttered and fined…..a lot. Heads should be rolling, especially gubmint at all levels and our old folks shizzoles, that have had a year or so to clean up their acts and haven’t.
    Start with CCP operatives and their clans and their political buddies. They need to be severely inconvenienced. They might take the hint and self export. Insult them to their faces. Send ’em home with a Canadian “variant”. The Trots. Why we continue to deal with them on any level today, is beyond me. I have no need for time expired crap from Chinah. Dump it in the harbor it lands at, like some folks did tea.
    It came from WUHAN, CHINA! Deal with it. It’s been 14 months and not a cruel word has been spoken.

      1. Yeah, I read that one about 5 minutes after I posted. You can be sure PTB will sweep it under the carpet. Varmints, varmints, everywhere varmints!

  9. All this Hyped up MADNESS of wiping and disinfecting every conceivable object or surface is in itself UTTER STUPIDITY…. goes compeltely against Common sense.

    We are setting ourselves up for a TRULY Malign virus or bacteria to propagate unmolested through the population. IDIOCY writ large IMO.

    The only time I wash my hands..?? is after I use a washroom. PERIOD.
    I don’t use sanitzer EVER.

    I Take 4000 mcg Vitamin D daily along with 1000 mcg Vitamin C w/Zinc and will let my 68 yr old Immune system do what it is DESIGNED to do.
    The rest is Media – Govt induced Utter Hysteria.

    …and yea, and theres no faux experimental garbage going into my system…over my dead body.

    1. WorstJet was notorious for issuing wipes to passengers as they boarded a plane. I didn’t bother wiping anything. Air Canada, on the other hand, didn’t bother at all.

      Weirdos, all of them.

    2. I think I will wait before getting the vaccine, about six years or so …
      “lockdowns, school closures etc. pressure the virus towards ongoing mutation as these measures merely extend the period of time that the pandemic will last … in the “exclusion criteria” for the trial, exclusion criteria included anyone with hypertension, asthma and diabetes, or those with a high BMI. Yet these are the very people for whom the vaccination should be used or who should be targeted! This means that data concerning safety and effectiveness of the vaccine are simply unknown for the population of people most at risk of dying from Covid-19!”

  10. Covid numbers in Toronto and Peel district in Ontario remain very high. The burning question,has any government official/expert connected it to the large numbers of residents travelling back and forth to their “homelands” ? Seems it’s been going on from the beginning of this nightmare as it was before.

    We just heard more breathless shit from our hairy PM, he’s taking such good care of us, vaccinating as many as possible as soon as possible. He’s still sucking a hind teet and has a way to go to catch up to other countries.

  11. Moar on that Alberta “outbreak”. https://calgarysun.com/news/local-news/p-1-variant-outbreak-linked-to-out-of-province-traveller-spread-in-three-worksites-hinshaw/wcm/c5d27ebb-31a1-4678-9003-c6ea49598e03
    Moar finger pointing and political grandstanding by the NDP and media it seems, a partisan Calgary SUN, judging by the wording such as “…dragging his feet”. Really, says WHO? Oh gosh, we’re gonna get moar NDP gubmink out of this, I’m sure. The “news” is coming fast and furious from a breathless, partisan press. Still waiting for the reason for that “out of Alberta” travel. Golf, sun, or aged Mum? Still no mention that WUHAN, CHINA is where this crap came from in the first place. Check https://flightaware.com/ that’s where the P.1 variants come from.
    I’m going for a nap.

  12. National Post reports on the true story of Ryerson, who is considered the father of education in Ontario. As we all know he has been accused of being a racist bastard by the media and politicians. However the truth is he started off at a reserve where he worked closely with Indian leaders. He even was given an Indian name. He then worked with chiefs to develop a day school system. He would have been shocked at the later abuses in the residential school system. But why destroy a good “progressive” narrative.

      the Romans ever done for us?

  13. Post Millennial reports on the candidate for president of the NDP stating that using the word terrorist is Imperialistic. Also the candidate wants a tougher stance against Israel.

  14. Oh Nooo! True North reports that Blackie and his family supported a white supremacist organization. A report is before the diverse Toronto School Board that the WE Charity reinforces white supremacy and isn’t anti-colonial enough.

  15. *
    tales from “the great reset”

    “Members of a far-left group, the Delhi-Dublin Anti-Colonial Solidarity Brigade
    are claiming to be responsible for a St. Patrick’s Day vandalism incident targeting
    McGill University’s Queen Victoria statue.”

    apparently ndp leader jagmeet singh was not available for comment.

  16. Watching Kenny, Shandro and our own “Bonnie Henry” “returning to step one of reopening” here in Alberta. ZTV News. 1715 hrs.

  17. Chris Sky is now on a no-fly list because he’s, apparently, a terrorist:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtXe4l8lFLQ

    Poor little Omar, a convicted criminal and who actually committed acts of terrorism, isn’t.

    Prinz Dummkopf is getting his beloved “basic dictatorship”, but it’s not turning the economy around on a dime, now is it?

    1. Chris Sky being placed on a no-fly list having committed no crime is positively illegal. This wrongful act needs to be challenged and corrected forthwith with an apology issued. This hit piece shows how devious our communist wasteland is. I’m so disgusted.
      This is an unbelievably horrendous act by the Federal Government.

      1. Air Can’tada now includes as part of in-flight announcements the warning that “failure to comply” with mask regulations (whatever that means) can result in the offender being met at the destination by police and being subject to “financial penalties” (too cowardly to call them fines), and that person’s name being forwarded to Transport Canada.

        I’m sure a lot of it is due to certain parties acting on their attitudes now that the government has let them off their leashes.

        1. There’s a contest in the U.S. for a new and better mask design. Prize is 500k. Imagine that. This hoax is never going away.
