      1. Yes, I saw that. Trudooooo put on his face mask for the cameras, the little hypocrite!

  1. All is not well behind the scenes for Trudeau’s Liberal Cult. There is a quiet revolution of sexual harassment victims in his PMO threatening to explode onto the front pages. The Speaker of the House of Commons (a Liberal) has declared null and void dozens of secret amendments to Bill C-10 (the Internet Censorship Bill). And this week, severe and surprising criticism of the Liberal record was published (you’ll never guess who wrote it)……..

    “The border closure with the U.S. makes no sense. Canada cannot be like Cuba despite some affinities in our leadership for that country….The U.S. success at developing vaccines should also be an amazing endorsement of the private sector…It seems our government only feels comfortable highlighting the private sector for its shortcomings and dividing Canadians. The fact that our government cannot seem to comprehend the effectiveness of the private sector is a real issue that will hurt all Canadian citizens in the long run.”
    —- Paul Desmarais III, CEO of Sagard Holdings Division, Power Corporation of Canada

    The DAY AFTER these words were published, the federal government loosened travel restrictions, saying that fully vaccinated Canadians returning from the U.S. by plane could skip the quarantine hotels and wait for the results of COVID-19 tests at home.

    1. And the Laurentian elite couldn’t get a private word with their political puppet, Trudeau, so they unveiled their agenda in a public newspaper for all of us to read. They are concerned about their million dollar losses, but don’t care about the overall economy. They are concerned that their Pharma investments aren’t doing as well as possible because the Spawn and Tam haven’t looked after forcing injections into all of us. They are concerned about the lack of border crossings because it is making it difficult to transport goods in a timely fashion and the supply chain is starting to suffer, hence more losses for them.

      They don’t give a damn about their fellow citizens and the damage their puppet regime inflicts – only when it touches their holdings. I have no sympathy for them, whatsoever. Serves them right.

    2. A ‘public’ statement from Paul Desmarais III, CEO of Sagard Holdings Division, Power Corporation of Canada? Shocking! Thought they had a direct line to Ottawa. Right, that was under Jean Chretien. Is Trudooo not returning calls fast enough?

    1. The goo is creating zombies. The goo settles in all organs in the body including the brain.

  2. Good German word: Fremdschämen — feeling shame for someone too dumb to feel it for themself. Vicarious embarassment.

  3. L – Prof. Salim Mansur, Political Science Professor Emeritus opines on the political arrest of
    a federal political leader in Canada, for exercising his Constitutional Rights e.i. Peaceful Assembly, Association, Charter Mobility Rights, which as the leader of a federal political party logically includes: 2. b) to pursue the gaining of a livelihood in in any province.

    I would add being that he is a leader of a federal political party, the citizenry have a Right to an opportunity to meet him personally and hear him and ask him questions. This especially so, when a federal election looms somewhere on the horizon. A federal party leader political duty is to work and meet with citizens across the country and in every province. The attempt to ban him from a province(Manitoba) is a Prima Facie Charter violation of a Constitutional Monarchical system of government. Full Stop.

    Oddly, the other political leaders don’t defend the Constitutional Rights of a colleague. Is this because they’ve abandoned their oath to the Canadian Constitution. Trudeau is on record
    saying that about Covid-19 regulations. My take on it.

    Prof. Salim Mansur in conversation with Mark Friesen, who does find time to stop in Saskatoon between cross Canada (Charter of Rights &) Freedom rallies.

    1. Great story. I had one Dodge in my life, never again, not Dodge, not another Chrysler product.

      1. I had two, never again. It has been a long time and one hell of a lot of cars and vans since I said never again.

      2. Me too. It’s the only brand of vehicle I have walked away from. I still own the van and it’s in decent shape after more than a decade of use, but after about a year of all kinds of crap I haven’t taken it to the dealership since.

      3. My father drove usually drove Chrysler-made trucks. He started with the old Fargo Transiline van, which was Chrysler’s answer to Ford’s Econoline, in the mid-1960s. It was a garage queen and he drove it for about half a dozen years.

        However, he gave it another chance when he replaced it with a Dodge Tradesman (the Fargo line having been retired by then, as I remember). In the early 1980s, he got himself a Toyota Land Cruiser because he wanted a 4 x 4 and I don’t think Dodge had one that was a diesel. Nearly 30 years ago, he traded it in on an early model TurboRam and drove that until 2013.

        He liked that model so much that he got himself a newer version. That’s the truck I inherited and am driving now. It’s not a bad vehicle, though I find all the electronic doodaddery on it to be rather irritating and frustrating, particularly when there’s a “Check Engine” warning light with no message.

      4. I did pretty good on Dodge (2 1500 P/U’s) until the front left wheel collapsed on a corner on one. Very low speed, or I’d be talking to you from the dirt. Went F-150 after that one. Got 15 years out of it, than sold it to a plumber. Still going.

        1. F-150s last forever. I have put millions of kms on them and never had a driveline failure other than a few clutches. I have a 92? with 350,000 km parked. It still runs. I’d give it to somebody but no-one wants it. it’s suffering for a lot of Ford cancer. The one I’m driving right now has a V6 piece of shit engine that gulps oil. Maybe I should take the old 300 cubic inch out of the 92. It likely has another 350,000 km in it.

        2. Dodge..?? Cheap junk period.
          Had an 05 Dakota – worst Fuel mileage I’ve ever seen in a relatively Light vehicle
          16mpg and that was after 75,000 km’s…!! Brakes needed a complete overhaul at 18,000 kms. Unreal GARBAGE.

          The interior was CRAP…look sideways and its dirty.
          NEVER Again.

          Bought my 06 d’Max in Feb 07 – 596,680 kms later…?? Happy as a pig in shit..!!
          20mpgs at 120kmh. 1840rpm. Orig injectors.

          GM rules – PERIOD

      5. I’ve had two Dodge vehicles and one Jeep ( ’96 Stratus, ’95 Cherokee, ’96 Dakota,) all bought used, without warranty, showing overall good to better-than-average signs of care and maintenance by previous owners. They rangedfrom 6 to over 20 years old when I bought them. Of course they have needed some repairs, but they have all given me satisfactory service for what they cost to buy, use, maintain and repair.

        I have never owned a new car/truck/bike and will try to stick to older vehicles the rest of my life, but since most people are suckers for distracting gadgetry in their cars it’s going to get harder to find things worth driving.

        (The Dakota is the one that was over 20 years old when I bought it and it serves me well. That Cherokee would probably still be going strong if it hadn’t been wrecked by a young lady who pulled out from roadside parking to merge with it between the passenger side doors.)

    2. Haha! I like his Mum’s use of vinegar! I use it for a million things too!

      P.S.
      A chick’s POV!

    3. Back in the day, when Shell Canada was giving out how-to booklets (we’ve a few of them), they had a lovely ad on what do do when the fan belt broke. I did say this was back in the day. Anyway, the ad featured the woman ?passenger heading out into the bush and coming back twirling her pantyhose rather seductively. Apparently pantyhose (or nylons) made a decent emergency substitution for the fan belt until one could get to a proper garage. Who knew?

      This has stood out in my mind as one of the best ads ever.

  4. Blackie’s Globe and Mail reports on the speeches in Parliament by retiring MP’s. As the MP’s get ready to enjoy their pensions for life, they gave speeches on how Canada is a racist failure.

  5. Blacklock reports that legislation has been introduced by Adolf the Queer Fascist, that private sector employers must be able to speak French.

    1. That makes about as much sense as what happened with John Turnip (deliberate nickname on my part). Someone in the Yukon disputed a traffic ticket and insisted on having the court proceedings to be conducted in French.

      Turnip, being true to my invented nickname, decided that the Yukon had to be officially bilingual. A few months later, he was given the heave-ho by the Mulruin Conservatives.

    2. The FEDS can Mange la merde…with their french BS.

      But keep it up Assholes….!! more ammo for Maverick and Wild Rose.

      1. Yes! It’s an Anglo world. Just look how the English language united India. Yet, they still managed to keep their various dialects alive in that Country.

        What the heck is Ottawa continuously freaking out about? A job for M.P. Melanie Joly or any Heritage Minister? Meanwhile they are the ones who keep the Immigration Department alive and well. Then they worry about the French language? What fools.

        Besides, they speak slang in P.Q. There they say ‘marde’ instead of “merde”. There’s many examples but let’s just fuggetaboutit!

        1. Besides, they speak slang in P.Q.

          And then there’s the franglais. I was reminded of that during my last trip to Montreal more than 30 years ago.

          We were staying at, I think, a Holiday Inn in Dorval and we gathered for breakfast the morning after we arrived. I ordered scrambled eggs and the waiter, who couldn’t understand my mutated French, asked me if I also wanted “le bacon”. That kind of threw me and I had no proper response en français.

          Note: it’s not a good idea to practice one’s (likely rusty) high school French in a cafe when it’s a busy morning.

          1. “Franglais.” It’s the perfect word for the amalgamation of the “Two Solitudes.” (Remember that book?) The City of Montreal is all that and more, and bilingual, as you well know.

            When I lived there, most of the time I spoke English if I was downtown or the West part of the City and French everywhere else. What normally happens is that people tend to feel each other out to see who speaks what, then similarly, who speaks which language better. Sometimes a happy medium is met where each person speaks whichever language they are most comfortable with. Inevitably, though, things do get lost in translation. When it came time for really critical stuff, people usually dealt with someone who spoke their own mother tongue, like with the professionals, such as doctors, dentists, lawyers etc. No problem finding them there.

            Personally, as I indicated in another thread, I’m glad to be gone from P.Q. The Politics there tends to drive one up the wall.

            An example of that, was when poor Ezra Levant and his crew got caught up with the thugs at the Port of Montreal earlier this year.

            As a result of all the new immigration to Canada, I’m thinking that Justin Trudeau wants to follow in PET’s footsteps to insure that it’s clear that French will always be taught in Quebec schools first. If English schools were squeezed out in favor of, say, Mandarin ones, it would, perhaps, be more to their liking in order to pay their due respects to China. They owe a lot of gratitude to that Country because China has made them filthy rich. Not us, of course, just the vendues, like the Politicians, especially the seemingly Liberal ones. It surely explains a lot, like why the Conservatives ones now act like the Liberals.

          2. When I was young “Let’s parler franglais” was a running series in the old English magazine Punch.

    3. Moses said to God One Day
      And It Was Plainly Heard
      I think I will make a Frenchman
      And I will make him from a TURD

  6. Appears Justin made a great impression on his G7 trip, showing off his bubbly personality topped of with his unruly curls.
    There was an official photo where all wearing masks, after that they seemed to disappear, chatting up close without them.
    Maybe many have had 2nd shots, Trudeau isn’t one of them.
    News is he and his entourage will be spending 2 or 3 days in a hotel….possibly the Chateau Laurier in Ottawa pending test results.

    1. His media made sure to mention it was a 3 star hotel.
      He’d be in a flophouse on his own dime.
      The man? has never taken a bite that wasn’t taxpayer subsidized.

  7. OJ:

    The story is at newswatch.
    90% of the links I try to post end up in the filter?

    The Quebec Community Groups Network, which serves as an umbrella organization for English-language groups across the province, called Bill C-32 “an attack on the equality” of both English and French as official languages in Canada.

    The group said the bill “territorializes language rights and extends language rights into the private sphere only for francophones. Such a significant shift will have profound effects for years to come on the official language rights of English-speaking Quebecers.”

  8. Good news, our pretty PM has tested negative and will self isolate in his bunker, Rideau Cottage, for 14 days.
    His family will be missing him.

    1. “His family will be missing him.”

      I’m sure Sophie has no joy being married to a gay guy. I wonder how much she is paid to be his beard?

      1. An 8-million dollar “cottage” makes a nice down payment for that service.

        And Maggie didn’t do too badly, either, considering that she had a comparable job.

    2. Liz J, “His family will be missing him.” Well that good, cuz none of us will. What we’re missing is truth, honesty, and good government. His family will get what they want, we will not!

  9. The Libranos’ internet censorship bill (Bill C-10), which was amended in secret by the Dear Leader’s stooges in a parliamentary committee, has had those secret amendments stripped from the Bill by the Speaker of the House. No doubt the Dear Leader will be enraged that the Speaker, himself a Liberal, dared to stand up for democracy.

    “The Liberal government’s push to speed controversial broadcasting bill C-10 through Parliament hit a road bump Tuesday, when the Speaker of the House voided dozens of amendments to the bill.

    The Heritage committee voted on those amendments last week, without debate or the ability to consult experts. The unusual process, in which the public wasn’t aware of what MPs were voting on until days later, was criticized as “secret” law-making by University of Ottawa law professor Michael Geist.”

    https://nationalpost.com/news/politics/bill-c-10-hits-speed-bump-as-speaker-voids-dozens-of-secret-amendments

    1. As this bill moves on to the Senate, we will see how independent those Liberal appointees really are. The idea of Secret amendments is just shocking. Harper would never have done something like this. Liberals are bent on destroying your democracy. I don’t think that’s an overstatement.

      1. Lindal – you can’t destroy something that doesn’t exist – only the illusion.

  10. I’m convinced there’s no shortage of basic commodities like water and fuel we are paying high prices and taxes for.
    There is also no shortage of stupidity among the electorate who repeatedly vote for stupidity.

  11. And now the two big stories at the Liberal Party’s CBC. Breaking report on women’s cosmetics. And Ford is Hitler because he is failing to vaccinate killers, rapists, and other criminals in jail. However Blackie is wonderful at vaccinating misunderstood people in prison. And of course the usual Canadians are racist bastards stories.

    1. Very shocking. Where is the media? Surely an excessive number of deaths from a new vaccine is newsworthy. I understand that there is an unspoken pact in the media not to present any information that might cause people to hesitate on the vaccines but if the vaccine is not totally safe, it is immoral not to inform people. It is also unconscionable that this risky, experimental vaccine is bring foisted on children and adolescents.

      1. If no one is being informed, how is it we know and are discussing it here? False narratives aren’t particularly moral either.

        1. We know, because many credible physicians and scientists have reported on the negative side effects and deaths associated with the vaccine. Their findings are not being reported by MSM which is where many people get their information. On what basis do you conclude that the stats cited in American Thinker constitute a false narrative?

  12. True North lists the extreme leftist views of the former Green MP who was stolen away by the Liberals.

    1. That’s awful. I took an art class from Hamid. He is a wonderful artist, and his paintings sell for a decent buck. He has had regular exhibits in Ottawa. I can’t believe it’s the same person.

      1. So don’t believe it, try to find out. Sudanese are not rare immigrants to Canada and neither “Hamid” nor “Ayoub” (or spelled Ayub) are uncommon names in that region.

    1. Sounds like Bill Clinton’s $500,000 speaking fees. Bribes by any other name. I suspect a lot of Biden’s paintings will end up in China.

      1. I doubt the buyer will bother to take possession, never mind ship them home to China.

  13. L – File under it’s probably nothing.

    Is a Panic-demic leading to a Scam-demic a coincidence or blatant opportunism of ineptness ?

    Can intelligence agencies answer who and were and provide an attitude adjustment or not ?
    Given this counts as a national security issue in a functional nation-state.

    The Ruthless Hackers Behind Ransomware Attacks on U.S. Hospitals: ‘They Do Not Care’
    https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-ruthless-cyber-gang-behind-the-hospital-ransomware-crisis-11623340215

    1. Never mind the dingbats name,what is this crap,fines you cannot challenge before the law?
      I see some reference to a Supreme Court Challenge,yet I have never heard of this extra legal system of theft and abuse.
      Are these City councils who use such things insane?

      For if you really wanted to incite the likes of Killdozer Guy,this is a guaranteed way to go about it.
      Hell I thought it was bad when I learned we have zero legal defence against Fines imposed by Federal Fisheries Thugs..So now that cancer has spread?
      Where the asshole that writes you a citation is Judge Jury and Collector..
      Can Ahh Duh is done.
      I did not leave Canada,it left me as it turned into a lawless shithole.
      And I mean lawless,for when you have so many laws,rules and regulations that one one is responsible,you have no law at all.

  14. why are the so called leaders of the USA and Canada so eager to disgard our history and heritage to appease a a very small minority, what is the upside and what will be the long term result.

  15. Political shows on Blackie’s CBC and Blackie’s CTV are outraged that the leader of the Green Party is stating that feminist Trudeau is partly to blame for the troubles in the party right now. And she had the nerve to say feminist Trudeau isn’t a feminist.

  16. “They Are Doing It For The Kids Story”. Teachers union in diverse leftist Toronto is forbidding its members to participate in year end school activities for the students. Story at the Toronto Sun.

  17. Turns out the vaccine passport the fascists and Karen’s are cheering on aren’t so great. For example if you got AstraZeneca it’s not recognized in the US. You also can’t skip hotel quarantine here unless you have a Canadian approved vaxx. What now libtards?

    1. “What now?”

      Maybe a yellow cloth patch, specially-embroidered with our vaccination history, sewn onto our clothing that permits us to walk around in public.
