Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

COVID has been the best excuse to ignore the little brats and a whole lot of other people as well!
These people are all fucking NUTS. I found this really shocking, as the only thing that isn’t back to normal where I live (Midwest) is doctors offices and outpatient hospital services requiring masks or face shields.
Happily, we live in a neighborhood of normal functioning adults, so Halloween is still on. Last year we moved to a “help yourself” end-of-driveway table approach and everyone loved how it upped the socializing for the parents, so we are doing it again this year. Last year it included punch bowl pumpkins filled with wine for the mommies. See, normal functioning adults.
Re: the mom in the Let’s have a look link.
These people are not going to survive.
God, I HOPE these people do not survive!
Is the story true or a joke? Anyway, the kid was still sane, had the friend over and shared a snack.
When that kid is 17 she is going to be so up in her parents grill! I hope we hear from the panty wetter and his wife for an update.
Best rebellion to those parents would be? Devoutly religious? Trump t-shirts and a MAGA hat? Starting a Turning Point USA chapter at her university?
Handed it out last year, will this year. Samhain American style lives on our neighbourhood. 🙂
The kids are fine. The parent and the commentator are crazed.
The stores are expecting people to hand out candy. They have still have dozens of pallets 4 days out. It is holding up them putting Christmas stuff out.
The parent is going to pay for this attitude when the kid picks her old-folks home. “Remember 2021? You get the CHEAP home, Mom.”
The ILs are unsure about handing out candy anymore.
The natives load their cars and dump the kids in their neighbourhood. They’re tired of it
Clearly they did not poll my neighbourhood. Thank the Gods we have a solid record number of decorated houses this year.
When I was a kid my parents had to check my candy for drugs and sewing needles imbedded in chocolate bars. Life was so much less scary before Covid LOL.
Handling candies in hysteric Canadian suburbs: high risk
Handling anything in any retail store on earth: low risk
Danger has been confirmed by main stream media.
Those choosing to not hand out candy this Hallowe’en due to covid fears are deranged …. and cheap.
We plan to continue the tradition as we have, without fail, for decades. Anyone fearful of contracting the deadly virus by flinging treats to kids standing at your door holding a bag have much bigger issues than covid.
Re: the letter to Slate from the pathetic mother who is training her child to be AFRAID … to be VERY AFRAID … as if she is living in some M. Night” Shyamalan film about DEAD PEOPLE:
The mom who lives at the end of our block (ironically, an emigre from New Zealand) … sent out an email blast to everyone on the block. The email was aimed at their children who were playing with her kids … outside … unmasked … and improperly distanced. This kook-mom droned-on in the email about how she is her corporate employer’s COVID Czar, and that she is “expert” in her knowledge, and that all the parents on the block should LISTEN to her. What happened? None of the other kids on the block are allowed to play with her children anymore. Now, they sit in their living room looking out on the street to the dozen of other kids playing and having fun.
My sister is one of those ding dong ladies. Not to the extreme as the corporate expert,(what level of smart are you to suggest distancing, hand sanitizing and mask wearing. Is that a special night class level of smart, or just memorizing the sign at the grocery store entrance smart?)
All three of my sister’s teens are fully vaxxed, yet the protocols are unabated. Her kids all got sick with a cold…her diagnosis, yet she let them continue all their normal routines without having them tested.
You can never figure people like that out.
Well, that is one CRAZY mother.
But, of course, we need to keep in mind that a crazy reader letter may be fake. However in these crazy covid times, it is more likely than ever before to be real.
I’m dressing up as a globalist “doctor” and am offering Clot Shots to any and all.
The Left should never have children.
“Reluctant to hand out Halloween candy due to pandemic”. AKA a convenient excuse to be cheap.
“her other parent…”
Okay that is further evidence liberals must no longer be allowed to procreate. The response to this brain dead liberal was even stupider.
Sounds to me, however, the daughter lucked out and picked up the intelligence gene from a distant ancestor.
I WISH kids would come around to our home. Between the no-streetlights on our road, looong very dark driveways, and Black bears, cougars (and Coyotes) potentially out for a stroll, not a lot of incentive for the Trick or Treaters.
Last year we decorated the house, bought the candy, lit the Jack’O Lantern and discovered the town had organized an invite only candy fest at the community hall. We had two kids show up.
This year my town has gone out of the way to divide itself into the vaxxed and unvaxxed. The community hall is abuzz with all kinds of activities, coffee for seniors, Christmas craft sessions, weekly dinners, each advertised with multiple signs everywhere say we the unvaxxed are unwelcome.
F8ck this town that I now hate. The last thing I am going to do is start handing out candy. Some parent is going to go into hysterics about their beloved child foolishly running to my house to take filthy unvaxxed candy. I am sparing the kids and me a scene.
My poor kids have to play soccer, have sleep-overs, spend time face-to-face with other humans, and even go to an actual school. But Halloween? No way! They could die! I plan to hide on my roof and snipe any child that dares enter my yard.
Destroy culture and destroy festivities.
That’s the communist way!
Live in a small prairie town, weather has been nice this week so expect lots of kids at the door and I won’t be wearing a mask. Numbers were down a little last year but as I recall it was a cold night. Halloween being Sunday this year I expect kids to be out by mid afternoon. We have to hang on to traditions and customs if we want to maintain our lives in this battle against the elites who want to see every from the past destroyed.
