This evening we present the 1950 version of No Way Out.

Your best tips to get us out of the clown world we seem trapped in are much appreciated.

Bonus: I spoke with a friend today who flew into YVR (Vancouver)  late one evening recently.  She said it was dramatically understaffed and so getting from the plane to outside the airport took 2 hours. Just curious what your recent Canadian airport experiences have been like.

  1. Airport? Sorry. I’m an unvaccinated political prisoner on the no fly list.

    1. My apologies. Thr rules are different down here in the U.S. So in Canada, one still needs to be vaccinated to fly domestically? That’s insane!!!

    2. “Recent” airport Experience…Hmm let me see, 2018 returning to Calgary from Minneapolis…twas all good then..! Have no clue what YYC is like now…As I’m also a Pure Blood Political Prisoner.

      PM Dickspank is still waxing poetic over New Variants and other such propaganda. The great Canadian herd seemingly completely taken in with the SCAM, and perfectly ready and willing to be locked down again….Eloquently describing what one poster alluded to: “if something happens, then by God, the Govt Must Do Something..!!”

      Status normalis in Sheep Country.

  2. YVR was a useless den of incompetent snivel savants before covid.

    So, nothing new.

    1. YVR was a useless den of incompetent snivel savants before covid.

      I flew through there enough times on my way to Fort St. John after the phony plague started. I agree. It’s a horrible airport.

      It didn’t help that most of those flights were with Air Can’tada.

  3. I’m sure I saw No Way Out on Turner Classic Movies at one time. By the time that movie was made, Richard Widmark had established a reputation for playing tough guys.

    What may be more notable is that it’s the second movie for Sidney Poitier, several years before what he was in what some may consider his breakout role several years later in The Blackboard Jungle.

    1. A while ago, I posted the URL to the movie Twelve O’Clock High. Here’s the link to a poor imitation, The Thousand Plane Raid:

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-U5xWcIKmE

      It’s not that great, filled with all sorts of war movie cliches, but it does have some good flying scenes, many of which were actual combat footage. I think it borrowed the B-17 belly landing scene from TOCH, but, this time, it’s in colour.

      One reason I point out this movie is that it has a number of actors that were better known for other roles.

      The star, Christopher George, was in a few John Wayne movies but he’ll always be remembered for The Rat Patrol.

      J. D. Cannon plays an American general and I think the movie was made shortly before he played Marshal Sam McCloud’s New York boss.

      Bo Hopkins plays a bomber pilot and, that same year, he was in The Wild Bunch and a few years later, was the gang leader in American Graffiti.

      A year before this movie was made, Tim McIntire played the first version of Meathead in the original pilot for All in the Family.

      Maybe the most recognizable member of the cast is Gavin McLeod. The following year, he was a tank crewman in Kelly’s Heroes, but he’s perhaps best known for his role as a news writer in The Mary Tyler Moore Show and, later, the captain of The Love Boat.

  4. Back in the day, was flying home from Vancouver when hit this totally anal security guard. Bear in mind that I was, even in those days, a woman of mature years but I happened to be wearing an underwire bra. This young man (not Caucasian) insisted on patting me down rather personally and then had me do a 180 so he could check my back. Did said turn to face a wall of stunned fellow passengers who obviously can’t quite believe what they are seeing. Finally get through security to head towards my gate when see the local shoeshine post is staffed by a woman in full Muslim gear, minus the face mask. Contemplate going back to security and asking how frequently she is checked, given the propensity of some of her co-religionists to commit terrorist attacks, but decide just to get out of town while I could. Have never gone back

    1. Your guard sounds like some of the soyboys who insisted on giving me “closer inspection” at the Edmonton International Airport. The last one who did that to me was either trying to fill a mandated quota or was looking for an excuse to feel up my leg.

    2. At Midway I had to remove a tiny silk jacket worn for modesty over a light silk tank. I couldn’t hide a credit card in that outfit. In the next line there’s an East Indian gal wearing an elaborate sari wrapped in a huge pashmina. She could have carried a shotgun under all that. I embarrassed myself by hollering that fact at the TSA guy. Then I was the focus of hateful looks because I commented about a foreign national.
      Then, another business trip leaving Atlanta. I’m wearing an underwire bra even though TSA guys have already felt me up twice previously. Sometimes there’s no choice. The little TSA gal takes me over to a line of businessmen standing next to a janitor’s closet. They continued adding businessmen to the line every few minutes. I turned to the gal and asked, Are you profiling Republicans? Oh, no ma’am, she says. About 20 minutes later another TSA gal takes me into what was actually a janitor’s closet with the supplies pushed to one side. I had to duck under the shelf and lift my blouse to show the bra. Guess it could have been worse.
      The fact that TSA has largely maintained their flawed policies and standards telegraphs that restricting travel is the plan, not a by-product.

      1. I know I’ve mentioned this numerous times, but it’s worth repeating to show how ridiculous airport security measures can be.

        Last year, I made my last flight to northern B. C. as I was going to bring my truck down to register it in Alberta. That day at the airport near Edmonton I was required to go through a full body scan.

        I did my usual emptying out of my pockets blah blah blah before going into the scanner. I wore a nylon belt with a plastic buckle but they wanted me to remove that as well. That still wasn’t good enough.

        I was called aside for “further inspection” and why? Because the top of my pants wasn’t parallel with the floor. Yeah, I could have hidden some invisible weapon somewhere in my pants, even though I removed everything else and I had just been scanned. Uh, dummies, if I take off my belt inside the scanner because you mewled and puked about it, how am I supposed to know that detail about my pants?

        When I growled at the soyboy who “inspected” me (i. e., felt up my leg), he threatened to sic a supervisor on me. Any wrong move on his part, and my other knee might have developed a mysterious twitch…..

    1. The headline I saw was 1st, 2nd place make out while 3rd place holds her spawn. very different and I don’t remember where I saw that.

  6. The month of June is National PTSD Awareness Month. According to the National Center for PTSD, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that some people develop after experiencing or witnessing a life-threatening event, like combat, a natural disaster, a car accident, or sexual assault.

    But I wonder how many companies will display this instead of virtual signaling a perversion of choice lifestyle.

    In Canada we commemorate National Indigenous History Month. During this month, take time to recognize the rich history, heritage, resilience and diversity of First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples across Canada.

  7. Everyone in Canada must have PTSD after the “covid” fraud and the continuing lie that the vaxxes do something other than harm and kill people.

    2. The vaccines do something other than harm and kill people: They make some people a lot of money. There would be neither harm nor good done with vaccines otherwise.

    1. Maybe he had an allowance from his Mommy. I used to get 25 cents per week….(its sarcasm, when is the media going to search for truth and not narratives?)

    3. Greg.

      No Job, No credit No money…uhuh
      But he had 2 Military M4’s, likely at a minimum, a 9mm pistol…its a wonder “THEY” didn’t provide him with some std/stun Grenades as well..?

      This and other incidents (Govt Ops – False Flags), to support DEM Anti Gun Rhetoric.
      Why the American Public has not to date Risen up against the FILTH in DC is beyond me.

      Has anyone heard what actually happened in Kansas City..?
      Has anyone heard what / who was involved in Las Vegas..?
      Who put up that POS to drive through a Santa Claus parade
      ….and hundreds more

      We’ve had similar shit in Canada.
      Wheres the Public Enquiry about the N. Scotia Shootings..??
      The Quebec Mosque Shootings ..?? (Why was there no REAL investigation of the reported 2nd Shooter. CBC). I sure don’t buy some 20 yr old kid with a Mad on against Islamics..

      …& Hijabi Girl..??

      All 100% False Flag ops IMO and all to push the same LEFTIST agenda.

      For Certain a CLEANSING is due….World Wide and it’s not us that needs it. Start with a cpl Hypersonics into DAVOS and GENEVA for starters.?

      1. steak
        I think about all the negative shit I’v been reading about Putin, for the last 15-20 years, and I come to realize this whole”rest” thing has been long in the operational stage. That Trump ordered the release of the Kennedy files, which has now been put on hold by current WH, tells me the CIA has more to cover up than most would believe. Yes, both Kennedy killings were deep state!

    1. So the Metis didn’t know what they were doing when they sold their Metis scrip for cash instead of redeeming it for land? Horse poop! The Metis were more likely teamsters or traders. WTF would they want farm land for?

  11. On speech and conduct, repressive tolerance is a feature, not a bug:

    Bruce Pardy for Inside Policy

    The country is polarized because one side rejects the legitimacy, indeed the existence, of the other.

    By Bruce Pardy, June 3, 2022

    It’s okay to insult conservatives, truckers, and vaccine skeptics, but it’s not okay to insult Jagmeet Singh, the leader of the federal NDP. That’s the lesson to be taken from Acting Peterborough Police Chief Tim Farquharson. After protestors at a provincial election rally in Peterborough earlier this month called Singh a traitor, Farquharson called their actions “morally unacceptable” and their belief systems “reprehensible, unconscionable, and in some cases, criminal.”

    1. I’m pretty sure that India will be part of the establishment’s “Axis of Evil” soon enough.

  14. So, the Greeks confiscated an Iranian tanker full of oil, at the behest of Biden, so the Iranian Revolutionary Guard pirated a Greek tanker.
    Looks like piracy is now mainstream.

    1. This coming from the chief ornithologist of Canada who correctly discovered that Canada does have penguins and that they look a lot like puffins.

  19. Flew through the YYZ disaster early April. On landing had to go through the charade of testing in the arrival lounge despite having had a PCR test before leaving the UK. For the next flight early on Sunday morning, arrived over two and half hours early, needing only to show my “paperwork” having no bags to check. Absolute chaos. 1hr 45 min of inching forward, nowhere near the counter, it’s panic time. Flight would have been missed but for jumping out of the queue and finding an airline agent to give me the boarding pass for the mile dash to the gate. Toronto Pearson is now on my no-fly zone.

    1. The last time I flew through Pearson was in the late 1980s. It was a mess back then.
