      1. Cuba had a European standard of living pre 1959. Castro took them into the shithole world. Exactly like Venezuela 35 years later. Like Canada soon.

  1. L – Data analysis by the numbers, Kirsche’s skill set touches Canada, this time.
    Will it lead to reflection or be ignored in Quebec ?
    If he offers a big reward for a debate with a government health official. It can’t be suppressed.

    Celine Dion was disabled from a KNOWN SIDE EFFECT of the COVID vaccine (99.6% certainty)
    US government data shows it is 99.6% likely that Celine Dion got her Stiff Person Syndrome from the COVID vaccine. She can’t sue because of the liability protection.

      1. Yeah, maybe…
        But remember Eric Clapton speaking out? Didn’t really change much. Actually caused some previous fans to start hating him. Loco.
        We are in a very strange time of rigid polarization and politicization of every issue.

  2. L – Two sane people in America talk and are quite a contrast with those who are not.

    1. Naw. Not that Linda Carter wasn’t absolutely gorgeous, Mary Tyler Moore was, to me, a cut above. That smile!

    2. Loved the Mary Tyler SHOW. But she was asexual for me.
      Brigitte Bardot was my babe, whom I discovered c. 1962 at 13 y.o.
      But strangely I didn’t really think sex.
      Just the impossibly beautiful aesthetic. She was and is a work of art.
      And now in her mid 80s she’s as age-appropriate beautiful as ever and seems to have rejected what my wife calls JOBS.

      And she got into legal trouble a few times for “hate speech” for offending you know whom, which of course added to her charm.

  3. And how was your day?
    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/dec/16/poland-police-chief-jaroslaw-szymczyk-fired-grenade-launcher-gift-ukraine
    Police chief fired grenade launcher [INSIDE HIS OFFICE] given as gift by Ukraine, Polish media reports

    Reports are sketchy. He picked it up in Ukraine hence he is guilty of weapons smuggling and illegal possession that his office persecutes people for (collectors of war deactivated memorabilia for example). How did he manage to bring it across the border is another question. This appears to have been a training launcher, meaning real rocket with a dummy warhead. He thought that training meant non functional replica. He was injured by a backblast only, hence no Darwin award.

  4. I’m old enough to remember when Mary Tyler Moore was on the Dick VanDyke show, she was everyone’s sweetheart mom back then. Barbara Eden came along in that “special time”. I Could never understand why Larry Hagman, the astronaut who found her, always seemed cross with her. Dude, you’re the luckiest bastard in the universe…chill the hell out!!!

    1. I can only speak for young males in England at that time (Dick VanDyke show) – but if he EVER thought people were watching it for him, he was sadly mistaken.

  5. CTV house-Liberal Evan Solomon teams up with house-Liberal Gerald Butts to run media company GZERO at the Eurasia Group:
    https://thecountersignal.com/ctvs-evan-solomon-joins-gerald-butts-at-eurasia-group/

    The Eurasia Group has two fine Liberals here. Recall that Gerald Butts left in disgrace after the WE Charity scandal broke. Recall also that CBC News fired Solomon after he pocketed $300,000 in sales commissions selling art to contacts at the CBC. Look for GZERO near you.

    1. I believe Butts fell on his sword after the SNC scandal when Juthtin and his gang of arseholes pressured Jody Wilson-Raybould at least 49 times to try and get her to give SNC a fine.
      It was a clear cut case of obstruction of justice and the RCMP did nothing because they’re a clear cut case of Useless…unless you need a firehall shot up.
      Gerald Butts is a POS.
      Evan Solomon is to journalism what diarrhea is to coitus.

  6. I had dinner a few days ago with 2 EV owners – one owned a Ford F-150 Lightning and the other a Tesla Model Y. Now that winter is here I thought I’d ask how their EVs perform in cold weather.

    The Tesla owner said his range dropped from 600 km to just over 230 and he had to stop to recharge 3 times on a trip from Montreal to Toronto. He only recently purchased the Tesla so he thought there must be something wrong with the battery. He was thinking of replacing it.

    The F-150 owner bought his almost 1 year ago and made the same comment. Battery range dropped by over 50% in cold weather even though he always fully recharged.

    I mentioned my 2020 GMC 2500 HD diesel had a range of 1,036 km and I drove from Toronto to Timmins without refueling and still had more than a quarter tank. But my problem is the cost of diesel. On Highway 11, north of Barrie, I passed a gas station that listed regular for $1.39 and diesel for $2.29 per litre.

    Whatever your thoughts are on EVs they don’t seem to be ready for cold weather.

  7. This old fart can remember when MTM was a regular on Peter Gunn.
    Only her legs were shown at the end of each show

    1. “Only her legs were shown at the end of each show”

      The show was “Richard Diamond, Private Detective”

  8. The long-running aboriginal occupation of private property in Caledonia, Ontario is in the news again. A judge has just issued an injunction against the aboriginals permanently barring them from the land. Will the aboriginals leave of their own accord ? Will the Ontario Provincial Police do anything to enforce the injunction?

    We know the answer to both questions is “No” because this is exactly what has happened many times before in Caledonia.

    “More than two years after a group of Indigenous demonstrators started occupying a proposed development site in southwestern Ontario, a provincial court has again granted an injunction permanently barring them from the land.

    Foxgate Development was close to building 218 homes when Williams and 11 others walked on the site in July 2020.

    The group has maintained a presence ever since, despite previous injunctions and dozens of arrests, setting up a camp and arguing it is on unceded Indigenous land.”

    1. No one in the legacy media, or the alternative media for that matter, has come close to filling the void created when Christie Blatchford died in 2020. She was fearless and prolific in writing about issues that the politically-correct leftists wanted kept secret from the Canadian public. The nightmare that the residents of Caledonia, Ontario have lived through was one such instance. From her book about the events in Caledonia:

      “It officially began on February 28, 2006, when a handful of protesters from the nearby Six Nations reserve walked onto Douglas Creek Estates, then a residential subdivision under construction, and blocked workers from entering. Over the course of the spring and summer of that first year, the criminal actions of the occupiers included throwing a vehicle over an overpass, the burning down of a hydro transformer which caused a three-day blackout, the torching of a bridge and the hijacking of a police vehicle. During the very worst period, ordinary residents living near the site had to pass through native barricades, show native-issued “passports”, and were occasionally threatened with body searches and routinely subjected to threats. Much of this lawless conduct occurred under the noses of the Ontario Provincial Police, who, often against their own best instincts, stood by and watched: They too had been intimidated.”

  9. The BBC provides a heart warming story of a refugee: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-63993032
    His family fed from Iraq to Sweden where he saw MMA fights and wanted to become a fighter.
    He went to Britain to study sports science. Then he moved to the USA where the UFC is located for a career as a fighter.
    He shows his appreciation by, you guessed it, not thanking any of the countries or organizations that gave him the opportunity to advance.
    His version: “Arab traditions and values make me who I am and give me strength.” “Albazi credits much of his success to his Islamic faith.” “Albazi explained that he eventually plans to return to Iraq and develop MMA there.” At age 29 he doesn’t seem to be in a rush to return even though he parades about the ring with the Iraqi flag draped across his shoulder.
    In any other assessment one might call him an ingrate for flaunting his denial of the efforts of others to give him a chance at success but the MSM will never ask that question. Such a valued addition to any diverse society.

  10. It is virtually impossible to keep track of all the financial benefits and special privileges given to Canadian aboriginals. These of course are all paid for by taxpayers, or come at the expense of discriminatory policies endured by non-aboriginals.

    This is a special privilege for aboriginals I heard about today for the first time.

    Currently in Ottawa the federal public servant unions are venting their outrage at being told they will be forced to work in their offices two or three days rather than “working from home” full-time. [As a side note: nowhere in the public debate is there any mention of whether allowing federal public servants to work from home has contributed to the serious decline in the level of government services they provide to taxpayers since “working at home” was introduced in March 2020].

    In one of the newspaper articles on the issue, it was revealed that even before Wu Flu “working at home” employment became the norm for federal public servants, aboriginals were permitted to work from home if their “location was critical to their identity”:

    “Accommodation requests under the new policy will be assessed by each department on a case-by-case basis, according to a Treasury Board document about the plan.

    It lists several possible exceptions to the hybrid model, including for people who were hired to work remotely prior to March 16, 2020, Indigenous employees whose location is critical to their identity and workers who were already subject to different arrangements that pre-existed COVID-19.”

    https://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/sending-public-servants-back-to-the-office-could-create-logistical-nightmare-warns-union-boss

    That would mean if you are an aboriginal involved in the illegal land occupation in Caledonia, you could actually be working full-time for the federal government. What a country!

  11. Dr. John Campbell covered the ‘Vaxxed Get into Accidents’ story.

    Best comment:
    “The conclusion is: the vaccines are more effective at preventing traffic accidents than they are at preventing infection of Covid. ”

    “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAl7jHHuG9E

    1. One of the best comments I read on the topic went along the lines of, “So, unvaxxed drivers were involved in 25% of accidents. That means 75% of them were caused by jabbed drivers.”
