      1. I wish it were that simple. But this might be a precursor of what’s to come.

  3. Flick on Netflix…highly recommended!
    BOSS LEVEL
    A former special forces agent is trapped in a time loop and relives his death over and over again.

    A definite show to watch many times!

  6. Good Zerohedge article discussing the ESG world and the conservative boycotts:
    https://www.zerohedge.com/political/esg-dystopia-why-corporations-are-doubling-down-woke-even-they-lose-billions

    What I like about this piece is that it puts forth the idea that “conservative boycotts are more effective than left-wing boycotts”. I do not know if that is true. But I have spent the last 35 years worrying about how well-organized the left is, and how unorganized the right is. After all, the left now controls everything. Conservatives are the new counterculture.

    We have seen two rightist victories in the past teo years: the Freedom Convoy and the Bud Light boycott. The first was organized by three or four unknown people running small groups in Alberta. The latter was triggered by Kid Rock shooting at Bud Light cans on YouTube. The will to protest is there by alienated conservatives and moderates. They just need leadership and organization.

    1. What utterly pathetic ‘victories’. If that’s what being ‘organized’ gets us then turn up the entropy.

    2. Don’t forget Target and Disney.
      Of course I don’t believe that these are technically boycotts, they are just outright abandonments of the brands. Bud Light will not get those customers back no matter what they do, they have changed habits permanently. Bud light is now being pulled from store shelves because… well shelf space is valuable to store owners, and products must sell enough to pay for that space or be replaced. The big winner in all of this that I think everyone can applaud is the small local breweries that have picked up new customers that would never have tried them before.

      The fundamental truth of ‘Get Woke, Go Broke’ is not that you will suffer from a conservative boycott, it is that you are ignoring sound business fundamentals to pursue an ideology. Even companies catering to an overtly leftist clientele go broke when they get woke, like the communist coffee shop in Toronto with the pay what you can (want?) model. A company could also go broke if they ignored their customers and business fundamentals to try to push a conservative, or right wing, or any other ideology, it just seems to happen so visibly to the woke because they never shut up, and a prerequisite of being woke is a fundamental detachment from reality.

      While UnMe calls these victories pathetic, can anyone name an example of when people protested and the government then over the next few weeks backtracked on everything they were doing and a year later was denying they ever did parts of it? Can anyone dispute that the world is a better place with less shitty piss water beer on the shelves.

  13. Brijesh Mishra, the man who sent students facing deportation charges to Canada, traced to US
    https://www.thestatesman.com/india/brijesh-mishra-the-man-who-sent-students-facing-deportation-charges-to-canada-traced-to-us-1503189003.html

    “Though the good news is that in Canada, the committee of the House of Commons has passed a motion saying that the students facing deportation be treated as victims – the focus should be to penalise the culprit and not the students.”

    1. Curious how, upon DJ’s resignation as Blackie’s personal racketeer, Blackie suddenly bails the country & flies out of reach of his fawning media.

      Nothing to see here, folks.

      1. It is a waste, especially when Canada’s soldiers have to buy basic equipment because then government failed to provide it.

          1. Sending money to the Ukraine is hardly a better use for that money than “propping up Bombardier”. Bombardier, every now and then, actually produces something useful with the funds they get.

    3. $500 million would have been more than enough to ensure that every single soldier, sailor and airman in the Canadian Forces was properly equipped. Funny how Trudeau can throw money at the Ukraine, but not to our military.

  26. High cost of living has international students in Canada turning to the sex trade
    https://tnc.news/2023/06/09/international-students-sex-trade/

    …
    “Parents have sold their land and jewellery and their assets to send the child here to Canada with the hope that, you know, once he or she gets them permanent resident status, then the family will be called here.”

    Singh also said that at the Brampton hospital, the monthly abortion rate has skyrocketed: “Some of the doctors have said that this was unheard of… of course if you are working in the sex trade, many men don’t want to use protection.”…

    Unfortunately, high rent costs in Canada are only exacerbated by the influx of immigrants and temporary residents like international students, as demand for housing in Canada far exceeds supply.

    In Cape Breton, NS, where international students make up 70% of the local university’s enrolment, there is a severe housing shortage. The international students end up cramming themselves into dilapidated units, as that is the only way they can afford their lives here. One student from India died in a house fire last year, and it was found that eight international students were living in one side of the duplex, and five in the other.

    In 2022, there were 807,750 study permit holders in Canada…

    1. Lol, there’s breakthroughs on multiple fronts. Pathetic Russian propaganda.

      Where were you when it took Russia 10 months to take Bakhmut?

    I might suggest that the poster ‘Reader’ start their very own aggregate site as their level of enthusiasm far exceeds my scrolling ambitions.

    1. Wow , what a man Rep.Larry Mcdonald was and a Democrat to boot, fearless.
      Telling truth bombs left , right and center.
      He was 100% correct and I didn’t know that Regan had over 250 CFR and Trilateral types advising and running his administration.
      For these facts to spill out you could hazard a guess that being on that plane was a big mistake on his part but in those days Killary and Old Billy were just starting to learn the ins and outs of mysterious ‘ deaths ‘ happening to anyone who crossed their paths, they used less obvious means of eliminating someone.
      Has all the hallmarks of Kissenger and David Rockefeller.

      Thanks for this gem, I am surprised it has survived.

    1. Longer stays on work visas, not increased immigration. The Japanese policy is that you come and work where they need workers, and when you are done you go home. This is due to their demographic collapse, not multiculturalism.

      1. It’s a gateway drug. Once we get them hooked, we start pushing the residencies, the new citizens, and then population replacement. Like I said: no one gets to say no.

        1. Japan still has tons of bars, restaurants, stores, and other businesses that bar foreigners from entering… not working, entering and patronizing said businesses.

          1. Oh they won’t be able to afford that when the foreigners have money and are everywhere. Mass immigration is a fountainhead of virtue.

  40. So the good news is that Smith’s new cabinet has 2 fewer posts than the previous one. The bad news is that it still has 25 goddam cabinet members, and that this includes most of the caucus. There is no reason for there to be a minister of tourism and sport or of multiculturalism or a lot of this nonsense. She seriously tried to justify this nonsense on the grounds of an ‘ambitious agenda’.

    1. Red Rachel had only 12. Mind you among communists finding 12 who knew how to work was remarkable.

  42. I noticed that there are a lot of people purporting to be from Ottawa that support the West’s complaints about the the federal government’s attitude towards Alberta and Saskatchewan. Nice to see those provinces have “brothers without borders” even in the heart of the beast.
