    1. If only we had a durable, reliable way to generate electricity that could survive weather conditions on the Great Plains. The great thing about renewable energy infrastructure is how often it needs to be replaced – because we’re promised “Green Jobs,” picking glass out of a field. Everyone wants that job!

    2. That’s what’s meant by “renewable” energy … the solar panels and windmills have to be constantly renewed. $cha-ching-chong$ …

    1. The teenager, named as Nahel …

      Gee … why wouldn’t his full surname “bin Muhammad” be used?

  1. PostMediia and Northstar (the owner of the Toronto Star group) are in talks to merge:
    https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/canadas-postmedia-network-confirms-merger-talks-with-nordstar-capital-2023-06-27/

    It is true that establishment newspapers are dying. And it is true that the conservatism in Postmedia is too middle-of-the-road for most SDAers. But the proposed business arrangement seems OK with me. The Toronto Star can remain with the wackjobs and cheer on Chow’s intended destruction of Toronto. But I would like to see all of the rest of the smaller dailies and weeklies under PostMedia’s control. And that the powers that be can slice and dice enough to finally start earning a profit.

    The new, grassroots conservatism is on the internet, with small independent news groups. But there are good people at PostMedia with good ideas.

    1. That didn’t take long.

      The fools in the bongs government ignored all the warnings and passed a bill intended to save print journalism. The jackass Marco Mendocino led the charge. He thought the government could force Meta Facebook etc to pony up cash for their use of Canadian news on their platforms. They simply dropped Canadian news and moved on. No negotiating, nothing.

      The merger will lead to further cuts

  2. A poster writing on the Globe and Mail comments section — under an opinion column raging against the NHL’s decision to ban special pre-game jerseys — makes an interesting point. He likens Pride Month to the 1970’s Chinese cultural revolution under Mao Tse Tung. Then people and organizations were forced to display allegiance to Mao communism through a variety of actions. If they did not conform to these rituals, they were punished. Similarly today the powerful alphabet lobbies force people to obey a set of anti-family rituals. If not, the dissidents are punished. (No link).

    1. Yes, the similarities between the Mao Cultural Revolution and the current Woke Cultural Revolution are striking, right down to the public self-abasement of struggle sessions.

  3. Update: Day 4 of SUNCOR wide “IT” issue.
    TEAMS, SHAREPOINT, Outlook AND pretty much anything digital/sharing is down.

    We are at the point of using Brand New out of the pkg, USB,s to transfer info to 1 dedicated laptop connected to 1 of 6 normally avail. printers in our particular complex.

    Need to send an NDE request..?? Print it off and then take a pic – send via text. Works for me.

    Ops is fine as (at least at our site), totally different systems used to run this plant…although any connected measuring devices are down.

    Back to 1984…fun times…lol.

    Cyber Attack or something embedded yrs ago…no one knows as of yet….but scuttlebutt has it that TEAMS was the epicentre. And its not just us…other Corps also affected.

    Stay tuned

  4. Chapters/Indigo is finally getting what’s coming to them. After destroying the Canadian book industry, Heather Reisman the owner announced she is leaving her own board of directors. Good riddance Heather, you did a lot of damage.

    1. Going to one of their stores is like going to a library run by Facebook. No wonder everyone in this country is so freaking stupid.

  6. Leduc RCMP seek public assistance with vandalism investigation
    https://www.canadapolicereport.ca/2023/06/27/leduc-rcmp-seek-public-assistance-with-vandalism-investigation/

    Leduc RCMP are asking for the public’s assistance to identify those involved in the vandalism to the Pride crosswalk installed by the City of Leduc at 50 Street and 47 Avenue in Leduc.

    On June 24, 2023, Leduc RCMP were notified by the City of Leduc, that there were black tire tread marks left across the Pride crosswalk, which was installed last week as a symbol of inclusion in Leduc…

    1. Yeah. I live in Leduc. They painted the pride flag across the street, eight feet wide.

      I think I’m going to speak to city council on Monday. I’m pretty sure none of the councilors is an engineer, and that they didn’t consult a civil engineer before doing this. Asphalt covered in paint gives less traction than bare asphalt. It wouldn’t matter if it was solid white, there would be burnouts. Maybe not the intentional ones, but just burnouts from the sudden loss of traction.

    1. The only ones being enriched are the invaders as well as the politicians who are pushing for this against the wishes of Canadian, not that we are going to do anything to stop it.

  7. Parents of Brokstedt victims report on the moment of the news of death

    Not until the end of the article do they say:
    The trial against the alleged perpetrator begins on July 7 in Itzehoe district court. Stateless Palestinian Ibrahim A. reportedly attacked passengers on the train with a knife on January 25, killing two people, Anne Marie and her boyfriend. Five others were injured. The man had been released from custody in Hamburg just a few days earlier. He is charged with murder and attempted murder.
