  1. John Carpay: Online Harms Act the Latest Manifestation of Canada’s New Maternal Fascism

    Unlike its European ancestors from a century ago, today’s maternal fascism does not seek to harm your physical body. Today, you generally need not fear getting beaten up on the street for belonging to the wrong ethnic group or for supporting the wrong political party. Instead, under maternal fascism, you can be placed under house arrest because someone fears that you might say something hateful in the future. Maternal fascists will jail you for life, not based on bad behaviour, but simply for speaking the wrong words. Maternal fascists want to see you self-censor your own speech, or risk spending tens of thousands of dollars to defend yourself against a prosecution brought by the Canadian Human Rights Commission. Under maternal fascism, instead of having your small business ransacked by nationalist hooligans, you will be ordered to pay $20,000 to some “victim” whose feelings were hurt by your speech, plus $50,000 to the state.

    1. “Today, you generally need not fear getting beaten up on the street for belonging to the wrong ethnic group or for supporting the wrong political party”

      Hmm, Remember the Convoy John.??

      Maternal Fascism..?? BS.
      No Mr Carpay, this is in your face NAZIism Led by defacto NAZI’s

      Canada’s Liberal Party is the 21st Century embodiment of the NSDAP replete with SA goons near everywhere.

    2. The people trampled by horses at the trucker protest might differ about today’s Fascists being less violent.
      The Rebel news reporter falsely arrested after being assaulted by police is another example.
      There are many more.

    1. Don’t feel bad Bunny. It’s nice to have posts you can read and not just skip over.

    2. I for one am beyond sick n tired of the constant BS emanating from Colon/Allen S et all.
      That shit won’t be missed as far as I’m concerned.

  2. Donald Trump caused the COVID lockdown. I heard it this morning on the MSM.

  3. The Abominable Snowman, 1957

    “An English botanist (Peter Cushing) studying rare herbs at a remote lamasery in the Himalayas joins an expedition to find the legendary Yeti, against the wishes of his wife (Maureen Connell), only to discover that the intent of its gruff American leader (Forrest Tucker) is to capture or kill one and bring it back for commercial display.”

    “TURNS OUT, IF A GROUP of Nepalese monks are missing their yeti hand, they’ll accept a replacement from the same people who crafted the costumes and weapons for the Lord of the Rings movies. Just don’t expect them to forget how Jimmy Stewart smuggled part of the hand out under the nose of customs officials, or how the ensuing attention led to the theft of the monks’ other yeti relics.”

  4. America is running out of power.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/03/07/ai-data-centers-power/

    “When you look at the numbers, it is staggering,” said Jason Shaw, chairman of the Georgia Public Service Commission, which regulates electricity. “It makes you scratch your head and wonder how we ended up in this situation. How were the projections that far off? This has created a challenge like we have never seen before.”

    It might be paywalled but you can find it on MSN and other sites.

    “Across the board, we are seeing power companies say, ‘We don’t know if we can handle this; we have to audit our system; we’ve never dealt with this kind of influx before,’” said Andy Cvengros, managing director of data center markets at JLL. “Everyone is now chasing power. They are willing to look everywhere for it.”

    1. Logs help to dissipate artillery air-bursts and protect against hollow-charge weapons.
      The logs are also for un-ditching the vehicles (note the mud).
      Lightly armoured vehicles like these need all the help they can get.

  5. Georgia law to ban cities and counties that offer sanctuary to illegals.

    https://apnews.com/article/georgia-immigration-immigrant-sanctuary-cities-laken-riley-6bd4abb0ed2c9a071556b9a11f57017b

    “The new bill would let any Georgia resident sue, asking a judge to declare a city or county was violating the 2009 law. If a judge agrees, the state would cut off state aid, as well as federal aid it controls, except for a short list of emergency and health services. For example, a county or city would get no state money for building and maintaining roads.”

    1. No surprise whatsoever.
      The NDP and their Army of CUPE useless fascist morons have been virulently Anti-Semetic since the dawn of their very existance.

      NAZI’s in training.
      Y’all should have a good look at BC’s continuing Fascist Covid measures & Free Drug Policy. Seems to me they’re all seeking results that would mirror ther NAZI’s use of Zyklon B gas.

    2. I sent her a short email congratulating her for her decision. It’s not often you see a leftist with that kind of ethics.

  6. Terry Glavin describes how much our Great Helmsman (aka the Dear Leader) loves his Chicom masters, but it is a love he wants to keep in his secret closet:

    “In shutting down an ethics committee probe into just how it came to pass that two Beijing-linked scientists managed to get away with dangerously compromising security at the National Microbiology Laboratory in Winnipeg, at least the Trudeau government is being consistent.

    Ever since coming to power in 2015, the Liberals have chosen to hide the scope and extent of Beijing’s ever-expanding influence, interference and infiltration operations in Canada. By acts of obstruction, distraction and filibuster, the pattern is by now easily predictable. There’s nothing surprising about it anymore. The pattern played out exactly as you would imagine in the Winnipeg lab case.”

  7. R.O.P.’s top Canadian benefactor is delivering the goods once more:

    “Just days after International Development Minister Ahmed Hussen was swarmed by vociferous pro-Palestinian protesters in downtown Toronto over the weekend, his department is set to restore funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) — even as new details about the involvement of the organization’s staff in the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks on southern Israel come to light.

    One could hardly dream up a more perfect metaphor for the Liberal government’s total and complete moral cowardice over the last five months than the development minister literally caving to an angry mob of keffiyeh-clad demonstrators waving Palestinian flags and serenading him with shouts of “shame!” It may even be too on-the-nose as a piece of symbolism, but here we are.”

    1. ““Just days after International Development Minister Ahmed Hussen was swarmed by vociferous pro-Palestinian protesters in downtown Toronto over the weekend, his department is set to restore funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) ”

      And Pierre Poilievre will immediately call the Liberals out for this in public, right?

      (right?)

  8. FOX News reports on its web site that Democrats are worried about Joe Biden’s performance in the State of the Union speech tonight. What could go wrong?

    1. “What could go wrong?”

      Here’s a complete transcript of pResident Brandon’s SOTU speech.

      “Everything is fine. If I say anything else, I’ll get in trouble. Good night.”
      [Exit LEFT. No, the other LEFT. Try not to fall down.]

      Hmmmmm… there’s still a chance things could go south.

    1. The Nazis took over ALL the banks.
      Lefties today still insist he ‘Privatized’ them

  9. Multiple MSM outlets, including CNN and the
    NYT, report that AG Merrick Garland and DOJ have arrested Linwei Ding, a Chinese software engineer for theft. Ding, a GOOGLE employee, is accused of stealing GOOGLE AI technology for two Chinese competitors.
    I am looking forward to new and diverse depictions of revered Chinese leaders like Mao and Chou en Lai in blackface as China goes WOKE

  10. Canada’s attorney general justifies arrests for ‘thought crimes’ under Trudeau’s Online Harms Act
    https://thepostmillennial.com/canadas-attorney-general-justifies-arrests-for-thought-crimes-under-trudeaus-online-harms-act

    The Online Harms Act that targets online content that the Trudeau government deems to be “hate speech” or “harmful content” would also have people arrested for thought crimes.

    The provision enables anyone to initiate action against someone he or she believes may commit a “hate propaganda offense or hate crime.”

    The Online Harms Act, introduced last week in the House of Commons as Bill C-63, indicates:

    “Fear of hate propaganda offence or hate crime: (1) A person may, with the Attorney General’s consent, lay an information before a provincial court judge if the person fears on reasonable grounds that another person will commit; (a)an offence under section 318 or any of subsections 319(1) to (2.‍1); or (b) an offence under section 320.‍1001.”

    Justice Minister and Attorney General Arif Virani recently tried to justify the thought crime measure that would force a potential hate crime violator to wear an electronic tag or be banished to house arrest.

    Virani told The Globe and Mail that while it is important that this power be “calibrated carefully,” it might prove “very, very important” to impede the actions of anyone deemed to have demonstrated hateful behavior in the past or who has criticized any particular person or groups…. particularly the Liberal Party
