      1. According to Statistics Canada, 0.33% of the population is trans… yet somehow 100% of this political family???

      2. Just wondering….calling Dr. Peterson

        Munchausen by Proxy Definition
        Munchausen by proxy, also known as factitious disorder imposed on another (FDIA), is a mental health disorder in which a caregiver creates the appearance of health problems in another person, typically a child. This form of child abuse is characterized by deception and manipulation, as the caregiver fabricates or induces symptoms of illness in the child, often seeking medical attention and treatment for the fabricated condition.

        Key Features:
        A caregiver, usually a mother, fabricates or induces symptoms of illness in a child
        The caregiver seeks medical attention and treatment for the fabricated condition
        The child may undergo unnecessary medical tests and procedures
        Munchausen by proxy is considered a form of child abuse by the American Professional Society on the Abuse of Children

    1. Hope you are right. If the NDP gets in, you can say goodbye to the province. Their handling of aboriginal claims is nefarious and traitorous. Public is kept in the dark.

      1. Rustad announced on “Lies and Struggle Session Day” that his gov’t would work “collaboratively” with the natives, and hand over chunks of BC to them.

        That betrayal slammed my wallet shut.

        Just heading out now to vote- and I will vote Conservative- but I’m not at all enthusiastic about it. I expect to be deeply disappointed. Again.

    2. James, like Linda I hope you are right. The national media cartel support the B.C. NDP, and detest the provincial Conservatives. All of the reporting on the campaign has been one-sided.

    1. Thanks for the tip about shutting down the Los Angeles refinery. I hope that Smith is working behind the scenes to promote the idea of a new refinery in Alberta and is willing to start ignoring the lunatic fringe anti-oil, climate alarmist people. Having seen her promote carbon sequestration (an absolutely insane thing) does not make me optimistic. I don’t know much about the industry. Where would you put a new refinery? Lloydminster, Hardisty, Fort Mac?

  1. A panel of 3 judges in the Ontario Court of Appeal have ruled the Ontario Supreme Court needs to take another look at whether Ontario’s climate target (more specifically the reductions therein) violates the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

    https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/court-of-appeal-ontario-decision-1.7356540

    The main point is…

    “The young people who brought the case argued that the Ontario government’s response to climate change commits the province to a dangerously high level of greenhouse gas emissions, infringing on section seven. In particular, they took issue with the emissions targets set when Premier Doug Ford first took office. Section seven of the Charter affirms the right to “life, liberty and security of the person.”

    Problem is … what happens if new climate goals take away the ability to remain warm in your home during the winter, or prevent you from being able to afford the cost electricity to heat your home.

    “The Ford government scrapped Ontario’s cap-and-trade system and replaced the emissions reduction target of 37 per cent below 1990 levels by 2030 with a new target of 30 per cent below 2005 levels. The judges noted that, according to unchallenged expert evidence, this was a weaker target and fell short of what international science says is needed.”

    Unchallenged “expert” evidence of international science. We are losing control of our country. And while the court system in Ontario considers “weakened targets”, China and India are burning record amounts of coal.

    1. I do trust those judges have given up their cars, don’t fly, and heat their homes using only solar panels.

  2. Link here shows the p4ivate return on investment by university degree major:
    https://www.visualcapitalist.com/which-college-degrees-have-the-greatest-return-on-investment/

    I co-wrote an academic paper (decades ago) using similar research techniques. The return on investment is the students’ lifetime earnings minus costs of attending university. The “performing arts” majors suffer the worst losses, a minus $104,000 per major. This explains Hollywood’s support of the Democratic party all these years.

  3. Great piece in the National Post today by Amy Hamm on Samidoun finally being named a terrorist organization. Samidoun bullied many town councils to pass a motion calling for a ‘cease fire’. Threats were made to council at many of these council meetings/members.

    In light of the federal government declaring Samidoun terrorists, Hamm suggests these motions now be recinded. They should be – Immediately.

    Maybe someone could post the article and SDA’rs could have at it.

  4. I have a bold, innovative suggestion of my own: Prinz Blackface of Elbowgate could go MAiD himself…

    No ‘time to waste’: Jean Chrétien’s former right-hand man asks Justin Trudeau to step down

    While some have said it might be too late for the party to hold a leadership convention which would take several months to organize, Goldenberg said there is a “bold innovative way” which could allow a new leader to be chosen in a matter of weeks.
