  1. Read “In Search of Excellence.” One of the things that came up regularly in Tom Peters’ books was the devolution towards policy. Policy eliminates thinking. The problem being that we eliminate the thinking from a lot of jibs without eliminating the pay that used to come with the thinking required.

  2. Group dynamics causes riots and lynching’s.. Its also the key dynamic in politics.. All one needs to do is lay low the law of the land and watch the sparks fly.. A top down red meat revolution where the meek, the middle come along for the ride..

    Spectators who have no idea who they are.. But they know damned well who they are not.. The target…

  3. Trump has just lost me but maybe there is hope, in an ironic way.

    He just told Laura Ingraham in an interview he doesn’t like Poilievre because apparently he said “mean things,” that he doesn’t care if the Liberals win when Laura pointed out they are using him as an election wedge, and then showed his true agenda, to break up Canada, which will then become the 51st state, by “preferring Liberals win.”

    Trump is now a confirmed and dangerous idiot on US/Canada trade and thus bilateral relations.
    But the glass remains half full as Conservatives get to yell from the rooftops that “Trump prefers Liberals.”
    Actually, we are screwed because if Marx Carney and his collectivist cabal get re-elected Alberta is gone.
    Not as the 51st state, but an independent country enjoying the US standard of living without guns and racism.

    1. I actually agree with Trump’s conclusion. PP is petrified to say that Trump is justified in levying tariffs against a country that takes massive advantage of America in their own tariffs. And a country that told America to Eff-off about controlling your narco money laundering, border security, and fentanyl exports. PP … NEEDS … to feed the irrational Canadian Pride. Or he stands NO chance of getting elected. So you’ve got a cuck for a “conservative” PM candidate.

      Let me remind PP of the famous Book of Revelation quote where God says … I will spit you out of my mouth because you are lukewarm, you are neither hot or cold. Let me complete the verses …

      17 You say, `I am rich and have many things. I need nothing.’ You do not know that you are in trouble and need help. You are poor. You are blind. And you have no clothes to wear.

      18 I tell you what you should do. You should buy from me gold that has been made clean by fire. Then you will be rich. And you should buy from me white clothes to wear. Then people will not see that you have no clothes, and you will not be ashamed. You should buy from me healing oil to put on your eyes. Then you will be able to see.

      PP needs to admit that Canada is poor … and naked … and needs their eyes opened by your southern benefactors. I’m not implying a God-Canada relationship with the US … but suggesting PP is a lukewarm “conservative” who does not have the convictions of his faith.

  4. A few years ago, one pure laine Quebecois went to the emergency room because of abdominal pain. He didn’t have his health card on him, so he was sent away. Like who doesn’t have one of those by default in Canada. Anyway he went to get his card and died from a ruptured appendix on the way back to the hospital. The health system investigated itself and found no wrongdoing. They followed protocol. A person died, but that doesn’t matter, protocol was followed and that all that matters.

      1. French Canada was settled by the French while they controlled the colony, and they kept detailed records of the settlement and the growth of the population. French settlement ended when the French gave up the colony to the English, and the French Canadians we know today are the direct descendants of the French colonists that remained after the English took over. One is French Canadian precisely to the extent that one is related to and descended from the French settlers.

        There is thus a significant chunk of the population with documented family trees in which every member descends directly from one of the original colonists. Such people, with absolutely no non-French-Canadian blood, are called “Pur Laine”, literally “pure wool”, used idiomatically as equivalent to “died in the wool”. If the Pepsis have a reputation for racist lunacy, in fairness they come by it honestly. Racial purity is a wild notion to most of us but it’s a simple fact of life to them.

  5. The bureaucracy follows protocols to keep their “jobs” . What’s the payoff for the self retarding Leftards trapped in the unintelligent system with the rest of us that they only have ridicule for the people that have noticed?

  6. AKA “Corporate Stupidity”. I’ve got a “Fact Sheet” that I’ve used when winding up Corporately Stupid companies by billing them back with a “Corporate Stupidity Surcharge”…

    Q. What is Corporate Stupidity Surcharge?
    A. Corporate Stupidity Surcharge is a fee that we charge organisations that exhibit
    Corporate Stupidity.

    Q. What is Corporate Stupidity?
    A. Corporate Stupidity is a phenomenon seen in organisations, particularly large
    companies and other big bureaucracies. It is typified by behaviour by the organisation that
    is stupid.

    Q. Can you give me some examples of Corporate Stupidity?
    A. Sure:Trying to charge an “early termination fee” when the customer has cancelled in the
    “cooling off period”; not paying compensation due; sending a demand for payment for a
    different amount from the bill; not listening to what the customer is telling you. The classic
    is sending out a final demand for £0.00 – but there are many other examples..

    Q. I work for a Corporately Stupid organisation – Does that make me stupid too?
    A. Not necessarily, you might be quite bright yourself and never do anything stupid in your
    personal life. When you get to work though you will be forced to do stupid things because
    that is how the setup just is. As the well known saying goes: “You don’t have to be stupid to
    work here, but it helps.”

    Q. What can my organisation do to avoid Corporate Stupidity Surcharge?
    A. Sadly, probably nothing – it is just too stupid! You could try to explain to your line
    management what stupid things that your organisation is doing in the hope that it might
    change. This probably won’t do much good as they will be constrained by the same
    stupidities as you are, even if they are not so stupid themselves. Maybe you could try
    circulating this FAQ amongst any colleagues who are bright enough to understand?
