  1. Why should Spain be any different than any other nation formerly a part of Western civilization?

    1. ”Yearly droughts with record rain …”. Gawd how true and sadly funny is that!? BTW … this HAS to be the coldest May and June on record in N.CA. Unreal fog banks and wind. Yes, Lupus I sadly can appreciate that … a LOT

      No, here’s where I pray CA can rise from its ashes as a Phoenix, and once again become a great place to live. …

      Yeah, now I’ve got another rare vinyl lp to spend my hard-earned social security dollars on.

    1. I come from a family and “adopted” family of auto mechanics … and Mona Lisa Vito’s testimony about limited slip differentials gets me every time. Yeah, just brutally devastating knowledge.

      BTW … if you haven’t seen the film … watch Untamed Heart with Marissa Tomei. O.M.G. … what a young hottie!

  2. There are lots of people who hate the US everywhere in Canada, namely people that still watch traditional television “news”.

    I spent 25 years in Calgary and love the place. I now live in the Ottawa Valley. There are lots of US loving people around.

    These selective interview pieces are fun but are as one sided as your typical documentary.

    Sadly it is the older boomers who have fallen for this due to their loyal and misguided trust in the traditional media.

    We all know what is going to happen to that blob. They are soon going away and I think the world will get a little more reasonable and better informed each day as this blob continues to shuck off its mortal coil.

    1. Bears gotta eat, too. Although, a tough, stringy, chewy, tastes-like-shit-politician is probably low on the food chain.

  4. Spain is one of the countries where the locals are protesting “tourists/tourism”.

    Remember when governments all over said that when our heavy industry was shut down, they would encourage “tourism” to replace the lost jobs, and income?

  5. Edmonton man guilty of torching homes in Alberta Avenue area; court heard fires were set at behest of notorious slain landlord
    https://edmontonjournal.com/news/crime/edmonton-man-guilty-arson-abdullah-shah

    …Willier’s trial for the blazes began in April. The Crown argued Willier set the fires on the orders of landlord and accused drug dealer Abdullah Shah, also known as Carmen Pervez, who was later assassinated in his driveway in a homicide that remains unsolved…

    1. Ha! Like California … Canada isn’t the slightest bit bit interested in catching arsonists. Anything that counters their “global warming CRISIS!!!” narrative gets short shrift.
