Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

This is what you get from fatherless girls.
Either they didn’t have a father figure in their lives at all, or (and perhaps maybe even worse) they had a dad that did the ‘yes dear, you’re wonderful’ and threw some money at them (and their moms) to not have to deal with them — so, spoiled yet neglected. With a heaping helping of society telling them they are (or should be) ‘girl bosses’ capable of leaping tall buildings with a single bound, beloved by all…and anything less than that is oppression/a sign that there is something wrong with them (this is an important facet that shouldn’t be overlooked, it works in tandem to do a real mind fark). Neurosis ahoy!
Leads to resentment and a bottomless pit of attention seeking, frequently in very toxic ways. And they don’t know how to change up that behavior because that’s the only thing they know.
“This is what you get from fatherless girls.”
Blaming men again? This is what you get from -relentless- propaganda, on TV, in movies, in books and on social media. Oh, and school. Don’t forget school, that’s a big one. They’re literally being driven crazy.
And who runs the schools? WOMEN.
Not having a male role model who’s worth a damn doesn’t help anything, but plenty plenty girls out there from “normal” 2 parent family homes are crazier than a bag of cats.
Well it was men who gave in to the women’s movements sometime in the late 19th/early 20th century in the first place. So, yes, put the blame where it belongs.
I blame Karl Marx for that. Not my fault, I wasn’t born yet. My parents weren’t born either.
Sir, the 60s and 70s were salad days for men who wanted to get laid with no repercussions, and they certainly enjoyed themselves. And society promoted it.
Were women stupid/foolish for going along with it? Yes.
Were men stupid/foolish for going along with it? Also, yes.
But here we all are. Ain’t it grand?
“Sir, the 60s and 70s were salad days for men who wanted to get laid with no repercussions, and they certainly enjoyed themselves.”
He’s talking about the 1860’s and 70’s. I’m not ashamed to say I wasn’t born yet, nor even thought of.
As to the 1960s and 70s, I still blame Karl Marx. One should be able to tell vandalism when one sees it.
I personally did not hit my stride until the 80’s, but found no shortage of ladies calling me up. Most of them were crazy, but when you’re a kid you don’t mind that so much. Trouble is, all the girls that were young and cute in the 80s are old and crunchy now, but still crazy AF.
If you refuse to take accountability, you get to live with the consequences.
Notice I never said that far too many women are buggy, and notice that I did bring up society’s role with the ‘girl boss/angry feminist’ bs that has helped to make them so.
But we do indeed need to draw some attention to the unmentioned part of the equation: without good men in their lives, you’re going to get this — same as with the boys (although I will grant that at some point I need to comment on the mom/boy dysfunction that is going on; there’s a lot to cover there; I need to think some more to get my framework…stay tuned!).
But back to my first sentence in this reply: you’ve got two choices on this one — proactively address the issue or cry about it (actually three choices: bury your head in the sand and hope it goes away; ps. it won’t).
“If you refuse to take accountability, you get to live with the consequences.”
True.
On the other hand, it takes two to tango. Currently we live in a world where 40+% of marriages end in divorce. Google says 69% of divorces are filed by women. Women pretty much always get the kids in divorce.
So what’s the cause of fatherless girls again? I’m just sayin’.
But to my original point, there are too many crazy females for lack of a male role model to be the cause of the phenomenon. There’s more going on than that. They’re -all- crazy.
And have been for a long time, if I’m honest. The number of borderline non-functional crazy women I knew back in the Mezozoic Era when I was dating…
It does take two to tango — which means the blame for divorce probably lies with both of the people involved, barring adultery (and both genders can be guilty of that).
“They’re all crazy” — well, at least maybe the ones you associate with. You sound like a lot of the angry, lonely cat ladies. Maybe you’re just someone who shouldn’t be sent into the produce aisle?
Ps. yes, I am married, pretty happily; my husband po’s everybody too — we’re soulmates that way; match made in Heaven and all that
And by the way: I say nothing less to the women I know who are all “boo hoo the men in my life are all ____”.
Maybe your picker is broken; maybe you should take some time to figure yourself out and what you really are/need/can handle before you go jumping into another relationship. And oh, by the way, “I can fix/save him (or her in the case of men) is a bs fantasy; you’re asking for trouble; you should avoid problems as best as possible with everything in life…kinda like buying a car, why would you willingly seek out a lemon?
See? I’m fair that way.
“Maybe you’re just someone who shouldn’t be sent into the produce aisle?”
Possibly. I have gotten pretty cranky about a lot of things in my old age. I try not to introduce too much personal info into my comments, because the Internet is Forever and cancellation is a full-contact sport these days.
“They’re all crazy” — well, at least maybe the ones you associate with.”
Sample bias certainly a possibility. All my dating took place in the 80s in Toronto, most of the crazy women I met were Canadian. Most of the normal and emotionally stable women I met were -not- Canadian. And unlike the Canadian girls they could count out change too. A major plus.
30+ years of observation later, I greatly fear the situation has not improved.
Jane, I have observed two things about women, at least many, if not most, of the wooing kind:
First, they let the perfect be the enemy of the good enough, or even the more than good enough, which leads to:
During the courtship phase a woman will not be bothered, or pretend not to be bothered, by the man’s quirks, certain habits and interests, and what she deems to be foibles.
But sometime after marriage the woman decides she needs to start filing off what she considers the man’s rough edges, a little bit here, a bit more there, and so on.
If the man stands his ground, that results in friction, sometimes a lot, between the pair.
The thing is a lot of women, if not most, won’t let it rest so they continue in other ways, or internalize their anger, both of which can lead to certain consequences.
If you don’t see the issue with single mom households you haven’t paid attention.
(Not all problems, of course, but a fairly big chunk. See e.g. the black community in the US.
“Liberal Parents, Radical Children” by Midge Decter – 1975
Nutcase parents raise nutcase children and “Unknown Jane” is also correct in her comment for sure.
50% Of young Leftist Girls/Women is in the US today have a diagnosed mental disorder. Then you have the K-12 and College Brainwashing for 16 years where as an example at Yale U. right now there are dozens of academic departments with ZERO Republicans. Perfect recipe for disaster and imagine young men today trying to find a wife.
Lots of reasons – and all self-reinforcing
imagine young men today trying to find a wife
And that’s how they get young men to rage quit (either by acting out or giving up), which also helps ‘the cause’.
“imagine young men today trying to find a wife”
They are very, very careful who they talk to. It certainly isn’t like the 80’s when a young lad could take up with any random girl and have some hope of success. Now they swipe left most of the time, because b1tches be crazy. And gold-diggers too, that’s a thing for sure.
Nah, from what I see a lot of them wind up angry as hell and as such have been perfectly programmed to be so.
Yes, there is a lot of psychological operation going on with this, and it’s not going to lead to anything good. Don’t believe me? Look at the comments whenever a man starts talking about something wholesome to do with relationship/family; the bots come out of the woodwork. Did you ever wonder why that is? Did you ever wonder why it is that ‘swiping left’/’304s!!!!’ is given so much play time and how it mirrors what the raging fembots say about men being no damn good? Almost like a self-fulfilling prophecy huh?
Oh, and by the way:
because b1tches be crazy. And gold-diggers too, that’s a thing for sure.
Did you ever stop to think that no sane, sensible woman with any amount of self-respect (aka. the type of woman you might have a chance of building a strong relationship with) is going to go for or stay with a man who lets slip with that?
I mean, I’ve known men like that — told them to go F themselves; I don’t want any part of that pain in my butt. I’ve advised my girls of the same thing; that’s nothing but a headache; leave them for the crazy women — they’re meant for each other (think about it).
“Look at the comments whenever a man starts talking about something wholesome to do with relationship/family; the bots come out of the woodwork. Did you ever wonder why that is?”
I did wonder for a long time why that was, but since Covid I’ve concluded the whole thing on social media is a psyop. That’s why I’m not on social media. Suspicion confirmed since Elon revealed that most of those bot-sites are in Asia and India.
No, I’m talking about the young dating-age men I know. They are Cautious, capital C. Because they’ve all been burned a couple times by fruitloops and/or huntresses out looking to score a meal ticket. It’s not like it used to be, when you could take a girl out to the movies a few times without worrying she was stealing your financial information. (See how I’m time-stamping myself? Nobody takes a date to the movies these days.)
Small-ish sample, but a common refrain society wide.
don’t forget that TDS doesn’t just manifest itself in women. It is contagious and can spread to men who have the pre existing conditions of weak testicular fortitude and/or delicate sensibilities.
The best treatment continues to be herd immunity practiced through the public shaming and ridicule of anyone who is afflicted with TDS. Thankfully it usually isn’t fatal, but can cause irreversible brain damage.
The madness is not exclusive to women.
Madness being nonsurvival behaviour?
Yet what we are living is perfect adaptation to lunatic times by these people.
Perverse incentives create perversion.

Dude, I made (most of) a living out of teaching English, training horses, and working for the government (which means you get to swim in those social milieus) — I know I’m nuts (but, ‘know thyself’ right?).
I also have a fondness for that Rudyard Kipling poem; he really is at his best when he’s pessimistic, resigned. Triumphal Kipling is a bit bland Kipling.
A dysfunctional woman, Jiang Qing, aka Madame Mao, played a prominent and unique role in the crippling of the People’s Republic of China as her husband descended into senility, leaving her as uncrowned empress of China. You prohably know Jiang Qing’s reign of terror best as the Cultural Revolution. Jiang Qing, a failed actress, used her influence to settle scores with people from the pre-war Shanghai movie industry whom she thought had stood in the way of her becoming a star, and reshaped official Chinese culture to her own philistine taste. All in her beloved husband’s name of course.
We know how the world would look if it were run by female leftists whose arrogance and vanity far outstrip their intelligence or genuine talent for anything but making men miserable. The Chinese lived in that hell until Mao’s death allowed the saner elements in the CCP to relieve Madame Mao and her henchmen of power and throwing them in prison, where “Chairman Mao’s bitch” (a title she proudly gave herself) committed suicide.
These women should be kept in closed institutions where their condition can be effectively managed until a pharmaceutical treatment is found for whatever is wrong with them, because at this point, the only treatment worth applying is euthanasia.
The scandal is that thanks to generations of short-sighted jurisprudence supposedly promoting the rights of women (or anyone, really, willing to thrust globalists into office at the polls), it’s impossible to have an obviously deranged woman committed to a mental hospital against her will until she finally succeeds in killing someone. This is most often either her own children, the father thereof, or both, but increasingly often nowadays, her victim is a law enforcement agent guilty of nothing but trying to do his job.
Yeah, the Gang of Four were ended by throwing them in prison. What do we do about today’s Democrats? When are the saner elements going to prevail?
“What do we do about today’s Democrats?”
Tax cut.
Because “violent Leftist political agitator” is a job these days, and it pays six figures. And the money comes from TAXES. Funneled through non-governmental organizations, it is used to pay people to violently disrupt church services in Minneapolis. And stuff like that.
If you want to make it stop, arresting the useful idiots is pointless and arguably counter productive. They -want- to be martyrs. Instead, you shut off the money tap. Because PAID protesters. They don’t protest if they don’t get paid.
“When are the saner elements going to prevail?”
That’s never going to happen. The people running that scam are results oriented. They’re getting what they want right now, they won’t change anything until it stops working. When their incomes dry up, then they’ll change things around.
A big shout out to Feminism. Mediocre, average to low average IQ women being told that they too can be the straw that stirs the drink.
At midmorning, when I sometimes leave a work site and hit the nearest coffee shop for a brew, its mostly women and a few pencil-necks babbling and tap-tappitying on their lap tops.
Men build stuff.
Women don’t build anything.
Letting them have a say on anything besides drapes and carpets, is retarded.
I do lay blame on the all-too-many pencil-necks – the mostly soft-handed, Nutless Cowards who won’t wear a fcking toque when its -20 degrees for fear of messing their hair – and real men’s failing to put them in their fcking place.
Unfortunately, until real war starts blowing these crazy women to bits, they won’t learn and the decline will continue.
Speak for yourself. Back in the day I put up miles of fencing and more than a few stall doors, sometimes with help, sometimes on my own — I consider that ‘building things’, wouldn’t you? And I’ve had men come to me to get my point of view; I try to give them good advice.
And my advice is (for both men and women because I think both have lost the plot but that’s just me):
Men and women are supposed to work together, symbiotically, as well as be able to stand on their own two feet. Might I suggest reading Proverbs 31(Proverbs 22 and Ecclesiastes 9 for the mens) — I don’t care if you’re an atheist; it’s a treasure trove of good ideas and also one of the basis for our civilization (refer back to my commentary on why we should read well).
Declaring your exceptionalism doesn’t discount my point.
I don’t consider myself exceptional. There is no reason why anyone can’t go out and do some things. Maybe that’s the problem: low expectations lead to low results.
I’m not saying you, but maybe we all should be encouraging people to do some things and take responsibility, hold them to a standard??
On a certain level I agree; too many women are allowed to play the wilting violet. Maybe it’s time as a society to stop allowing that — I don’t care how much you might want to woo them. This also goes to the response to my comment about Proverbs: maybe it’s time we started saying “hey, you should strive towards this, not that”? Or even “hey, your priorities are all screwed: 6 ft., six figure, whatever isn’t the most valuable thing when looking for a man; why don’t you look for ____instead?”.
“But I’m 5’6″ though”.
I believe you, Jane. But you ought to read the bit in Proverbs again about how a good wife (and by extension a good woman of any sort) is worth more than pearls. They’re worth more than pearls because they’re hard to find. You’re the exception that proves the rule. Alas.
Again, I’m not exceptional, nor a good person. I’m just good with my family — my husband and I suit each other….he’s perfect…for me.
We both had a nasty reputation for making the opposite gender cry (literally and sometimes just to be mean, not a point in our favor) before we had our fortuitous chance meeting in Middle Earth. We both probably would have had awful marriages if we’d wound up with somebody else.
If two murderous, problematic a-holes can wind up happily together (and reproducing…themselves) then less problematic people can do it.
There’s your message of hope and joy.
“Men build stuff. Women don’t build anything.”
Generally true.
You think it’s an accident that nobody is building anything in this country these days?
Dysfunctional and a VICTIM

Typical mope who thinks her freedom of speech includes the right to a captive audience.
Victimhood is part of the dysfunction.
It’s a temper tantrum to try and gain sympathy for jackass behavior. I am of the opinion that people learn this as children when Mom and Dad are not on board with parenting together. From what I’ve seen Mom tries to get girls on her side but cosset their sons; Dads try to get the boys on their side but cosset their daughters (see, I told you I was working on framing out my thoughts). Bad idea to do any such thing.
and society wants both of boys and girls to turn into easily malleable drones that it can herd — which is what you will get if you don’t teach children to control themselves; somebody’s got to provide the control.
I don’t know why it was Helen Andrews that started this particular preference cascade – others have been saying the same thing for far longer – but here it is. The avalanche has started; it is too late for the pebbles to vote.
If Pebbles can’t vote and Bam Bam can, that’s sexist!

Yes, for that portion of the population, they’ve gone full retard, emotionally stunted, useful idiots for the counter regime
My starter wife, suddenly, and with no forewarning cleaned out our apartment one day. I returned home from work to an absolutely EMPTY apartment. Not a stick of furniture, dishes, nada. Just my clothes piled into a closet. There was no hint of a marital problem that would have suggested such a shocking turn of events. It came suddenly and without any warning signs whatsoever.
To justify the shocking display, she wrote letters to my family members, and friends telling lies about my conduct. Utter lies. She legally changed her married and birth name from ‘Linda’ to some invented mystical inscrutable symbolic name. Her older brother helped her clean out the apartment. Just a few years later, that brother … a local middle school teacher … was accused of molestering the girls in his class … and drove his car off a cliff on HWY 1 committing suicide.
Yes Jane, she was cute and fun in bed … the 70’s were great for that! But she was seriously demented. An utter psycho. It was painful and shocking at the time … but was the BEST thing that could ever have happened to me. She did me a great favor by just disappearing.
Well, hey, we all make mistakes. I dated a guy who looked like a young, and muscular, Elvis — all the girls wanted him (that’s an ego boost, huh?); he rode a Harley and had a Corvette. Mom and Dad had money; he played minor league baseball.
And he was just completely unsuitable for me; no amount of looks or money or cool fun could make up for the fact that he got on my nerves/ruined my peace if I spent more than a date night with him; weekend at Mom and Dad’s lake house? I was looking for the exit. I pawned him off on a girl that was just gaga over him after a few weeks — I probably made them both happy at least for a time.
I think (I know) a lot of men make similar mistakes, and then they regret it, now don’t they?
It’s like buying a horse. You have to be honest with yourself first and then take off the rose colored glasses.
We should be teaching our children to 1) not make those mistakes and why and how to avoid it; 2) not be the mistake. Everybody would be a lot happier (maybe a lot of women would be less crazy and a lot of men would be less mad). Be honest with yourself; take off the rose colored glasses; you might find what you need (which may be a bit different than what you think you want) and be happy with as someone said above the good over ‘perfection’.
Knock on wood … both my kids have made STUPENDOUSLY great picks for mates. And my 4th grandchild (grand daughter) is due in May. I guess my wife and I modeled what makes for a long term relationships… even when we bicker … hahaha ha ha ha
Been Dazed and Confused for so long it’s not true.
Wanted a woman, never bargained for you.
Lots of people talk and few of them know,
soul of a woman was created below.
You hurt and abuse tellin’ all of your lies.
Run around sweet baby, Lord how they hypnotize.
Sweet little baby, I don’t know where you’ve been.
Gonna love you baby, here I come again.
Every day I work so hard, bringin’ home my hard earned pay
Try to love you baby, but you push me away.
Don’t know where you’re goin’, only know just where you’ve been,
Sweet little baby, I want you again.
Been dazed and confused for so long, it’s not true.
Wanted a woman, never bargained for you.
Take it easy baby, let them say what they will.
Will your tongue wag so much when I send you the bill?
And that’s all I have to say about that!
