  1. Waiting for the memes on Canadian curling.
    You could dress up the “Incredibles” in Canadian uniforms and have Elastigirl as the curler repeatedly stretching out her finger adjusting the stone, Violet invisibly adjusting the other teams stones, Dash working the broom creating paths curving over 90⁰, Mr. Incredible tilting the whole sheet, Frozone as a judge who freezes scoring Canadian stones in place, and Edna as a judge who criticizes the opponents uniforms, and when the other team protests… yeah… they meet Jack-Jack.

      1. Nonsense … the assimilation is coming along nicely. Ohhhhhh!? You thought the invading immigrants were going to assimilate. Silly white Brits … YOU are assimilating to Islam. You’ve rejected your own Christian heritage … so you’ve made yourselves ripe for conversion … starting with your little white girls.

    1. The Trump Recession
      Every liberal economist has made the same claims. It’s easy to ignore them, though, as they haven’t been right about anything since Eisenhower was in office.

    2. Silly Dumb Biker … Jerry Powell (and noted economic expert – KM) are still waiting for the tariff “tax” to kick in. Waiting … waiting … dum dum de dum dum dum

  2. Too close…

    OH CANADA: With Alberta on the brink of deciding on independence, PM Carney has reportedly dispatched Chinese shock troops to the province armed with firearm types that were seized from residents 30 years ago.

    1. I’m not convinced term limits was the Founding Father’s blind spot … but remanding election rules to the States … with no Federal oversight sure was a blind spot. It has delegitimized our Elections.

  3. If this wasn’t so sad it would be hilarious.

    This sounds like a joke, but it’s not:
    – 1 in 12 incoming UCSD freshmen don’t know middle school math,
    – and the remedial math course was too advanced,
    – so UCSD had to create a remedial remedial math course,
    – and a quarter of the students placing into it had a perfect 4.0 GPA in their high school math courses.

    That sounds so ridiculous, like something you’d read in The Onion, but it’s unfortunately real.

    1. Sadly … I observe my grandkids fixated on K-Pop Demon Hunters … facepalm. During their formative years.

      I don’t consider being taught that K-Pop boy bands or Girl groups will SAVE humanity with a catchy song. Nope … being taught to sing about demons doesn’t qualify as being raised with Nobility and Grace

      Only God … a creator more powerful than any human who ever was born and died … is the true source of Nobility and Grace

    2. On the topic of RUINING children by teaching them the profane and the vile … instead of nobility and grace … I offer this, which was inspired by a couple of radio guys I listen to who were speaking about how our children … who used to be sacrosanct … and we all agreed that children should never be dragged into brainwashing or vile physical acts … ever. But now the left has now broken that seal … broken that covenant.

      We have lost all reverence for the sacred.

    1. Let me get this right … The animal rights people want you to eat crickets instead of meat … because it’s WRONG to kill a living cow … but is acceptable to kill millions upon millions of living crickets?

      OK then … got it.

    1. Reader, going after Jewish summer camps is about as low as one can go, even for Muslim activists.

          1. I used to be a long-time Liberal, though hadn’t been active until the 2015 election.

            My riding has never gone Conservative federally in over 40 years and I didn’t want the NDP candidate to win.

            I know that we were getting non-citizens to vote, because when I questioned lists of people to bus to the polls because I personally knew of people on the lists who were not citizens, I was told by the campaign manager, “don’t ask, don’t tell” and “everybody does it”. And we had hundreds of Liberal diehards who were willing to vouch the people were in their poll and were eligible to vote, for ANYBODY in the same poll assigned to them by the party, even though they likely did not know them.

            So it isn’t supposition, I witnessed people talking about it, saw non-citizens on lists of people to drive to the polls, and I quit the party.

            You can call me a coward for not trying to tape record it, but I have seen what has happened to people who have done such things.

            This has nothing to do with “invasion”; this has everything to do with political parties willing to do anything to win. And these strategies which make past improprieties look tame, all came from Team Obama to Team Trudeau.

  4. “Janice Charette to be Canada’s top trade negotiator during CUSMA review
    She advised Trudeau to invoke the Emergencies Act”

    Tamara Lich adds her commentary… but somehow doesn’t mention that the Emergencies Act was used unconstitutionally in this case. No matters, it’s been a few weeks and there doesnt’ appear to be any repercussions for this oversight.

    I apologize for posting this with her photo included…

    1. “Cabinet had to bring “the full power of the federal government” against the #FreedomConvoy, wrote Janice Charette in confidential memo prior to the government’s invoking of the Emergencies Act.
      Truckers threatened “social cohesion” and “national unity”, said the ex- @PrivyCouncilCA Clerk.”

      “All hands on deck, no idea too crazy, let’s look at absolutely everything,” said Charette. “Let’s look at every law we have.”
