        1. 6 Pack to Go brings back a lot of memories. Thanks NR

          When I was a colt in high school I played in a band and we’d play ‘dance jobs’. Sometimes we were out of town and by the time the gig was over and we finished chasin’ girls we would stop at a truck stop and eat. It was one of those all niters that had a juke box. Our guitar player loved HT and 6 Pack was on the box. Home by daylight….sometimes.

          Hank used a steel player Curley Chalker. He’s long gone now but he really blazed a trail on steel. Curley was famous for his playing but he was also noted for his bad temper. You may not think that musicians have a bad disposition but some do. Ginger Baker was one and Little Walter Horton (blues harp – Muddy Waters) was killed in a bar fight. Little Walter was a nasty.

          1. Whoops. Little Walter Jacob’s not Horton.

            Big Walter Horton is also a blues harmonica player

          2. I was going to post that last evening but got distracted. So here below, is another to make up for it.

            That was a nice memory you had. What did you all eat?
            I remember my friends calling those 2 am snacks, “lunches”. One time we ordered pizza and when the waiter bought it over to the table he dropped it and it landed on the rug upside down, “SPLAT!” Needless to say, it was a long night, we had to wait for another one to be cooked!

            Here’s another Hank Thompson beauty. This song reminds me of a grey haired that I once worked with. He used to say “Just because there’s snow on the roof, it doesn’t mean that there isn’t a fire in the furnace!”
            What a guy! Think he liked country music. It was shocking for me to move from a large City to a small rural place. Country guys were hilarious!

    1. I dont follow?

      Its going to cost the same regardless of which circuit the petitioner resides in.

      1. The 9th circus is a joke. They are the most overturned circuit in the US with a very bad track record for Supreme Court reviews. If they did their job properly in the first place there would be no reason for the appeal and the costs would be much lower, but doing their job properly would interfere with their ideology. In essence, they are hoping to financially grind anyone who opposes their politics.

        1. The communists on that court are never going to rule with honesty, and as the supreme court becomes more infested with the communist cancer rulings will be come less and less constitutional. Courts do not exist to write law yet that is what we have allowed them to do. Canada is even worse.

        2. Complete fake news. They are the third highest, not the highest.

          I also find it absolutely hilarious that people like you have NO ISSUE with Trump bringing up obviously flawed executive orders but like to harp on the 9th.

          1. Allan, your level of stupid is unquantifiable. I hope you are talking the zero who is un. If you are I apologize. If not, eat it.

          2. Who says I am? I was talking to you. My apologies that you bought the claim that the 9th has the highest rate of overturns and didnt check it with a few seconds of googling.

            Do you even know how the federal district court system works?

          3. Source? The top two links were blatently political groups (which, when searched for “groupname bias” came back as universally leftist) and none of the actual court links I could find listed Overturned in the first 3 pages.

    2. Great Story…and oh so similar to how things transpire here in the West.
      EASTERN BASTARDS making descisions on what, how, where, when, and why things should go in the West.

      Only difference is we out here would ABSOLuTELY NEVER get a decision that favours us from the SCOC.

      Nothing but Liberal appointed Swine.

      #WEXIT

    1. Yes he did. Andrew Scheer did not take the Conservatives to new heights – Justin Trudeau did, pretty-well all by himself. And if Scheer is actually brazen enough to claim that, it will surely be pointed-out that the previous Party leader (who will remain nameless) took the Conservatives to a Majority government. “Winning isn’t everything – it’s the only thing”; or maybe, “Success has many fathers; failure is an orphan.”

      And as to whether Scheer stays-on, the card-carrying members of the Conservative Party will decide that, come the next leadership review; and I wouldn’t like to bet on his chances.

      1. Exactly … The author makes a good case for stay, and correctly lambastes the media, all on the go-side. We will decide. Divisions are not all that stark. Do we need a review? Very much so, as the campaign sucked. New leader, maybe not now. But, if I were Liberal or green or NDP, I would be much more concerned about leadership. They have bigger problems.

    2. He Didnt FAIL…??
      LMAO….He TOTALLY BLEW it. Damned straight he Failed. Given the MASSIVE Cache of LIberal STUPIDITY over the past 4.5 years and he still didn’t win….?? and you and those like you believe he “didn’t fail”..?? Better start taking your Meds again boyos.

      He Basically CARBON COPIED PM Dickspanks policies…
      He kissed every Left wing cause celebre while standing up for NOTHING – aka SFA…..and where did that get him eh..?
      Fkn Nowhere.

      You DO NOT WIN BY APPEASING your Enemies. EVER.
      See Neville Chamberlain for classic Example.

      You all be like getting an Exemption from the Electric Chair only to be thrown into Solitary with no FOOD (ever again), cheering, thinking you beat the system as you slowly die of starvation.

      “Brilliant” Strategy.

    1. Wouldn’t kids dressed at Trump be making fun of Trump rather than showing support? I know someone who dressed as Greeta. It was very funny, but Greeta would probably not think so.

    1. Thank you for the post. One would want to think CBC management would see Ms. Simpson as the embarrassment that she is, but they don’t. The even gets to be promoted to substitute- host this politics show, but she comes across as so ham-fisted in her bias, it becomes an unintentional joke.

      A case in point. During the suborning of justice scandal, with JWR last spring, Mr. Simpson kept on boasting of receiving exclusive information from the Liberal government. She would preface any of this by saying “I have learned from my sources…”, over and over again ad nauseum. She was too thick headed to realize that she was essentially a mouthpiece for Gerald Butts’s PMO, all during the scandal. Perhaps that sad performance was enough for the corrupt CBC brass to have her cover the Scheer campaign. Corruption pure and simple.

    2. Wow….quite the sack of Bovine Excrement the CBC now has on the air.
      Only thing missing from this PMO WannaBe sow is fluorescent green hair – she most obviously checks all the other “progressive” requirements to work for our National Propagandists.

      #WEXIT

  1. Black Pigeon

    WEXIT

    Now that the dust has settled in Canada, regional alienation with the Liberal govt, threatens to again make the resurgence of separatist ambitions. As a “Post-national” country that is seeing its internal cohesion evaporating things look grim in the GWN.

    CANADA: The Post-National MEME with NO FUTURE?

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=ivCvNEwHKvE

    1. Trudeau’s “post national” remark, their consistent undermining of national identity (e.g. nothing traditional included as part of the 150th), and their anti-Western signals (e.g. no Liberals bothering to greet the truckers from Alberta) definitely provide fertile ground for separatism. Under Liberals, Canada has lost its centre — the essence of what has made us Canada.

      1. ” Canada has lost its centre — the essence of what has made us Canada.”

        Made made Canada canada was collectivism. The Liberals, to the extent they really do separate state and nation, have done us all a huge service.

    1. And given our current GLOBALIST Fascist gang of Criminals “leading” the country, dont even think about new Regulations on Water Testing…that would go against their ultimate OBjecteive.

      The “sustainable” Earth with < 1 Billion souls.
      As with Sewer dumps in Montreal and Victoria – they could give a shit.

  2. Global warming alert! Cold across Blackie’s Canada today, and its going to get colder with snow on the way. Hope Blackie is warm enough as he flies back on his government jet from surfing in B.C. In related news, CTV reports that the federal government will have to buy a new fleet of corporate jets to ferry Blackie and his cabinet ministers around the world.

  3. Blackie is staying in B.C. today surfing. He is so cool and wonderful. I hope he is having a good time. I’m sure Gerald Butts is looking after things for him.

  4. OH Dear, Liberal Green policy now hurting BC. BC did the right thing supporting Sambo and the Liberals/NDP/Green Communists. Perfect. The Commies are turning out the lights in Western Canada.
    $36-billion Pacific NorthWest LNG project by Petronas Bhd CANCELLED

    Nexen’s $28-billion Aurora LNG project CANCELLED

    Exxon Mobil Corp.’s $25-billion West Coast Canada LNG CANCELLED

    AltaGas Ltd. Douglas Channel LNG project CANCELLED
    Its not easy being green.

    1. Watcher
      At what time will the $ cost of these failed projects be accounted for? As you accurately pointed out the cancelled LNG projects in BC amounts to 100’s of billions. The cost to the BC and Canadian public has to have a $ figure placed on it. During the past two federal election campaigns I challenged candidates to do just that, particularly, the Greens. What public good was deferred or most likely lost? The Canadian energy industry surely dropped the ball by failing to point out that Canada could have reduced carbon output by replacing coal consumption in foreign markets. The environmental movement to stop Alberta export of energy is uniquely Canadian compared to all other international jurisdictions.

      I no longer think the West’s position in Canada will ever change. Wexit is real and has my support. The upcoming split has both cultural, political and most important economic reasons. As much as easterners will hate being exposed for the reality of their treatment of the West it has to happen. Western Canadians have to have the hard facts of what they pay to be called Canadians. My hope is that Jason Kenney starts pealing the onion and clearly explains what money goes where. What will be exposed will be ugly and the standard accusations of inflaming separation in the West will be made. While many Westerners had a visceral reaction to the last elections results they did not have all the facts to explain their unease and distrust of the federal government. Focusing solely on equalization is short sighted. The amount of money taken by the feds and used to subsidize eastern companies and institutions to the detriment of Western Canadian competitors is massive. The obvious example being the national dairy marketing board. The forced movement of the national space agency to Montreal. The billions of $’s funneled to Bombardier over 40 years in grants and loans that were later written off. The CF18 maintenance contract that was sent east when Winnipeg had the best price. The list goes on and can fill a book. It is a systemic process.

      This reality must be exposed as the Wexit movement matures towards a separation vote. That process will be initiated, crafted, written and conducted by Westerners.

      1. looks good on BC. Now Kenney needs to shut off BC gas pipelines crossing into Alberta. Albertans need to blockade BC and Eastern Canada until Alberta gets some concessions, and withdraw from all Ottawa programs. Kenney has not got the message that he was elected to defend Alberta not promote Canadian Communism.

        1. Kenney wants to be PM. Pipeline shutdown Not gonna happen, as a consequence.

          With Scheers future very much in doubt, Kenney won’t muck up that chance. Certainly since the main competitor is Ultra Red Tory McKay

        2. We need to:
          COAST LOCK BC
          Nothing moves EAST across our Railways and Hi-ways.
          Lets see how long it takes Horgan and his ECO – Commies to decide that a YVR Harbour quickly filling up with hunreds of Container ships with CHINESE CRAP destined for the EAST..is probably not a GOOD thing..??

          Wouldn’t take much to accomplish.
          But is there any STEEL in Edmonton – that is the question. Time for talk is over IMO, long overdue for some concrete action.

      1. They are the Largest Exporter of Coal from N. America to China. I have seen 250-300 car Trains rolling into Kamloops and it seems there’s at least 3-4 of them per day.

        Hypocrisy writ large.
        My question is who in the US is paying Horgan and his Green Party mouthpiece..??

    1. Don’t forget the P on the end. The pedophiles want to be associated with other proclivity rights groups. Let’s let them be inclusive.

    1. “October 4, 2019: Reader Tips”

      Maybe Kate accidentally set her calendar back by one.

      🙂

  5. I took a look at Sun New’s coverage of the Edmonton Wexit rally…Oh God. What a bunch of yahoos. Hopeless. Clearly nothing was learned from the failure of Alberta’s ’80s separatists. People wearing Make Alberta Great Again hats FFS.

    1. Were you there..??
      If not why not.?
      I will be at the Nov 16 one in Calgary..bet on it.
      ….and I’m thinking it will be a much larger turnout than Edm.

  6. Antifa, again:
    “A 24-year-old man who participated with other masked Antifa supporters in attacking conservatives at a June demonstration in Portland was sentenced Friday to nearly six years in prison for an assault with a metal baton that left a man’s head deeply lacerated.

    Gage Halupowski pleaded guilty to second-degree assault for the attack that left cuts on the victim’s head which required 25 staples to close.

    After the assault, police saw Halupowski collapse his metal baton and conceal it in his pants, FOX 12 Oregon reported.

    Authorities say Halupowski attacked Adam Kelly as Kelly was attempting to help another man who’d been assaulted.”

    1. Watcher -12 Degrees below normal averages forecast for a good chunk of 2 weeks here. Nothing to see . Move on.

  7. Boy when Blackie orders his loyal media to trash the Conservatives while he is surfing in B.C., they really follow orders. A press conference was held today by Hitler Doug Ford and Mayor John Muhammad Tory, to announce new transit projects. Of course the questions to Ford was should Scheer give up the leadership, gay marriage, and should the federal Conservatives get rid of social conservatives.

  8. Media have just reported that Elizabeth May is stepping down as Green Party leader. Watch for E.M. worship in the corporate media.

    1. I heard it on the grapevine that she is going to be the Speaker of the House. Anyone know if this is confirmed? She was breathless and tired on the campaign trail, now she can be a breathless and tired Madam Speaker. Nice gig, comes with housing and a weekend cabin. She can help out the new Green Party replacement. Lotsa boozy parties on the horizon. Hic!

  9. Elizabeth May has handed in her notice to quit as Green Party leader, after once again failing to make the party something other than a parking lot for shy Liberal voters. After all the hype the Greens only picked up one more seat in New Brunswick. Everywhere else the median voter still thought Justin would look better at the breakfast table than Liz.

    Liz claims to have promised her daughter that 2019 would be her last election as Green Party leader. If you believe that, I have a nearly-new light rail system in Ottawa to sell you.

  10. My quiet, peaceful, mostly crime-Free community has made the National News.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/01/us/orinda-shooting.html

    5 people MURDERED, and many more injured in Halloween AirBnB house party. Seems as though a 100 or so BLACK folks rented a home in Orinda on Halloween and mass murder ensued. But the REAL story is that every outraged local resident is now called a RACIST … for pointing out this crime was committed by OUTSIDERS … by *gasp*!!! … black people. I have been labeled a RACIST by arguing that such a mass murder is “possible” in our lilywhite community, but not as “probable” as in the black community. RACIST! RACIST! I’ve been called by writers on the Nextdoor app. For pointing out FACT.

    FACTS are really stubborn things, but never seem to take hold in the brains (such as they are) of woke leftist stooges. FACT is … that mass murder has NEVER taken place in my community where the price of rent and home ownership forms an impenetrable FIREWALL against thug culture taking hold in our community. But AirBnB pierced that firewall by renting a home to undesireables … with a sadly predictable outcome.

    And yes, this was an invite-only, 100% BLACK – attended Party.

    Approx. 2% of our community demographic is black. These blacks are: Golden State Warriors, Oakland Raiders, and Executives in multiple Bay Area businesses. There are ZERO thug, gang-banging, blacks in our community – hence no mass murder. Until AirBnB decided to “transform” our community.

    1. The demographics of the story didn’t make it up to Alberta. Gee, I wonder why?

      Skin colour doesn’t matter, culture does. If gang-bangers host a party, it’s not a stretch to expect some bang-bang. Personally, I’d love a chance to have dinner with Thomas Sowell or Justice Thomas.

  11. The lizard queen has resigned! I knew she wouldn’t stay around but wow didn’t expect it so soon.

    Misogyny aside, the women who attack predominately male occupations (under the guise of climate change?) and wonder why they get push back might just be clinically retarded.
    Bosson, a psychologist quoted says we’re like rats on the titanic. Terrorized. And we’re digging in our heals against change even though the world will be “untenable” for humans in a few years.
    Well gee, why does McKenna have 3 kids aged 10, 13, and 15?

    1. Bosson obviously a fawning cheerleader for that IMBECILE.
      …”the world will be untenable” – that may be, but it wont be from Climate Change, more likely Islamic Fascism. Led by Globalist LIberal – Democrat Human Elitist garbage such as her and her master Mr Butts.

  13. I was eating breakfast with my teenage Granddaughter the other day

    and I asked her, What special day is it in Canada tomorrow?” .

    Without skipping a beat she said, “It’s Prime Minister Day!” .

    She’s smart, so I asked her “What does Prime Minister Day mean?” .

    I was waiting for something about the Trudeau’s or Harper etc.

    She replied, “Prime Ministers Day is when the Prime Minister steps

    out of the Prime Minister’s residence at 22 Sussex Drive, and if he

    sees his shadow, we have 4 more years of Bull Shit.”
