1. I guess they could use some convoy!

2. A serving of gourmet chips with a bullshit dip. Newfies no doubt will think “Awesome!!!”

3. 97% vaccinated and no one thinks that there is something insidious going on?? WOW!

   1. Well, with that rate, 97%, if the vaxx turns real bad, I’ll have a lot of leg room.

4. Govt: We’re going to lift our boots off up your necks by half an inch. Aren’t we benevolent? Aren’t you going to thank us?

   Canadians: Thank you!

   Karens: No, this means more Covid! No! Give us more boot! We beg you!

   Govt: … Do we even know which group of people is dumber at this point?

5. Be happy enough with sports.
   How about some synchronized walking with a pinch of gymnastics?

6. The brave ones died at Beaumont-Hamel on 01 July 1916.

   1. Funny thing is there is some truth to that. WWI killed off much of the British Empire’s brave and best males. That it did not fully recover. Much of the problems today can be trace back to the that beginning.

      An aside I know it is funny look at the British upper class as a joke. But the males and sons of the upper class had horrible loss rates in battle. It was the British army’s officers ethos to lead from the front.

      1. The late Anthony Price had, in one of his series of spy novels, a character saying something to the effect of “my dad said that the problem today is that the best of both sides, labour and management, were killed off in the war”. I rather think he was right. And too many of the remaining top men (and a few women) were wiped out in WW II. The late Dudley Pope was rather scathing about the competence of the British civil servants in WW II in his books “Convoy” and “Decoy”. And Helen Forrester in her book “Two Pence to Cross the Mersey” also had comments on the attitudes of the civil service to the scrubbers who had serious heath issues and needed to be relieved from their jobs.
         On the other hand, there were civilians who performed brilliantly, with little or no recognition. Helen Forrester talks of her younger brother who would be out searching for bodies (or, more accurately, heads) so the casualty count would be accurate. And a civilian employee of Shell won the George Cross for going into a tank farm and removing incendiaries.

      2. I wasn’t joking. A friend of mine from Newfoundland explained that many sons of Newfoundland’s leading families served as ordinary soldiers alongside the fishermen and farmers who filled the ranks (not everybdoy can be an officer). He said that one action ended Newfoundland’s chances of becoming its own country because of its small population, Newfoundland couldn’t absorb that loss in men and future leaders. Note Newfoundland’s population today is around 500K

7. The two covid deaths made me think of this old Newfie joke.
   NEWFOUNDLANDS WORST AIR DISASTER
   Cessna plane crashed into a cemetery: The small two-seater Cessna 152 plane crashed into a cemetery early this afternoon in central Newfoundland. Newfoundland search and rescue workers have recovered over 300 bodies so far and expect that number to climb as digging continues into the night.

8. No dancing?

   Criminy, Newfs, what are you, Baptists?

9. Maybe they’re worried that dancing might lead to “it’s not related to the vaccine” heart attacks. /sarc

10. I once heard of ‘dancing’ defined as: a naval engagement without loss of seamen.

    1. “Communal sexercise”

    2. I spent my freshman year at a church-affiliated college in a small town not far from Edmonton.

       In the same town was a Bible school. I sometimes visited there as some people I grew up with were students there. One night, I was speaking with one of their classmates. She was shocked that I attended that “den of inquity” (i. e., the college) because it allowed–get this!–dancing!

       And that’s how many people at the Bible school saw us. To them, sex standing up led to dancing.

       1. Well, I certainly wish that had been the case. I did a lot of dancing when I went to University but it led to very litle sex.

11. Well the science of libtards has always been based on snivel servants’ feelings, nothing more than feelings. I get the sense the snivel servants and their masters are starting to well-panic-I mean bleed from the eyes in panic. Good. Can’t catch covid if you can’t leave your house after 8, liberal science in Quebec. Can’t catch covid if you wear a mask except when you are stuffing food in your mouth, covid is afraid of calories. Covid is afraid of music but will attack if you attempt to dance. Goodness me that virus is smarter than most liberal voters.
