If It Weren’t For Fake Hate

Continued…

We already knew that the “fine people” hoax was based on the lie that Trump called white supremacists “fine people,” instead of, as he did, condemning them. But until yesterday, we didn’t know that the white supremacists who marched in Charlottesville and whose protest led to the death of one person were bused there on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s dime, and were organized to be there by an SPLC “informer.”

This sounds like a job for Warren Kinsella.

Can Canadian Conservatives Find a Backbone?

In Britain, it appeared that Nigel Farage and his Reform Party were sailing towards a victory at the next election in a few years. Many right-of-centre Britons had reservations about Farage but realized they had no other way to effect change in their nation. Recently though, a gentleman named Rupert Lowe launched a new party called Restore Britain and many expect them to capture a large amount of support in the coming months and years, sweeping Farage into the dustbin of history.

In Canada, many have questioned if Pierre Poilievre is a real conservative and not merely a placeholder as the junior member of the Uniparty. These suspicions are rising as Poilievre has chosen to criticize, rather than praise, Jamil Jivani for his recent actions to help resolve Canadian/American relations.

Can Canada’s Post-Secondary Institutions Get Past Their Foreign Money Addiction?

Natasha Mrkic Subotic, employed at Capilano University in B.C., has written an op-ed about the new state of post-secondary education:

With new global attraction strategies, Canada is trying to draw talent from abroad but neglecting the systems that nurture our own youth.

B.C.’s institutions, and their counterparts across the country, are confronting a financial reckoning more than a decade in the making.

What comes next may reshape how Canadians learn, work and access opportunities for decades.

The seeds of today’s crisis were planted as far back as 2011, when the federal government signalled a bold new direction. Economic plan 2011 called for a comprehensive International education strategy. This direction was amplified in 2013 when the global markets plan identified international education as one of 22 priority sectors where Canada held a competitive advantage.

Of course, given her own biases, she spins things in a very particular way. There is an entirely different point of view on this subject.

“This is a mind virus.”

Yes it is. And if you find yourself dipping a toe in this fever swamp, step back. Touch grass. Touch snow.

The Start of a Hi-Tech Powered Dark Age?

This AI cat video is an example of the latest state of AI videos. While most certainly amusing, there’s a darker side to what this technology could be used for.

Imagine if dozens, then hundreds, then thousands of videos start appearing on social media, showing police brutalizing black people or Muslims. Realize that 100% of these videos would be fake, but the average person won’t know that. What do you think would result? Who would do such a dastardly thing, you might be wondering?

I’ve long felt that [some of] the elites want the rest of us fighting with each other, rather than closely examining them. That’s who would launch such a propaganda campaign and they have more than enough money & resources to do it.

Is Sanity Returning to the Ontario Housing Market?

Interesting times in Ontario:

Ontario legislators passed Bill 60 on Monday, a sweeping omnibus bill designed to accelerate housing supply and reform the province’s rental-market infrastructure.

The legislation moves the needle on affordability by overhauling how landlords and developers navigate tenancy rules and development approvals.

Housing minister Rob Flack framed the changes as essential to restoring market balance. “With more supply comes lower rents,” he said during the final legislative vote.

The bill targets bottlenecks across multiple fronts: accelerating Landlord and Tenant Board hearings, standardizing development charges across municipalities, and streamlining zoning approvals.

Not everyone is happy. If you live in Ontario and can share more insight, it would be greatly appreciated.
