How Dare You Notice Things

New Rules Protected Class 11 Comments

A tale of a schoolgirls’ tennis team, a locker room, and a cross-dressing coach:

The reprimand mentioned above – or rather, reprimands, because, well, what’s behaviour without a pattern? – did not seem to deter Mr Yates. Nor did the provision of private changing facilities, typically used by sports officials, including coaches. Direct appeals from the girls also failed to discourage him from parading around their locker room in a bra-and-panties ensemble and various states of undress. Such that the girls were left in little doubt that their cross-dressing coach was, as one board member put it, “still fully a man.” And all while seeking out details of the girls’ menstruation cycles and their preferences in underwear.

I think you’re supposed to pretend it isn’t happening.

Alternative Subsidy Great Moments In Socialism nannystate Protected Class 14 Comments

Central planning is like a washing machine cycle that never ends:

Step 1: Subsidize production.

Step 2: When production exceeds consumer demand, subsidize the losses.

Step 3: When the losses become terminal, pay producers to exit the industry.

Step 4: When prices rise, go back to Step 1.

The first stage of the production-cut program is voluntary. Those that agree to participate must leave the industry for a minimum of five years. Two-thirds of the cost will be covered by Farm Income Stabilization Insurance, a taxpayer-funded provincial program that, when market prices are low, covers the costs of production. One-third will be paid by Les Éleveurs de porcs du Québec.

This will mean that every producer who remains in the sector must pay $2.86 to the union for every hog they sell, to cover producers’ share of the expense, according to reporting by La Presse. The pool of cash will be used to pay producers who leave.

“We understand we need the taxpayer helping us‚ but at the same time we bring lots of money, too,” Mr. Roy said.

This is intentional: part of the “nudge” to make commercial flight so painful and expensive that the average deplorable begins turning away and the industry shrinks to accommodate only the worthy elites.

Politically cleaner than banning commercial air travel, (as they did plastic straws) There’s more than one way to skin a carbon footprint. They’re doing it to oil and gas, they’re doing it to agriculture.

Try seeing it all from 10,000 ft (while you still can).

The Arts: A system in which taxpayers help rich people hang pictures for their friends

The revelation this spring that [Remai Modern] final cost tops $111 million, more than twice the original estimate from when it was first proposed, will resonate for most taxpayers, as will the $6 million a year in city funding.

But the art gallery’s worth should be measured beyond its price tag — its value to Saskatoon is more relevant.

Five years ago the gallery earned Saskatoon a spot in the New York Times’ top tourist destinations in the world. USA Today followed suit the following year by recommending its readers visit the Paris of the Prairies chiefly because of the gallery.

So you can argue all day that the money spent on building the art gallery will never be worth it, but you cannot reasonably claim that no value was derived from it in terms of recognition for the city.

The “cannot reasonably claim” value: two American travel writer mentions at the low, low entry price of $55,500,000.00 apiece.

And then, there’s the nepotism. And the fact that it’s ugly. And the millions to maintain it ain’t ever going away…

Get the hell out of Saskatoon while you still can, my friends.

From the comments: I guess nothing quite “says” Saskatoon like a good stack of double-wides.

It’s not a bureaucracy, it’s a crime family;

Revenue Commissioner Bob Hamilton misled MPs in under-reporting the number of Canada Revenue Agency employees implicated in fraudulent claims for pandemic benefits. Hamilton claimed there were “not very many, obviously,” though the Agency now confirms hundreds are under investigation: “I’m afraid ‘not very many’ is not a sufficient answer.’”

If you go by what the leftist corporate media are saying, conspiracy theories are the exclusive province of conservatives. Jump into the “rabbit hole” of residential school controversy, however, and conspiracy theories abound.

Not one reporter even thought to ask questions such as “If 215 children had disappeared at the school, why is there no historical record of even a single Kamloops indigenous parent – or any parent anywhere in Canada – claiming that their child had failed to return from school?”, “Where is your evidence of murderous priests, nuns and secret burials?” Why are you not releasing the radar operator’s report, that you promised to release?” or Why are the RCMP refusing to investigate what indigenous leaders are calling a “crime”, and why are the RCMP refusing to properly secure what indigenous leaders are calling a “crime scene” and do at least basic excavations?

Throughout most of the pandemic, were not treatments like this considered to be the province of lunatic fringe, tinfoil hat conspiracy theorists? Note that the article validates direct clinical experience in this case as opposed to the usual kneejerk condemnation of any treatment that does not take the triple somersault double blind study route. How times have changed.

One can now imagine how much easier Covid could have been to manage if the medical central planners and their media lackeys had promoted the use of disinfectant nasal rinses instead of insisting that, short of vaccination and Tylenol, there was absolutely no treatment whatsoever for Covid.

The company McGhee called was Vancouver-based Ondine Biomedical, which created Steriwave, a technology that involves putting a disinfecting liquid into the nose and then activating it with lights attached to probes to kill viruses lurking in the respiratory system.

Interesting juxtaposition when you look at some past comments from the front man of Kiss. One must, presumably, only engage in the treatments that earn his approval.

No matter what you think about Scott Adams’ recent comments, he does highlight a disturbing trend regarding race relations in our culture. What SDA readers have known for a long time is that the criteria for determining hate speech tends to be, well, just a little bit subjective. Take, for instance, the Quebec government’s recent stand on non-French speaking immigrants.

To paraphrase Adams, the Quebec government is effectively proclaiming, “Stay the f*** away from us!”.

So where’s the outrage? All I hear is crickets.

Legault’s nationalist Coalition Avenir Quebec party was re-elected with a huge majority in October, partly on a platform of protecting French as the dominant language in the province of 8.7 million people. His speech to the legislature Wednesday laid out his priorities for his second term, including a plan to bar almost all economic immigrants who don’t speak French by 2026.

When bedlamites want you fired:

Kara Lynne, the now-ex community manager of [games distributor] Limited Run, was reportedly fired following complaints from a trans activist on Twitter who had dissected Lynne’s social media history. Jonathan “Jessica” Blank, a trans-identified male better known in the My Little Pony fan community as Purple Tinker, published a Twitter thread on January 6 accusing Lynne of “transphobia” and tagging Limited Run Games in an apparent effort to have her penalised.

The so-called infractions Blank levelled against Lynne included that she had been following popular conservative social media account Libs of TikTok, and had posted a tweet expressing opposition to self-identification laws in 2016. Other alleged examples of transphobia included that Lynne had expressed support for the upcoming Hogwarts Legacy video game.

One of these.

If prosecutors had devoted half the resources they must have consumed in an attempt to deny bail to Tamara Lich, maybe this guy would still be in custody and that police officer might still be alive.

A man charged in the shooting death of a Southwestern Ontario OPP officer was released on bail six months ago while facing charges including assaulting a police officer and possessing a handgun, court records show.

McKenzie, of no fixed address at the time, was arrested on Dec. 1, 2021, and charged with a dozen offences including assault with a weapon, assaulting a peace officer, assault, possession of a firearm without a licence, carrying a concealed weapon, mischief and possession of counterfeit money.
