I returned home this morning from a round trip to Virginia last week, where I was offline for much of the time. Many thanks to our guest bloggers here for holding down the fort! I left Salem at 1pm Sunday and made it to Davidson, SK last night around 11pm (over 3,000km in 36 hours) and thus need a few hours to catch up.

The trip was uneventful – save for a minivan that chose to cross my path on US460 in Virginia, forcing a high speed chicane around his front, through the intersection and into the opposing side of the divided highway, where I pulled safely to a stop in their left hand turn lane. If you ever find yourself trying to decide between a Subaru Outback and some other brand of small car or SUV, buy the Outback. Trust me.

After years of outright lies and gaslighting from media and the authorities combined with a police force that can’t be trusted to do their job it was only a matter of time before there was anarchy in the streets.

Telegraph- Violence erupts in Southport after child killings

Violent protests broke out in Southport on Tuesday night as hundreds of demonstrators clashed with police following the deadly knife attack on children attending a Taylor Swift-themed holiday club.

A mob gathered outside a mosque, hurling bricks, masonry and fireworks at officers, amid claims that police were not telling the truth about the suspect’s background and his motives, with rumours swirling on social media.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me day after day after day….? Alberta’s wind power flatlines again this week, hitting 1 megawatt out of a capacity of 4748.

Watch for yourself – I’ve been watching for the past hour as wind has stayed in the single digits. And Alberta’s about 500 megawatts short of record demand. I wonder if they’re be another grid alert tonight?

Edmonton Sun columnist Lorne Gunter quoted the Pipeline Online story regarding wind’s failure in Alberta on July 16 in his July 19 column.

The best.

Zerohedge- Thieves In Seattle Targeting EV Charging Stations Has Reached “Epidemic Proportions”

In the last 12 months alone, thieves have stolen at least 100 EV charging cables across the city in pursuit of the small amounts of copper within that can be sold as scrap.

Sun- Ontario only province that locks down inmates due to staff shortages

The lawsuits covers a period up to 2017, but the most recent data from the province shows that 81 per cent of inmates in provincial jails are awaiting trial and presumptively innocent.

The lockdowns strip inmates of basic human rights and violate their Charter rights to life, liberty and security of the person, and the right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment, the lawsuits allege.

“During lockdowns, prisoners suffer from a deprivation of health care, privacy, dignity, security and hygiene that violate even the basic standards applicable to prisoners in the correctional institutions,” lawyers write in a statement of claim.

What Really Happened: Lockdown Until Vaccination

Four years later, many people are investigating how our lives were completely upended by a pandemic response. Over my time on the case, I’ve heard countless theories. It was Big Tech, Big Pharma, Big Finance, the Green New Deal, the CCP, Depopulation, Get Trump, Mail-In Ballots, and so on.

There is evidence to back them all.

The problem with having so many pieces of evidence and so many theories is that people can too easily get thrown off track, going on wild goose chases. It’s too much to follow through consistently, and this allows the perpetrators to hide their deeds.

For such situations, we can take recourse to Occam’s razor: the best explanation is the simplest one that explains the maximum number of facts. This is what I offer here.
