Paleolithic Math

Who would have thought that smoke signals were evidence of indigenous mathematics. To conclude otherwise is apparently an example of prejudice engendered by enlightenment thinking.

“One interesting example that we are currently investigating is the use of chiral symmetry to engineer a long-distance smoke signalling technology in real time,” Professor Ball says.

To create and understand these signals, you have to be a skilled practical mathematician, Professor Ball says.

“Theory and mathematics in Mithaka society were systematised and taught intergenerationally. You don’t just somehow pop up and suddenly start a chiral signalling technology.

“Professional Smear Merchant” Means Never Having To Say You’re Sorry

Somewhere up there, Kathy Shaidle is pissing herself.

And then, on October 7, multiculturalism breathed its last. As word spread – as we learned that Hamas terrorists had invaded progressive farm communities in Israel, and raped and tortured and killed hundreds of innocents, and kidnapped scores more – something else happened, here in Canada.

Maxime Bernier: Kinsella2019 would no doubt call Kinsella2024 a bigot and a racist.

Canada’s Minister Of Muslim Affairs

Showers more money on the slave-trading nation of Sudan.

Canada is committing another $132.2 million in humanitarian funding to help people displaced by the violent conflict in Sudan that has been raging for the past year, the government announced Friday.

The conflict has killed thousands of civilians, forced millions of people to flee within Sudan and to neighbouring African countries and created one of the world’s worst hunger crises. The United Nations’ World Food Program has warned about a third of the country’s population, or 18 million people, face acute hunger, with five million on the verge of starvation.

“The humanitarian situation is dire,” Canada’s International Development Minister Ahmed Hussen told Global News in an interview.

As Long As There Are No Bouncy Castles

We’re okay with it.

Sun- When protesters appear to wear suicide vests, it’s a problem

“At the Al Quds Day rally in Toronto, they chanted for Intifada, which were periods of terrorism including suicide bombings,” Independent Spadina Fort York MP Kevin Vuong posted on X. “So there was no ambiguity, a ‘peaceful protestor’ cosplayed as a suicide bomber wearing a mock suicide vest. When people show you who they are, believe them.”

Herply Werply Flerply!

What’s up with renaming an airport to something that sounds like Yosemite Sam swearing or the ramblings of the Swedish Chef? Are the linguists that come up with these names dyslexic?

“The renaming of Sandspit Airport to K’il Kun Xidgwangs Daanaay is a significant step in the collaboration between Canada and the Haida Nation,” said President of the Council of the Haida Nation Gaagwiis (Jason Alsop) in a news release for the announcement.

“Engaging in initiatives like this fosters trust and respect, critical elements in renewing the collective vision of Canada as a nation that includes all of us.”

Population growth as an economic driver is the most ponzi of all ponzi schemes.

Non-European immigrants to the UK are far more likely to be long-term unemployed or economically inactive, especially those from the Middle East, South Asia & North Africa. In England & Wales, 27% of working age immigrants from the Middle East have never worked. That is more than 5x the figure for the native-born (5%).

In total there are 707,000 working age immigrants who have never worked, 1.2% of the entire population of England & Wales. All of these figures exclude students.

How were so many duped into believing that the key to economic success was mass unskilled immigration from the third world?

Our Chinese-Installed Government In Ottawa

Thus, nothing will happen;

A military veteran who spent 20 years in uniform, Lieutenant Colonel Huajie Xu now lives on a quiet street in Winnipeg.

But he did not serve in Canada’s armed forces.

Instead, he was a member of China’s People’s Liberation Army, according to records obtained by Global News.

Before arriving in Canada in 2021, Xu worked at the military academy of the Chinese cyber warfare department that hacks Canadians and steals their secrets.

Chinese state-sponsored cyber attacks have targeted Canadian companies, activists and government agencies.

[…]

Hundreds of pages of records filed in court indicate that Xu joined the PLA in 1998 and became a member of the Chinese Communist Party in 2001.

He earned a degree in Infantry Command from Jinan Army College, and a Masters in Military Education Training from the PLAIEU.

Between 2011 and 2013, Xu was trained by the Russian military in Moscow. Upon returning to China, he became an instructor at the PLAIEU until retiring in 2018.

In 2021, he applied to immigrate to Canada. Despite acknowledging his military career in his application form, he was accepted as a permanent resident.

Immigration, Citizenship and Refugees Canada declined to answer when asked by Global News why it had approved Xu as an immigrant.

Terry Glavin: This guy got permanent resident status before he even set foot in Canada.

Thirsty Proletarians

First there was the collapse of the electricity grid, then the collapse of the railway network, and now the water is running out. Yet few South African voters seem able to make a connection between these events and a political philosophy of nationalizing the mines, banks and monopoly industry. They cannot fathom that a mix of African superstition, tribalism and Marxism-Leninism is nothing less than toxic.

The shortages, which have lasted nearly two weeks, have affected some 50% of Johannesburg Water’s supply area, officials said. The South African city has a population of almost 6 million people.

Businesses have been hit hard, and several hospitals have been affected. Nurses at one medical center told local media that they were not able to wash their hands.

All Cultures Are Equal

Except yours.

For the fifth consecutive year, there will be no St. Patrick’s Day parade in the nation’s capital. Organizers were denied a parade permit, according to CTV News Ottawa.

“We could not receive our parade permit due to a number of events happening throughout the city that would use up police resources,” Irish Festival co-chair Tracey Dixon told the outlet.

“We’re hoping to try again next year,” she added. […]

One “event” happening in Ottawa that is likely to “use up police resources” on the March 15 weekend are the weekly pro-Hamas rallies held in the city.

Inconvenient History

Paleolithic cultures necessarily live in perfect harmony not only with nature, but with each other, right? If there is any conflict in such cultures, it must be due to residential schools or the 60s sweep or some such. So what explains deadly conflict that occurred over a century prior to European settlement, the memories of which continued to create divisions between aboriginal communities well into the present?

They show elders relaying their tales of ambush and murder while in the midst of daily activities, cutting up a seal or cleaning fish on the beach.

One elder tells of a slaughter so extensive that the Inuit called the place where the rotting bodies were left Annarnituq – Bloated Island. It’s visible in the distance as a boy runs toward it through the wild grass.

There is enough residual enmity that people in the area convened in 2011 for a ceremony initiated by Cree trapper Ron Sheshamush to try to heal the rift once and for all.
