What Would We Do Without Experts?
If you think they’re trying to drive the population insane, you may be right.
I Want A New Country
Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe has asked a former Saskatchewan Party MLA and former MP who recently was a part of the Wexit movement to co-host “in-house” meetings about increasing Saskatchewan autonomy.
Allan Kerpan — who served in opposition with the Saskatchewan Party and was also a Reform MP — and veteran SP MLA Lyle Stewart (Thunder Creek) have been chosen by Moe to lead the closed-door meetings across the province this month.
“The premier has been speaking about some sort of independence from Ottawa for quite a while in terms of the economy,” Kerpan told the CBC’s Morning Edition host Ted Deller on Monday.

“But the staff member quickly expressed that they were more concerned about Jane having perceived Max as male.”

Ludwigshafen is most relevant to today’s discourse…
…because it is home to the largest integrated chemical complex in the world. Mere blocks away from the Casino lies the fence line delineating this staggering display of technical complexity and raw industrial might. With approximately 2,000 buildings and 200 production plants, BASF’s Ludwigshafen site is home to roughly a third of the company’s total global production. All told, nearly 20 billion pounds of stuff is made there every year, and that stuff serves as the starting material for countless global supply chains.
Last week, the Wall Street Journal published an important story about how sanctions on Russia – however justified the motivation to impose them might be – are beginning to backfire in ways Western leaders seem to have been unable to calculate in advance…
When Did Canadians Become a Herd of Ostriches?
Average Canadians who have chosen to ignore the rampant danger before them should truly be ashamed of themselves.
It’s Tuesday On Turtle Island
Biden’s America: Suffering at the pumps. Students cancel Justice Clarence Thomas. A Candace Owens video. Another January 6 lie.
Trudeau’s Canada: Justin’s CBC is outraged that a church doesn’t bow down to the gay mafia. The NDP and “people” that are pregnant. Rex Murphy writes about Tamara Lich. Dear Leader is burning jet fuel again. Today he heads for Toronto, where he will explain to his adoring fans, how he’s going to solve gun violence.
Woke Britain: The Scouts go Woke. The Drag Queens and Coke. My name is Muhammad, and this is my brother Muhammad and my other brother Muhammad. Top baby names in Britain.
Dutch Farmers are the New Kulaks
The Dutch government and the EU are demonizing Dutch farmers. Why?

Biden and NATO will fight Putin to the very last Ukrainian.
I spoke today with a long-time Ukrainian soldier & contact who's been in Donbas since 2014; he's now in a leadership role. He was wounded by 82mm mortar days ago & hospitalized. 2 pieces of shrapnel remain stuck in him. He confirmed Ukrainian forces are suffering huge casualties.

An Important Wake-Up Call for All Americans

Western Standard- Border restrictions for unvaccinated truck drivers continue wreaking havoc on farmers, consumers
“These restrictions are punishing farmers who can’t afford to ship their goods, and it’s punishing consumers at the grocery store with inflation. The farmers are reporting that these restrictions are the number one cause of inflation, right now.”
Krayden said during the beginning of the pandemic, there was a border exemption for agri-food shippers, because it was recognized as a critical part of Canada’s infrastructure.
But Krayden said that exemption for agri-food has “essentially been lost,” due to various restrictions that “are superseding the federal government’s own public safety regulations on agri-food being essential.”
The policy prohibiting unvaccinated foreign national truck drivers from entering Canada has been in place since January 15, 2022. The United States has an identical policy for truck drivers in place.
Krayden said the border restrictions have increased trucking rates by 30% to 50% over the last few months, which many farmers have said is leading to price gouging. “That is just one more cost they have to absorb with all the exorbitant inflation on their inputs,” she said.
