And What Was Your First Clue?

I bring educational news:

The educator in question, whose actual name has not been disclosed, took to social media to express his indignation at not being permitted to wear his false tail at work. “People wanna be straight up pearl clutching bitches,” he said, in a teacherly manner. Among images of stabbed and bleeding teddy bears, and while describing himself as a “butt-sniffing wolf bitch.”

Parents also suggested that a cross-dressing kindergarten teacher wearing mini-skirts, a dog collar and black fishnet stockings was, all things considered, a tad inappropriate.

Naturally, there’s more.

On Alberta, and maybe Saskatchewan, walking away

Brian Crossman: Alberta (and Saskatchewan?) Separation

From the column:

“The list of countries and empires that have broken up over that past several hundred years is not a short one. Sudan split into two countries by referendum in 2011. Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Egypt and Syria and many others. The Soviet Union, the British Empire are gone, the United States came close in 1861, and there is no promise that the republic will endure forever. Will Canada, or the world map look the same in 50 to 100 years? I’m betting not, and it seems pretty arrogant to think otherwise.”

Some may question why is this relevant to Saskatchewan? It is my understanding that recent polling showed support for separation a few weeks ago was 2 per cent higher in Saskatchewan than it is in Alberta. So it’s relevant.

Here’s a thought experiment which could turn into a column: If Alberta and possibly Saskatchewan were to separate – do they really need much of a military? To defend against who, the pot smokers of Vancouver? Do they need a navy? Nope. No water, unless they snag Prince Rupert and Kitimat – which could happen, if the rednecks invade the Left Coast. But even then, no real navy would be needed. Air force? Probably not much of one for that, either. Who are they going to bomb, Timmins, Ont? That’s a lot of money saved right there, on top of ditching equalization.

Ones And Zeroes

Money has to be the most marketable commodity, not lines of code on a hard drive. Investors in the latter are finding that out the hard way.

Bitcoin is now down 24% this year and remains roughly 47% below its October all-time high.

The largest failure so far this year has been Blockfills, a midsize prime broker that halted deposits and withdrawals earlier this month amid the decline in bitcoin prices.

 

Gradually, Then Suddenly

Now, factor in the crash coming to vacation condos in Mexico.

Featured Comment

There were lots of great comments to this post yesterday, but this one from ‘The Phantom’ really stood out:

“…showed as much fire over the gradual loss of your rights, the destruction of your economy, worsening of your quality of life, and the state sanctioned murder of your own people…”

If you mention any of those four things to most Canadians living in urban areas, they will look at you like you’re insane.

Fire? They don’t even NOTICE. They’ve never f-ing noticed, and I’ve been seeing this sh1t since I was maybe 25? 26? And everybody denies it all day long, every f-ing day.

You can’t get ahead in Canada. Not since 1979. I got ahead by moving to AMERICA, making a bunch of money, and then moving back -with money- to get me far enough up the ladder they couldn’t knock me off again.

Now of course not only you can’t get ahead, you can’t stay level. Slipping back, one handhold at a time. But they’re still denying it, every day. Elbows up, you know.

That’s why a hockey game matters to them but MAiD doesn’t make it to their radar. Or Covid, or payijng >50% taxes, or guys getting fined $750K for mentioning that there’s only XX and XY. Keeping up appearances, not stepping out of line, gotta fit in you know.

That’s why I live in the sticks and don’t talk to anybody. It’s better this way, my liver isn’t being destroyed one cell at a time by trying to fit in with idiots.

The Latest from México

This morning, on SiriusXM’s Patriot radio, Mike Slater had on his Breitbart colleague, Brandon Darby, who is a journalist focused on documenting the cartels.

Based on what Darby described in detail, this recent upsurge of violence in México can technically be blamed on Trump, but I don’t mean that in a bad way. The Trump Administration was fed up with the endless, decades long violence and corruption south of the border and decided to do something about it. Yes, there is going to be ongoing violence for a period of time, but what’s the alternative? Let El Mencho and other gangsters control the people of México forever?! According to the likes of many Democrats and Canadians I know, that is the preferable route because actually trying to regain the rule of law is “too extreme”.

When good men & women refuse to stand up to bad actors, society deteriorates. This is what has happened in Canada, in Vancouver, in California, and in San Francisco. To date, the majority of folks in these places have refused to stand up against the destructive forces. If one “dares” disagree with this deterioration, years can be spent trying to fight back, or one can leave and find sanity elsewhere.

A Hard Pill to Swallow

This recent post by an American who regularly worked in Canada caught my eye.

As a Canadian who has lived & worked in America for about a dozen years, I wanted to share some thoughts of my own. Before I say anything though, I need to state the obvious: If you’re a small “c” conservative, an SDA regular, etc., I am NOT talking about YOU!!!  I’ve met several of you in person and you’re all outstanding people! Kate is one of the most amazing women I’ve ever had the good fortune to meet! OMG if all Canadian women were even 50% as based & pragmatic as her, our home & native land would be thriving and not a WEF / Laurentian Elite psychological lab experiment.

With that clearly stated, let me share some thoughts and you all can let me know if I’m completely wrong, exaggerating, or just maybe onto something . . .

Puerto Vallarta Erupts… Developing

Shelter in Place: Edmontonians are stranded in Puerto Vallarta after cartel violence erupted following reports that Mexican forces killed alleged cartel leader El Mencho.

Guadalajara Airport chaos.

@TheAffairs51513 – Footage Shows CJNG Cartel Gunmen Setting Truck and Trailer Ablaze on Puerto Vallarta Highway.

More chaos here on the account of @LaPaginaNegraMX·

Spreading violence: … vehicles and businesses being set on fire in Mexico’s major tourist centers Cancún, Playa del Carmen, Tulum, and Cozumel.

NYT: Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as “El Mencho,” was the head of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel and widely regarded as one of the country’s most violent criminal figures.

I just learned I have family members there at the moment, so pretty concerned.
