OMG this is ridiculous:
Conservative Party members have just voted down an amendment to the party constitution that would only allow citizens to vote in nominations.
Non-Citizens are able to buy party memberships and vote in nomination races.
One Conservative MP, Brad Redekopp, spoke in favour of the…

IMO any Western Canadian who thinks that the federal Tories are their solution to a better future is seriously deluding themselves.
An Irish-Canadian gentleman from Montréal shaped my political views from a young age. His name was Pat Burns and he was a prominent voice on the airwaves of Vancouver for many years. Here’s a snapshot of his career: Hotline Radio Talkshow from December 1986.
Bonus: Two of my favourite Canadian vloggers, Kelsi Sheren & Tajana Cekic, have a great conversation.

Grok reports Poilievre’s leadership review will come in at around 80% approval, based on chatter. If any of our regulars are on site, your feedback is welcome.
Wow. In the Epstein emails DOJ dropped, Jeffrey sent himself emails memorializing a fight he had with Bill Gates. In it he says that Bill Gates got STD’s from Russian hookers, and then asked Jeffrey for antibiotics that Bill could secretly give to Melinda without her noticing. 😳
Giles Coren has lived a pampered life in [No Longer Great] Britain. He recently wrote a hate-screed against America and shared it on X, where he was absolutely decimated. The gents at Podcast of the Lotus Eaters rightfully mocked him relentlessly.

On the heels of a statewide mandate requiring all school bus purchases in New York State be electric by 2027, parents in the Lake Shore Central School District are speaking out, claiming some bus drivers are turning the heat down, or off completely, in an attempt to conserve battery life on their electric school buses.
WIVB News 4 has received several calls from concerned parents in the school district, which covers parts of Angola, Brant, and Derby, regarding their child’s bus trips to and from school, claiming they’re coming in freezing when they get home after getting off the bus.
The kids are coming home saying their bus is freezing cold and the parents are giving them hand warmers.
“The heaters on the bus run off the same electricity as the bus itself,” said Scott Ziobro, a former school board candidate and parent who has children who go to school in the district. “They were told that it drains the battery capacity of the bus itself.”
Tisdale’s going to need a new slogan.
We’re hearing about the Thor Project from Canadian Energy Metals led by Chris Hopkins. 6.8 billion tonnes of aluminum have been found within a 230 square mile area in Saskatchewan.

My advice to the Conservative Party of Canada: just be patient. Your time in the sun may be coming.
Statistics Canada says the economy stalled in November and early estimates suggest a decline in real gross domestic product for the final quarter of 2025.
November saw manufacturing of durable goods hit its lowest levels since 2011, outside the COVID-19 pandemic.
Update: Even the mainstream financial media is noticing that something is not right.
Canada’s main stock index fell 1,092.61 points or 3.3 per cent on Friday.
I suspect that something was found in the intelligence community’s possession substantiating a foreign nexus to election irregularities in Fulton County, Georgia. I suspect that FISA warrants and active Operations have pulled that thread and established an extensive record of evidence. I suspect that this is later into the investigation, rather than earlier.
Read the whole thread.
Hey Don, did ya miss the new rules?
Disgraced ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon was arrested late Thursday over the anti-ICE protest that stormed a Minnesota church during Sunday service, according to his attorney.
“Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards,” Lemon’s attorney Abbe Lowell said in a statement shared with multiple reporters.
Lemon spent the night in jail and is expected to make a first appearance in court sometime Friday, according to Brian Stelter, the chief media analyst for Lemon’s former network.
An SDA regular noticed something odd with this article at CBC “News”:
Eight people have been arrested for allegedly accepting bribes for commercial driver examinations in Kingston and the Greater Toronto Area, said the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP).
Investigators discovered bribes were used to gain “favourable consideration” during road examinations for the commercial Class A license at certain locations, said the OPP in a news release.
The investigation into fraudulent commercial driver exams was prompted last January at the request of the Ministry of Transportation, they said.
As our sleuthy citizen reporter mentioned, here’s betting the names of the charged are: Murphy, Davis, MacDonald, Harrison, Tremblay, Penner, Geisbrecht, and Jones.
First Nations chiefs are demanding that Danielle Smith resign. Ezra Levant pointed out an uncomfortable fact from a dozen years ago.
Simon Ree: Why the “AI Circular Funding Circus” is a serious macro risk for H1 2026
The Round-Trip Money Loop: $MSFT gives billions in funding to OpenAI. OpenAI then hands the money right back to $MSFT to pay for Azure cloud credits. $NVDA gives billions in “funding” to OpenAI. OpenAI then hands that money right back to $NVDA to buy GPUs…etc…
The Illusion: This creates “round-trip revenue”. It makes MSFT’s cloud business look like it has infinite growth, when a lot of that growth is just MSFT recycling its own cash
The 2026 Danger: OpenAI is now projecting a need for $1.4 trillion in infrastructure. If the killer app that generates trillion dollar revenue doesn’t appear soon, funding dries up, the revenue vanishes and the circus tent collapses on all comapnies
It’s a game of musical chairs where the music is just the same $20B being passed in a circle
The $GOOGL Factor in the AI Circus
Why $GOOGL is the house and everyone else is gambling
The Vertical Moat: Unlike OpenAI and $MSFT, who are “taxed” by $NVDAs 80% gross profit margins, Google uses its own TPUs (Tensor Processing Units)
The Cost Advantage: GOOGL’s TPU v6 (Ironwood) can run AI models at roughly 20% of the cost of the $NVDA chips $MSFT and OpenAI are forced to buy
$GOOGL can lower its AI prices to a level where OpenAI cannot compete without losing billions
And $GOOGL owns the whole stack, from the YouTube and search data to the chips and the consumer distribution ecosystem. They can survive a price war that would bankrupt a company reliant on external hardware
$GOOGL doesn’t need the circular funding circus to survive. They can simply wait for high-cost players to run out of cash
The 2 companies with the largest revenue exposure to OpenAI – $MSFT and $ORCL – have seen their combined market caps lost $1.1 trillion since their peaks
The legal showdown between Musk and OpenAI is scheduled to go to court on 27 April, 2026. If the court rules in favour of Musk, the concentration risk I talked about in my post yesterday could become a full-blown financial crisis for big tech.

Today, I received the email shown below from the Juno Beach Centre in France, directing me to this URL.
Here’s what I wrote back to them:
You periodically ask me for donations. I’ve visited your facility before. It’s excellent. It well honours the brave Canadian men who died on June Beach on June 6, 1944 and in the many months afterwards to free Europe of the Nazi scourge.
But in 2022, you besmirched the good names of Tamara Lich, Chris Barber, and the other patriotic folks who protested the ridiculous, seemingly unending Covid mandates imposed by Justin Trudeau and his colleagues. The folks behind the Freedom Trucker Protest have been proven to entirely correct in what they were fighting for, including in several court cases. But you’ve never apologized, sincerely or otherwise.
“Lest we forget” has a special meaning every Remembrance Day. But it has a double meaning for me regarding the Juno Beach Centre. I will never forget, which is why the only donation you’ll ever get from me is disdain. Continue reading
