November 30, 2025: Reader Tips

To end the month, we have something special for you. The 100th Anniversary of Route 66 occurs next year. Here is a Route 66 Virtual Tour

Bonus: While this could have been one of Kate’s “Honey, I Finished The Internet” posts, here is an innovative YouTube channel called Sandwiches of History. To get a flavour of the channel (pun intentional), here’s Officer Bill Gannon Sandwich of Dragnet (1952).

If you have any personal Route 66 stories to share, we’d love to hear them! News tips are always great too!!

Coulda Had A Pipeline

Indeed. Interesting video in which a B.C. Liberal MP politely explains that the MOU actually doesn’t mean or do anything. Hopefully no one translates this into Albertan.

Transgender Is A Stalking Horse For The Normalization Of Pedophilia

Virtuous Pedophiles (VirPed) is a group founded in 2012 that purports to seek the de-stigmatization of pedophilia in order to facilitate “harm prevention and personal support.”

A “non-binary” academic who previously was forced to resign from a criminal justice assistant professorship after defending the “dignity” of “minor attracted people” is offering to pay self-identified pedophiles to participate in a survey. Allyn Walker, now associated with the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health (formerly the Moore Center for the Prevention of Child Sexual Abuse), posted the recruitment advert in the Virtuous Pedophiles Forum, where she has been a member for nearly ten years.

Saturday On Turtle Island

The Democratic Party’s America:   Victor Davis Hanson –  Supporting Israel.   Douglas Murray –  Afghan terror.   An ex-Muslim’s warning to America.  Media blames PTSD.

Conman Carney’s Canada:  Queering outdoor education.  Land acknowledgements.  Rejects award.

Stories You Won’t Find At Carney’s CBC:  Letter of the day.   Paul Joseph Watson –  This actually happened.  Afghan sex attacks.

And at the Bee.

The Start of a Hi-Tech Powered Dark Age?

This AI cat video is an example of the latest state of AI videos. While most certainly amusing, there’s a darker side to what this technology could be used for.

Imagine if dozens, then hundreds, then thousands of videos start appearing on social media, showing police brutalizing black people or Muslims. Realize that 100% of these videos would be fake, but the average person won’t know that. What do you think would result? Who would do such a dastardly thing, you might be wondering?

I’ve long felt that [some of] the elites want the rest of us fighting with each other, rather than closely examining them. That’s who would launch such a propaganda campaign and they have more than enough money & resources to do it.

Margin Of Fraud

Democrat torpedo marked “Return to Sender”

“So let me get this straight: Fani funnels $750k of taxpayer dollars to her paramour for a hopeless case against DJT. She gets caught and tossed off the case, but Democrat voters in Fulton County re-elect her anyway. And now the voters will likely get stuck with the bill for Trump’s legal fees spent defending against Fani’s hopeless case. Meanwhile, Fani pays nothing out of her own pocket, her paramour gets to keep the $750k, and Fani still has her job, salary, and benefits until at least 2028. (And let’s be honest: probably beyond 2028.). Gooder and harder, Atlanta.”

Down The Primrose Path

NYPost: Anti-corruption units have raided the home and office of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s chief of staff, Andriy Yermak, in an unwelcome distraction for Kyiv officials as they battle to defeat Russia’s invasion and persuade US officials to accommodate their concerns in peace proposals.

More: Media referring to Yermak as “Zelensky’s top aide” or “lead negotiatior.” Once again clever with their words to downplay the significance of his exit.

Dispatches from the Maple Gulag Truck Stop

On my list of things I wish were real, a growing economy in Canada is just above flying cars. But it’s just not in the cards…

Forecasters had predicted gross domestic product (GDP) would expand by a more modest 0.5 per cent. The momentum was driven by Canada’s strengthening trade balance, with a decrease in imports and an increase in exports during the quarter, Statistics Canada said on Friday. It was also driven by increased capital spending by governments, as business investment remained flat.

The trucking industry is always the first into and the first out of a recession and not even Mark Carney’s deficits can change that.

What the Alberta-Canada pipeline MOU means for Saskatchewan

It has significant implications for Saskatchewan, including power generation, interties, nuclear, and, oh yeah, pipelines and oil production.

What the Alberta-Canada pipeline MOU means for Saskatchewan

Canada-Alberta Memorandum of Understanding, verbatim

Carney’s speech on the Canada-Alberta pipeline MOU, verbatim

Canadian Press:

Eby brands pipeline ‘energy vampire’ as First Nations vow it will never happen

Comments and reaction on Ottawa-Alberta pipeline memorandum of understanding

Is this thing the real deal? Guilbeault resigned over it! It was real enough for him to fall on his sword. I really want to write that story but I need to drive four hours Friday morning so it’ll have to wait.

Headlines I am considering:

Christmas does indeed come in November, as Guilbeault resigns

Ding, dong, the climate witch resigned

His legacy unravelled by Carney’s pipeline MOU, Guilbeault quits cabinet

Hot on the heels of returning from COP30, Guilbeault quits over pipeline MOU

At an end his reign is, and not short enough it was: Guilbeault quits (read it in Yoda’s voice)

Canada’s energy bogeyman quits over pipeline MOU

The climate house he build is falling to pieces, so Guilbeault quits

Climate warrior Steven Guilbeault undone by Carney’s pipeline MOU, resigns in protest

The guy who wanted you to freeze in the dark just quit cabinet

Arguably the man most hated by the Canadian energy sector (besides Trudeau) packs it in

All out of CN towers to climb and economies to ruin, Guilbeault walks the plank

 

I might just use all of them. I’ll probably have a half dozen more when I wake up. Maybe I’ll make a contest for the best headline.

I will publish his entire resignation letter as soon as I’m able.

Friday On Turtle Island

The Democratic Party’s America:   A San Diego cleric.  Land acknowledgements.   Victor Davis Hanson –  The Left’s climate of violence and the lost generation.

Conman Carney’s Canada:  Ontario teachers’ pension plans.   A new book.  Ontario school board.  No pipelines for you! (Warning: CBC)

Stories You Won’t Find At Carney’s CBC:   Paul Joseph Watson –  It just keeps happening.  Don’t say fireman.

And at the Bee.
