Inquiring minds want to know: can the Bank of Canada cut interest rates quickly enough to avoid a collapse of the housing market?

Butler says clients who locked in around 1.7 per cent in 2020 and 2021 are now renewing closer to four per cent, pushing payments up 20 to 25 per cent.

Even if the BoC cuts this week, affordability challenges will persist. “You cannot solve something that has taken 20, 30 years to build up in five minutes,” Tal said.

Charlie Kirk Assassination: Investigation Expands

The Deplorables The Tolerant Left 9 Comments

Free Beacon;

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is investigating social media posts by at least seven different accounts that appeared to indicate foreknowledge of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, according to three people familiar with the investigation and screenshots obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

The posts — one of which referenced the date of Kirk’s assassination, September 10, more than a month before it took place — were all deleted in the days following the killing. Several of the accounts appear to belong to transgender individuals, and at least one of them followed suspect Tyler Robinson’s roommate, with whom Robinson was allegedly in a relationship, on TikTok.

@FBIDDBongino: “There appear to have been multiple warning signs… this investigation has just begun.”

Burlington, Vermont is Falling Apart

Over 170 businesses signed letter urging action over crime in Burlington, Vermont:

Business owners in a New England college city are reportedly close to a breaking point as crime affects its downtown, potentially bringing trouble for students’ parents and leaf-peeping tourists in the area.

Officials in Burlington, Vermont — home to the University of Vermont — have said they are working on new strategies to combat crime in the city’s downtown, where business owners have raised concerns about graffiti, shoplifting and open drug use. While Mayor Emma Mulvaney-Stanak has noted there is no simple solution, she has argued that a heavier police presence could undermine progress, local news outlet WCAX Channel 3 reported.

Jimmy Baldea, a deputy with the Rutland County Sheriff’s Office, about 65 miles south of Burlington, told Fox News Digital that the mayor should reconsider her stance and that a greater police presence could be helpful for keeping crime at bay.

Styx, who lives in nearby Rutland, weighs in.

Recently, SDA regular ‘Kenji’ mentioned something that I had never even considered, but it’s very insightful and deserves much consideration:

. . . The wife and I continue to discuss the details (and missing details) of this horrible crime. And something NEW just occurred to me tonight. We are currently witnessing a COVID crime wave of weird, loner, 22 yo social misfits who essentially missed their Junior and Senior years of high school. These killers lost all human contact at crucial years in their social development. I read a comment that this 22yo murderer of Charlie Kirk has the emotional and intellectual development of a 14yo. Yep … perhaps we need to start looking at a COVID link to these trans/trans adjacent killers?

And given the two years of “Zoom HS” … I wonder just how legitimate this kid’s ’straight-A’ report card actually is? It makes me wonder whether he took his ACT exams on Zoom too? And if his ‘gamer community’ … probably the only ‘community’ this ‘shy loner’ has ever known… didn’t coach him on how to cheat the test. Because for all his ‘smarts’ and arrogance … he sure made himself easy to catch. Easier than many other recent murderers. I mean … seriously? … he just drove HOME after murdering one of the most famous political figures in America? Like he “got away with it”? Really? This is a top-tier student?

No … I believe we may have raised a gap-generation of gamers whose only contact with the real world and their peers is through a discord app and a 40” curved gaming screen. We are likely going to need a LOT more mental hospital beds than we’ve ever imagined.

The Problem Is Not Black vs. White

The actual problem is that painting certain groups of people as victims and other groups as oppressors has proven to be a surefire way to gain political power in a democracy. PVS (Permanent Victim Syndrome) may not exist in psychological textbooks, but it is a real thing. Encouraging people to be permanent victims certainly gives power and authority to those preaching it, but it is despicable and causes those buying into it to waste their lives in squalor and depression.
