Canada’s Bolsheviks Climate Cult entitlement generation Protected Class 44 Comments

As the post office inevitably transitions to a horrifically expensive junk mail delivery service, this allegedly climate-change driven “death trap” is starting to look more like a suicide pact. The postal strike has certainly pushed me to go paperless for all my critical invoices and to use Amazon or a courier for parcel delivery from now on. I’m quite certain I’m not the only one.

Enslin, 41, has worked at Canada Post for 16 years and said the extreme weather brought on by climate change — whether it’s inhaling smoke from wildfires or delivering mail during storms — has added significant physical and mental pressure to their jobs.

And that’s one of the reasons postal workers are demanding more support for these challenges in their new contract, he said.

Zerohedge;

We thought last month’s US budget deficit was bad. Boy, were we wrong.

It is only fitting that the twilight days of the Biden admin would exhibit more of the same fakeness that defined not only all of the past four years, but certainly the fakeness of that Kamala Harris presidential campaign which had a billion dollars a month ago and ended up in failure, broke… and millions in debt. We are talking, of course, about the relentless debt-funded spree that somehow became synonymous with economic success in the US.

According to the latest Treasury data released today, in November – the second month of fiscal 2025 – the US spent a massive $584.2 billion, a 14% increase from the prior year, and a record for the month of November. For those who remember out outrage from a month ago, will also remember that the latest deficit number follows what was also a record government outlay for the month of October.

And they said the Clintons were sore losers.

…who would lose all the deadly viruses?

Sun- Hundreds of deadly virus samples vanish from Australian lab

What is arguably most terrifying is that the samples went missing in 2021 but investigators only confirmed the breach of security in August of last year.

Officials believe the vials were lost by Queensland’s Public Health Virology Laboratory when the storage freezer containing the viruses broke down.

Blacklock’s- Stop Criticizing Says Freeland

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland yesterday appealed to MPs to stop questioning cabinet’s credibility on debt management. Freeland promised to update budget figures next Monday, a day before Parliament is scheduled to adjourn for a five-week Christmas recess.

National Post- The expiry date on what’s left of Freeland’s credibility looks like next week

“I think it is very important not to cast any doubts on Canada’s fiscal credibility,” she said. This from a finance minister who has never hit a fiscal target she has imposed on herself.

It’s pretty surprising that the Quebec government displayed any outrage at an event that attempted to treat people differently based on ethnicity.

A Montreal community centre has cancelled its plans for a “family-friendly” dance party after it was pilloried for stratifying admission pricing based on race.

The Shake La Cabane FAM-JAM – to be held Sunday, Dec. 8, at La Cabane community centre – advertised $25.83 general admission, but only $15.18 if the attendee was “Black, Indigenous, and/or People of Colour.”

The centre also set a different price by which white children were granted free entry. White children under two were free, but for Black and Indigenous children the cut-off was 12 years.

Great Success!

Blacklock’s- GST Holiday Costs 80% More

A GST holiday will cost 80 percent more than claimed by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, the Budget Office said yesterday. Analysts said Freeland failed to account for mandatory compensation owed provinces that harmonized their own sales tax collections with the GST.

Nanos- Canadians are more likely to think the proposed HST/GST tax breaks and rebates are a bad idea rather than a good idea

Two in three Canadians think the federal government giving a $250 cheque to
working families is a poor (23%) or very poor idea (43%) while less than one
in five think this is a very good (six per cent) or good idea (nine per cent).
About one in two Canadians think the temporary elimination of GST and HST
on items like grocery store meals and internet bills is a very poor (32%) or
poor idea (19%), while about one in four think this is a very good (12%) or
good idea (16%).

B.C. Dairy Farmers Facing Hard Times

Uncategorized 28 Comments

Financial uncertainty hits B.C. dairy farmers as major operation forced into creditor protection:

“The dairy community in British Columbia is relatively small, and I have friendly relationships with a large number of farmers across the province. As I understand it, in 2019, right around the time of the loan, The Bank [of Nova Scotia] became very active and aggressive in lending to the dairy industry,” Dykman’s affidavit says.

“I am personally aware of at least six other dairy farmers who are in a similar position as me with the bank in that they fell into default as a result of increased interest rates or other circumstances outside their control and are now either in a forbearance agreement with the bank or being pushed to sell lands, quota or entire operations.”

None of this is surprising for a country whose leaders refer to each other as comrade.

These days, South Africa ranks among the ten least attractive mining destinations.

“When the new administration took over, it decided to try to totally revamp mining law in South Africa and copy what other African nations did,” Major said.

“You can imagine. You put billions into projects for 100 years and are now threatened with state ownership. New investment just stopped. Exploration and expansion just stopped. Why put money in something the state owns?”

“They were also changing legislation non-stop. You first had to have a BEE partner that owned 25%, and that quickly increased to 30%. And then, they said 70% of the money you spend had to go to BEE suppliers.”
