Blacklock’s- Quietly Waives War Sanction
Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly yesterday quietly removed a Russian banker from cabinet’s Ukraine war sanctions list. No reason was given.
Kamyshev is a former partner with Ernst & Young in the United Kingdom. The department would not say what business he had in Canada.
National Post- Ontario man granted euthanasia for controversial ‘post COVID-19 vaccination syndrome’
Identified as “Mr. A,” the man experienced “suffering and functional decline” following three vaccinations for SARS-CoV-2. He also suffered from depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety and personality disorders, and, “while navigating his physical symptoms,” was twice admitted to hospital, once involuntarily, with thoughts of suicide.
Globe and Mail- Trudeau cries wolf on foreign interference
The government has kept sensitive information from public view when doing so would harm those interests. And it has disclosed sensitive information when helpful to its interests. The needs of the Trudeau government, not Canada’s security, have been the guiding principle, if it can be called that.
During the pandemic, the dictators assured us that restaurant closures would not be an issue, since the economy would easily “recover” afterwards. Add in the recent hikes in minimum wages and it comes as no surprise that the marginal consumer has evidently reached a very different conclusion.
Late last week, anonymous sources told Bloomberg that TGI Fridays was preparing to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and was in talks with lenders who could possible keep the company afloat in the meantime.
In related news, Denny’s is scaling back its operations in accordance with the declining fortunes of its customers.
Denny’s is closing 150 restaurants over the next year, and the 71-year-old diner chain is mulling a major change to its 24/7 operating hours.
Fifty locations are set to close by the end of 2024, while the remaining 100 will shutter in 2025, Denny’s announced in an earnings call Tuesday.
You can’t make this stuff up.
The Saskatchewan Green Party proposes to “Make Green Jobs the future of Saskatchewan’s economy by transitioning away from fossil fuels,” while financing its extensive socialist policy platform by modelling Norway which applies “a whopping 78 percent total tax” on oil and gas revenues.
Notably, it includes five pages discussing the Greens opposition to small modular reactors. And the policy document closes by saying on the last page, “How do we pay for it? The Saskatchewan Green Party is dedicated to building a prosperous future for our province. It is time to raise royalty rates in the oil & gas sector to levels that truly reflect the value of our resources. We would use Norway as an example. Norway has a 51 percent tax on petroleum-related income, on top of the 27 percent income tax. That amounts to a whopping 78 percent total tax. This is put into a fund to benefit all citizens.”
That page does not list any other major revenue source, or indeed any revenue source at all, other than heavily taxing oil and gas, the same oil and gas earlier in the document the party promises to transition away from. If the party does succeed in “transitioning away from fossil fuels,” (Page 17) it offers no other source of revenue on the “How do we pay for it?” page (Page 61).

Vertically separated in the same cup without a physical barrier.
A 16-year-old boy is facing charges after allegedly firing a can of bear spray on a Saskatoon transit bus on Tuesday evening.
The incident marks at least the third time bear spray has been discharged on a city bus this month.
David Harsanyi – It’s not that the Atlantic’s Editor-in-Chief, Jeffery Goldberg, has the journalistic ethics of a drunk National Enquirer reporter. It’s that the entire media spreads his gossip without a hint of skepticism.
The Atlantic, which loses tens of millions of dollars every year, is owned by billionaire Laurene Powell Jobs, who isn’t worried about the magazine’s 164-year tradition of “challenging assumptions and pursuing truth.” Rather, as she explained to her ”close” and “genuine” friend, Vice President Kamala Harris, at an event not long ago, she wants to lift up “cultural narratives” that will create “a more just and equal society.”
Goldberg’s 2024 narrative is suffering from the same problems his 2020 “suckers and losers” hit piece did. Anonymous sources make claims that a bunch of on-the-record people contradict. There’s a 0% chance that any reputable newspaper, 10-20 years ago, would have run a story about a president demeaning fallen American servicemen based on an anonymous source without any corroboration.
Indeed: 2016 vibes.
Global- Nova Scotia will drop HST to 14%
The provincial part of the HST will drop to nine per cent from 10, meaning Nova Scotians will be paying a combined HST of 14 per cent.
“Lowering the HST will make things more affordable for all Nova Scotians, everybody who purchases something. So that’s why we’re taking this step,” Houston told reporters during a Wednesday news conference.
Toronto Star- Home-care patients say critical medical supplies have stopped arriving since Ontario government changed distribution system
Around the end of September, Patti Moss and Steve Clark began to notice that things were missing in the package of medical supplies delivered to her home.
The couple from Bradford have been managing Clark’s pain and treatment from home after he was diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer in August.
First, it was a syringe that was missing from a delivery of saline solution that Clark needs to keep him hydrated after receiving chemotherapy. Then, instead of a high-flow line needed to deliver the saline to Clark intravenously, a low-flow line was sent. Two weeks ago, the saline bags just didn’t show up.

National Post- Nova Scotia woman was asked if she knew about assisted dying before mastectomy surgery for breast cancer
patients have reported feeling ‘badgered and harassed’ to consider MAID
Jimmy Dore & Adam Carolla discuss several uncomfortable truths. Make no mistake, Kamala Harris and her ilk want to make it impossible for anyone to have such discussions openly.
Carolla: “It’s only possible if you have an army of Citizen Sheep who are having a lot of difficulty putting thoughts together. Because them on their own – they’re on the wheelhouse of the Viking ship but they need slaves to row. And you guys got recruited to be slaves. Now, you didn’t know it, but you were the lieutenants in their Covid Army. They don’t have enough – there’s not enough enforcement – they don’t have the numbers – but you, as a Citizen Slave Enforcer can walk down the horse trail and yell at your fellow citizen to put a mask on.”
Jump while you still can, little buddy 🐀 !
