David Henderson- An Opening for Private Liquor Stores in Manitoba
The above is a picture I took last night of people lining up at a Manitoba government liquor store in Winnipeg. For about 2 years now, the government has had a system in place to allow people in the stores one by one. The reason is that a few years ago, there were a number of gang attacks on the liquor stores. People, typically youths, would enter all at once and steal liquor. Some employees were injured.
Why isn’t honey $100 a quart?
About 20 years ago, some honeybees died from “colony collapse disorder.”
The media went into a buzz.
But beekeepers rebuilt lost colonies and the disorder soon diminished.
Now, there are 31% MORE bees in America.
Since the media won’t report on that, I will: pic.twitter.com/JTYcvGXPIb

About safe supply is how it saves lives while drying up demand for dangerous street drugs: “Government Heroin” documentary exposes rampant safer supply fraud
In the film, Callum explains how, three years ago, a friend informed him that drug users in the city were receiving “insane” amounts of free safer supply drugs – predominantly hydromorphone, an opioid as potent as heroin. While these drugs are meant to wean addicts off riskier street substances, the friend explained that recipients mostly sell their safer supply at bargain prices so they can procure stronger substances, such as illicit fentanyl.
At first, Callum thought this was a joke. He had been struggling with a moderate addiction to pharmaceutical opioids – mostly oxycodone and Percocet – but, as these pills were expensive and hard to find, his drug use remained stable. The idea that the government was showering individuals with hundreds of powerful opioid pills a month, for free and with essentially no supervision, seemed “almost like a dream for a drug addict.”
But then he connected with some safer supply clients and realized that everything that he had heard was true.
When your neighbour offers free power, take it. SaskPower did. Thanks, Alberta!
SaskPower was “buying” enough power to light 146,000 homes for less than a price of a Timbit, because you have to pay at least something for a Timbit.
And it has a lot to do with excess wind power while interties are down.

And, while at the Lloydminster Heavy Oil Show, some interesting things happened. Apparently the media came from Edmonton and Calgary to Lloydminster so they could ask the premier about Edmonton and Calgary.
Brian Zinchuk: Did the mainstream media even know they were in Lloydminster?

Presidential Election Pre-Postmortem
I decided to write my November 2024 election postmortem in early September so I can stop listening to political coverage and focus, instead, on mowing the lawn, cleaning out drawers, and making some more coffee. As soon as a winner has been declared (i.e., sometime between November 5 and January 6), simply print off this article and, between each pair of brackets, cross out the left-hand entry if Harris has won, or the right-hand entry if Trump has won.

So yesterday I put over 800 km on my truck to attend a press conference in Saskatoon regarding the report of Saskatchewan’s Economic Impact Assessment Tribunal on the planned greenhouse gas emissions cap on oil and gas production, as well as “Methane 75.” That proposes cutting methane emissions by 75% by 2030.
This is the opening story in what will literally be dozens of pieces on this, as I will be publishing most of the submissions to the tribunal.
The key thing is the Saskatchewan government says an emissions cap is a de facto production cap, and this report bears that out. And for the record, oil and gas, principally oil, is the largest portion of Saskatchewan’s GDP, exceeding even agriculture and potash.
Also, I looked down at my tripod while at the press conference and noticed it’s covered with grey specs of drilling mud from visiting various rigs over the summer. And then I looked around at the other media’s tripods – CTV, Global, CBC, CBC French, some I don’t know. No mud. I wonder why? Go figure.
Sun- Is Bill C-293 Canada’s ‘Vegan Act’?
Under this bill, public health officials could have the authority to close facilities they consider “high risk,” such as meatpacking plants, during pandemics and even “mandate” the consumption of vegetable proteins by Canadians — measures that border on the absurd. It’s hardly surprising that the private member who introduced Bill C-293 is Liberal MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith, who is known for his vegan lifestyle.
Woke World: Arson attacks in Europe. Eco-warriors and an Irish pub. Paul Joseph Watson – They’re doing it again.
Cackling Kamala’s America: Just plain evil. Kamala’s migrant children. The new poll. A wake-up call. We interrupt this election.
Blackie’s Canada: Justin’s CTV makes an apology. The Trudeau interview. Criticism of Justin’s media is an attack against Canada.
One would have to search wide & far to find two more loathsome individuals on television. Actually, if Trudeau’s BFF, Jacinda Ardern, were also on at the same time, spontaneous, uncontrollable vomiting may have broken out.

Calgary Herald- Grain workers strike update: Picket lines go up at six Metro Vancouver terminals
Grain terminal workers picked a “high leverage moment” to go on strike in Metro Vancouver as farmers in Western Canada have an abundance of product to move for export, a food economics and supply chain expert says.
Picket lines went up at six grain terminals in Metro Vancouver on Tuesday as about 600 workers with Grain Workers Union Local 333 began their strike.
Another one bites the dust. Most SDA readers won’t be shocked.
Half the staff at a news-talk radio station’s newsroom in Kamloops were fired Tuesday.
Around 11 a.m., what was supposed to be the syndicated Mike Smyth Show was replaced with classic rock. The station was broadcasting brief The Canadian Press news updates.
In addition to bailing out the Treasury, it’s likely that the Fed lowered interest rates in order to stem the losses on its own bond portfolio as well. Whichever aspect you focus on, none of it is good news.
The “higher for longer” policy only lasted eighteen months.
The U.S. budget deficit reached $1.897 trillion in the first eleven months of the 2024 fiscal year, and annual interest costs on the public debt topped $1 trillion for the first time….Furthermore, in its own projections, the Treasury expected an increase of $16 trillion in government debt between 2024 and 2034. The Congress Budget Office estimates that the implementation of the Harris economic plan will result in a further $2.25 trillion increase in debt.
