Financial Times- ‘Wake up!’ – Eddie Abbew is no ordinary food guru

He’s either banned or liable to get turfed out for filming the kinds of videos that have made him a sensation. These see him pulling products off shelves (usually sugary snacks or ultra-processed foods) and warning viewers against them in the most belligerent terms. “Wake the fuck up” and “This is not food” are his most famous catchphrases.

OMG:The Disney Files

A Disney whistleblower released internal documents to journalist James O’Keefe that revealed the Walt Disney Company has a long history of pushing a radical LGBTQ agenda onto children, specifically during Pride month.

Explosive documents show that the company promoted LGBTQ children’s events that featured naked adult males and polysexual virtual hangouts. Disney also released a map of their nationwide sponsored all-ages Pride parades, many of which included adult nudity and sexually charged performances. Additionally, it has been revealed that the Walt Disney Company is in a covert partnership with “Zebra Youth,” which is a support program for LGBTQ homeless and at-risk individuals between the ages of 13 and 24. […]

It was also revealed that Disney co-sponsored this year’s annual San Francisco Pride, which included public gay sex acts in front of attendees. Participants performed oral sex and engaged in “golden showers,” where one person pees on the other for sexual gratification.

Cold, Cruel, Small

He’s just not that into you.

There’s some sort of accountability exercise going on and Deputy Prime Minister CHRYSTIA FREELAND is being set up as a political sacrifice.

— Her apparent offense: Being an ineffectual sales agent (translation: lousy communicator) for the economic policies led by a PM who went into a pandemic election declaring he doesn’t prioritize thinking about monetary policy.

— It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a Cabinet shuffle trial balloon: Two anonymous sources dumped on Freeland by way of a report from The Globe and Mail’s BOB FIFE, knocking the DPM for failing to deliver an “upbeat economic message.”

In Washington at the NATO summit, the story caused a stir among the press traveling with Trudeau, prompting the PMO to smother it with denials.

Paywalled: A cunning plan to leave the Finance Minister dangling by a thread. If there’s an archived version, shoot me a link in the comments

Updated: link here. Thanks Adam!

But if Mr. Trudeau and his chief of staff, Katie Telford, huddle to go over the options that Liberals have mooted to turn things around – the Prime Minister resigning, the chief of staff resigning, or the finance minister resigning – door No. 3 might be a popular choice.

Saskatoon energy lawyer who’s not a fan of oil and gas makes submission

In my continuing saga on the Clean Electricity Regulations, I’ve been posting many of the submissions to the Economic Assessment Tribunal. This one, in particular, caught my eye. Chad Eggerman is a very focal critic of the Saskatchewan Party government on X. especially when it comes to energy and the carbon tax.  Most of the submissions to the tribunal were requested by the tribunal. Two were not expressly solicited. Eggerman’s submission to the tribunal was one of those two, and was included in the report appendices.

 

Eggerman is a big fan of wind projects. That comes clear in his presentation. Take a look.

Also:

Another carbon capture project is going ahead in Alberta.

Big Boy Update: Now nearly an hour late, leaving the teleprompters frustrated.

BIDEN CALLED TRUMP HIS VICE PRESIDENT

WHAT IS HAPPENING

Rambling Joe answers questions about Democrats calling him to step aside with regurgitated lines about the economy. Denies admitting cognitive and physical decline… his staff “adds things at the very end, I’m catching hell from my wife.”

Afghanistan or Israel?

This is probably right.

He started off rough and he’s still having rough patches… but this is good enough to keep him in the race. Which is terrible news for Democrats and excellent news for Trump.

Hold it together there Joe. Plenty of slurring as the newser winds down. Oh! Out comes ANGRY JOE!!

@RealSaavedra – WOW. Biden says he has no problem if his committed delegates decide they want to vote for someone else to be the party’s nominee

He’d quit if he was told there was no way he could win. “No one’s saying that. No poll says that” And the staff is finally able to get him out of there.

How Could They Not Know This?

Serious question.

Global- How many doctors does Canada have? Feds to fund research to find answer

The federal government has answered years-long calls from doctors and nurses to tally and research the number of health workers in Canada with a $47 million funding announcement.

The money is being divided among research groups that aim to collect and study data on Canada’s health workforce, which has been difficult to gather across provincial health systems.

The largest sum, $22.5 million, is being given to the an arm of the Canadian Institute for Health Information to figure out where gaps are in the workforce.

The Perfect Crime

From private communication this morning;

I have had a learning week. Vehicle stolen july 2 and just recovered July 10… my car has more evidence in it than one can imagine, but lack of police has them not interested…

Maybe I should look on Amazon for a fingerprint lifting kit..

At least I now know what they can’t lift fingerprints from. All those crime shows on TV etc are wrong..

You cannot lift prints from a can of any type of spray or vape machine or skateboard.

I am so much wiser.

…then when I told them that the car had no plates on it and that if the thieves were going to use my plates on another vehicle I wanted them to know. I was told to just go on the saskatoonpolice website and put in my file number and add that information.

I would have thought while I was speaking with them on the phone while they had my file opened they could add it in.

no.

Government of Canada, July 2021;

The Government of Quebec confirms a $30-million loan for Taiga Motors, while the Government of Canada plans to grant a loan of up to $10 million to the business. These financial contributions will support Taiga Motors’ project to industrialize the manufacture of personal watercraft, snowmobiles, electric motorization systems and battery packs. This initiative valued at $125.17 million will lead to the creation, by the end of 2023, of at least 370 well-paying jobs in Montréal and Shawinigan.

CBC, July 2024;

Taiga Motors Corp. says it has obtained an interim court order for creditor protection as well as one authorizing the company to launch a formal sale and investment solicitation process.

The Montreal-based electric snowmobile maker also says it has secured a line of credit from Export Development Canada — already a creditor — for up to $4.4 million.

The company says the money will be used to finance it and its subsidiaries’ capital requirements for restructuring under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act.

The company says it expects it will be placed under delisting review on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
