StatCan estimates the number to be 37,650 in 2023 alone. For the first time since 2012, B.C. lost more people than it gained, and almost all of those who moved in the final quarter of 2023 flowed to Alberta — a break from a trend where people in the prairie province sought out the West Coast as a place to live after retirement.

WHO Director-General calls for a “transformation” of the food system, away from meat-eating and traditional agriculture, in the name of fighting “climate change”:
“Our food systems are harming the health of people and planet. Food systems contribute to over 30% of greenhouse gas emissions, and account for almost one third of the global burden of disease.”
“Transforming food systems is therefore essential, by shifting towards healthier, diversified and more plant based diets.”
“Hi this is Beth Reinhard I’m a reporter with the Washington Post. I’m so sorry to bother you.

He’s “not inherently dangerous.” He just wants to molest little girls, you see, while pretending to be a woman.
Hidden Camera captures Principal Economist @federalreserve talking about Jerome Powell’s legacy as “somebody who held the line against like, Trump.” The influential agency responsible for maintaining a stable monetary system appears to not just be establishing interest rates, but to be setting policies for desired social outcomes.

Cabinet had to follow “due process” before firing suspected Chinese spies working at the National Microbiology Laboratory, says Health Minister Mark Holland. Scientists with links to the People’s Liberation Army came under surveillance in August 2018 but remained on the job until July 2019: “Do you think they were eminent scientists or eminent spies?”
Transgender ‘MAP’ Activist Connected to Pro-Pedophile Group Influencing Academic Research
A trans-identified male who identifies as a “minor-attracted person” and has been running a “MAP” merchandise shop online is also working with a prominent pro-pedophilia group that has consulted academics. Katie Cruz, a pseudonym used by a man who calls himself Cali Miller, has been “working behind the scenes” with activist group B4U-ACT, which campaigns to have pedophilia recognized as a sexual orientation, and which has contributed to academic research at some of North America’s top universities.
The term ‘MAP’ is an acronym which stands for ‘Minor-Attracted Person,’ and is used in online pro-pedophile communities as a way to reduce stigma against individuals who seek to sexually abuse children. It was coined by the co-founder of B4U-ACT, convicted child rapist Michael Melsheimer. Melsheimer explicitly stated that the purpose of the organization was to normalize pedophilia where the National Association of Man-Boy Love (NAMBLA) had failed to do so.
On Patreon, Cruz has stated that his “age of attraction” is between 9 and 13 years old. He also claims to identify as having a “trans age” of between “13 and 17ish.”
Two confidential CSIS witnesses have testified that CSIS director David Vigneault took the rare step of changing a sensitive intelligence report on MP Han Dong for the second time in 2023, following a meeting between Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Vigneault regarding media leaks about CSIS investigations into suspected Chinese interference in Dong’s 2019 nomination in Toronto.
Following a day of bombshell testimony regarding this and other meetings between Trudeau and Vigneault, Tuesday evening Commissioner Marie-Josée Hogue ruled that Vigneault will be recalled Friday for re-examination on his private discussions with the Prime Minister and Trudeau’s top aides.

Guest post from William McNally:
McKinsey has four studies that are used by DEI advocates to argue that diversity “is a powerful enabler of business performance.”
Here’s the 2020 study. McKinsey measure diversity as the racial variety of a company’s executive team.
A new paper by Green and Hand delivers a pretty thorough debunking. Here’s a synopsis of the criticism.
Here’s the journal article by Green and Hand.
McKinsey wouldn’t share its data (very suspicious) and Green and Hand couldn’t replicate the McKinsey results with a large sample of S&P firms.
Worse, McKinsey’s study design measures a reverse causality: that increased performance causes more diverse hiring.
That makes more sense to me, as I think that diversity is a luxury belief: https://www.robkhenderson.com/p/status-symbols-and-the-struggle-for
This fits into the Scott Adams category of “Backwards Science”.
To give an example, McKinsey’s 2015 study measures diversity in 2014 but looks at financial performance in the years 2010-2013.
Thus, the McKinsey results don’t provide evidence for the conclusion they are making. The results show that companies with high EBIT margins tend to hire more diverse executives.
