Thursday On Turtle Island

Dementia Joe’s America:  The new praetorian guard.  A medical scandal.  The American eco-terrorists.  A transgender agenda.  Respect for replacement killers.

Blackie’s Canada:  Trudeau trashes the premiers about the carbon tax. (CBC).  Canada’s sinister experiment.  Canadian university professors support Hamas.  Today Climate Justin burns jet fuel with his loyal media, to Southwestern Ontario.

Your morning meme.  Another meme.   A cartoon.

Is Woke Canada Ripe to be Invaded?

One wonders if, every night, Juthin and Chrystia sit in a healing circle with their Lieberal sycophants and sing Kumbaya. Maybe that will protect the No Longer Great White North. The actions of Lieberals surely won’t:

The Royal Canadian Air Force announced earlier this month that it will retire its fleet of pilot training jets and put the program on hiatus.

So ends a proud tradition of pilot training that during the Second World War saw Canada train more than 130,000 Allied aircrew, earning it the epithet “the aerodrome of democracy” from then U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt.

The Libranos: Just Another Day In Bananada

National Post;

Canada’s auditor general recently fired and called in police to investigate two employees who had been privately earning money from government contracts they had not declared.

In a statement to National Post this week, the Office of the Auditor General (OAG) said it is still investigating a third employee that it also discovered had contracts with another arm of the federal government the employee had not disclosed to their employer.

The firings, which occurred between September and December last year, come to light as questions swirl about how a federal public servant’s company was able to obtain a nearly $8-million contract to work on the ArriveCan app.

Winds of Change

Think of it as the tail end of love bombing.  Or as Mark Knofler once said, “Sometimes you’re the windshield, sometimes you’re the bug”.

UnHerd- The ugly return of homophobia Bigotry is coming from the progressive establishment

Whereas we have always been accustomed to this kind of thing from the far-Right — one recalls Nick Griffin’s remark on Question Time about how he finds the sight of two men kissing “really creepy” — but now the most objectionable anti-gay comments arise in online spheres occupied by gender ideologues, from those who claim to be progressive, Left-wing and “on the right side of history”. The significant difference is that the word “cis” has been added to the homophobe’s lexicon.

Mexico Overtakes Canada as America’s Largest Trading Partner

Trudeau’s bought and paid for media mouthpieces can spin things however Dear Leader wants, but this is an absolute disgrace:

Last year, Mexico became the United States’ biggest trading partner, surpassing Canada and China for the first time. This humiliating fact is simply the latest statistic that illustrates Canada’s economic decline since Prime Minister Justin Trudeau took power in 2015.

… Canada is stuck with an anti-business government and a prime minister who has driven away the resource-based mega-projects that have historically built and sustained this country’s living standards. Besides not growing the economy, Trudeau has impeded growth and driven away investment by increasing taxes to pay for bloated government spending.

I Want A New Country

Tristan Hopper;

The Supreme Court of Canada ruled in a recent sexual assault case that it was “problematic” for a lower court judge to refer to the alleged victim as a “woman,” implying that the more appropriate term should have been “person with a vagina.”

In a decision published Friday, Justice Sheilah Martin wrote that a trial judge’s use of the word “a woman” may “have been unfortunate and engendered confusion.”

Martin does not specify why the word “woman” is confusing, but the next passage in her decision refers to the complainant as a “person with a vagina.” Notably, not one person in the entire case is identified as transgender, and the complainant is referred to throughout as a “she.”

The case was R. v. Kruk, which involved a 2017 charge of sexual assault against then 34-year-old Maple Ridge, B.C., man Charles Kruk

About those multi-lateral wells … and the Alberta grid

Saturn Oil & Gas has joined the multi-lateral bandwagon, having drilled two open hole multi-lateral wells that the Government of Saskatchewan announced an incentive for yesterday (shared yesterday)

I’ve been saying for over a year the Government of Saskatchewan needs to do something to increase drilling numbers. I’m wondering if this is it?

Also: Alberta’s shaking up its electrical grid by 2027. And in a related story, new rules for power generators in Alberta

Transgender is A Stalking Horse For The Normalization Of Pedophilia

@Pagmenzies: Man, I read the @edmontonjournal and @CBCNews coverage of AB’s decision on this and it was pretty clear that Danielle Smith was just making things up. So imagine my surprise

Children who have gender dysphoria will no longer be given puberty blockers, NHS England has said, ahead of a radical change in how it cares for them.

There is not enough evidence about either how safe they are to take or whether they are clinically effective to justify prescribing them to children and young people who are transitioning, it added.

The government welcomed NHS England’s “landmark decision”, which it said was “in the best interests of children”.

NHS England made the announcement in response to the results of a public consultation on the ban, which it first proposed last June, and a review of available evidence by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (Nice).

Another surprise: Rate of suicide attempts doubled after vaginoplasty
