Our Chinese-Installed Government In Ottawa
As food bank use skyrockets, Justin Trudeau takes time out of his busy schedule for a photo op. It’s posted on “VanPeople’s” WeChat.
One account is run from Canada.
The other has an IP address in Beijing. Created in 2018, it was used to attack Erin O’Toole in the last election.
Otherwise, it’s business as usual.
I, For One, Welcome Our New Self-Driving Overlords
Laid-off coal miners in the last decade were contemptuously told to “learn to code.”
But the worm has turned. Google is looking at laying off 30,000 people it expects to replace with artificial intelligence.

Investor Brian Wang notes ChatGPT is already causing white-collar job loss.
There’s No Business Case for Steel
A Revolutionary Culture
South Africa made some strides in cleaning up rampant criminality when it hosted the FIFA World Cup in 2010 but that all seems to be a distant memory now. The reality is that the ANC is returning to its ideological roots, where anarchy and lawlessness play a role in cultivating the ground for a revolution that they hope to cash in on. The end goal: make society so chaotic that a traumatized citizenry will accept a dictatorship of the proletariat.
Security vans carrying money are rammed off busy daytime roads by deliberate attacks with vehicles, with guards set upon by heavily armed men who use bombs to blow open safes.
Robberies can last extended periods, with motorway traffic continuing normally on the other side of the road while gangs prime their explosives and rove about with automatic weapons, sometimes filmed by onlookers.
The murder rate fell in the years after the end of apartheid, reaching a low point around a decade ago. Since then, it has increased 77% to the current level – back to where it was 20 years ago.
Detection rates have fallen in tandem, down more than 60% since 2012, leading to the situation where so few murders are solved.
Entitled to their Entitlements
National Post- Average pay for public service execs increased by over $500 million since 2015
That represents a 41 per cent increase in pay, as well as a 31 per cent increase in the number of executives working within federal departments and agencies.
And of course…
Performance metrics also don’t seem to matter much when doling out bonuses, with federal public workers netting around $200 million in bonus pay in 2022, despite meeting less than 60 per cent of goals.

Wee Foo Yoo: Ottawa insider warns about immigrant-investor programs
Something fishy is going on in Juthin’s Corrupt Canada:
After initially transferring their money out of their country of origin, typically somewhere in East Asia, Hiebert wrote, most purchased a house “along with a Mercedes, Audi or whatever. And then life is lived quite simply, on a small budget and with little owing in terms of income tax. The kids get to go to UBC or SFU while paying domestic fees, which is a big bonus.

Chicago’s Last Republican Mayor Left Office In 1931
Let’s check in on how things are going.
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is “stressed out” and has been admitted to the hospital for panic attacks. That’s according to veteran Chicago journalists John Kass and Anita Padilla, who discussed Johnson’s panic attacks on an episode of WGN-AM’s Chicago Way Podcast.
“The mayor’s panic attacks? Can we talk about that?” Kass said. “No amount of anti-depressants can cure him of (Chicago’s illegal alien) problem.”
Padilla said Johnson has sought out professional medical help for stress.
“Two sources told me that he has been in the hospital for these panic attacks. He is stressed out,” Padilla said. “This is a big, big job for him. He’s not ready for it. He’s not a leader. I’m sorry. This immigration issue is not helping him at all.”

Sun- Chinese marathon runner disqualified for chain-smoking through entire race
Being in good enough shape to complete a full 26.2-mile marathon at 52 years old is impressive. To do it in 3 hours and 33 minutes is even more impressive. To do so while chain-smoking the entire race is downright insane.
