April 12, 2026: Reader Tips

If you’re of an old enough generation, then you may have enjoyed several Peter Sellers Pink Panther films. You probably never realized there are great Intricacies of the Pink Panther Theme.

Bonus: This evening, I think I met the luckiest unlucky fellow in Florida. I went to a seafood restaurant in Kendall, a southern suburb of Miami. I had my dinner at the bar. At one end was a 29 year old Puerto Rican American who had quite a story to tell to everyone within earshot. In between expletives, we all learned that he had just been released from one week’s detainment somewhere in the state, arrested because a former girlfriend he accidentally ran into told police that she had a restraining order against him, but apparently did not. Apparently “that’s what you get for getting involved with a Mexican”, he added. We also learned that over the past decade, he has been awarded $500,000 for lawsuits against the police for 6 improper arrests. He has never spent any of this money but somehow owns 215 acres of land in Puerto Rico, 15 acres in North Carolina, and even more in Tennessee. He doesn’t feel the need to work any longer but does have a job at the airport. He also added that one certain way to win a lawsuit is to slip & fall at a Target store. If any of you want some life & financial advice, I could tell you where to find him, because he seems to be a regular there.

Fascinating Insight into How the Democrat Political Machine Works

Carefully think about how intricately coordinated all of the following is. Democrats don’t understand the first thing abou good governance, but they sure do know what it takes to achieve power.

Germany is a Failed State

After the destruction of World War 2, the people of West Germany came together, worked really hard, and built an industrial powerhouse. But in recent decades, Leftist politicians have completely destroyed the country.

Germany is the Perfect Country . . . for Lazy People!

Is it not ironic how we’re constantly told that America is Bad and Europe is Fantastic. Given that the nose-ring laden, blue haired speakers have never been good with “math”, it’s not very surprising that such statements are not based on . . . facts!

Saturday On Turtle Island

The Democratic Party’s America:    California’s Barbie bigot.    Victor Davis Hanson – NATO free riders.    Douglas Murray – Crush Iran.    Deluded Trump haters.

Conman Carney’s Canada:    Ban on biblical truths.    Muslim values are Canadian values.    Only the best for our dictator.    The dog ate my homework.

Stories You Won’t Find At Carney’s CBC:    Is nothing actually real?    Don’t joke about tea towels.

What Would We Do Without China?

Chemistry World;

Research papers that list Chinese institutions account for more than half of the retractions across 10 academic publishers, according to a new large-scale analysis.

The study, which has not been peer reviewed yet, was published on arXiv last month and examined 46,000 retractions issued by scholarly journals between 1997 and 2026 that were indexed by the Retraction Watch Database.

According to the study, there were 29,867 Chinese affiliations listed on these retractions – more than 91% of which don’t list international collaborators. Researchers in China produced 16.5% of all research output during that time period, the study found, despite the country’s institutions being listed on more than 52% of retracted papers in the sample.

Following China, institutions based in India, the US and Saudi Arabia feature on 7.25%, 5.72% and 2.83% of retractions, respectively.

Sask NDP’s big plan for the electrical grid: Hint – lots of wind and solar, and natural gas

I spent 11 hours working on this story, which I broke into four parts. These are the first two, the next two will come out early next week.

The NDP again want to see coal-fired power go away, “as practical.” The want to convert coal plants to natural gas, even though Saskatchewan has lots of coal but not much in the way of natural gas anymore. We drilled ten gas wells over the last decade, and Alberta did that many by noon today.

There is of course the obligatory massive buildout of wind and solar, and storage. And just coincidentally, three hours after the press conference, wind output in Alberta fell to next to nothing, again.

Slush Funds For All

Well, slush money for Montreal at least. It’s anyone’s guess why a port currently at 72% capacity really needs to expand, but we can dream, can’t we?

Nathalie Pilon, the chair of the Port of Montreal’s board of directors, said the expansion is needed, despite a recent decline in overall cargo traffic she attributed in part to U.S. tariffs. She said the port is at around 72 per cent capacity now, and that problems arise when 85 per cent is attained.

You’d think that having a four lane highway across the country might be a priority too, but roads to the Arctic seem to be the all the rage now. Mexico’s got a better road network than Canada at this juncture.

The prime minister said construction on another project, the Mackenzie Valley Highway in the Northwest Territories, would begin this summer
