The women’s wave fell short for Kamala Harris. What happened?

At a café in the heart of a swing county in the largest of the American swing states, no music played the morning after the presidential election. The Lawrence Park Dinor in Erie, Pa., heard only conversation between bleary-eyed customers absorbing the night’s stunning result over coffees and breakfast.

Those who had thrown their support behind the Republican president-elect felt joy, relief and a touch of vindication. Their Democratic counterparts were visibly dazed.

What happened? This …

And this …

And finally …

Today In TDS: Americans have made their bed, now we all must lie in it

On the morrow, I am so grateful to be Canadian.

For all our collective neuroses, the endless inferiority complex, the deep political fissures that often threaten to rip apart the fabric of our being, at least we’re not that. At least we’re not them.

We’re not Americans.

That’s never felt more of a blessing.

The Star is suffering full blown TDS. But it’s not just the Star as the Trudeau regime has bribed all our media into lockstep TDS.

Funny what they choose to forget…

Liberal minister’s former business questioned over ‘Indigenous’ claims in government contract bids

A company that belonged to federal Employment Minister Randy Boissonnault said it was Indigenous-owned while bidding on federal contracts.

While Boissonnault, who at the time co-owned Global Health Imports, has said in the past that he is Indigenous, he recently stated publicly that he is white.

Thank God! Former President Obama will not enjoy a fourth term

Thank God! The more gracious of the two candidates has won.

Presidential character was deemed a very important test of one’s suitability for office.

President Trump was defamed 24/7–none of his real and/or imaginary foibles or character failings were overlooked. Harris was praised 24/7 and none of her foibles ever made it into the mainstream media.

And now, the American voter has spoken. President Trump has won a “landslide” victory.

Twilight of the Elites?

Donald Trump’s reelection represents a repudiation of the luxury-belief class.

In light of Donald Trump’s second election to the presidency, many observers, especially those in the luxury-belief class, are bewildered. Branding Trump and his supporters as everything from “fascist” to “deplorable” to “racist” to “garbage” did little to sway public opinion or the electorate’s support.

Though preelection polls suggested a tight race, the former president has achieved a clear-cut victory and is now on track to win not only the Electoral College, which he has secured, but also the national popular vote. This is the best showing for a Republican presidential candidate since George W. Bush in 2004.

Singh’s party support shows ‘concerning’ drop in NDP-friendly regions: poll

OTTAWA — Support for federal New Democrats in B.C. and the Prairies is dropping at a “concerning” rate for leader Jagmeet Singh, a new poll suggests, despite recent gains by his provincial counterparts in Manitoba and Saskatchewan.

The Postmedia-Leger poll finds that the NDP’s popularity has dropped two per cent nationally, to 15 per cent, since the last poll on Sept. 30.

Trudeau’s environmental regulations stifling his environmental agenda

Under the Trudeau government of the last nine years, Canada has been locked into an extreme regime of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission controls meant to make Canada a “net-zero” emitter of GHGs by 2050, meaning Canada cannot emit more GHG into the air than Canada’s forests, agriculture and ecosystems draw out of the air on an annual basis.

How France is turning into a ‘Mexicanized narco-state’ with drug wars fought across the country

Rampant drug-fuelled violence in France is turning the country into what has been dubbed a ‘Mexicanized narco-state’ by a leading politician.

Narco wars are being fought across the country and have seen teenagers and children shot, stabbed and burned alive, gang kingpins broken out of custody, and cocaine washed up on beaches.

France’s new conservative interior minister recently declared war on the operating gangs after a 15-year-old boy was caught in the crossfires and killed in a massive brawl and gunfight in Poitiers, on November 1.

Via Rail’s performance has gone from bad to worse — and it’s costing the company millions

Cédryk Coderre was one of dozens of travellers left stranded on a Via Rail train for 10 hours earlier this year.

As the government-owned passenger railway struggled with a mechanical failure, passengers on board Train 622 on Aug. 31 were left hungry and thirsty and forced to contend with sometimes inoperable toilets that belched out foul odours.

Some irate passengers — frustrated after waiting for hours with little to eat beyond bagged pretzels — got combative with Via personnel on this Montreal-Quebec City trip, Coderre told a recent House of Commons committee studying the incident.

For Black Women, ‘America Has Revealed to Us Her True Self’

From the moment Kamala Harris entered the presidential race, Black women could see the mountaintop.

Across the country, they led an outpouring of Democratic elation when the vice president took over the top of the presidential ticket. But underneath their hope and determination was a persistent worry: Was America ready, they asked, to elect a Black woman?

The painful answer arrived this week.

Race baiting nonsense like this NYTimes piece is a big reason Kamala lost the election. They just don’t want to stop playing victim.

This woman below is not an outlier. I have no doubt racists like this motivated Trump voters.

GOLDSTEIN: Trump will boost U.S. energy production while Trudeau cuts Canada’s

U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s sweeping election victory has thrown Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s green energy and climate change policies into chaos, because of the Liberal government’s failure to understand the importance of harmonizing Canada’s energy policies with those of the U.S.

No problem we’re in good hands with Joly on the job.
