Why the “15-minute city” has sparked protests

… Though the concept seems innocuous—who wouldn’t want everything you need nearby?—plans to adopt it have lately ignited street protests, press denunciations, and social-media warfare, especially in European cities. One spark has been a move by the city of Oxford in England to impose traffic restrictions, including closing off some neighborhoods to cars during the day, to encourage more biking and walking. Protesters hit the streets in February to fight the initiative, with signs reading “NO TO 15-MINUTE CITIES” and complaints that the traffic restrictions recalled the lockdowns. Marchers also objected to the traffic cameras being installed to scan license plates to see if a car had entered a no-go area—deeming it a troubling expansion of the surveillance state.

It’s worse than thought.

WEF Official Suggests AI Be Used To Rewrite Bible, Create ‘Religions That Are Actually Correct’

A top official with the World Economic Forum (WEF) has called for religious scripture to be “rewritten” by artificial intelligence (AI) to create a globalized “new Bible.”

Yuval Noah Harari, the senior advisor to the WEF and its chairman Klaus Schwab, argues that using AI to replace scriptures will create unified “religions that are actually correct.”

Harari, an influential author and professor, made the call while giving a talk on the “future of humanity.”

Globohomo worship.

The United Nations’ Jihad Against Israel

The United Nations has adopted the nasty habit of many Palestinians: throwing everything at Israel but the kitchen sink. Accusations against Israel have ranged from fabricated claims not merely of “apartheid,” but climate apartheid, water apartheid, violating women’s rights (the only country accused of that in the midst of a sea of crushing Islamic fundamentalist regimes!), to kidnapping and murdering Palestinian children to harvest their organs.

The UN, ostensibly dedicated to protecting human rights, and has, in fact, devolved into hurling bogus, tabloid-style allegations as it joins other blood-libel false charges by considering the addition of Israel to its list of blacklisted entities in its 2023 Children and Armed Conflict (CAAC) Report.

JPMorgan to Pay $290 Million in Settlement With Epstein’s Victims

JPMorgan Chase reached a tentative settlement with sexual abuse victims of Jeffrey Epstein, the deceased financier, after weeks of embarrassing disclosures about the bank’s longstanding relationship with him, the bank and lawyers for the victims said in a statement on Monday.

David Boies, one of the lead lawyers for the victims, said the bank was prepared to pay $290 million to resolve the lawsuit. The parties initially had agreed not to disclose the settlement amount in their joint statement, as it was set to be included in a court filing within the next week.

Olivia Chow’s support slips slightly in new mayoral race poll

Support for Toronto mayoral candidate Olivia Chow has slipped slightly but none of her rivals made significant gains in the past week, according to a new Forum Research poll for the Toronto Star.

The survey of 1,047 Torontonians conducted Friday found the former NDP MP with the support of 35 per cent of decided voters, down three percentage points from a week earlier — but still far ahead of challengers.

Gonna soon be time to consider gettin outta here.

How the Liberals managed a crisis into a fiasco

The old saw about crisis management is that the goal is to figure out where the crisis ends and get there as quickly as possible.

But when Liberal cabinet minister Dominic LeBlanc met reporters on the Saturday morning after the resignation of David Johnston to talk about next steps, he was back where Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was three months ago, on March 6.

Trudeau’s climate plan rated as ‘incompetent, unfair, and lacking transparency’

Canadian government research obtained through Access to Information shows Canadians rate the cabinet’s climate program as ‘incompetent, unfair, and lacking transparency.’

According to Blacklock’s Reporter, the research does not mention Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault by name but reveals widespread distrust of the government’s environmental policies.

It’s not a “climate plan”, it’s thieving thuggery.

The US Is Preparing Evacuation Plans for American Citizens in Taiwan

The U.S. government is preparing evacuation plans for American citizens living in Taiwan, three sources told The Messenger.

The planning has been underway for at least six months and “it’s heated up over the past two months or so,” said a senior U.S. intelligence official who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to discuss the planning.

CHARLEBOIS: The calm before the Competition Bureau’s storm?

As much as the parliamentary investigation into food inflation is more about political artifice, the Competition Bureau’s study on the food industry announced last fall is the more interesting exercise.

Since last year, the Bureau has been heavily criticized for not upholding a decent level of competition in the food industry and helping consumers cope with higher food prices. The food retail industry is essentially controlled by a handful of players: Loblaw, Empire/Sobeys, Metro, Walmart and Costco sell well over 85% of all the food we buy in Canada, and the Competition Bureau did nothing to prevent that from happening.

10 Dollar Butter is pure Cartel.

Ross Coulthart’s Follow Up to the UFO Whistleblower Special with David Grusch

Ross Coulthart conducted last night’s interview with UFO whistleblower David Grusch and immediately taped this follow up. I trust Coulthart

The whistleblower’s News Nation interview  aired last night. We did not as expected receive much by way of new information, except for that Vatican stuff. What matters is whether government officials will follow up on the testimony Grusch provided them which includes the contacts and other “juicy details” we are not yet privy to.

You can watch last nights video at the link it offers a good summary of last night’s Whistleblower interview – We are not alone: The UFO whistleblower speaks

Trudeau’s nasty plan to fight fire with carbon taxes

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau may not be a particularly moral creature, but he is smart. Having watched part of Canada catch fire and burn for six weeks – no doubt largely at the hands of arsonists – he swiftly blamed the situation on ‘climate change’ and proposed an extension of the carbon tax to ‘fix it’.

Smart? Hardly. Scummy? Yes. Trudeau is also using the carbon tax to fund the Ukraine war.
