Canadian Forces officers applaud speech slamming climate change policies, cancel culture, weak leaders

… Retired Lt.-Gen. Michel Maisonneuve, accepting a top defence award Nov. 9 in Ottawa, also took a swipe at leaders who he claimed divide rather than unite. While not specifically naming Prime Minister Justin Trudeau or Hillary Clinton, Maisonneuve said “can you imagine a military leader labelling half of his command as deplorables, fringe radicals and less-thans and then expect them to fight as one?”

Good for them.

49% believe Trudeau’s immigration plan will admit too many immigrants to Canada – Leger Poll

CANADIAN POLITICS: IMMIGRATION AND THE CARBON TAX

  • 49% of Canadians think the Government of Canada’s immigration plan will admit too many immigrants to Canada.
  • 75% of Canadians are concerned the immigration plan will result in excessive demand for housing and health and social services.
  • 77% of Canadians agree the carbon tax on gasoline, diesel and home heating fuels should be frozen until high inflation passes.

You can read the report here and the brief here.

This contradicts the bullshit polls put out by our scumbag corporate class suggesting Canadians just love the notion we need 100 million immigrants.

They lie because they are evil.

Defending our elections from Chinese interference should be a nonpartisan cause

At the ASEAN Summit in Cambodia this weekend, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was asked by Global News reporter Mackenzie Gray if he plans to bring up allegations of China’s interference in Canadian elections with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the upcoming G20 summit.

Mr. Trudeau demurred.

In this instance “demurred” may be understood to mean “Trudeau didn’t wish to jeopardize a possible opportunity to lick Xi’s arse.”

F.B.I. Had As Many As 8 Informants in Proud Boys, Court Papers Suggest

The F.B.I. had as many as eight informants inside the far-right Proud Boys in the months surrounding the storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, recent court papers indicate, raising questions about how much federal investigators were able to learn from them about the violent mob attack both before and after it took place.

The existence of the informants came to light over the past few days in a flurry of veiled court filings by defense lawyers for five members of the Proud Boys who are set to go on trial next month on seditious conspiracy charges connected to the Capitol attack.

New report on most stolen vehicles in Canada shows the ‘epidemic’ is not slowing

Do you drive a Honda CR-V, Lexus RX or a Ford F-150 pickup truck? Better look out the window and make sure it’s still there. More than any other vehicles on the road, those are being stolen and sent down the road to the Port of Montreal for shipment overseas, according to new insurance data.

“The proceeds of this illegal activity funds organized crime and terrorism, both domestically and internationally,” said Bryan Gast, vice-president of investigative services at Équité Association, a national non-profit that works with insurance companies to combat fraud.

‘A bewildering choice!’ RFK Jr. is ‘baffled’ by his family’s decision to “honor” Harry & Meghan with “human rights award”

RFK Jr. is ‘bewildered’ and ‘baffled’ by Harry and Meghan winning a prestigious human rights award from his family’s charity.

Speaking to DailyMail.com exclusively on Monday, he said it was however ‘still an encouraging step up’ from Anthony Fauci, who won the award two years ago on behalf of his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

‘It’s a bewildering choice but still an encouraging step up from 2020,’ RFJ Jr. said, referring to Fauci, about whom he has written a scathing book, and who he believes is a fraud.

ChiCom funded MPs agree to probe allegations of Chinese interference in federal elections

A multi-partisan group of MPs on the procedure and House affairs committee agreed Monday to probe claims that the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and its agents have interfered in the Canadian political process.

Citing unnamed sources, Global News reported last week that China was behind “a vast campaign of foreign inference” in Canadian politics.

That campaign reportedly included “a clandestine network” of candidates in the 2019 election, a movement to place “agents into the offices of MPs in order to influence policy,” an attempt to “co-opt and corrupt former Canadian officials to gain leverage in Ottawa” and a campaign to “punish Canadian politicians whom the People’s Republic of China views as threats to its interests.”

The New Gnostics

From neopaganism to cryptocurrency cults, the Internet today is full of strange quasi-faiths

In early 2022, a video-essay creator named Dan Olson uploaded a two-hour-long exposé to YouTube. “Line Goes Up—the Problem with NFTs” quickly became a viral sensation, accumulating nearly 9 million views as of August—an incredible number for a seemingly niche topic. (The acronym “NFT” stands for “non-fungible token,” the name of a very small subset of the still fairly obscure online cryptocurrency system.)

Olson had done his homework. The video begins with the real-estate crash of 2008, tracing not only how that crisis was allowed to happen but also the social and economic consequences that followed. From there, Olson explores the early days of the first cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, and its various features, promises, and problems. Olson moves on from Bitcoin to other digital currencies, such as Ethereum, but he wants to make a larger point than just identifying the idiosyncrasies and flaws of these technologies—he is interested in the social implications of “crypto” hype. The crypto world, according to Olson, is filled not only with hype but also with professional scammers, broken promises, predatory and antisocial behavior, desperation, greed—and rage. Rage at how the post-2008 world had turned out, rage at how the American dream doesn’t seem attainable anymore, rage at whomever and whatever could be blamed for robbing the people inside that online world of what they felt they were owed.

DEA’s most corrupt agent: Parties, sex amid ‘unwinnable war’

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) — José Irizarry accepts that he’s known as the most corrupt agent in U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration history, admitting he “became another man” in conspiring with Colombian cartels to build a lavish lifestyle of expensive sportscars, Tiffany jewels and paramours around the world.

But as he used his final hours of freedom to tell his story to The Associated Press, Irizarry says he won’t go down for this alone, accusing some long-trusted DEA colleagues of joining him in skimming millions of dollars from drug money laundering stings to fund a decade’s worth of luxury overseas travel, fine dining, top seats at sporting events and frat house-style debauchery.

So you did your best? Denial and delusion of the pandemic pushers

HOW can the words ‘Covid amnesty’ even be uttered whilst the NHS and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the US public health watchdog, are yet to lay down their arms?

I can quite see why the Covid-pushers would want free passes to exempt themselves from the consequences of their actions, under some crass slogan like ‘we acted from the best of intentions’.
