wtf
Dear Weekend Jolter,
Who’s up for a round of armchair sociology?
Say the world is struck by a calamity unprecedented in the modern age, and, in response, good citizens are instructed to work from home if possible and keep their children home from school; college grads are allowed to pause student-loan payments; and landlords are told not to evict tenants for falling behind on rent.
A man has who had been nailed to a cross 35 times to mark Good Friday has said he is too old to keep being crucified.
Ruben Enaje, a 63-year-old carpenter and sign painter, has registered for the real-life crucifixion’s in a village north of Manila, in the Philippines, for the last 35 years.
Rebel farmers have long complaned about the federation that sets Canada’s prices. Now their bitter dispute has descended into vengeance and conspiracy theories
When the federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers announced that stocks of its strategic reserve were running low, Gabriel Jort saw it as a plot. The “cartel”, as he calls the group, was up to its usual dirty tricks.
“It’s a mafia, there’s no other way to put it,” claimed the farmer, 44, who makes about 35,000 litres of maple syrup a year. “There’s been so many weird things, shady things, it’s hard to really believe anything they say.”
Just off a country road in rural Ontario, a short drive from Barrie, Kerry McLaven’s decades-old machinery is revving up for the summer.
The “machines” are trees — rows of white pines, cut and grafted from the best trees McLaven and her predecessors could find, now put to work in this eight hectare plot near Lisle, Ont.
“They are beautiful and they provide a habitat … but their real role is to produce seed and so they are seed machines,” said McLaven, CEO of Forest Gene Conservation Association of Ontario, which manages this seed orchard.
Trudeau lies to everyone, friend or foe.

The ratio is worth reading.
Using “chestfeeding” instead of “breastfeeding” desexualizes the word and makes it more inclusive to non-binary and transfolks.
And if there is one thing I am, it’s inclusive. pic.twitter.com/3FSDu9pehm

There’s no reason why we can’t combine Easter with Trans Day of Visibility as this church does. pic.twitter.com/rgHimUhiP7

It was a snub of biblical proportions that did not go unnoticed by Canada’s 19 million Christians.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, after all, would never miss offering good wishes to any other religion at the start of their most sacred holidays.
Too busy whoring himself to Muslims.
An evangelical Christian teacher who was jailed for refusing court orders faces a disciplinary hearing after ‘verbally abusing a Judge’.
Enoch Burke launched into an outburst during his High Court appearance last week.
He was jailed in 2022 for breaching a High Court injunction ordering him to stay away from Wilson Hospital School in County Westmeath.
The teacher was suspended after he refused to refer to a pupil as their preferred pronoun.
That courtroom needs more than abusing.
The politics surrounding the price on carbon have reached a fever pitch. The latest increase in the pollution price, and the dollar-for-dollar jump in rebates that are built into the revenue-neutral system, have been so clouded by partisan posturing that basic facts are being ignored — or deliberately misrepresented.

Canada’s Royal Canadian Mounted Police are warning that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s policies have been so disastrous that its citizens may soon engage in a violent, populist revolt. When you pair this news with a recent video of Chrystia Freeland, Canada’s powerful ‘Minister of Everything’ twitching and smirking at a political event, it’s enough to suggest that we really need to start worrying about our northern neighbor.

Horrific footage revealed the moment an angry mob dragged a suspected child kidnapper and killer out of a police car and beat her to death in the Mexican tourist town of Taxco.
The unnamed woman was being hauled away by police, after she had allegedly been caught on surveillance video helping a man dump the body of Camila Gomez Ortega who had disappeared Wednesday.
The villagers dragged the woman out of the police car and began wailing on her and tearing at her clothes.
"I don't know a single person in Canada who's not struggling right now"
"Everyone is on the brink of LOSING everything"
"We're literally just working to scrape by to survive"
"It's almost impossible to leave Canada because that's expensive"
