California legislators have not only cut ties with reality—failing to see that they’re heading for ever more blackouts—they also want to cut their citizens’ last lifeline to reliable power when blackouts inevitably occur.

More than 75 per cent of Canadians think the federal government should ban Huawei Technologies from this country’s 5G telecommunications networks in a new Nanos Research poll that finds hardening attitudes toward the Chinese state and business relations with Beijing.
Prestigious art museum fires volunteers because most of them are white
“Old white ladies” are “no longer allowed to volunteer to give museum tours,” says Libby Emmons on Twitter. She’s referring to how the Art Institute of Chicago fired all 122 of its (unpaid and volunteer) docents because they aren’t sufficiently ‘diverse.’

Canadian auto production ‘being hit hard’ by global semiconductor shortage
To be an autoworker in Canada this year has meant living with a fair bit of uncertainty.
“There’s no consistency,” said Mark Sciberras, president of the Unifor local branch at Ford Motor Co.‘s Oakville, Ont. operations. “One week to the next, you don’t know if you’re working.”
The Oakville plant, like so many auto assembly lines globally, has seen its production start and stop numerous times this year because of the severe semiconductor chip shortage caused by pandemic-related production issues and a surge in demand for electronics.

Non-vaccinated nurses will have their licenses suspended on Friday, Order of Nurses says
The Quebec Order of Nurses (OIIQ) announced on Monday that it will suspend the practice permits of its members who have not been vaccinated against COVID-19 as of next Friday.
The decision comes three days after Quebec Minister of Health and Social Services Christian Dubé urged the various professional orders of health-care workers to suspend the licenses of those who have not been vaccinated.
The minister added on Friday that recalcitrants who thought they could work elsewhere might be in for a surprise in the coming days.

Briant: Canadian military’s bungled propaganda campaigns should be a lesson across NATO
Several Canadian Forces investigations into domestic propaganda and influence operations recently concluded with the results pointing to findings that should concern both Canadians as well as members of the public in other democracies. Those investigations focused on a series of oversight and policy failures on military “influence” activities aimed at Canadians.

Having lost all public confidence, it’s time for Dr. Anthony Fauci to step down
The time has come.
To be fair, it likely came a long time ago, but in an effort not to be lumped in with the conspiracy theorists and partisans, most of us held our tongues and bided our time. Now, it’s so glaring and incontrovertible that people of good will and good sense must turn up the pressure on public authorities to demand that Dr. Anthony Fauci resign his post and step down as the chief medical adviser for President Joe Biden.
Disney Reportedly Beginning ‘Sticker’ System to Identify Vaccinated Workers on Production Sets
Hollywood is leading the way in turning the United States into a caste system; vaccination will determine how close one can be to actors and actresses. According to The Hollywood Reporter the Walt Disney Company will begin a new sticker system to identify those who are vaccinated against COVID-19.
China Plans Ban on Private-Sector Involvement in Media, Publishing, Online Platforms
The ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has set out plans to ban private investment in the media, amid an ongoing program of regulatory changes aimed at tightening state control over the private sector.
Under proposed rule changes posted to its official website on Oct. 8, the State Development and Reform Commission (SDRC) said it was soliciting public opinion on adding private sector investment in media organizations to a list of banned investments.
China denies WHO access to bat caves in search for COVID origins
China has denied the World Health Organization access to bat caves and wildlife farming areas in a region six hours west of Wuhan — as it emerged that nearby wet markets were banned from selling live animals just days before Beijing acknowledged a new virus had been detected, according to a report.
WHO scientists have been trying to access hundreds of caves that contain bats in Enshi prefecture in Hubei province — west of the Chinese city where COVID-19 first emerged, the Washington Post said Monday.
The Left’s Psychiatric Weapon
It was from the 1940s through the 1970s, the height of the Cold War, that Soviet authorities notoriously politicized the field of psychiatry. One should always be very suspicious of any government official appealing directly to the “science.” Politicians know science like they know ethics. In 1963, Russian-Jewish poet and essayist Joseph Brodsky was twice placed in a psychiatric facility against his will and ultimately charged with the crime of “social parasitism” (according to the lawful authorities, not making sufficient contributions to society). He was eventually expelled from the country.
Red China Tried To Go Green, Now It’s Going Dark
China went from dominating green energy to begging Americans for coal.
Last year, President Xi Jinping announced that Communist China was going to go carbon neutral by 2060. Like every Communist 5-year-plan, it began with lies and ended in disaster.
The 14th Renewable Energy Development Five Year Plan would have China dominate the green energy industry and increase its share of non-fossil fuel energy from 15% to 20%.
That was last year. This year, China is importing American coal to keep the lights on in its cities.
What turns women into witches?
The powerless have always wanted to be feared
When a society is transitioning from enchantment to disenchantment, when its population is paradoxically both godly and capitalist, it is not uncommon to hear accusations of witchcraft. In 1651, in Boston, Massachusetts, Hugh Parsons and his wife Mary were charged with making a covenant with the devil; 30 years later, in Bideford, Devon, Temperance Lloyd, Susanna Edwards, and Mary Trembles were similarly accused. Both cases are unusual: the Parsons case — in which a confessed witch accused her husband of the same crime — was one of the first witchcraft trials in New England; Lloyd, Edwards, and Trembles — the so-called “Bideford witches” — were the last witches to be executed in Old England.
The Left’s Dave Chappelle Problem
Dave Chappelle thinks for himself and doesn’t mind if you do too — which is why Woke World wants Netflix to cancel him.
Dave Chappelle, arguably America’s best loved comedian, apparently slept through his Intersectionality 101 class, and his would-be woke masters are purple with rage.
The LGBTQ advocacy group GLAAD joined with others in “condemning” Chappelle’s newly released Netflix special, “The Closer.” Said the GLAAD press release: “Dave Chappelle’s brand has become synonymous with ridiculing trans people and other marginalized communities.”
‘I think there’s life out there’: powerful radio antenna used for first time to find exoplanets
New techniques for spotting previously hidden planets could reveal whether there is life out there – or not.
Australian scientists are part of a team that has for the first time used a radio antenna to find exoplanets, which means planets beyond our solar system.
Using the world’s most powerful antenna – the Low Frequency Array in the Netherlands (Lofar) – the team has discovered radio signals from 19 distant red dwarf stars.
Four of them are emitting signals that indicate that planets are orbiting them.
