Pulling all-nighters to play online video games turned deadly for a teen in Thailand.
Piyawat Harikun, 17, was found slumped on a bedroom floor beside a computer desk by his devastated dad on Monday while he on school holidays, British tabloids report.
“I called his name and said ‘wake up, wake up’ but he did not respond,” said the teen’s father Jaranwit Harikun, according to the Daily Mail. “I could see he was dead.”
The teen’s desk had take-out boxes and a bowl of noodles, while a bottle of pop was found at his feet.
Medics that attended the scene concluded the gamer had died of a stroke in which they believe was due to staying up all night to play video games.

Jaranwit said he had warned his son about dangers of constant playing, but to no avail.
“My son was smart and always did great at school but he had a major problem with gaming addiction,” he said.
“I tried to warn him about his relentless long hours playing games and he promised to reduce it, but it was too late. He had already died before he had a chance to change.”

A 60-year-old woman has died after suffering a seizure, while choking during a lamington cake-eating contest in Queensland, Australia, on Sunday, according to local media.
The woman was participating in the competition at Beach House Hotel in Scarness, a coastal suburb off Hervey Bay at around 2 p.m. local time. The event was part of the celebrations for Australia Day, which marks the anniversary of the first fleet of British ships that landed in Port Harbour, New South Wales, on Jan. 26, 1788.
Cellphone video, obtained by Australia’s Channel 9 News, shows various competitors speed-eating the cake while gulping down water in-between servings.
According to news.com.au, one of the people in attendance wrote on Facebook that one of the competitors had died: “This lady shovelled the lamington into her mouth with no restraint … inhaled the coconut and arrested.
The woman was given CPR and taken to a nearby hospital but couldn’t be revived.
Lamington is made from squares of butter cake or sponge cake, which are covered in chocolate sauce and desiccated coconut.

LIE-beral handling of the Wuhan Corona Virus is damaging LIE-beral CREDIBILITY on the health front!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Oh what a tangled political web is woven when LIE-berals try to virtue signal their cultural values and their love of Soviet Socialism!!

Some months ago we witnessed a couple of Chinese scientists - collaborating at a Cdn institute - being QUIETLY ARRESTED AND DEPORTED after sending samples of some viruses back to China - for some ill defined reason!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At the time RCMP said little about what harm the guys might have done - but others whispered that China might be doing parallel research in order to develop ALTERNATE VERSIONS of viruses that could not be cured by western medicine!!

The speculation was that China might be trying to engineer a virus that only Chinese medicine could cure- and thus they could sell US THE CURE - at a HANDSOME PROFIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is worth recalling that China believes IT MUST HAVE 10 percent growth in its economy EVERY YEAR in order to satisfy the growing consumer desires of its people!! So we should ask - HOW FAR China will go to satisfy that NEED???????

Is the new Corona Virus - with its rather unique ability to be infectious even before a victim shows signs of infection revealing Chinese medical engineering that got out of control?? The new Corona virus is MUCH MORE INFECTIOUS BUT LESS DEADLY than the older SARS Corona Virus - and should ask - has it been ENGINEERED by Chinese to be that way???????????????

In RECENT news - there are reports online that BLAME China for creating the new Corona virus!! Are these reports written by CRANKS or are they right in their accusations??

WE know that China has reacted much more strongly to the new virus than they did to SARS - should we assume it is simply the natural reaction of a govt to a new disease - after learning hard lessons about SARS?? Or is the Chinese reaction MORE SINISTER - because it represents INSIDE KNOWLEDGE of how much more easily the new virus can be spread????????????????????

In related news - what a difference a few days makes - for the stories our LIE-beral overlords offer us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At the beginning of the week - our federal LIE-beral health minister Patty Hajdu appeared on tv to assure us that all was under control and that there was screening at Cdn airports that would catch suspected ill travellers before they could enter Canada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But then we heard of a traveller - showing signs of fever and illness - flying back from WUHAN - the disease epicentre - and breezing through the vaunted Cdn airport screening - without being obstructed - and of course the guy turned out to be infected with the Wuhan virus - and HIS WIFE ALSO IS INFECTED - and of course Cdn health officials are now chasing down everybody who was on the plane - SITTING WITHIN THREE ROWS of these passengers -while PRETENDING they have no worries about other passengers and crew who may have used he same washrooms as the infected guy - and of course they will also have to CHASE DOWN AND TEST every person that came in contact with an infected passenger - and any of those contacts in the wider Cdn society - grocery store cashiers, waiters in restaurants, cab drivers, passengers on trains, baggage handlers - ALL OF THEM ARE POTENTIAL VICTIMS of that one clown who breezed through our airport screening!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And his wife was NOT showing symptoms on the plane - but developed symptoms later - so how many people DID SHE INFECT before visibly falling ill?? The INSIDIOUS NATURE of the Wuhan Virus is that people become contagious BEFORE they show symptoms!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And the response of our LIE-beral health minister Hajdu to this HUGE THREAT is THIS::: “Oh well, airport screening really is not effective anyway”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WTF?????????????

IN RELATED NEWS - some LIE-beral minded DORKS began whining that using QUARANTINE to prevent disease spread was like “using an atomic bomb” on a minor issue - but of course that WAS BEFORE Wuhan Virus infected MORE PEOPLE WORLD WIDE than SARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Smug LIE-beral complacency breeds ILLNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And now we have Air Canada and others HALTING scheduled flights to China in a belated - after the horse escaped so lets close the barn door - reaction to growing public UNEASE!! And of course given the number of people who would WANT to fly to China right now - the airlines CAN CANCEL their China flights without losing a penny since NOBODY wants to travel there now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In related news - some Ontari-ow school boards- that happen to have substantial numbers of Chinese people in the community are asking that those who VISITED WUHAN recently to “SELF QUARANTINE”!! Meaning STAY HOME and out of community contact till they can be sure they are not infected!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And yet our always virtue signaling RACIST LIE-beral loons see asking for such self quarantining as RACIST since it singles out Chinese people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I SAY HELLO LIE-beral IDIOTS - the disease originated in China and those who are most likely to be infected are people WHO HAVE BEEN TO WUHAN or other Chinese cities with a substantial number of sick people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To QUARANTINE PEOPLE WHO HAVE possibly been exposed to the virus IS NOT RACIST - since it is SIMPLY A MATTER OF GEOGRAPHY and medicine!

LIE-berals are following the SAME PLAY BOOK that enabled SARS to do so much damage!! LIE-berals virtue signal race crap while sick people travel and infect others!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

During the SARS epidemic - some people such as myself RAGED that the airports continued to accept flights from infected regions - with NO real testing of passengers for possible illness - LIE-berals did not want to lose the tax gravy that would be lost by shutting down the airports!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LIE-berals also did not want to panic the public by revealing HOW DANGEROUS SARS REALLY WAS!! Thus LIE-berals DID NOT monitor those who were under quarantine and as a result - Toronto saw an initial wave of SARS deaths that was fading - until some people under quarantine GOT BORED AND WENT OUTSIDE and infected a new wave of victims!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The most egregious case was some guy who broke his quarantine to go to a funeral and in the process he infected a LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE!! LIE-berals are no more SERIOUS about quarantining sick people now than they were with SARS - and that casual crap is going to COST US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In related news - LIE-berals are planning to bring several hundred Cdns back from China - as soon as they can figure out WHAT IN HELL TO DO WITH THEM!!!!!!!

THE UGLY REALITY of LIE-beral rationing of health care IS NOW EXPOSED!!!
Wuhan virus patients CANNOT BE DEALT WITH USING STANDARD HALL WAY MEDICINE!!

WUHAN VIRUS PATIENTS need a level of QUARANTINE CARE and sanitation that WE CURRENTLY CANNOT PROVIDE in our rationed health care system!!!!

The Yankees are holding their returnees in an isolated air base- while the Australians have a handy isolated Island for their returnees - but what does Canada have to hold returnees?? Nothing of course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And OF COURSE THERE IS THE LARGER LIE-beral issue of WHO WILL PAY because the returnees come from various provinces and health care is a provincial deal - NOT a federal responsibility - thus our ability to return citizens to Canada is partly HAMSTRUNG by LIE-beral determination to DUCK THE BILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!

LIE-beral handling of the Wuhan Virus situation exposes ALL that is wrong with both Cdn health care and with LIE-beral political virtue signaling!!!!!!!!

LIE-berals are prepared to risk your kids lives - by suggesting it is RACIST to quarantine people who have traveled in the Wuhan area recently!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We should expect that the Wuhan virus will follow the same sort of path as SARS - that it will most heavily impact the very young and the elderly!! Your aged parents and your kids are the most likely victims -as is usual in ANY serious outbreak of disease!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It s just TOO BAD that LIE-berals are willing to risk so many lives and so much health care expense just so they can show the Beijing Butchers that Canada is THEIR PAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But then what else should we expect from LIE-berals whose leaders - such as Pierre Trudeau - have praised what Pierre called “The genius of Chairman Mao in rushing 30 million Chinese peasants to the gallows”!! And Our idiot Boy Justin Trudeau has told us “He likes the way the Chinese get things done” - and that Justin “admires the basic Chinese democracy”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cdn LIE-beral virtue signaling MAY JUST COST US MULTIPLE LIVES if Wuhan Virus is not handled MORE EFFECTIVELY than SARS WAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I NOMINATE Our idiot Boy Justin Trudope for this years Darwin Award!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Our idiot Boy is in the process of killing his own minority govt.......................................


his own political career .......................................



as well as exposing the MASSIVE HYPOCRISY behind FIFTY YEARS worth of LIE-beral policy........................


that was established by his VILE FATHER Pierre!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Consider:::::




Here is an article that paints a DIM PICTURE of LIE-beral efforts to resolve the native rail blockades in any sensible way!! With some comments of my own in brackets):

Planned meeting between feds, Wet’suwet’en now delayed due to Trudeau’s comments: chief

By Sean Boynton, from Global News

Published February 21, 2020

A Wet'suwet'en hereditary chief says a planned meeting with federal ministers may be delayed after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's "unfortunate" comments on the rail blockades crippling Canada's economy.

(What a SURPRISE!! As Our idiot Boy Justin becomes increasingly desperate - he actually stated it was time for the blockades to come down as ordered by various court injunctions - and native radicals promptly exposed LIE-beral impotence!!!!)

(Firstly the radials are SO ARROGANT - they refused to talk with our idiot PM unless the RCMP was removed from “their land”! Meaning NOT JUST the local reserve - but from the hundreds or thousands of square miles of territory hereditary chiefs are now claiming control over - beyond the reserve!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(No matter that those many miles of land have been listed as govt owned Crown Land for a century or more - and have been administered by provincial govta - this is the result of Pierre Trudope BUYING native votes with wild land claim ideas!! Natives have been encouraged by FIFTY YEARS of delusional LIE-beral policy TO DREAM BIG and grab at govt gravy regardless of cost or economic reality!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(The problem is that LIE-berals have dragged their feet so long on land claim settlements - because of the HUGE COST and public reaction to LIE-beral give aways in a SELFISH LIE-beral exchange for votes -that natives are now taking action to grab whatever they want that LIE-beals have encourged them to THINK WAS ON OFFER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(LIE-berals have ignited a RACE WAR IN CANADA - and fueled it with IDIOT talk of “native sovereignty” and with changes to the jury selection process that allows native thieves like Colton Boushie OFF THE HOOK!!!!!!!!!!)

(IN an MSN.CA poll - currently 73 percent of Cdns DO NOT BELIEVE Our idiot Boy can successfully negotiate with radical natives!! Considering that the radicals DO NOT ACCEPT ANY obligation to obey white law on “their lands” it seems highly unlikely that more LIE-beral bluster can bring peace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(The HUGE QUESTION that LIE-berals DO NOT want us to ask is this: “If LIE-berals do manage to BUY PEACE- then HOW BIG A BRIBE WILL BE PAID TO THE RADICALS for that ILLUSION OF PEACE?? And how badly will the new debt cripple our economy”?????)

Chief Na'Moks told Global News Radio CKNW Friday that he and the other four hereditary chiefs opposed to the Coastal GasLink pipeline project were speaking by phone with Crown–Indigenous Relations Minister Carolyn Bennett and Indigenous Services Minister Marc Miller, and had agreed to a meeting set for Monday.

But around the time the chiefs and ministers were speaking, he says Trudeau gave his press conference, in which he called for the blockades to come down.

(In related news - Andrew Scheer says Trudeau has emboldened anti-energy protesters!! I suggest Scheer is ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

It's put things into a bit of confusion, and it may have even delayed the discussions that we had scheduled for next week," Na'Moks said.

(That is native speak meaning “we will not talk unless you first agree to totally surrender”!! Any attempt to minimize the impotence and hypocrisy of LIE-beral policy will be shot down!! Native radicals DO NOT wish to talk - they wish to DICTATE!!! And even Our idiot Boy knows the radical price for peace will be WAY TOO HIGH!!!!!!!!!!!)

(In related news - Our idiot Boy is apparently IN SYMPATHY with the radicals as he has told us he “wants to use carbon taxes to drive the price of fossil fuel so high that we stop using it”!! But native radicals do not seem to want us to stop using fossil fuels -after all - natives use fossil fuel themselves and are actually MORE DEPENDENT on it that city dwellers - radicals just want us to PAY THEM A MUCH BIGGER PRICE!! The ugly word BLACKMAIL applies to native radical goals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(Natives rely much more on aircraft to travel than other Cdns since so many reserves are hard to access unless one flies in!! Ice roads up rivers are only a seasonal solution!! And many reserves rely on diesel generators for electric power! And as we all know - natives LOVE their pickup trucks, atv`s and snowmobiles - natives NEED gas for their lifestyle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

"We want this done peacefully, we want it done honourably and honestly. And it was so unfortunate that the prime minister of this country could not wait 10 minutes [to be briefed on the discussions]."

(What discussions?? Ordering RCMP out because hereditary chiefs - who ARE NOT ELECTED and who represent ONLY a modest native MINORITY - with the majority generally WANTING the pipelines and jobs that come with them - do not accept the legal authority of white govt and that nasty fact IS NOT UP FOR NATIVE DISCUSSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Trudeau said his government had done its best to end the rail blockades that have been held across the country for two weeks, but the responsibility now lies with Indigenous leaders and with police to seek a peaceful resolution.

(In truth the Trudope LIE-berals are powerless to end the blockades in any fashion that would not IMMEDIATELY EXPOSE MASSIVE LIE-beral hypocrisy!! LIE-berals are caught in a MUCH LARGER political sh+t show in that they have the support of a number of non native environmentalist radicals who all supported Our idiot Boyn when he told them he would KILL the Cdn oil patch - and now that the cost of killing oil is being so publicly exposed - Trudope is facing a substantial public backlash that his minority govt will NOT SURVIVE in the long term !!!!!!)

Hereditary chiefs want RCMP removed from Wet'suwet'en Nation before allowing trains to pass through territory.

(So No white cops and not even any trains!! But I suppose white supplied and operated snow plows are acceptable so radicals can travel easily on white built roads?? And what of white fishermen and tourists - will they be allowed as long as they spend money at some native biz or if they buy PERMITS from native vendors operating in the same way as Mafia thugs selling “protection” to shop owners????)

Trudeau stopped short of ordering RCMP to move in and clear those blockades, while admitting those in Ontario are under the jurisdiction of the Ontario Provincial Police.

(As I have said before - LIE-berals are trying DESPERATELY to share the blame with Doug Ford by condemning him for not clearing the Tyendinaga blockade!! But of course Ford has NO AUTHORITY over Tyendinaga Reserve and NO ability to negotiate settlements involving issues in other provinces!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(It is GROSSLY hypocritical of LIE-berals to smear Ford for failing to act - when it is LIE-beral failures that are encouraging protestors across the country!! As always LIE-berals want others to do the heavy lifting - while they sit back and watch then come in afterwards and virtue signal and criticize any force or violence that may have been needed to clear out radical Mohawks who have a LONG HISTORY of shooting at cops!! LIE-beral cowardice has hit a NEW LOW!!!!!!!!)

(LIE-berals much prefer to critique the performance of others BUT RUN IN PANIC if faced with any examination of their behaviour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Na'Moks said Trudeau's comments will have caused any "predicament" that may come in the future, including delaying our outright scuttling talks between the chiefs and the ministers.

(Na`Moks has just signalled CLEARLY that there will be no “talks” - however he and his radical pals WILL BE WILLING TO DICTATE TERMS for the surrender of the Cdn govt - if Our idiot Boy choses to show up and listen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

"We can't jump into this after the statements of the prime minister threatening our cousins, the Mohawk, so it will definitely be delayed," he said. "Our chiefs are going to have to stay longer with the Mohawk, because they were standing in solidarity with us.

(Uh huh and the solution to this native radical CRAP is going end up looking a lot like the end of the Ipperwash Occupation - cops moving in - backed up by SNIPERS WILLING TO SHOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(HOW SAD that Our idiot Boy and his LIE-beral losers LEARNED NOTHING from the Oka Crisis - nor from the Ipperwash mess that was a DIRECT RESULT of LIE-beral PM Chretien IGNORING A REASONABLE NATIVE REQUEST to have land RETURNED TO THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(Reserve land near Ipperwash was taken by Mackenzie King LIE-berals during WW2 for an army training base - apparently the terrain looked similar to where Cdns would end up fighting - and it WAS A LIE-beral promise that the land would be GIVEN BACK AFTER THE WAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(And of course a LIE-beral promise is worthless and even though the base was no longer in use - the land WAS NOT RETURNED - so natives occupied the nearby very popular Provincial Park - which caused economic damage as thousands of tourists who used to flock to the park went elsewhere !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(As the months passed and another summer season of costly local losses loomed - Mike Harris ordered the cops in to clear the protestors - while LIE-beral Chretien - who COULD HAVE RESOLVED THE MESS - because it was federal LIE-berals who controlled the old base - it sat back and watched!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(Later - when the Dalton McGinty LIE-beral Ontari-owe govt was elected -they held an Inquiry which excoriated Harris and the OPP for their actions!! Such is the value of a LIE-beral promise and LIE-beral justice!! And the Ipperwash Inquiry is seen by cops as a valid reason NOT to rush forward UNLESS politicians are TOTALLY ON BOARD and willing to bear the potential cost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(Radical natives are making their political choices - KNOWING that Our idiot Boy has tied his own hands with decades of IDIOT LIE-beral policy and kow-towing to radical natives!! All that LIE-beral bluster about “Cdn “systemic racists” and “white privilege” are coming home to roost - and Our idiot Boy has NO CLUE how to respond!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

He has sure dropped the ball this time. I would predict if ALL those blockades aren't down Monday morning his political career might be toast! It might actually be anyway...……………………….no "teeth"!

‘Mad’ Mike Hughes dies in homemade rocket disaster on mission to prove Earth is flat

By Alex Horton
Feb. 23, 2020 at 11:20 a.m. EST

In December, buttressed by his conviction and advances in homemade rocketry, “Mad” Mike Hughes flipped on a camera and fantasized about the moment when he shows mankind that it lives on a verdant disk.

The plan was simple: fire into the sky on a steam-powered rocket and trigger a balloon to carry him to the Karman line, the 62-mile-high barrier that separates the atmosphere and the cold vacuum of space, filming the entire way. “For three hours, the world stops,” Hughes said during a live stream.

Hughes, a self-styled daredevil, flat-Earth theorist and limousine stuntman, died Saturday when his jury-rigged contraption propelled him on a column of steam, spiraled through the air and cratered into the sagebrush outside Barstow, Calif. He was 64.

As I have said before - ALL LIE-beral policy IS FAILING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



And I do sincerely believe that once this LIE-beral minority FALLS.........................


then Our idiot Boy WILL BE GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Consider:::::::


Here is an article illustrating how little real influence Our idiot Boy and his loser LIE-berals have over native radicals!! With some comments of my own in brackets):

Saskatoon protest springs up, even after Trudeau orders blockades torn down

From The Cdn Press , Published February 22, 2020

More protests in solidarity with Wet'suwet'en hereditary chiefs sprung up on Saturday, a day after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pivoted to take a sterner tone with Indigenous leaders he blames for halting train service across much of Canada.

(Quite obviously the radicals DO NOT BELIEVE Our idiot Boy!! If he were to take strong action to end the blockades, he would be violating DECADES of LIE-beral policy!! Our idiot Boy would profoundly OFFEND all manner of LIE-beral supporters - who were stupid enough to believe him when he promised to KILL the entire Cdn oil patch; promised “genuine reconciliation’ with native radicals; and promised to cut back on “white privilege” and “systemic racism”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(Now matters have COME TO A BOIL!! Our idiot Boy can NO LONGER slide by with sappy virtue signalling platitudes!! IT is time to SHOW AND TELL what LIE-beral values really look like IN ACTION!! And it is time to PRESENT THE BILL for the cost of implementing all those LIE-beral platitudes!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(How tragic for Our idiot Boy that his minority govt CANNOT LONG SURVIVE such a public exposure of costs and failings and GROSS HYPOCRISY!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Crowds of protesters rallied at the Ontario legislature in Toronto, carrying signs that called for RCMP to leave Wet'suwet'en land and for the federal government to respect Indigenous sovereignty. Another rail-line protest sprung up in Saskatoon.

(Even as protestors ramp up their efforts to make Our idiot Boy look even more foolish - CBC News has video of a Wet`suwet`en voice of reason - meaning THERE ARE MANY NATIVES who see the jobs that come with the pipelines as a GENUINE WAY OUT OF POVERTY AND UNEMPLOYMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(Our idiot Boy is caught - the pipelines WILL PROVIDE JOBS for natives as many desire - but cancelling the pipelines will do TERRIBLE DAMAGE to Cdn democracy since it will cripple the concept of majority rule - by allowing an un-elected minority DICTATE to us all!! Even worse - THERE ARE NO OTHER JOBS available to replace the jobs lost by pipeline cancellation!! Not only will many natives be disappointed - there will be HUGE SPIN OFF consequences in the main stream white community as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(The consequences for main stream Canada WILL NOT be confined to Alberta since the builders and maintainers of the pipeline will need to buy all manner of products - from tools to vehicles made in other provinces!! And of course the sale of natural gas and oil to markets outside Canada will bring new tax revenue to Ottawa and make it easier to manage our massive LIE-beral debts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(If all the benefits on offer are killed off by a radical minority - CDNS KNOW WHO TO BLAME - meaning that IDIOT BOY and his loser LIE-berals!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Local police said they were monitoring the protest along the railway tracks, and a statement from the office of Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe said a train was allowed to pass through the protest area as scheduled.

(Yes- as a result of regular LIE-beral harassment of cops just doing their jobs - cops have become VERY GOOD at “monitoring” but ARE SHY of taking action - unless they get very precise and explicit INSTRUCTIONS from their political masters and the masters are more interested in issuing VAGUE platitudes that are more useful for ass covering than for resolving radical native insurrection that challenges the rule of law and exposes LIE-beral FAILURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Moe's office said the protest must remain lawful and that transport routes cannot be disrupted by illegal blockades.

Trudeau said Friday the blockades must come down and said injunctions to clear the rail lines must be enforced. He pointed the finger at Indigenous leadership, who he said have not been receptive to his government's attempts at negotiation.

(And why should radicals respond to anything LESS THAN TOTAL LIE-beral surrender?? Blackmail is the radical order of the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

The barricades, including one on Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory in eastern Ontario, are in response to a move by the RCMP to clear protesters who had been blocking access to a pipeline worksite on Wet'suwet'en territory in northern British Columbia.

(And of course the blockade was imposed AFTER LIE-berals did a huge new effort to CONSULT AND BRIBE local communities into accepting the pipeline - but blackmailers always COME BACK FOR MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Canada's Prime Minister Trudeau Canada's Prime Minister Trudeau Supporters who gathered near the Ontario blockade said they were disheartened by Trudeau's strong words against the protests — with one saying it was Trudeau's shift in tone that drove her to make the 40-kilometre trek to the rail line.

"I've been meaning to come, but with what he said yesterday, I just said, OK I'm going," said Sarah Dear, who brought small gifts from Mexico she said were symbolic for Indigenous communities there.

"I voted for Trudeau back in 2015 because he promised meaningful reconciliation, and as far as I'm concerned he's broken that promise," she said.

(Radicals believe that reconciliation is a LIE-beral word meaning “total surrender to native demands”!! And in traditional native fashion - there IS NO CENTRAL NATIVE AUTHORITY to keep the rank and file in line!! Thus - as LIE-berals have proved - it is possible to have agreement with the majority of natives and still end up with blockades since traditional native governance has NO dispute resolution mechanism - and radicals refuse to recognize the white authority - this is a formula for POLITICAL CHAOS AND PARALYSIS - because NOBODY is in charge any more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Cory Chalk, who lives on Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory but isn't Indigenous, said he, too, felt Trudeau was striking the wrong tone and making the wrong moves.

"He's not talking to the right people still — trying to lay down the hammer is not going to work," he said. "This is a whole generation standing up against a lot of things that have been done wrong."

(Yes- a “whole generation” steeped in LIE-beral BULLSH+T and utterly confused about the reality of their place in the world - and convinced that any attempt to expose them to reality IS SOME SORT OF RACIST PLOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

He said if police tried to dismantle the blockade with force, he thinks they would be met with force back.

( I agree- Mohawks have a long history of armed confrontation with cops!! How- ever western tribes have not been so militant - but that may change!!!!!!!!)

Increased attention is on Canadian police forces now that Trudeau has ordered the enforcement of anti-blockade injunctions.

A Wet'suwet'en hereditary chief said protesters won't tear down the barricades themselves unless, and until, the Mounties get off their traditional territory and Coastal GasLink halts construction on the natural-gas pipeline that crosses their land.

(Yes - “traditional land” is a phrase used by radicals to justify a MASSIVE LAND GRAB - taking Crown Lands BACK from white govt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Chief Woos of the Grizzly House said Indigenous leadership will only begin negotiating with the Canadian government under those same conditions. But Trudeau said injunctions ordering the rail lines be cleared must be obeyed and the law must be enforced.

On Thursday, the RCMP in B.C. sent a letter to the traditional leaders of the Wet'suwet'en Nation, telling them the force intends to move its officers off the access road and station them instead in the nearby town of Houston, but Woos said a letter isn't good enough.

(A letter is not accepted?? That means deliberate insult and more political chaos!!)

Protesters who'd been blockading a CN Rail line in St-Lambert, Que., south of Montreal since Wednesday cleared out Friday night shortly after riot police arrived on scene ready to enforce an injunction to clear the tracks. But the blockade of a critical east-west rail line on Tyendinaga territory remains in place — and more protests are planned for March 20 along the borders of Manitoba.

Ontario Provincial Police have said they don't intend to break up the Tyendinaga protest in the immediate future.

But Trudeau said the inconvenience to Canadians has gone on long enough, given that the blockades have halted rail lines for weeks.

"Let us be clear: all Canadians are paying the price. Some people can't get to work, others have lost their jobs," he told a news conference Friday. "Essential goods … cannot get where they need to go."

(And Our idiot Boy is paralysed by the impending damage that will be done to his minority govt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(8 March 2018, New Jersey) A Wanaquer man died in a vehicle fire after he drove around barricade cones and onto live power wires in Franklin Lakes. A good son, Anthony G. was en-route to his father's house to shovel the driveway.
After the second nor'easter storm in a week, hundreds of thousands were left without power. Utility crews worked overtime to deal with downed trees and electric lines. Traffic snarls and frustrated motorists were everywhere.

Anthony did not want to lose time to a detour! According to police, our winner simply navigated around bright orange traffic cones warning motorists of a hazardous downed wire on Route 208.

Responding to calls, officers arrived at 9AM to find the vehicle fully engulfed in flames. A live power line was sputtering in the roadway near the vehicle. The fire totally gutted the car, and the driver was pronounced dead at the scene. Ironically this Darwin Award winner was employed as a New York City electrician.
