    Exactly What is "Woke?"

    Sounds similar to the definition of DEI’d, & #2: 2. Forcing an employee to go through Diversity training because they are white heterosexual and male. I knew I’d seen that somewhere today. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Dei%27d

    Exactly What is "Woke?"

    When this term became popularized, initially the meaning of this term was when an individual become more aware of the social injustice. Or basically, any current affairs related like biased, discrimination, or double-standards….but… Being a modern usage of an older term, I went to the...

    Rapporteur David Johnson, Eminent Canadian

    Earlier this month, the Conservative Party was granted intervenor standing during the first phase looking into foreign interference in the 2019 and 2021 elections. This means it can present evidence and suggest witnesses but will not have the power to cross-examine witnesses or gain access to...

    LILLEY: CBC loses lawsuit against Tories while wasting your money

    A CBC X account that is no longer active made its first post in more than seven months to “clarify” that a teleprompter error was to blame for a reporter stating on-air that “Israel started the Hamas war.” Guest host J.P. Tasker made the statement during a recent episode of CBC’s Power &...

    Electric shock: A new study found that EVs were more expensive to fuel than gas-powered cars at the end of 2022

    Different nation with different issues. Don’t want to come across as just a grumpy Gus but Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault said in April the government’s spending commitment on climate change is north of $200 billion — so far. Parliamentary Budget Officer Yves Giroux said last year that...

    Electric shock: A new study found that EVs were more expensive to fuel than gas-powered cars at the end of 2022

    Did you read the linked article? Just curious. Canadians, many of us, are being chewed away at financially, and those with the least financial safety margins were the most affected first….& then those are still left standing with the least financial safety margins where the next fall, and so on...

    WE really need to get rid of this guy

    Oh…my…God…you know, when you see a picture of Morgan Freeman, above a Written paragraph…& you can read that paragraph, but hear it narrated in his voice? I’ve just experienced that reading the above paragraph but I’m hearing it narrated in my head by Freeland…in her shrill whiny condescending...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    When Canada starts getting thanked by terrorists for being supportive allies then it’s safe to say our foreign policy has hit an all time low. Ghazi Hamad, the senior Hamas leader who celebrated the Oct. 7 attacks against Israel and promised to carry them out “again and again”, singled out...

    Trudeau announces Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia

    On Tuesday, Ottawa’s official Islamophobia watchdog, Amira Alghawaby, cited figures from the Toronto Police saying that while antisemitic hate crimes were up 200 per cent, hate crimes against Muslims and Arabs had spiked by 900 per cent. The statement makes it seem like hate incidents against...

    Electric shock: A new study found that EVs were more expensive to fuel than gas-powered cars at the end of 2022

    “I have to question whether or not Steven Guilbeault is trying to cause riots,” Smith (Danielle Smith, Alberta’s Premier) said. “Imagine two years from now when somebody goes into a dealership and is told, ‘Sorry, our quota of gas-powered vehicles is sold for this year. Your only option is an...

    Kelly McParland: How decades of Liberal indifference created Danielle Smith

    The Trudeau Liberals are on their way to inciting a consumer revolt, said Alberta Premier Danielle Smith in a year-end interview. If Canadians are about to become unruly, can you blame them? This is, after all, a federal government that never saw a dollar in your pocket that it wasn’t itching...

    Two years into the Trudeau 2.0 Minority Term, which day will Justin call the election that only he wants?

    Oh coarse it will, and be buried by another scandal, and that one by another, and that one by another, etc… Liberals MPs spent Wednesday evening doing damage control in the wake of news reports about a politically embarrassing video of a Palestinian terror leader thanking Canada for supporting...

    Refugee/Migrant Crisis

    Sort of…..about 36% of Canadians in 2019 & 2021 apparently lined up for handouts? Does that count? Actually, I know he has a couple, or Sophie told him that he does.

    “Wokeness” in Canada and elsewhere…

    I thought gender and pronouns weren’t connected or something like that? Then “South Facing Pervert” is the new one to me, and it’s even confounded the urban dictionary. 😳

    “Wokeness” in Canada and elsewhere…

    I’m still partial to the pronouns of “Doctor” and “Captain” (in the nautical prairie sense) at this point… until I self identify otherwise.

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Hamas and other Palestinian factions have rejected talks on releasing Israeli hostages until Israel stops its military onslaught on Gaza. A statement published by Hamas on Thursday claimed to reflect a “Palestinian national decision”. It said there “should be no talk about prisoners or exchange...

    It's Climate Change I tell'ya!! IT'S CLIMATE CHANGE!!

    Ugh…ok…BC already has Hydro power. Because it only covered 80% of their baseload this last year does not mean they’re gonna throw them out the window, drain the dams, light them on fire, etc…. BC also has lots (LOTS!!) of its own natural gas… so it’s not like it’s not a viable option. BC is...

    Two years into the Trudeau 2.0 Minority Term, which day will Justin call the election that only he wants?

    The Liberals have been accusing the Conservatives of "turning their backs on Ukraine," and now the party is making that argument in attack ads running in more than a dozen Prairie ridings that are home to large Ukrainian communities. (The Liberals…or NDP/Liberals with their non-coalition...

    It's Climate Change I tell'ya!! IT'S CLIMATE CHANGE!!

    Well, that is interesting. Drought proof. Reliable. Wouldn’t want that… Their options are pretty limited. Empathy from one of Canada’s only two landlocked provinces… Huh…. Wasn’t there a kerfuffle in recent memory, with respect to trying to get a pipeline for natural gas to the Pacific from...
