    Black Lives Matter-Ugliness of Racism.

    The question is, who was threatening whom (?) and who felt threatened? Like “Clint Eastwood” from a police movie from the ‘70’s, Dirty Harry style. Or not been in front (or behind) of a running vehicle to start with. I think that was Felony Retarded on the Officer's part. What prevented him...

    Black Lives Matter-Ugliness of Racism.

    You can’t shoot to disable the car if you’re standing 2-3’ in front of it. That leaves one target. What happened to basic training like “don’t stand directly in front (or behind) of a running car with someone behind the wheel?” Always OFFSET yourself from that situation…I took a basic 5hr...

    What are you doing on this Labour Day long weekend?

    Weird genetics. I’m 6’2” & only 200lbs so I’m on the smaller side.

    Frick…you’ve no idea…or maybe you do. This is our Son & his little one. When he was younger, the buffet places would get nervous seeing us coming back again knowing I only had to pay $0.70/year for his age (their policy): Then below is one of the Grandkids we’ve got this weekend, and the...

    One of our sets of Kids & Grandkids in BC (Coldstream) have bears going through their yard & neighbourhood regularly. Just use common (bear-aware) sense & everyone can co-exist. Right to “Bear Arms” thing…

    April Fools!! Here's your Carbon Tax F#ckers!!!

    There used to be a convention in Canada that politicians didn’t criticize our own country while they were visiting other countries. Primarily, this was applied to opposition politicians because there would be no reason for a government MP to criticize Canada on foreign soil. But last week...

    CTV reporter injured covering crash seeks $15.7M in lawsuit

    I think, assume I guess, without knowing the details, that you’re both on the money here. In the transport game, we hire Leased Operators (basically freelance, but we have to arrange their insurance if they’re using our DOT# & MC# & running authorities, etc…so that we are tied to them if they...

    First of three or maybe four loads. Got it loaded just before we ran out of light last night. The kids got to wear work gloves and get sweaty and play with dangerous bladed tools. Each got a $20 bill like men. Then some chill time on the deck…. I think I’m gonna let the boys sleep in this...

    “Wokeness” in Canada and elsewhere…

    Don’t you mean Birthing Person as you’re alluding to what in darker days was called a Mother? She may be on the right side of the debate, and you, or I, might be on the wrong side. Only time will tell, regardless of your or my personal opinions or beliefs.

    “Wokeness” in Canada and elsewhere…

    48 hours before the project was due from what I understand. The 48 hours before the project was due being told it had to be scrapped and she was to start over on a different topic for the project would have been part of “the fuck” was her issue there. The Prof gave her the reason that her...

    2SLGBTQQIA+

    Isn’t this just balance against the school system arbitrarily deciding what a parent does or doesn’t need to know about their own child? That’s the way I’m seeing it anyway. How many parents of School children where involved in the policies that seems to creep up regarding the decision to deny...

    Got some of the Grandkids dropped off yesterday. Watched movies on the deck last night. One has Basketball School while the other had Football practice today overlapping. It’s over 30°C at this point in the day so we’re just gonna chill for a bit. BBQ some smokies & burgers in a few hours, then...

    Crickets. That’s what you will hear if you are waiting for a public inquiry into Chinese interference in the 2019 and 2021 federal general elections. Crickets. Towards the end of the last Parliamentary session, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau famously dangled the prospect of actually having such...

    Court over this lawsuit doesn’t start until next week, so only time will tell at this point. As a parent & grandparent, I do have a bias in this one.

    “Wokeness” in Canada and elsewhere…

    Here’s a weird one: In the TikTok, Krolczyk alleged that she was given a failing grade on a proposal for her Gender in Pop Culture course. She planned to write a paper in which she would argue that trans athletes competing in women's sports were taking opportunities away from "biological...
