    Frigid weather descends on B.C. and Alberta

    Yeah, it’s just gross. I have not started my 30 year old truck in four days, but it is plugged in with a battery minder on it. I did preemptively spend about 10 minutes yesterday just getting the snow banks off of it…. Then I shovelled the sidewalks again. The winds will come with the rising of...

    http://apple.news/AgBTnk9nZQxu1JLHFTN6a-Q Jüni said data from the U.K. has shown a third dose of a COVID-19 vaccine can decrease the risk of infection by up to five times, and he called for an acceleration of the campaign to provide them. Despite the clear weakening in protection from...

    Omicron

    Or about another 8.5 million to step up to take the teeth out’a this Covid 19 on a National level anyway depending on how you look at the numbers. While Omicron is leading to many more breakthrough infections in vaccinated people, doctors on the frontlines this weekend reported the same thing...

    Omicron

    Imagine if provinces had offered adults boosters at the 12-week mark back in September. Or even at the five or six-month mark in November or early December. This wouldn’t have been some radical jump ahead of science; the United States, United Kingdom, Israel, Germany, and France were all...

    Good News for the White Right

    It’s a tragedy & potentially a travesty. LAPD (even internationally) doesn’t have a great reputation.

    Omicron

    Yep, & from the Truckers, the stories of their experiences entering the USA vs entering Canada are night and day, just like after 9/11. Canada is now (as it was then) ridiculously more strict. It would be nice if the CBSA from port to port & even shift to shift at the same port where consistent...

Happy New Year. http://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/covid-19-patients-with-no-jab-60-times-likelier-to-need-intensive-care-385778qtl Unvaccinated people with Covid-19 are up to 60 times more likely to need intensive care treatment, figures show.

    Omicron

    Canada marked Boxing Day by crossing another COVID-19 milestone, surpassing two million total cases despite many jurisdictions not reporting numbers over the holiday weekend, and as hospitals brace for the still unknown impact on admissions. While Omicron is leading to many more breakthrough...

    COVID-19 'Pandemic'

    My Girlfriend & I each got our second booster this morning (3 Phizers & a Moderna at this point) and the annual Influenza vaccination. -40°C with the windchill so no line up & little waiting so in & out in under 1/2 hour. Temperature has gone down in the hours since. Luckily it’s a ‘DRY’ cold...

    They had the right address’s but just in the wrong blanks 😉. The drug house (at that time) was 1814, & our address was 1817. They just had the address is in the wrong places on the paperwork. It was caught before it was tragic but it opened my eyes as to how this sort of thing can happen. This...

    COVID-19 'Pandemic'

    Well, luckily it was caught because they didn’t want us neighbours out on the street rubbernecking. I can see where these cases of mistaken identity do happen though because of this. Mix something like that with the Castle law or doctrine and it becomes multiple obituaries.

    Five in custody after U.S. congresswoman carjacked at gunpoint in Philadelphia park

    Those are very good questions. Generally in our experience if you call in a stolen car they ask if you if want a file# for insurance purposes, and if they happen to see it park somewhere or it’s used in a further crime they call a tow truck service to retrieve it. I can only imagine the...

    COVID-19 'Pandemic'

    To boost your own immune system response to fight off a disease. An inert version of a virus as a vaccine allows your own White Blood Cells to recognize a virus (an active virus) when/if it happens and start the fight immediately instead of starting from scratch. That head start for your immune...

    Boycott Colorado

    We’re getting absolutely mauled with service costs the last couple of months also. So many service shops are trying to make up for 20 months of Covid on every customer. It’s brutal!! A breakdown in the US right now with Canadian plates isn’t a guaranteed financial rape, but there is definitely a...

    Ah yes, the Starlight Tours. Sucks in the winter & many have died and their circumstances buried out here on the Prairies.
