I loved Archie! While he was a bigot & racist, he was funny as hell & didn't give a crap about voicing his opinions, right or wrong! You knew who he was from the get go!! I admire people who don't give a damn what others think about them, even if they're wrong. At least you know what they think. Now-a-days, people keep thoughts to themselves because of the ridicule & (sometimes) hated that exists. So you never really get to know the person at all. It's very troubling because then no one knows who to trust which is exactly what the "leftists/regressives/socialists" et al want. They want to dominate & they're succeeding by silencing the vast majority of people.

Probably helped that he was a fictional character, and therefore didn't have much to fear.

I'm sure that's relevant.

To something.

In your head.
Relevant to reality, to my statement of fact in a plethora of heads.

There have been documented ties between the Hells Angels and longshoreman unions, particularly in the port of Montreal. Some Hells Angels members have reportedly held positions within longshoreman unions, including roles like senior trainers. This association has raised concerns about organized crime's potential influence in the port's operations.

Specifically, some Hells Angels members in Montreal have been members of both the checkers' union and the longshoremen's union, according to Canadian parliamentary evidence on OurCommons.ca. One individual, Bertrand, who was identified as having connections to the Hells Angels Nomad chapter, was also a senior trainer for longshoremen. These connections have been a subject of investigation due to concerns about the potential for criminal infiltration into legitimate industries.

My experience is west coast longshore and rail teamsters.

Support your local Red Machine.

The federal budget announced Tuesday proposed a plan that would boost funding for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and its French-language counterpart, Radio-Canada — and included in that plan was the possibility that Canada could participate in Eurovision?
According to the budget, $150 million would go toward the broadcaster “to strengthen its mandate to serve the public and to better reflect the needs of Canadians” in 2025-26. The government was also working with CBC to “explore participation in Eurovision,” the televised songwriting competition.

You'd be surprised how popular Eurovision is in Canada. Good ad revenue draw.
