Will China inspire Trudeau to expand fossil-fuel resources?

Much of the international news coverage of the Chinese Communist Party’s quinquennial congress, which wrapped up last weekend, focused on the ruling autocrats’ increasingly belligerent foreign policy.

Also, the way President Xi Jinping’s ruthless enforcement of his “zero-COVID” policy still has more than 200 million citizens under complete lockdown (no leaving their apartments, no ordering in meals or groceries), which is affecting international supply chains.

Our government functions beneath high-school level intelligence.

How left-wing activism got taken over by ‘adults’ who act like infants

Dumping milk onto floors. Hurling food onto walls. Refusing to eat. Gluing body parts. Threatening to pee and poop in your pants. Are those the behaviors of a toddler? Yes. But they’re also the dominant tactics of today’s climate activists.

Consider the case of Gianluca Grimalda. On Oct. 19, Grimalda, along with 15 other members of a climate activist group called Scientist Rebellion, glued himself to the floor of the visitors center next to a Volkswagen factory in Germany.

AOC claims America is facing ‘an environment of FASCISM’ due to ‘intimidation at the polls’ – and says soaring inflation is fault of Wall Street not Joe Biden

While discussing issues surrounding the upcoming midterm elections, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she believes the United States is ‘facing an environment of fascism.’

The New York representative was joined by Rep. Jamie Raskin in a discussion with MSNBC political commentator Chris Hayes to talk about the nearing elections, recent economic turmoil and infrastructure.

Ocasio-Cortez likened alleged voter suppression in Arizona, a state in which a federal judge refused to bar an activist group from monitoring outdoor ballot boxes, to historical instances of racism.

Military Officers Decry Base Living Conditions, Say Retention and Mental Health at Risk: Leaked Memo

Military officers in a leaked Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) memo decried poor on-base living conditions for students at the CAF School of Communications and Electronics (CFSCE) in Kingston, Ont., saying it’s threatening student mental health and retention.

“The corner of a four-person room cannot be made your home,” read a briefing note titled “Canadian Forces School of Communications and Electronics Accommodations,” saying that live-in students at the CFSCE are “inadequately housed.”

Time for anti-woke populists to start own U.S. party?

VANCOUVER — One of the most puzzling aspects of American politics to foreigners living in western democracies is the two-party straitjacket that hinders renewal. Appearing on NBC’s Meet the Press, Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., spoke of her interest in preventing former president Donald Trump from ever again running the country and mentioned that Trump being the Republican nominee would “shatter” the party and give rise to a new “conservative” party.

Lunatic environment minister slams oilpatch for making money and not wasting it on green-scams

Environment minister slams oilpatch for raking in cash and sitting idle on climate action

The federal environment minister is calling out Canada’s oil companies for failing to put cash behind their promises to tackle climate change.

Steven Guilbeault says the country’s major oil players have promised to do something about greenhouse gas emissions, but instead have funnelled most of their record-breaking profits to shareholders.   

Our environment policy is made by petulant high school students.

Pope criticised for renewing Xi deal as trial of Cardinal Joseph Zen reopens

The renewal of a controversial secret deal between the Vatican and China on the joint appointment of bishops has come at an embarrassing moment for the Pope, fanning international criticism of what has been characterised as moral appeasement on the part of the Holy See.

The announcement came on the day that President Xi consolidated his dictatorial powers at the climax of the 20th Chinese Communist Party congress and four days before the reopening of the trial of Cardinal Joseph Zen for helping to fund the legal costs of pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong.

Heritage Report: Military in Decline

Biden gets the blame for the military’s woes, and rightly so.

A report released by the Heritage Foundation last week found that the U.S. military is weaker than it has been in recent years. Every year, the Heritage Foundation releases its military strength index based on attributes used to measure military readiness for global conflicts. The 2023 Index of U.S. Military Strength reported that the military is “weak” and “at growing risk of not being able to meet the demands of defending America’s vital national interests.” Never in the nine-year history of the index’s report has our military been ranked so low.

We’re stuck in the Dark Ages over vaccine deaths

THE fourth year of the pandemic has started and we are still left wondering about the whys and hows. We could easily be participating in a medical-psychological drama on Netflix with a very uncertain outcome and lots of anxious episodes.

A few days ago Dr Ayesha Verill, New Zealand Minister for Covid-19 Response, belatedly replied to my letter of August 18 entitled ‘Current pandemic policy and protocols are out of date’ in which I asked the government to consider published research findings from Thailand, Qatar and Iceland. I also requested that vaccination status be included on death certificates to aid research. In her reply, Dr Verill noted that the government has now ended the Covid-19 Protection Framework and added: ‘While New Zealand watches closely how other countries are dealing with the response to Covid-19, it is important that we make our own decision when it comes to how we manage the virus, as many factors determine our response, such as vaccination rates, community transmission, and the pressures on our health system.’

UN claims climate catastrophe now almost unavoidable

Three — count ’em, three — new reports from the United Nations claim that the planet is in dire, imminent danger because the nations of the world are not adequately mobilizing against climate change. According to the reports, countries are neither creating sufficient plans to reduce warming nor acting on them quickly enough, even as global greenhouse gas emissions are on the rise, thus putting the planet on track to experience nearly 3 degrees Celsius of warming within less than 80 years.

The year of the femcel

Why are women struggling to find sex and love?

You may have already forgotten, but 2022 is supposed to be the year of the femcel. In case you have forgotten or never knew, a femcel is the female counterpart to an “incel”, or involuntarily celibate male, a woman who can’t find a partner because she is (again, supposedly) too ugly and/or weird. These women had to form their own team because they weren’t welcome in the largely online gatherings of deeply aggrieved guys who (I suppose) couldn’t accept their shy female counterparts because: 1) they are really pissed at/estranged from women generally, 2) incel sites are places where men can vent about women with mind-crushing hostility, which could be awkward if they were co-ed, and 3) incels mostly don’t believe it’s even possible that a female can’t get sex if she wants it.

Exploding the myth of wartime stiff upper lip

Trauma of fighting in the Second World War remains a peculiar taboo because its heroism is so woven into our identity

… Some of the first SAS soldiers, notably Lieutenant Blair “Paddy” Mayne, were recruited precisely because they were unstable, unruly and prone to extreme violence. Mayne’s behaviour was sometimes close to psychotic. Several of the early SAS recruits exhibited increasing irrationality and symptoms of mental illness, as the strain of a particularly brutal form of warfare took a toll.

What the rise of fascism really looks like

100 years ago, Mussolini‘s violent, youthful movement came to power.

In late October 1922, Benito Mussolini’s National Fascist Party assumed power in Italy. Understanding the rise of fascism 100 years ago, and what it meant, remains more important than ever. Not, as is the fashion today, to highlight the supposed parallels between its rise and that of populism – but to show how very different fascism was to all that is damned and demonised in its name today.
