I stumbled across a similar local event at a hotel I was staying at in Dearborn Michigan of all places years ago. It was odd but harmless fun.
WTF?

Limited vaccine supply could thwart Canada’s efforts to contain monkeypox
As an unprecedented global monkeypox outbreak keeps growing, Canada remains opaque about its vaccine stockpile — even as advocates and medical experts warn the country may lack enough supply to meet current demand, with many Canadians being offered just one round of what’s typically a two-dose shot in order to stretch supplies.
Countries are also hastily procuring more vaccine shipments while a key manufacturer is striving to keep up with global orders, all to stop the spread of a virus that has struck more than 14,000 people globally so far this year.
Oh great… Monkeypox virus could become entrenched as new STD in the US
WTF?

Civil suit accuses Edmonton Oilers owner of paying teenage ballerina for sex
A newly-filed U.S. civil suit claims Daryl Katz, the billionaire owner of the Edmonton Oilers, paid a teenage ballet dancer $75,000 in exchange for “her sexual favours.”
The unproven allegations come in response to a sexual abuse lawsuit launched by seven aspiring ballerinas in 2021 against Mitchell Taylor Button, a dance teacher, and his wife Dusty Button, once a principal member of The Boston Ballet.
Mid morning sleaze.
John Ivison: Report of a drone sent to Russia points to holes in Ottawa’s export ban
The Canadian government may have dropped the ball when it comes to its export ban on military equipment to Russia.
Italian newspaper la Repubblica reported last week that Italian authorities had seized a U.S.-made, Russia-bound drone shipment. Containers with drones, or drone components, were intercepted at the southern port of Gioia Tauro. They were officially bound for Qatar but investigators suspect their final destination would have been Russia, which is desperate to get its hands on superior American drone guidance and control systems for its war in Ukraine.
Yet Another Leftist Is Caught Preying on Children
You know, you think after a certain amount of time, the Left would have the wherewithal to look closely at its ranks and purge them of the human sewage that swims through their population like the proverbial corn-eyed sewer trout (stercore pisces). But as has been proven time and again, the Left will overlook quite a bit as long as someone is mouthing the right slogans. The sheriff’s deputies in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan? Well, not so much.

The country where having a pet could soon land you in jail
“He looks at me with his innocent and beautiful eyes. He is asking me to take him out for a walk, but I don’t dare. We will get arrested.”
Mahsa, who has a dog, is referring to a new wave of arrests of pet owners and seizures of their animals in the Iranian capital, Tehran.
Police there recently announced that walking dogs in parks was a crime. The ban was justified as a measure to “protect the safety of the public”.

‘It’s a mess and I’ve never seen anything like it’: global lost luggage crisis mounts
When Jenn Choi packed her and her family’s bags she feared for the worst. After hearing horror stories of checked airline luggage going permanently missing, she purchased tracking devices for her suitcases to ensure she would not have to rely on a critically understaffed aviation industry facing what could be its worst meltdown in history.
Lo and behold, all three of the bags containing the possessions of the self-help coach, her husband and their one-year-old child remained almost 10,000km (6,200 miles) away in Germany when they arrived in Cancun, Mexico, last week.
CONCERNS as CONVOY-CONNECTED group establishes in Ottawa neighbourhood
The stark red banners hanging from St. Brigid’s church on Saint Patrick Street are nearly impossible to miss; the white insignia of a tree adorned with maple leaves offering neighbours little indication as to who is behind the new developments at the deconsecrated church.
The group is known as The United People of Canada, a self-described federally incorporated “not-for-profit social enterprise organization.”
Corporate documents show three members on the group’s board of directors: Kimberley Ward, William Komer, and Diane Nolan.
I like how they canvas a guy named Mohamed for his degree of “concern.”
With monkeypox spreading globally, many experts believe it can’t be contained
It has been a mere nine weeks since the United Kingdom announced it had detected four cases of monkeypox, a virus endemic only in West and Central Africa. In that time, the number of cases has mushroomed to nearly 13,000 in over 60 countries throughout Europe, North and South America, the Middle East, new parts of Africa, South Asia, and Australia.
The growth in cases and the geographic spread has been rapid and relentless.

Vatican tells its money men: you’re banned from investing in guns and porn
The Vatican will not invest in pornography or weapons under a new ethical investment policy that is part of Pope Francis’ efforts to clean up the Catholic Church following a series of scandals.
While there is no suggestion the Vatican currently has money in porn or other unholy industries, the new rules are an attempt to establish tougher principles and oversight in Vatican finances, where management has been chaotic and amateurish.
