Seeing Canadian issues through a multi-cultural lens. Writing on some of these issues, too. Often mistaken as a 'c/Conservative' or 'right-winger'.

    Trump: If Canada doesn’t stop the illegal migrants and fentanyl coming from there into the US, I will impose tariffs on Canadian goods. Canadian politicians: We will retaliate by imposing tariffs on American goods. Why aren’t they vowing to stop illegal migrants & fentanyl?

    I don’t know which of the following is worse than the others: 1. Carney acting like he is already PM 2. CBC acting like Carney is already PM 3.Carney getting exclusive access to LPC membership database or 4. Other leadership candidates not speaking up against # 3 above.

    Canada is in this alarming state now where a Christian church needs a permit to hold a religious singing event, but Muslims can block major streets to pray for months on end - even block the path of an ambulance - while the police look on as mute spectators. This won’t end well.

    I like how the Appalachians are under water but Florida isn’t.

    The right thing to do with the rioters in Montreal last night would have been to round them up and * deport all non citizens & * jail all Canadian citizens for the maximum duration provided by law. THAT would make Canada a country operating on the rule of the law.

    So far this year, police in Canada have told us that: * CCTV footage ON YOUR PROPERTY violates the privacy rights of home invaders & * we should leave our car keys outside our doors so thieves don’t have to go to the trouble of breaking down your door. And we’re just in March.

    The Sean Feucht controversy has brought to the fore, once again, the fact that a large percentage of Canadians view other people’s rights as being subject to their approval. At the slightest hint of a difference of opinion, they consider other people’s rights to be forfeited.

    Canada ships coal to China. China burns coal to generate power, uses that power to manufacture solar panels, sends the solar panels to Canada on ships burning oil. In Canada we install those solar panels & call it ‘emissions free’ electricity. Creative accounting at its best.

    No self-respecting country allows its flag to be burned or otherwise desecrated, on its own territory, without severe punishment for those who did it. Our gutless politicians have made Canada into a country that lacks self-respect.

    The situation with the ostriches has turned into a national shame. I understand that one ostrich has died. CFIA is out of control. RCMP is ‘just following orders’. The concerned minister is AWOL. The PM is gallivanting around the world. The opposition is silent. SHAMEFUL

    People who kept insisting that Canada is ‘stolen land’ are now saying that Canada is not for sale. They were denouncing others as ‘settlers’ & ‘colonizers’ but now expect them to be ‘Team Canada’. Where did their ‘privilege’ and ‘whiteness’ go? These are interesting times 😀

    Me: “Fully vaxed can get Covid too.” Them: “But it’s much milder, no big deal.” Me: “Then why are you scared that unvaxed will infect the vaxed with Covid?” Them:

    The man gets - - arrested on April 13 for assaulting a police officer in Surrey, - released on bail, - arrested on April 15 for assaulting a woman in Vancouver, - released on condition of house arrest. This is a cruel joke, not a justice system.
