Just insanity

I find it ludicrous that it is the left of the political spectrum who is asking the right for impeccable decorum. It is exclusively the left, which is hurling all the insults and the unsubstantiated disinformation at the right. The right is merely a reaction to these diatribes.

The left does this because they are out of valid counter-arguments. And the only ammunition they have left is hatred and lies.

The unwelcome guest

Back in the late 1970s Saturday Night Live mixed comedy with horror to air a sketch titled ‘The Guest Who Wouldn’t Leave.’ John Belushi plays a most obnoxious guest imposing himself on a couple played by Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtin striving to remain civil as their guest, who they desperately want to see leave, tells them how after he raids the fridge he’ll get down to watching the late show on TV.  In effect, he signals his intent to hang with them till the wee hours. It’s through the lens of this SNL sketch I view Justin Trudeau’s dogged determination to stage a long goodbye before quitting his job as prime minister.

No trust

I do not trust Mark Carney, he’ll mislead and deceive the voters by promising one thing and doing the exact opposite. Mark Carnage, as the British press called him, will finish what Justin Trudeau started nine years ago. More of the globalist and W.E.F.’s agenda to put the people in want and penury.

He will be Canada’s Keir Starmer. The globalist British Prime Minister who’s ruining the United Kingdom and making it a Third World Country. That’s what Carney, BlackRock’s black angel of economic destruction and devastation, will do to Canada. You’ve been warned.

Bring back photo radar

Say what you will about photo radar being a cash cow, all it does is monitor the legal rules of the road. Anyone who drives in Calgary now knows that the roads are the wild wild west with  people speeding excessively, running red lights, not using signal lights, and basically being hazards to anyone else on the road. It’s time to do the opposite of what the stupid provincial government says, put red light and speed cameras on every single road. Time to start enforcing the law.
