You know, it’s bad enough that in their desperation to get the Republicans out of the White House, the American media is trumpeting the worst economic meltdown since the Great Depression… while the actual numbers indicate higher employment than the Clinton Years and a surprisingly robust economy considering that is happening in the real estate […]

I thought this was clearly decided a few years ago.
Someone should tell those Asian bankers.
Nobody cares if people are starving as long as we can stave off ferns growing in the Arctic.
Because if the earth were to get warmer, dinosaurs might re-emerge to terrorize the planet, and then we all know what happens then: (besides […]

Ezra Levant makes some great points about the silliness surrounding the already apologized for duck incident in Fort McMurray.
Every barrel of oil steamed out of the sand in Ft. McMurray is one more barrel that doesn’t come from a misogynist, human rights-violating environmental basket case, usually a dictatorship, and often a sponsor of terrorism. The […]

See, this is the problem with same-sex rights, and marriage and all that. You have physical, governmental, and tax benefits being passed to people on the basis of who touches who with what body parts. It just doesn’t make any sense.
When this debate first started, I pointed this out to people. Now, we have the […]

Lorrie Goldstein has some suggestions for the Globe and the Star:
(5) “Good news” stories about the bright side of runaway fuel, food and energy prices. For example, when they get high enough that people stop their discretionary spending, thus leading to a recession, thus dramatically lowering greenhouse gas emissions the way that great environmental leader, […]

Definition: when the oppressors no longer tell the oppressed that they are too stupid for normal education - it just lets the oppressed say it, then agrees with them.
Just another symptom of a nation that has copped out of caring for its fellow citizens by simply making mental, emotional and psychological problems, a “culture” or […]

When I was in high school, my social studies class taught us about the basic economic principles behind industry. We were taught about primary industry, secondary industry, and tertiary industry. It was explained that primary industry involves the harvesting of natural resources. Examples of this are logging, mining, and oil drilling. Canada is famous for […]

Small Dead Animals has a post up about how people are starting to grasp how the internet is changing how media is both created and consumed - specifically newsmedia.
While it is true that blogging and other types of electronic dissemination are changing how people get informed, turning the news into something interactive and globalized, but […]

How insane is Canada?
Or is it just Canada’s media?
We are already intimately familiar with the media elites, uniting in solidarity to cut off Canadians from viewing the “offensive content” produced by the Danish cartoonists a few years ago. In their own eyes, they were righteous in their roles as gatekeepers of knowledge, to keep us […]

For me, gas prices have finally reached the tipping point.
It is no longer even marginally cost-effective to own my truck.
I love my truck, don’t get me wrong. It has been my goal to own a truck since I got my first car.
My Dad always had a truck. I grew up with a truck in my […]
