Mischief is important: Data Poisoning
What’s In A Name?
Changing place names isn’t cheap, and it’s not made any better when the new names are often jibberish. But all levels of government in Canada seem to be happy to accept this new millstone around their necks.
The replacement of Powell River is already occurring, piece by piece and without public consultation. Powell River General Hospital was renamed in 2022, followed by the school board, both replacing “Powell River” with the name “qathet,” which means “working together.” Furthermore, the regional Vancouver Island University satellite campus was renamed to “tiwšɛmawtxʷ,” meaning “house of learning,” to eliminate references to Israel Powell, a controversial colonial official.

Boutique Suffering
Because, hey, cooking is hard:
An exchange of views ensues. In which, Ms Taylor Lorenz, an “online culture journalist,” struggles with causality. Including the seemingly difficult concept that a heavy reliance on delivered takeaway, and the mindset that implies, may have some bearing on how little cash one has left at the end of the month.
You see, preparing a simple meal, even a packed lunch, is a physical impossibility for those deemed downtrodden.

Is Mark Carney Nothing More than a Deep State Apparatchik?
I’ve repeatedly stated that the Elbows Up Crowd unequivocally hate Donald Trump specifically and Americans generally much more than they’ve ever loved Canada. So this post is clearly incomprehensible by them. For the rest of you, I have a simple question: Was Mark Carney implanted into the Canadian political system by the global elites?
Don’t Let The Door Hit You…
As someone who could never stand Stephen Colbert’s overtly partisan, sanctimonious political cheerleading for more than a couple of seconds, I don’t think that any new void is being created by his departure; there was nothing but a void to begin with.
Among those sorry to see Colbert go is astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, a frequent guest. Johnny Carson used to book scientists, but Tyson notes wryly that not many TV hosts do these days.
Brehm saw Colbert make himself into a sort of moral authority and lean into the social justice camp of progressive Catholics: “He is playing up that moral quality by standing up for American moral values like freedom of speech, freedom of expression, and he’s doing it with a Catholic jargon, with Catholic language.”

Things You’ll Never See On The CBC
Worried about the impact on the news brand, CBC is pausing production of a “satirical” show that appears to have been attacking conservatives and Canadian institutions. Called Northland Tales, the show is being co-produced by CBC and APTN, though a statement from CBC went to great lengths to stress that it was CBC Entertainment and not CBC News behind the production.
After controversy erupted online about the production using fake names and false pretenses to get people, including retired Mounties, to agree to interviews, CBC has confirmed it is hitting pause while also defending this style of production.

Flappy Flap Those Elbows!
Because that’s the only lift the Liberals have left.
McGuinty announced the Snowbirds’ Tutor jets will be replaced by CT-157 Siskin II turboprops but gave no completion date, other than they’re “expected to be operational in the early 2030s.”
Given Canada’s history of military procurement fiascoes, we’ll believe it when we see it.
They have no intention of replacing them.
1⃣ Bucky Belanger introduces David McGuinty. Belanger is the MP who thought the Iran war was in Libya. He describes the Snowbirds being grounded as “very joyous & happy event.”
2⃣ McGuinty asked how long Snowbirds will be grounded. Twice. Reporter mentions 2030’s was in the press release. McGuinty provides no specifics. “Moving as quickly as we can.”
3⃣ How many Siskins (the replacement aircraft, a prop plane, not a jet) to be procured? “That remains to be determined.”
4⃣ Snowbirds will stay in Moose Jaw. Personnel re-assignment? Lt Gen Speiser-Blanchet – “We don’t have a list of specific activities at this time.”
5⃣ Final show is scheduled in the US. Will this change? “We are looking at that now.”
