Tuesday On Turtle Island

Conman Carney’s Canada:    Muslim values.    Under investigation.    Mamdani’s Toronto.

The Democrat Party’s America:    Still no kings.    Trump’s Iran deal.

Stories You Won’t Find At Carney’s CBC:    The humanist and the general.    What happened to the ayatollah?    Enoch Powell.    A crime against humanity.    Cultural self-disarmament.

Your morning meme.        A cartoon.    Another cartoon.

If It Wasn’t For Fake Victims, There’d Be No Need for Victim Cards

Someone on X pointed out something I didn’t think of with my post this morning:

In a nutshell, this is precisely what is wrong with Canada (and all of “blue” America). When a society reaches a point, where the key to getting ahead changes from meritocracy to permanent victimhood, that society is doomed.

I do take pride in the fact that many years ago, I coined the acronym “PVS”, which stands for Permanent Victim Syndrome. Nowadays, I tend to think that PVS & TDS are both real.

Pardon, Not Sorry

The Board of Directors of Air Canada today announced…

… that Michael Rousseau has informed the Board that he will retire by the end of the third quarter of 2026, after nearly two decades of strong and dedicated leadership that has reinforced Air Canada’s place as a leader in the airline industry domestically and globally. Mr. Rousseau will continue to lead the company and to serve on its Board until that time.

In today’s other “learn who rules over you” news, Ma Wing-tsung all good.

Take That, Conventional Family Structure

On the non-random nature of who you are; on the apparently “problematic” Calvin and Hobbes; and on the family unit as reinvented by Guardian contributors:

“For us,” says Eleanor Margolis, “the ideal parenting setup would consist of three or four of us sharing responsibility for a child (the others involved would also be responsible for providing the sperm).”

Providing the sperm. A joyous and maternal turn of phrase.

Also of note, the idea of wanting a baby, but with only a third or a quarter of the responsibility. A kind of low-commitment parenting.

Bodes well.

All this and more.
