Where the foxes caper unmolested, the government packs your school lunch and a man who said he wants to cut the throats of right wingers has been exposed as Labour Party politician Ricky Jones.
Your Land Is My Land Now!
In this ten minute Frontier Centre interview, retired judge Brian Giesbrecht discusses the increasingly popular “land back” movement and what it might mean for Canadian property owners. In a nutshell, the news isn’t good, particularly since Canadian courts are openly siding with the collectivists.

They Took All The Rights, Put ‘Em In A Rights Museum
Trudeau’s rapey-beheader wing will not be pleased.
Justice Minister Arif Virani says he has received the review of online comments made by incoming human rights commissioner Birju Dattani, and that Dattani has “agreed to take a leave” just one day before he was set to begin serving in his new role.
“While I carefully consider this matter, Mr. Dattani has agreed to take leave,” Virani said in a statement Wednesday night.
“I will have more to say in the coming days.” […]
Dattani’s appointment was announced in June, after which a Canadian Jewish advocacy group called attention to some of his past social media posts, saying they were antisemitic.
“The appointment of someone with such a deeply flawed background only exacerbates the skeptical public perceptions of the CHRC and undermines our confidence in the commission’s ability to adjudicate issues of hate and discrimination,” the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs said at the time.
I’ve written the CBC writer to inquire if Dattani will be receiving pay.

Are the Elites of the UK deliberately trying to start a Civil War?
UK PM Keir Starmer and his Cabinet are playing a very dangerous game:
What’s going on has familiar similarities with what Trudeau did to stomp down on the truckers. But what’s going on in the UK is much, much worse.

Our Chinese-Installed Government In Ottawa
Beijing is targeting Canada’s First Nations leaders with intelligence operations based on tourism that are aimed at securing Aboriginal-controlled natural resources, a Top Secret report from Ottawa’s intelligence-review watchdog NSICOP says.
Additionally, Beijing funded a British Columbia provincial candidate and its Consul General in Vancouver took actions to cover up the candidate’s “possible Chinese Communist Party membership,” NSICOP’s June 2019 draft report alleges.
The Bureau exclusively obtained NSICOP’s unredacted, 2019 report on foreign interference, which details China’s pervasive operations to bribe, coerce and co-opt Canadian leaders at all levels of government.[…]
“Many of the same tactics used to target elected officials at the federal level are replicated with provincial, municipal, and indigenous officials,” the June 2019 NSICOP report obtained by The Bureau says.
Canada’s Aboriginal leaders — and the tension between federal and First Nations jurisdictions over natural resources in northern Canada — are an unexplored aspect of the Chinese interference story.
But the 2019 NSICOP report demonstrates crucial national security issues at stake.
It suggests Beijing is seeking clandestine relationships with First Nations leaders under false pretences in order to control Canada’s strategic resources in areas of increasing geopolitical importance.
“In late 2011, China invited a national-level group of Aboriginal leaders to travel to China. A CSIS assessment noted that the invitation was advertised as an opportunity to develop tourism for First Nations,” NSICOP’s report says.
“According to a Minister Counsellor at the PRC Embassy, the tourism opportunity was merely “beipian” (Mandarin for ‘to be fooled’) and that the true intention of the invitation was to pursue Aboriginal-controlled natural resources.”
“…people shouldn’t be shocked at this point.”

UnHerd- Covid-style controls against disorder are not the answer
John Woodcock, ex-Labour MP and Government advisor on political violence, argued this weekend that reinstating Covid-like restrictions would be the right response to the violent disorder taking place around the country following the dreadful events in Southport last week. At the same time, Keir Starmer has signalled moves that include more Government control of online information and the expansion of state surveillance through facial recognition.
Blog Notes
We woke up to this today. Those are the internet and landline cables, and while still live there’s plenty of zapping up at the main line.
So… my blogging activities may be interrupted somewhat by both the mess there is to clean up and the likelihood that I lose connection.
It’s always something.
A Sober, Balanced Look at Immigration in Canada
A young Canadian journalist examines what has been happening in Toronto. One thing is for sure: Justin Trudeau and his ilk are solely responsible for this unplanned mess, be it for native born Canadians or new immigrants. No planning, no preparation, no strategy. Let’s hope there’s a special place in hell for these scoundrels.

Alberta government addresses its electrical grid close calls: Digging deep into the report
As Pipeline Online has extensively reported, each time Alberta goes into a grid alert, wind generation has flatlined, and the sun is on the wrong side of the planet. And that over-reliance on wind, especially to perform, when it does not, seems to be at the crux of the reforms announced.
But that’s not exactly how the report saw it. While it recognized low wind power generation was a factor, it largely places the blame on outages in natural gas-fired thermal generation, even though in one of these events wind generation was close to nil, and the second one saw minimal wind.
