The reason the @liberal_party keeps pushing for these “ethnic heritage months” is because they are systematically trying to destroy Canadian culture and Canadian identity just like Keir Starmer is doing in the UK.

It is a WEF game plan to institute a New World Order by imposing migrant invasions and trying to say diversity is a strength

They do not want strength from citizens

They want weak obedient peasants

Diversity is NOT strength

Diversity is weakness that leads to a destruction of sovereignty.

Crime Stoppers cyber breach just exposed how even "anonymous" tip systems can fail potentially doxxing tipsters on the dark web and putting lives at risk.
Now imagine that on steroids: Bill C-22 would force telecoms and tech companies to hold all our call, text, and internet metadata for up to a YEAR.

One breach. Millions of Canadians' communication patterns, contacts, locations, and habits exposed. No more expectation of privacy in everyday life.
This isn't about catching criminals; it's turning every citizen into a data point in a giant, hackable database.
Now, we see the RCMP networks and tip platforms hit. Why create even bigger targets while pushing more surveillance and online regulation bills?

Stargate Trivia: The Top 10 Running Gags in Stargate: SG-1
#SaveStargate

10. Blue Jello

The blue jello predates my involvement with the show. By the time Paul and I joined SG-1 in its fourth season, the gelatin was already de rigueur in most every mess scene, eventually, finding its way to Atlantis as well. So what’s the deal? Search me. I seem to remember someone saying it was simply something the prop department whipped up one day that stood out, both for its neon properties and sheer ridiculousness, quickly becoming a comically beloved visual staple.

9. O’Neill’s obsession with The Simpsons

O’Neill was full of Simpsons references and an admitted fan. Why? Well, because most of the show’s writers were fans as well, although nowhere near as huge a fan as Richard Dean Anderson. How big a fan was he? So big that he attended the table reading of a Simpsons episode and was totally blown away by the experience. Occasionally, he would even bring his daughter by my office to check out the various Simpsons-related dioramas and action figures that bedecked my shelf. Eventually, actor Dan Castellanetta guested on the show (Citizen Joe) and he and Rick hit it off. They had a great time working together and, months later, Dan showed his appreciation by writing a Stargate/RDA-themed Simpsons episode to which Rick lent his voice talents.

8. Pineapples

If you’re watching Stargate and ever happen to catch sight of a pineapple, there’s a good chance the episode you’re viewing was directed by long-time Stargate director Will Waring. The pineapples were his signature visual. More often than not, however, the fruit were so carefully camouflaged, most viewers would be hard-pressed to notice them. Still, there’s plenty of fun to be had in trying. I once asked Will “Why pineapples?” and he told me that on one of his first productions, he was camera operator on a scene involving a high speed chase. For some reason, he put a pineapple in the car’s back window as a gag – and then forgot to remove it for the actual shoot. As a result, for the entire high-octane chase sequence, there’s a pineapple clearly rattling around in the back window of our protagonist’s car. Nobody noticed – until the dailies. The director was livid and was prepared to fire Will – but the producer LOVED the pineapple gag. Will got to keep his job – and the signature pineapple was born.

7. The Big Wrench

Where Will Waring had his pineapples, director Martin Wood had his big wrench. You’ll often spot it in the background, in the hands of longtime Stargate SG-1 Fight Coordinator Dan Shea (Sgt. Siler), as he makes adjustments to equipment or simply walks around with this huge, oversized calling card. Every once in a while, Martin would get into the big wrench background action as well, donning the persona of his onscreen alter-ego, Major Wood.

6. Peter DeLuise’s Hitchcockian touch

Whereas Will had the pineapples and Martin had the big wrench, director Peter DeLuise had…Peter DeLuise. Before he was a director, Peter was an actor, and so it was only natural that he’d take a page out of Hitchcock’s book and make himself his own visual signature. He appeared as a host of background characters and played the part of the young Urgo opposite his father Dom. Even in the most challenging of episodes, Peter found a way to make his trademark appearance. Once, we thought he’d missed his cameo – only to discover he’d found an ingenious way to make a subtle appearance. In one scene, as Teal’c sits in his darkened room, deep in meditation, we pull back to reveal he is surrounded by candles – several of which are assembled to spell out the initial “PD”.

5. Jonas Quinn’s voracious appetite

Actors have their trademark “bits” as well and, for Jonas, it was food. Whether it was buttered toast in Night Walkers or the infamous banana scene in Descent (which, incidentally, ran about three minutes long in the director’s cut), he was always snacking. But he crossed the line in one episode where he showed up in the gate room sipping tea from a mug and had to be reminded – the tea mug was another actor’s trademark “bit” (see below).

4. Magnets

Every once in a while, whenever Carter tried to explain some scientific or technological wonder, Jack would try to tie it back to magnets. What was the deal with O’Neill and magnets? Well, this one was compliments of Creator/Executive Producer Brad Wright who once had someone pitch him some ridiculous scientific theory. When a dubious Brad asked him to clarify the faulty science, the other individual shrugged and offered: “Magnets?”. It eventually became the stock response to every befuddling question of logic.

3. The Wizard of Oz

This was another running joke that predated my involvement in the production but SG-1 was peppered with references throughout its ten-year run, culminating in the Wizard of Oz sight gag in the show’s 200th episode (200). Of course, by that point in the series run, the line-up had changed, offering a slightly altered version of the originals: Carter as Dorothy, Daniel as the cowardly lion, Teal’c as the tin man, and, of course, Jack as the scarecrow.

2. Indeed

If there is one word that perhaps appears in more episodes of Stargate than any other (beside, maybe, “stargate”), it’s “Indeed”, Teal’c’s short and sweet one-word response to most anything he is asked – and sometimes not. Actor Chris Judge even took to inserting the odd “Indeed” on occasions where it hadn’t even been scripted. I knew we’d reached the point of no return when, while watching dailies one day, we watched as someone asked Teal’c: “Have you seen him?” to which Teal’c replied: “Indeed – I have not.”

1. What the hell is in O’Neill’s cup?

Seriously. This one is fairly subtle but after noticing it for the first time, you'll always see it. Whenever Jack has a cup or mug in his hand there will come a point in the scene where he’ll glance down, frown, and then attempt to pluck some mysterious foreign object out of his drink.

Basically every consultation the City of Calgary did between 2017 and 2025 is worthless and should be ignored, because about 70% of Calgarians learnt that the City (and Council) didn’t care what they said and wouldn’t listen to them, so they stopped bothering to participate.

🚨 TURNED ON CARNEY 🚨

If Mark Carney thought his hand picked Budget Officer would protect him, he picked the wrong person.

Annette Ryan told committee that Carney's fiscal plan has only a 1% chance of actually happening...

Looks like he accidently picked someone honest.

As a Canadian- I am afraid to post my thoughts on social media now. I am 55 & I FEAR whatever I say can be held as hate speech by @liberal_party - even though it isn’t - it is philosophy and truth & observation. NEVER in my life have I deleted so many posts after writing

[Yukon Strong 🫎 @YukonStrong]

The liberals are trying to take credit for "fixing" wrist slap laws they created that excused violent migrants for votes

C-75 literally got 100's of people killed

Now they want a gold star for "fixing" the problem they created, you can't hate them enough

The thing is people have no idea what 25 units per hectare looks like. I didn’t. For context: Tuscany was built at 12-15 units per hectare. Varsity is 8-9. Lake bonavista is around 8. Dalhousie is around 10. Marda loop 20-25. Let’s start talking about values people understand.

[Wiretap Media @WiretapMediaCa]

The Canadian government doesn’t track crime stats based on immigration status so they convinced the public that immigration reduces crime based on a fraudulent study conducted by McGill University that used foreign data to justify the invasion—now data shows a direct correlation between immigration, and the sharp rise in the types of systemic crimes from the same third world shitholes plaguing our country.

Canadians better wake the fuck up.

The federal govt is finally saying out loud what many of us have been warning of — that the violence taking place in 🇨🇦 was not organic but foreign, designed to sow division and hate.

Will the Minister identify which “foreign entity” hired the shooters? https://t.co/FNlwaL5x69

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

Britain is not the same.
The lockdowns in 2020-2021 did not merely pause life; they rewrote its rules. What began as a 3 week ‘flatten the curve’ shield against a virus became a slow, grinding experiment in how much freedom, community and common sense a nation could surrender before something essential broke. And something broke.

Children spent the Covid era incarcerated away from education and friends, robbing them of early learning and social skills.

The elderly were often isolated alone behind closed doors.

The economy did not bounce back; it collapsed. Small shops and pubs that defined high streets vanished, replaced by the cold efficiency of multinational corporation platforms that never close and never employ or circulate money locally.

Debt piled upon debt while the government discovered new appetites for control and new excuses for spending.

The cost of living has continued since the Covid era. This is restricting the ability of millions people live their lives with fulfilment and prosperity.

Young people who should have been building their lives instead watched house prices and rents climb beyond reach, their wages eaten by inflation that the same institutions that locked them down now lecture them to accept as normal.

Most quietly devastating was the loss of something harder to measure: the unthinking assumption that Britain was still a free country in the old, stubborn sense. That an individual could decide for themselves whether to open their business, hug their loved ones, or send their child to school. That the state existed to serve the people, not to rule them or decide freedoms.

The habit of deference to authority, once a quiet British strength, became a dangerous reflex. Dissent was reframed as danger. Questions were treated as something to be cancelled or punished. And when the restrictions finally lifted, the psychological damage remained, like scaffolding left standing long after the building had collapsed because of unnecessary repairs.

Britain survived the Blitz. It endured rationing, deindustrialisation, recessions, and every political crisis of the modern era. But the lockdowns were different. They did not ask for national pride, courage or endurance. They asked for obedience and isolation, and they received both in abundance. The Britain that emerged since the Covid era is more anxious, more divided, more dependent, and less certain of what it still believes.

The question is not whether we can go back. We cannot. The question is whether we will remember what was taken and refuse to let it happen again, or whether we will grow tragically conditioned to a less confident, subdued, more frightened version of ourselves that the lockdowns left behind.

Britain is not the same.
The only choice left is what we decide to become instead - and ideally, reboot our national confidence. But I’m not hopeful of this. The Covid era broke something in Britain. You can feel it still lingering. And ultimately, only we can try and resolve this. We need to rebuild our national confidence and stand up to the governments who continue to try and keep us in forms of restrictive confinement under their control. No one voted for this. And it’s time to do something about it before it’s too late.

🚨 REMEMBER THIS SCANDAL THAT JUST DISAPPEARED??

In 2019, Globe reporter Robert Fife broke the SNC-Lavalin scandal.

Trudeau’s PMO pressured then-Attorney General Jody Wilson-Raybould to step in and kill the criminal prosecution of a corrupt Quebec construction giant that had bribed officials in Libya.

She refused.

She got shuffled out of Justice. Then kicked out of caucus.

In this clip, Fife explains how he approached her, the sleepless nights, and the very real fear that if she came out and denied the story, he and his editor would’ve been fired.

Meanwhile, Justin Trudeau stood at a podium and called the allegations “false.”

Wilson-Raybould had integrity.
Fife had courage.
The Liberals had something to hide.

This wasn’t a misunderstanding.
This was a Prime Minister’s Office trying to strong-arm the top law officer of the Crown to protect a politically connected company.

And the same Liberal Party — now led by Mark Carney — still acts like the rules don’t apply to them.

Different leader.
Same entitled culture.

The Rape Gang Inquiry - what happens next.

I intend to use my parliamentary privilege to name perpetrators and their enablers in the chamber.

This will be done incredibly carefully with our legal team involved every step of the way to ensure that no future prosecutions are jeopardised.

We are cooperating with the authorities in order to help cases be opened and reopened, but my faith in the system to independently deliver justice is not high...

That is why we are pursuing private prosecutions and civil litigation.

A target list has been identified, and it continues to grow.

This all has to be handled very carefully, for obvious reasons, but I am determined to act. We have had enough talk, now we need to act.

Our aim is straightforward.

Put people in prison. Deliver justice. Finally.

We will act. Not talk.

[Liz Wheeler @Liz_Wheeler]

It’s astonishing & sickening that the British Royal family— King Charles, Prince William, Princess Kate, even Harry & Meghan— haven’t said a WORD about the systemic rape and sexual torture of 250,000 British white girls in their country.

This isn’t “political.” It’s humanity.

Christ have mercy.
