Unapologetic,anti woke, don't trust government, there are only TWO genders, conservative leaning, common sense, never believe anything is ever 'free'...

[Concerned Canadian @Concern70732755]

Clearly Carney who attempts to be anti-USA with his demeaning rhetoric which is all theatre and a defection!
He invests in the USA -his wife works for a USA company he has a home in the USA & his children attend USA schools !
So much for Elbows Up !

🚨NEWS: Authorities fear others will copy a group in Seville, Spain who spread pig bones on the construction site a Mosque was set to be built on, making the land impure and stopping the work.

The group received widespread praise on social media for their efforts.

There was a demographic problem 2,200 years ago, and Polybius wrote exactly what caused it. Read carefully:

"In our times, Greece as a whole is experiencing a lack of children and, more generally, a decrease in population. Because of this, cities have become deserted and there is a lack of productivity, even though we do not suffer from constant wars or epidemics. So if someone advised that we send priests to the gods to ask them what we should say or do to become more numerous and better inhabit our cities, he would not seem foolish, since the cause is obvious and the solution lies in our own hands.

People have turned to arrogance, greed, and laziness, and they neither want to marry, nor, if they do marry, to raise their children. Instead, they have only one or two children with difficulty, just to leave them wealth and raise them in luxury.

This evil grew rapidly, and we did not notice. For when there are only one or two children, and one is lost to war and the other to illness, it is obvious that the cities will inevitably become deserted, just as a beehive weakens little by little, so too do cities that lack population become unable to survive."

The similarities after 2,200 years.

The demographic issue has been a problem several times throughout history, and none of those times was it due to the economy, but rather a result of prosperity, comfortable living, and laziness. My Greek grandparents had children even when they had nothing to eat, and the kids grew up barefoot, eating bread with olives and feta cheese. Money was never an obstacle.

Nowadays, people prefer partying, doing drugs, and living for today rather than having a purpose, building a family, and leaving a positive footprint in this world. They choose the easy life. It’s sad watching people who passionately want to have kids but can’t, compared to people who don’t want kids because it would take them out of their comfort zone, because a child would stop them from going to clubs, drinking, and partying like a meaningless person.

I also notice a pattern among people on the Left who admire Marx. Marx wanted to destroy the nuclear family. He thought marriage was a system of oppression not based on love, but on property ownership, treating women as "instruments of production." Most of the youth who admire Marx are against having a family.

At this point, it’s a form of natural selection between those who are worthy and those who are not to continue.

“Last year alone, Muslims kiIIled 500,000 Christians in only Nigeria. Why are they only talking about Palestine?"

He is 100% correct.

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: Woman recognizes the building from Carney’s new rental housing announcement.

She lives there.

She exposes that her CURRENT rent control apartment, will be TORN DOWN!

And the new building Carney announced with 184 units, 121 of those units will be REPLACEMENT units from the building she lives in!

Our taxes are paying to demo an old building and move people into a new building, under the guise that we are getting more affordable rental housing.

Taxpayers are funding this!

Two-thirds of the new multi-million dollar project, will NOT be net-new capacity.

Remember the dairy farmer in Ontario who was forced to dump 30,000 litres of milk in February 2023?

No one has heard from him since. Dairy Farmers of Canada claimed it was an isolated incident, but that's not quite the case.

Our lab launched a study on farm milk waste and milk dumping in Canada, in collaboration with McGill, the University of Michigan, and Aalborg University in Denmark. I'm happy to report that our study has been accepted for publication in a prestigious academic journal by @sciencedirect and will be released in a few weeks. The amount of unreported wasted farm milk in Canada is astonishing.

Stay tuned.

[Joe Hokanson @YukonEventually]

@toronto_morning Ok, so how many of these are Private Sector jobs? Government paid positions should not count as those positions are a drain on our taxes, not a contribution.

[Rise Of Alberta @RiseOfAlberta]

Rosemary Barton argues that Ottawa is finally making progress for Alberta.

Keith Wilson sets the record straight: the bad anti-development laws remain, the tanker ban remains and Bill C-69 remains.

Ottawa could repeal these laws. It refuses. Alberta independence is the answer.

[Sassygal @Sassygal1971]

This one never gets old

[Rise Of Alberta @RiseOfAlberta]

Keith Wilson destroys the investment uncertainty argument against Alberta independence.

An independent Alberta would have:

No Bill C-69.
No carbon taxes.
No failed net-zero policies.

That is not uncertainty. That is the certainty investors have been waiting for.

[Alberta Secession - Why? @cnm5000]

"The primary focus of the paper is to detail what the transitional steps will look like for Alberta, if Alberta votes to become independent and moves from being a province to a country, to maintain continuity of service and normalcy of life for people and businesses,”

@LivinTheFringe A vote for separation is to preserve what is left of what they fought for. The majority of the Canada they fought for is gone. Lets break free of the fall of Canada and keep the values and way of life they fought so hard to preserve.

Billions of dollars leave Alberta every year through equalization, yet our governments throw those numbers around as if they’re just another line in a budget.

But do we actually stop and think about what a billion dollars really means?

Just published study just dropped some bombshells on what we know about cancer.

Researchers found cancer cells that survived chemotherapy may release fructose (the sugar found in fruit and fruit sweeteners) to help communicate with other cancer cells and tell them to metastasize (spread.)

Cancer cells are using fructose to communicate!

But wait there's more.

"Cholesterol helps cells remain attached to one another, functioning like a form of biological glue. When cholesterol levels fall, those cellular bonds weaken, allowing cancer cells to separate more easily and move into other areas."

That's right. Lower cholesterol levels makes it easier for cancer cells to spread.

So what about statins?

Researchers are investigating the clinical significance between statin therapy and chemotherapy but are quick to point out that these findings are not a reason to stop taking statins (lol).

Talk about mixed messages!

Important caveats:

This study is based on cell and animal models, plus some correlative human data.

This study focuses on ovarian cancer and not all cancers behave the same.

Fructose from whole fruit is not as insidious as something like HFCS found in sodas.

[Mosab Hassan Yousef @MosabHasanYOSEF]

Muslims love to brag about the golden age of science,

Al-Khwarizmi invented algebra, Ibn Sina medicine, Al-Razi chemistry.

None of them were Arab. All three were Persians from lands conquered by the sword.

The Arabs enslaved their women, stole their gold, looted their cities, then put their own name on the achievements of the conquered and called it “Islamic.”

It was never theirs.

This segment by @BenMulroney perfectly captures the absurdity of this job posting.
