. What’d he do? Extort money from her for emitting CO2? Confiscated her bank account? Coerce her into taking an injection she didn’t want? Prevent her through threats of physical force from flying?
Sad day for Jasper. Unfortunately this was inevitable. Fuel loads had been allowed to grow to ungodly levels in the Park.
I talked to a park officer about this 15 years ago. He pointed out that aggressive firefighting is partially to blame. Every naturally occurring fire is
I have Covid. I’m a danger to anyone in close proximity. I’m also fully vaccinated so I’m not losing my job.
My regularly tested unjabbed colleagues are no danger to anybody yet they’re losing their jobs.
LOAs while Omicron sidelines large #’s of HCWs is immoral and insane.
Either my

is going to work in which case your choice to vaccinate doesn’t affect me one bit, or it’s not going to work in which case I’m as much a danger to you as you are to me and I have no basis to complain about your vaccination status.
If
@realDonaldTrump
was smart he’d pardon a bunch of non-violent offenders that
@KamalaHarris
locked up and stick them in the front row of the debates.
As PM I’d implement a Great Reset:
1) end income tax
2) end Bank of Canada
3) new constitution to include property rights, gun rights and speech
4) separate government and nearly everything
5) sell off Crown Corps and govt assets and pay debt.

Announcement: I’ve added the Federal Government to my terrorist watch list.
They are known to use violence, extortion, kidnapping and forcible confinement, and uttering threats to achieve political ends.
Progressives have been pushing for higher “carbon pricing” for years to save our planet.
Now that it’s here they’re giving all the credit to their super-villains; Putin, oil companies etc.
Guys take some credit. You did it!!
The govt doesn’t need a “plan to reopen”.
You don’t need a plan to stop forcibly confining, armed extortion, uttering threats, assaulting, counterfeiting money, stealing and bossing people around.
You just STOP.

All these church fires started after Varg Vikernes moves to France. Are we are expected to believe this has nothing to do with Norwegian Death Metal?
They’re arresting pastor Pawlowski for holding a church service. This is infuriating.

cannot be trusted with government. If that’s not crystal clear to you now it’ll never be.
The federal government is denying the transportation industries request for the option to test just like the provincial governments are denying the healthcare industry the option to test.
Refusal to allow the safest option tells us this is not about safety but about control.
Xmas wish list:
Min wage advocate to start their own business and pay a “living wage”.
Neocon to fight in or fund their own wars.
Climate activist to invent and sell cheap clean energy.
Welfare statist to stop reaching in other pockets and start a charity.

Sept. 2021 - unvaxxed = zero

positive = we actually may need you to come to work too.
I’ve noticed that most arguments against COVID-19 mandates are bad.
In my latest article I explain the moral argument against mandates. Stop debating irrelevant facts and STRIKE. THE. ROOT.
This episode I talk with exiled Russian dissident and libertarian Mikhail Svetov
@msvetov
Is Putin anti-globalist?
Is the invasion of Ukraine a push back against NATO or Putin imperialism?
How do we advance liberty?

As a paramedic I’ve seen a huge increase this year in loneliness emergencies. Substance abuse, OD’s, suicide, panic attacks, severe depression etc. I’m seeing addicts relapse after years of sobriety. A common theme is hopelessness and loss of connection.
Congrats
@MaximeBernier
on leaving a party that’s lost its way! Forget starting a new party. You’re an principled man, you know western civ was built on the principle of individual liberty. We already have the best principles, we have the infrastructure...let’s go!
Ottawa is under 5 states of emergency (1 federal, 2 provincial, 2 municipal) which allow governments to circumvent rule of law and democratic processes.
The media would have us believe that the people fighting this are a threat to rule of law and democracy.
#vaccinepassports
are an egregious violation of liberty and will install a caste system.
In a non-totalitarian society you have to prove that someone is a danger before you take their liberty. 1/
1) completely open economy
2) indefinite moratorium on all federal taxes
3) end central bank
4) legalize all consenting enterprise
5) unilateral free trade
6) sell crown corps and govt assets starting with CBC and refund taxpayers
7) instantiate property rights in constitution
If you’re not embarrassed to identify as a conservative this week after police states and carbon taxes I don’t know what to say.
Conservatives have ALWAYS been progressives driving the speed limit.
The real battle has ALWAYS been libertarians vs authoritarians.
How the hell does the Crown sleep at night!?
In Canada if you successfully defend yourself from private criminals your troubles are just starting.
Disabuse yourself of any delusion that government is here to protect us.
I’m the only Party Leader against the lockdowns that hasn’t sworn an Oath to the Queen and isn’t a member of the Privy Council.
My allegiance is to liberty.
COVID 19 is a public health hazard. So is shutting down the economy, inflating the money supply, redistributing wealth, prohibiting healthcare freedom, artificially incentivizing consuming over saving, prohibiting price “gouging”.
Gov’t needs to be quarantined now.
Reminder: Residential schools could not have happened under a libertarian government.
We believe in the separation of force/government and education. No other party/ideology can make that claim.
Hunger Games, Day-60, India; In major cities, the lockdown seems to have broken. The government has lost control. Hunger and desperation have trumped the fear of the police. Despite that Indian cases are going up exponentially, many cities are opening, for they cannot enforce it.
I’ll be stepping down as

Leader at our convention in August. It’s time for some fresh energy. I look forward to supporting the next Leader and getting some rest!
Thanks everyone for your support over the years. It has been an honour.

Thank you for your service boys.
The man hates trucks as much as he hates the working class that build and maintain the nation. Attacking the very edifice that supports you is not wise.
It blows me away how much so-called freedom patriots, people who protested draconian lockdowns and mandates, love the government and think that it can be reformed in a way that protects their freedom.
In two weeks scare mongers are going to have to explain how an old, overweight, KFC devouring man with the most stressful job in the world brushed off his case of

So you’re going to take money from me, spend a bunch of it on bureaucrat salaries, then give me back what’s left over? Uhhh...thanks, I guess.
It’s really simple.
I just want Rachel Notley to admit that government policy did nothing to stop the spread and it harmed and certainly killed people.
Her faith in government (a gang that uses violence to solve problems) is troubling and based in archaic superstition.
It's really simple.
I just want Danielle Smith to come out and declare that the COVID-19 vaccine has saved countless lives and is not a bioweapon — as one of her key health advisers has claimed.
Let's back science and keep Albertans safe.

Be better!
The Charter of Rights is a note that says “don’t do bad things” that our government wrote to itself to prevent it from doing bad things.
It’s working about as well as can be expected.

Here’s a novel trade war strategy: every time another country raises tariffs on Cdn imports we drop our own taxes and regulations and invite the harmed businesses/manufacturers from that country to set up shop in free market Canada.
The Bank of Canada's Governor just admitted that the Carbon Tax contributes 0.15 percentage points to inflation annually (15 basis points). The tax was implemented 4 years ago, so it's cumulative effect on inflation is 0.6% this year.
He also just admitted that if the
First they came for the bouncy castles but I said nothing cause I do not bounce.
Then they came for the hot tubs but I said nothing cause…sausage water.
Then they came for my horn and there was nobody left to honk for me.
GLOBALISM is the removal of individual rights by a cabal of global oligarchs. It’s the pointing of guns at the individual.
GLOBALIZATION is the right for individuals to trade with whomever they please no matter what globalists or nationalists think. They’re opposites.
I get $195,000 fine (2 years to pay), Jodie gets $195,000 fine, Chris gets a $13,000 fine, Britney $13,000, Erin $3,900. We are all on probation for 24 months (Jodie & I) and 18 months (Brit, Chris and Erin).
Three to five more weeks with severe water restrictions in place for Calgary now.
Sounds a lot like "two weeks to flatten the curve" doesn't it?
It's going to get pretty funky in the city soon.
“Trickle down” is a straw man created by socialists to criticize free markets. No free marketeer thinks that money trickling down is how prosperity occurs. Only opponents think that way. “We’ll tax the rich heavily then we can trickle it down!”
That money creates govt bloat.
I hope the vax passports at least have a spot to collect stamps. I want to be able to show fellow slaves all the exotic places I’ve been.
“See Frank, Denny’s and the movie theatre just like I told you.”
PSA: If I get COVID-19 it’ll be my own fault. I chose to leave my house and go to work treating COVID-19 patients. I chose to go get food where chin diaper wearing dimwits touch every damn thing. I chose to hug my kids.
DO NOT beg the government to lock others down in my name.
One day you’re too irresponsible to be trusted with; AR-15s, drugs, managing your own risk in a pandemic, baby walkers, lawn darts and minty tobacco.
The next day you’re responsible enough to control police, armies and every aspect of citizen life.

Having a vacation property or privately owning a political party are laudable. Don’t withdraw political support from Bernier those reasons. Those are idiotic reasons.
Withdraw support for the following reasons:
- Covid restrictions/mandates were bad because it was a plandemic
ER has been empty last couple of days. Only emergent patients seem to be coming.
My thoughts are with people who have stuck farts, sniffles, sore backs, weird pimples, diarrhea, stubbed toes, and hypochondria. Hopefully you’ll be back to draining our healthcare system soon.

Firefighter here. This video demonstrates crossover, the time when humidity in % drops below temp in C and fires grow exponentially. These fires could’ve started days apart. If you watch them they’ll die down overnight and surge again like this again the next day at crossover.
The most important laws are the ones restricting government.
If it wasn’t clear before, the last year ought to convince you that we need to revisit the constitution.
