Justin's Vagenda starts to smell

The problem with choosing people on the basis of their plumbing is that sometimes you run smack into an immovable lump of shite...

Neurologists who treat MS patients are appalled, saying her lobbying calls into question Duncan’s suitability as a neutral, dispassionate science czar. “This is the most curious appointment since Caligula named his horse as Consul,” said McGill University’s Dr. Michael Rasminsky.

“The idea that there is some kind of scientific conspiracy to stop good research from happening, or stop good research that doesn’t fit with convention from happening, I think is an unfortunate perception for someone who is now the science minister,” said Tim Caulfield, a health-policy professor at the University of Alberta.

Of course, there are at least two sides to every story, right?

Duncan will not comment for now on the criticism, said a spokeswoman this week.

You're just not gonna hear it from Minister Kirsty.

MORE: The thing that she's most known for...

...was an expensive, abject failure that Kirsty Duncan (geographer) had spent years planning. Duncan ended up digging up remains that were not below the permafrost... and thus useless.

But the story doesn't end there.

Unfortunately she didn't know that two other scientists, Jeffrey Taubenberger (pathologist) and Johan Hultin (virologist), had already got sufficient samples in Alaska—Hultin having made it to the same difficult region of Alaska in 1951.

In March of 1997 in Science News, there it was: “1918 Pandemic Virus Found.” A small sequence had been discovered by Jeffery Taubenberger. I wrote a letter saying, “If you need more specimen, let me know, and I will go back to Alaska. I’ve been there before. I know where it is. I can go back.” And I didn’t hear anything, I didn’t hear anything. And I thought, well, he knows, he thinks I’m a nut. He happened to be on vacation so he didn’t get his mail.

And he called me here. And he asked me, “When can you go?” So I said, “I can’t go this week. But I can go next week.” And I called up to Brevig. Now this time when I come, the second visit in 1997, it so happened it was in August.

And Hultin went up there with a pick and shovel. He recovered the samples and brought them back to Taubenberger. No government or private funding, No years of shameless self-promotion.

My wife's grandfather, a member of the Canadian Cyclist Battalion, (pictured, in the kilt) was wounded by German shelling and carried around shrapnel from WWI for the rest of his life.

And he was one of the lucky ones... two of my grandfather's older brothers (with four young children between them) were killed in Belgium and France, respectively.

If only some bureaucrat...

...had an official, nicely watermarked piece of paper filed away in triplicate somewhere...

OTTAWA — The RCMP believes it has “come to a dead end” in its probe of where Parliament Hill shooter Michael Zehaf Bibeau got his gun — one of the most vexing questions about the events of Oct. 22, 2014.`

Zounds, Sherlock... wouldn't this despicable act have been a job for our now-defunct 2 billion dollar long gun registry?

Unfortunately, no... that particular Liberal Party P.R stunt was simply a (not especially complete or accurate) database of legally owned firearms of law-abiding citizens. Zehaf Bibeau, (like pretty much every other criminal lowlife responsible for virtually all Canadian homicides) wouldn't have made the cut...

Zehaf Bibeau, who had a criminal record, would have been barred from buying a gun.

Obviously "barred" doesn't actually mean that anyone could stop this terrorist from acquiring a gun. Just ask all those firearms enthusiasts up at Jane & Finch.

Lest you think they weren't really trying...

The RCMP devoted more than 130 full-time investigators and staff to the case.

The only thing that might have made a difference that day is if the soldiers on duty had been allowed to carry loaded rifles. Apparently though, we don't trust our soldiers any more than we trust farmers, hunters or sport shooters who go through rigid training, testing and close scrutiny by law enforcement before being allowed to own a firearm.

But, back to our homegrown terrorist... don't even think about pissing on Zehaf Bibeau's grave. He's back in Libya having been given what some consider a martyrs burial...

The Embassy of Libya in Ottawa confirmed Friday that Zehaf-Bibeau’s body was sent to Libya last year. A family member in that country said the body was buried in mid-November.

Zehaf-Bibeau’s cousin, Ashraf Zehaf said he feels Canadian authorities provoked the Oct. 22 attack by denying a troubled young man the freedom to travel abroad. “As for the public opinion in Libya, there are some here who call him a hero..."

Boy, that's some "Religion of Peace."

Speaking of firearms, here's a question... if Justin Trudeau abolishes private ownership of guns in Canada... will he also do away with his expensive, armed to the teeth RCMP security detail?

My guess is, don't hold your breath.

RELATED: Something to consider

Serious sport shooters are out at the range every week. They are very often trained as Range Officers. Your average cop has to unholster his gun to qualify once a year. Most never shoot their weapons on duty.

Given the relatively rudimentary marksmanship required to euthanize an injured animal, these type of incidents rarely result in injuries to the public.

It's not just marksmanship at issue here. Obviously, very little thought was given to overshoot & ricochet.

Despite what you might think, the average line cop is much less proficient & safety conscious than your average hunter or target shooter.

So, if we're already in deficit...

...doesn't that just give the Liberals a running start? -- Strangely enough, it doesn't appear so...

"The new government has not yet committed to releasing a fall fiscal update."

Unfortunately, despite Bruce Jenner's newfound celebrity as the latest & greatest Kardashian sister, if there is a solution to transgender morbidity, it resides outside the surgical realm.

Anyone who looks at the academic literature, as compiled by folks like the National Institutes of Health, will see that the suicide rate for pre & post-op transsexuals is nearly identical at just over 40%.

Persons with transsexualism, after sex reassignment, have considerably higher risks for mortality, suicidal behaviour, and psychiatric morbidity than the general population.

Our findings suggest that sex reassignment, although alleviating gender dysphoria, may not suffice as treatment for transsexualism, and should inspire improved psychiatric and somatic care after sex reassignment for this patient group.

The established facts, which the transgendered community do their best to suppress, show that transsexualism is a psychiatric condition that is not "cured" by cutting off your existing genitalia and replacing them with a surgical facsimile.

It's all there in black and white...

The review of more than 100 international medical studies of post-operative transsexuals by the University of Birmingham's aggressive research intelligence facility (Arif) found no robust scientific evidence that gender reassignment surgery is clinically effective.

Actually, it's worse than that...

Research from the US and Holland suggests that up to a fifth of patients regret changing sex.

20% regret changing genders, over 40% attempt suicide.

That's $10,000 per refugee, right? That just might cover welfare housing & food for one year, but let's remember these people are not well educated, don't speak the language and have had minimal health care, so that figure needs to be multiplied, probably by at least four to cover "sponsorship and settlement services."

And it needs to be spent every year until Ahmad is employable. Call it a billion dollars yearly.

That, my friend, is on you.

Contemporary "Peace Officers" are the bored functionaries who show up after you're knee deep in liquified turds, tear up your sodden, stinking backyard and leave you struggling with the bill.

You want peace of mind & safety of person, it's all up to you, Van Damme. Too many cops these days are box ticking bureaucrats or obvious affirmative-action lottery winners (encoutered a largish female officer recently who would've had trouble with a flight of stairs, nevr mind a drunk, dusted up biker). For the moment, they still get to tote guns, (although Gawd & CBC forbid they should actually use them) but that may change under Justin "From the Heart Outward" Trudeau.

Unlike all those popular television shows, the police do not anticipate, calculate, isolate and otherwise prevent crimes. There is no magical carp breeding database a la CSI Miami that utilises electron microscopy & fish mites to take down aspiring Unabombers.

Let's look at just one particularly egregious example.

"An Ohio man had a 14-year-old girl dropped off at his home, held her captive for months, raped her and impregnated her."

Hang on a second... can we assume the electronic bracelet wasn't simply an offbeat fashion statement?

"Jackson contacted the teenager through Facebook in February after pleading not guilty an abduction case involving two females who said he held them against their will at a hotel in Blue Ash, Ohio in 2014."

So this freak had a history of abducting women and still no alarm bells?

Seems no one was able to see what was going on despite all the clues. Electronic monitoring, unscheduled visits and Jackson still pulls this off. The only thing the cops didn't do was bring this guy beer and pizza. It was even total happenstance that this guy was even caught.

"Jackson was arrested in Utah last week when he tried to run away from drug task force officers conducting a routine stop at a bus station."

COUNTERPOINT:

The reason we voted for Harper, despite his shortcomings, was because this election does indeed come down to values, and the value we cherish is responsibility. Responsibility is the opposite of entitlement.

Anyone can promise unicorns and rainbows if they max out the credit card. New infrastructure, bigger family benefits, fatter CPP cheques, the list of Liberal goodies is endless. But just because interest rates are low, doesn’t mean you borrow to buy more house than you can afford.

And...

Harper has outshone his predecessors on the environment, the economy, clean government and native empowerment.

Bravo.

Don't you fret, they'll find the real killer

Liberal Scumbaggery surfaces even before...

In the email, a copy of which was obtained by The Canadian Press, Justin Trudeau's national campaign co-chair Dan Gagnier advises five TransCanada Corp. officials to target the right people in a new government as quickly as possible so they can help shape either Liberal or NDP decisions on a national energy strategy.

So Justin's national campaign co-chair is out on his ass for the political equivalent of insider trading and, of course, the Liberal Party issues a statement blaming the controversy on the Conservatives and their "negative and mean-spirited politics."

Seems to me it's a little simpler than that...

Conservative campaign spokesman Stephen Lecce dismissed Trudeau and the Liberals as "a party run by elite insiders who sell their influence to the highest bidder to the detriment of taxpayers."

Funny isn't it... Justin's always characterising the Prime Minister as a lackey of the big corporations.

WHO IS JUSTIN'S CAMPAIGN CO-CHAIR?

The co-chair of the Liberal election campaign started working for TransCanada Corp. last spring, providing advice to the firm on its controversial Energy East pipeline project at the same time as he was trying to help Justin Trudeau win the next election.

LAST WORD: From the Liberal website

You took risks, made sacrifices and worked hard to become a Canadian citizen. Don’t let Harper take that away. Changes made by the Harper Conservatives will create two classes of citizenship and give a politician the right to revoke your citizenship without a trial.

Only Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party will protect you, your family and all Canadians by repealing the unfair sections of Bill C-24.

Fact: C24 applies only to people who choose not to renounce their former alliegance and become exclusively Canadian citizens.

Fact: Only people convicted of serious crimes who choose dual citizenship are affected.

Fact: Fear mongering like this is beneath contempt.

Mohammad Shafia's New Caliphate

Convicted honour killer continues his reign of terror as Corrections Canada looks on helplessly...Ask psychologist Robert Groves, who worked in Kingston Penitentiary. Here's his testimony on security threats facing Canada.

Shafia was "self-appointed" in his role in the prison, and said about 25 men gathered for prayers. "They were not all Muslims but believed that they dare not refuse to attend Friday prayers," he told the hearing. "This form of intimidation is what one finds routinely with zealot extremists."

Groves's testimony focused on the potential for radicalization of the prison population.

If we can accommodate fairly recent cultural affectations like the niqab, what's wrong with the thousands of years old tradition of Oriental gambling dens?

Illegal gaming houses are popping up all over north Scarborough and some are using drugs to lure gamblers from the area’s Asian community, police say.

Two establishments — one on Sheppard Ave E. and another on Pharmacy Ave. — were raided last month. Two others on Montezuma Trail were also shut down — one in August and the other on Wednesday.

Alexander Ly, 34, Bao Li, 50, and Mei Huang, 43, have been charged with keeping a common gaming house.

If we're going to recognise one society's cultural traditions, how can we, in good conscience, reject those of any other?

Justin's all for the niqab and he's promised to get cracking on legalising drugs. If he comes out for homebrew casinos he'll be hitting the cultural relativity trifecta.

My guess is, if Mike Harris...

"Ontario will add $50 million a year to the $20 million it already spends on 'assisted reproduction.'"

Kathleen Wynne, despite running horrific deficits and apparently unconcerned about the possible appearance of a conflict of interest, will now use additional tens of millions of taxpayer dollars annually to subsidise in-vitro fertilisation.

Obviously, one of the significant demographics interested in IVF will be women suffering from so-called “social infertility” - that is, women who reject the increasingly obsolete and icky idea of male-female procreation... (which would've absolutely, positively in no way influenced Ontario's first gay Premier).

But, hey... let's look at the numbers.

IVF currently accounts for about 2% of live births in Ontario. With only a 30% success rate and an estimated 4000 women taking advantage of the Premier's largesse, this would result in 1200 births annually at a additional cost of $58,000 per Corningware baby.

For the religious and ethically sensitive among us, note that multiple eggs are removed for each procedure and extra fertilised embryos are routinely destroyed if not used.

Now, call me a middle aged, non-disabled, caucasian, Christian male... but surely there are better ways to serve the greater good?

How about 70 million dollars a year to find families for the 47,885 Canadian children in foster care, 62 per cent of whom were aged 14 and under. (source 2011 Census)

That's 12 choices apiece for each of those 4000 Ontario women. Of course, that'll never happen.

Sorry kids, Kathleen Wynne has 1200 hypothetical babies per year who are apparently more important than you.

The Great Ontario Snow Job

Just something to think about while you're sitting stalled in traffic this winter...

The provincial auditor reported in April that the Liberal government did save money on winter road maintenance over the last five years, but at a cost that included taking twice as long to clear highways of snow or ice than it did previously.

Prior to the contract changes in 2009, Ontario’s most travelled highways were cleared about 2.1 hours after a storm, but auditor general Bonnie Lysyk said that increased to an average of 4.7 hours by 2013-14.

But wait, it gets better.Kathleen Wynne decided to hand back the monies that these companies had forfeited for non-performance and then buy them new equipment.

The auditor reported that the Wynne government waived $4.8 million of $13.3 million in fines levied against contractors in the winter of 2013/14, while another $5.2 million was being reassessed, reducing the fines by up to 76 per cent.

It's like Dalton McGuinty paying a huge corporation a billion dollars not to build a gas plant. The malfeasance never ends.

Carillion has eight contracts with the province - worth $87 million a year - to maintain highways around Chatham, London, Peel and Halton regions, Simcoe, Huntsville, Thunder Bay, Bancroft and the Kingston area.

Who owns Carillion and how much do they contribute to the Liberal Party of Ontario?

This past winter, the service cuts hit home. The explanation given was a reduction in the number of plows and the closure of three salt yards in Northumberland County.

The current contractor, Carillion Canada Inc., is only allowed nine plows compared to the 17 run the previous company, Cruickshank Construction. Basically, the service was cut in half to save money.

Despite measures such as this the provincial Liberals are still running a horrendous deficit. Where is all that money going?

What else are Kathleen Wynn's corporate friends at Carillion up to?

Sundridge, ON – On November 12, 2013, the Ontario Court of Justice ordered Carillion Canada Inc. to pay a total penalty of $250,000 for violating two counts of the Fisheries Act for “the harmful alteration, disruption, or destruction of fish habitat”, and one count of violating Section 36(3) for “depositing or permitting the deposit of a deleterious substance into waters frequented by fish.”

The violations stem from repeated sediment spills, and the subsequent destruction of fish habitat in Stirling Creek, which is part of the the Magnetawan River watershed near Parry Sound.

Not surprisingly, the government itself was mixed up in this incident.

The sentencing decision for the Ontario Ministry of Transportation took place on September 24, 2013, when it was also ordered to pay a total penalty of $250,000.
