Mark and Danielle
The tariff war continues. There is a definite divergence of approach between Danielle Smith and Mark Carney.
Mark Carney, in his press conference, the day after Donald Trump imposed his latest round of tariffs on Canada, put it quite simply. He said that we are being attacked and we are at war. He left no doubt, as to where Canada stands on the attacks by Donald Trump. Donald Trump keeps calling Mark Carney ‘ governor’. Donald Trump keeps referring to Canada as a 51st state. Donald Trump wants to destroy Canada, plain and simple.
Mark Carney’s approval rating, on this issue, is around 75%. He is definitely taking the Canada strong elbows up approach. Meanwhile, Donald Trump gets angrier and more frustrated every day. The same thing with his lap dog, Howard Lutnick.
Danielle Smith, on the other hand, rather than take a team Canada approach, as all the other premiers are taking, is taking a team Alberta approach. She says we need to double down on negotiations. She says tariffs are bad. She says that Alberta oil is off the table. She is appeasing the separatists, many who want Alberta to become a 51st state.
Well, Danielle, you know who else took an appeasement approach. Neville Chamberlain with Adolf Hitler. That did not turn out too
well did it? Chamberlain sold out Czechoslovakia to Hitler. Now you want to sell out Canada. You are even going to the states this week to negotiate. I don’t know with who. You’re most likely going to try and sell out Canada
Danielle Smith, you disgust me. You and your separatist followers.
That’s all I have

Getting Your News
This is for all the Alberta separatists, maple MAGA supporters, MAGA supporters, and anti-vaccers. Where do you get your news from? Seriously?
To the anti-vaccers, you do not believe in the scientists who all have university degrees, who all have spent years of their lives, studying the stuff researching this stuff. Rather you believe in quacks like RFK Junior. How is that doing for you? You all are a special breed of people.
To the other groups who say that the mainstream media is owned by the liberals. Have you taken a look at, especially in Canada, who owns the newspaper industry. Just go no further than the American owned Post media network. They own the national post, Vancouver Sun, Calgary Herald, Edmonton Journal and Montreal Gazette. Pretty well the whole country.
But they keep shooting out liberal crap, these supporters say, Where the hell do you get your news? A couple years back someone I used to know kept quoting the Epoch times. The Epoch times is a US based international outlet owned by the Falon Gong religious movement. Like it is way out there and it is loaded with outlandish conspiracy theories.
But these supportersrely on it for their information. Then there are other Canadian services like rebel news, and Moose on the loose, most likely operated from somebody’s mom‘s basement. They would rather trust the news from these lunatic fringe sources that than they would from well established media outlets.
I think it was Rush Limbaugh who really started attacking mainstream media with his term drive-by media. Well, Rush, congratulations, you’ve accomplished what you set out to do. I hear you’re complaining about the heat where you are right now. That’s your reward, I am sure.
That’s all I have.

Anti-vaccers Take Heed
The United States has seen five measles deaths since last year. That is more measles’s deaths then the combined total in three decades. Measles is on the rise. There have been more measles cases, 2700+, this year that there has been in over three decades
RFK Junior and his stupidity is the cause of this. Donald Trump and his desire never to be wrong is the cause of this. A little while ago Trump actually said that he has seen vaccines the size of soda pop bottles given to kids.
America, this is your secretary of health and this is your president. This is how far your country has fallen.
That’s all I have for today.

Lake America Baby
Donald, you sure showed us Canadians, didn’t you? Changing the name of Lake Ontario to lake America. The 80 year-old president with the mind of a five-year-old, an immature five-year-old, a spoiled immature five-year-old baby.
This will go over as well as the Gulf of America. In other words, it will go over like a lead balloon. While you were doing that, Mark Carney is presiding over the strongest economy. Canada has had in over three years.
For those Pierre Poilievre, sky is falling, supporters that recession that you talked about in the first quarter, ended up not being. The negative 0.1% GDP rate has been revised to a +0.3%. Even better, the second quarter GDP rate has been announced and it is at 3.3%. Now, take into account that this is during Trump‘s tariff war on Canada, such as 50% on steel 50% on aluminum.
So while Donald Trump is renaming, lakes, Mark Carney is retooling our Canadian economy. Thank God that Canada has a leader while the US has a baby.
That’s all I have.

Waiting
Next, unless anything unprecedented happens, will be Canada’s retaliatory tariffs on September 8. After that, nobody knows even Donald Trump probably doesn’t know what he would do next.
Donald, you tried to get the public focussed away from the Epstein files. They are still haunting you by the way. So you use Iran as a diversion. That’s not going too well. This two week war is now just six months or is it seventh. So, now you are using Canada as a diversion. Where do you go next Donald? Canada is not turning out to be the easy mark you thought it would be. In fact you have called us Canadians NASTY!!! a number of times, saying that we are the worst country to negotiate with.
Donald, you are screwing things and screwing your supporters so bad that you now got them voicing that communism is bad but,that, you Donald love North Korea. Can you get any more twilight zone- ish than that? Actually, I believe you can and that’s scary.
That’s all I have for today.

Goodbye Dolly
Dolly Parton has passed away at the age of 80. She was a terrific songstress and songwriter. The two songs I most associate with her is Jolene, which she sang, and I will always love you which she wrote and was made famous by Whitney Houston in the movie, The Bodyguard. She was also a terrific actress, as evidenced in the movie 9 to 5.
She was a philanthropist donating millions upon millions in charities. As proof of how she crossed divides, Donald Trump is lowering flags to half mast in honour of her. To me that says something.
That’s all I have.

Ford Goes To Town
To all the Pierre Poilievre supporters out there. If you have him leading the conservative party in the next federal election, the conservatives will get whipped. Even JD Vance calls him a non-entity. If you want your party to have a real shot at becoming the next ruling party, after the next federal election, look no further than Doug Ford.
Mark Carney has reestablished his role as Captain Canada in the past few days. Doug Ford should be considered as co-captain. Doug Ford wants to use every tool in Canada‘s toolbox on this trade war with Donald Trump, including adding a surtax on energy resources sent to the states such as electricity and oil.
Doug Ford went in front of the cameras yesterday and he went to town on Donald Trump. He knew that Donald Trump was watching and he went out out of his way to get Donald Trump’s goat.
I don’t respond to a dictator like President Trump, a bully like President Trump. As I said before, he’s the type of guy in school that would take your lunch money one day, take your toque off your head the next day, and then steal your running shoes. But I’m not going to take any advice off a guy that’s the king of bankruptcies. He’s actually tariffing his own people, taxing his own people.
Doug Ford also called Trump a loser, a bully, and said that Trump could kiss his ass..
And then we have Danielle Smith. Doug Ford called Daniel Smith, after being in front of the cameras. Smith later came out and again said that retaliatory tariffs are not productive and she is not going to use Alberta oil in this war for Canadian survival. Danielle, you are a sniffling, traitorous coward.
That’s all I have.

Dust Settling
These are just some of the demands that the US was making of Canada in this trade negotiation. They wanted to launch an attack on one of our to recognized national languages. They wanted the right of first refusal to our critical minerals. They wanted to change us to our Buy Canada policy. They wanted control over who we could make trade agreements with.
They did not come into this, wanting to negotiate a trade deal. They came into this wanting to take away our sovereignty.
Mark Carney, on Saturday, called this a war. It is it’s an attack on our Canadian identity. He was right on when he said the US makes deals that are written in pencil. Any deal that could’ve been made would’ve been changed soon after depending on Donald Trump‘s moods.
A poll, just taken over the weekend, shows 76% of Canadians supporting Canada walking away from this travesty. The premieres are full support. Well, one is a bit wishy-washy. Can you guess who that would be?
Of course. Alberta’s Danielle Smith. She is vowing to hold a separation referendum, as early as next spring, should the separatists win the October vote to have a referendum. Yes Alberta is having a vote first to have a referendum before they actually have a referendum.
Danielle, first of all, the vote to have a referendum will be voted down. Second of all, there will be a provincial election, next year, and you will be voted out on your traitorous ass.
That’s all I have.

Danielle’s Folly
John Ivison is a political journalist on the National Post, a major right wing newspaper in Canada. He is a super pro right winger. Following, Canada, walking away from the trade negotiations and following Mark Carney’s press conference, Saturday morning, all the premieres of Canada’s provinces and territories gave full support to Mark Carney, except for one. Sadly it is our own premier, Daniel Smith. Of course it is.
Smith is in a trap. She has set up an environment for herself such that half her supporters are separatists who would not be totally displeased with becoming a 51st state. She has already said that if there is a yes on the October 19 vote, she will hold a referendum on separation. She will hold it as soon as next Spring. So we can see what her stripes are. That would be the stripes on the US flag.
Canada, this Albertan, is fully supportive of the decision made by Mark Carney to pull out of the negotiations and to impose retaliatory tariffs on September 8. All the provinces and territories will be behind Mark Carney, and team Canada. Unfortunately, our province because of Daniel Smith, will be on the sidelines.
That’s all I have.

Stagecoach Turns Pumpkin
Midnight came and Cinderella‘s stagecoach has turned back into a pumpkin. But we are still all here and most likely united more than ever before.
The details kept getting worse all week. No relief on softwood lumber. Aluminum and steel tariffs would still be at 25%. Auto tariffs still at 15%.
Trump saying that a deal was in place on Tuesday. JD Vance, laughing at Canada, particularly at Pierre Poilievree, calling him a non-entity. You did get that one right JD. How has your couch been doing lately? No, never mind.
Then there was talk about how the results of these negotiations would affect the results of the CUSMA negotiations. And after all this, the US still wanted their booze back on our shelves
Mark Carney had no choice. Basically he said screw this and he sent his negotiating team back home.
No one knows, right now, how this is gonna end. But, everything Donald Trump has touched of late has turned into crap. Just look at Iran. Canada will stick this out. It will be tough, but you don’t mess around with an angry Canada goose, you just don’t.
That’s all I have.
