Your middle-of-the-week snack-pack ...
So goes St. Paul .... :
The fact the Liberals were willing to short-circuit the democratic process paradoxically underscores the importance they ascribe to the race. They know the other parties will throw everything they have at LaSalle—Emard—Verdun: NDP leader Jagmeet Singh is already there campaigning with Sauvé. The Liberals can’t afford to lose, because the riding is a double-referendum on Trudeau: both as leader and as a Quebecer. If he can’t pull off a win in his home province, on the island of Montreal where Liberals won every seat but one in 2019 and 2021, then all bets are off for 2025.
But the NDP and Conservatives have a lot on the line as well. If the NDP pulls off an upset in Quebec, they will be seen as giant killers. However, they need to also defend Elmwood—Transcona to deflect a blue wave that threatens to eat into their blue-collar base in Manitoba and across the country.
It's just money:
Cabinet billed taxpayers $600,000 to subsidize 10 days’ worth of stand-up comedy in Montréal, accounts show. Federal managers had refused to disclose the cost when first contacted by Blacklock’s July 10: “I am proud.”
In a real country, Harjit Singh would lose his job:
Emergency Preparedness Minister Harjit Sajjan lobbied in April for the Canadian Armed Forces to send about 100 soldiers to act as backdrops at a Vancouver concert by Punjabi pop star Diljit Dosanjh, one of India’s most popular singers and actors.Mr. Sajjan’s office confirmed that he received a request on April 15 from the singer’s manager, Sonali Singh, for Canadian soldiers to participate in his April 27 sold-out performance at BC Place. The following day, Mr. Sajjan sent a letter, dated April 16, from the manager, “along with his endorsement,” to Defence Minister Bill Blair, Mr. Sajjan’s press secretary Joanna Kanga said.
Sure, Marc, you "lost track of them":
Undocumented foreigners in Canada could number as many as a half million, according to estimates by Immigration Minister Marc Miller’s department. The figures do not include lawfully landed immigrants or permit-holding students and migrant workers: “We have made a conscious decision to be an open country.”
No, you made a conscious decision to flood the country with the worst sort of people who will then vote Liberal.
Hey! Does everyone remember this chick?:
Who is the vicious Vicki Campbell @merry123459, a so-called "55-year-old Liberal Grandmother" on Twitter (X)?

She is actually a 34-year-old hard-left NDP activist Jill Piebiak.
(She's Jill Piebiak on Facebook).

You bet you do:
I’ve never wore Blackface and I’m calling Leslyn Lewis a racist too. And a Nazi sympathizer. Fukk her and victim card.

When will this guy be released?:
The sentencing of Calgary terrorism sympathizer Zakarya Rida Hussein was adjourned again Tuesday, this time so his lawyer can deal with a new “wrinkle” in the case.
Defence counsel Alain Hepner asked Justice Harry Van Harten to delay sentencing submissions to September, so he can deal with the latest issue with his client and the offender’s family.
A large contingent of supporters were present in Calgary Court of Justice as Hussein, 21, made a brief appearance in the case.
Hepner told Van Harten that although he was able to speak to Hussein Monday night at the Calgary Remand Centre, he still needed more time to deal with the latest development.
“There has been a wrinkle in the joint submission,” Hepner said, of a proposed agreement between himself and Crown prosecutors Kent Brown and Domenic Puglia.
“I’m dealing with the entire family, who’s behind me,” he said of his client’s relatives seated in the courtroom gallery.
Hepner said the unspecified problem only arose in the past two or three days.
“There’s just some issues that I have to resolve,” he said.
“I need to spend more time with my client and the family.”
Hussein pleaded guilty last Dec. 1, to a charge of facilitating a terrorist activity.
Also:
RCMP say a father and son who were arrested in Richmond Hill on terrorism charges last week were "in the advanced stages of planning a serious violent attack in Toronto."
At a news conference Wednesday morning, RCMP officials said an Integrated National Security Enforcement Team (INSET) became aware of the threat in early July.
"On July, 28 2024 GTA INSET arrested a father and son at a hotel in Richmond Hill who were in the advanced stages of planning a serious violent attack in Toronto," Assistant Commissioner Matt Peggs, Commanding Officer for Ontario told reporters.
RCMP moved in to arrest the pair at a hotel room they were renting in Richmond Hill that night after the men allegedly acquired an axe and a machete.
And - dare I say it? This is what you vote for:
Trudeau’s Canada, where if you post the truth on social media that the Government doesn’t like, they’ll send the police to your home to intimidate & interrogate you. Unbelievable.

Perhaps Parks Canada can explain the purpose of its funding.
If one knew that forest fires could level a city, it stands to reason that action should be taken, yes?:
Parks Canada managers four years ago said fire risks at Jasper National Park were a “big concern.” The agency yesterday would not explain why it failed to take all measures needed to save the Town of Jasper from a July 24 wildfire that destroyed 358 buildings: “What is the fire emergency plan?”
A transgender woman has lost her appeal to have Ontario pay for surgery to soften her masculine facial features.
Facial feminization surgery can provide results that can’t be achieved with hormones alone, surgeons have reported, and can allow trans feminine individuals “to be recognizable as women to others.”
But critics say governments must draw the line somewhere.
If you're not going to pay for cancer treatments, you shouldn't pay for this guy.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps also confirmed the death of Haniyeh, hours after he attended a swearing-in ceremony for the country’s new president Masoud Pezeshkian, and said it was investigating.
In a statement carried by Iranian media, Pezeshkian said Iran would “defend its territorial integrity, dignity, honor, and pride, and will make the terrorist occupiers regret their cowardly act.”
I would say that cowardly is murdering children and hiding behind families.
The Britons got what they voted for, and what they voted for was a mewling, whinging, deflecting gas-bag who would rather project than admit that the new normal for his country is child-murder:
A violent crowd of several hundred hurled bricks and bottles at riot police and set garbage bins and vehicles on fire in Southport, hours after a peaceful vigil for the girls, aged 6, 7 and 9, who were killed during a Taylor Swift-themed summer holiday dance and yoga class. The ambulance service said it treated 39 police officers for injuries, 27 of whom were taken to hospital.Prime Minister Keir Starmer condemned the “thuggery” and said the protesters “hijacked” the community’s grief.
Supermodel Bella Hadid posted a statement about her recent involvement in an Adidas campaign that relaunched a shoe from the Munich Olympics in 1972, when Israeli athletes were killed in an attack by Palestinian terrorists.
“I would never knowingly engage in any art or work that is linked to a horrific tragedy of any kind,” she wrote in an Instagram story.
“In advance of the campaign’s release, I had no knowledge of the historical connection to the atrocious events in 1972. I am shocked, I am upset, and I am disappointed in the lack of sensitivity that went into this campaign. Had I been made aware, from the bottom of my heart, I would never have participated.”
You wouldn't knowingly do anything because you don't know anything.
