Canada the Most Unfair

Having morally careened off of the cliff, what can bring the country to what it once was?:

Held under a white tent with speeches, cocktails and artfully scattered flowers on the ground, the launch event felt more like party than a building opening.

While Allard focuses on palliative and doesn't perform MAID herself, she says the end of a life, including doctor-assisted death, can be a celebration too.

"We celebrate weddings, we prepare for a wedding," she said. "I won't disappoint you, but we're all going to die. So why not prepare for this great moment and celebrate this great moment which is our death?"

 

Because there is no celebration in ceasing the thing that gives your existence meaning. 

 

 

Thank you for risking your life.

Here is nothing for it:

National search and rescue programs have left many volunteers uninsured despite obvious hazards, says a Department of Public Safety report. It recommended a federal remedy to support thousands of volunteers credited with daring rescues: “Insurance is critical.” 

 

 

Any population that is allowed to think and act for itself is a dangerous one to a government that asserts itself as the final arbiter of one's very life:

Sean Feucht, an American Christian conservative Trump-supporting rocker, had Canadian concerts banned from Nova Scotia to British Columbia. And Montreal is actually fining a church $2500 for having the "audacity" to host one of his events. Those who find Feucht "offensive" are always free not to attend his performances. But show some basic decency to others who might wish to hear him. Live and let live. Leave others alone and respect their right to do as they please, just as they must respect your personal freedoms.  

Additionally, the provincial government in Quebec plans to table legislation outlawing prayer in public spaces -- perhaps in part as a response to street praying during pro-Palestinian demonstrations in Montreal and other parts of the province. Newsflash: prayer and peaceful protest are basic human rights, although traffic lanes must be kept open for emergency vehicles. Then again, there is also the popularity of secularism per se with the "sophisticated" separation of church and state crowd (very prominent in Quebec) who have misinterpreted its intent.  ...

Alas, tyranny in Canada isn't limited to anti-Christian bigotry and the feral Jew hatred that has become the rage. Just ask Amy Hamm, once a registered nurse and nurse educator in British Columbia. Her troubles date back to 2020 when she and a few others sponsored a billboard in Vancouver that read

"I  JK Rowling"

The Harry Potter author was a darling of the left-wing set until she spoke out against men using women's bathrooms and change rooms, and participating in women's sports. Horror of horrors, she declared that gender (or sex -- they are synonymous, contrary to what some may claim) is a biological reality -- not a social construct. Imagine that!!  

Anyway, Ms. Hamm going public in support of women's rights, female-only spaces, and asserting that there are only two sexes led to transphobia accusations that landed her in hot water with the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNW), who, five years later after countless investigations, hearings, and all manner of bureaucratic hassles for Ms. Hamm, caved to the mob in March, 2025 by finding her guilty of unprofessional conduct. Her nursing license will be suspended for one month effective when and if she returns to the profession. And for good measure, she was ordered to pay north of $93,000 in legal fees. If all else fails, just break someone financially. 

Finally, a recent development in Lindsay, Ontario raises concerns about private property rights and the right to self-defense. Jeremy McDonald was doing what normal people do at 3:00 AM, sleeping in his apartment, when one Michael Breen broke in armed with a crossbow, which he used to repeatedly strike Mr. McDonald, who was left with no alternative but to defend himself and his property (something he had every right to do). A scuffle ensued, McDonald was able to get his hands on a knife, and, when the dust settled, Breen, who was on probation, ended up pretty much the worse for wear. Breen was subsequently airlifted to hospital with reportedly life-threatening injuries, and the police laid several charges against him. So far, so good, but here is the corker: McDonald was also charged with aggravated assault and assault with a weapon.
