Just 3 weeks ago I cautioned Canadians that a resume is a poor way to judge a person.  My concern was Mark Carney.  On paper Carney is the perfect Candidate for Prime Minister.  Mark Carney is, however, not the man his resume describes.  Carney is just another dangerous Idiot with delusions of grandeur.  His entire history is full of stupid statements, beliefs, and actions.  Every time he opened his mouth it made me wonder how on earth someone so clueless could get a PHD.  Well, now I know.

On Friday, the Canadian prime minister and former governor of the Bank of England was forced to deny allegations he copied 10 passages of text for his 1995 doctorate.

Mark Carney’s PHD is as fake as the rest of his public persona.  The real Mark Carney is not smart or even likable.  That much is apparent to anyone who can see past the polished resume.

Indeed, the dislike of Carney on both sides of the British political spectrum was rather remarkable to see.

Here’s the real kicker: “Carney is the epitome of a remote, globalized, technocratic elite. He is very good at self-promotion, at collecting trophy jobs and of course negotiating fabulously generous salaries and expenses for himself along the way. He is just not very good at delivering.”

Mark Carney would be another big mistake, but he still has strong support from the same demographic that helped elect Justin Trudeau, Boomers.

For the Carney Liberals, riding a black-swan excuse to a potential fourth term, it’s been bingo halls, appeals to those who have paid off their mortgages, spend five months a year in Palm Springs (while still making their entire online personality one that criticizes America,) and who have been immune to the wreckage and reality of Canada’s real economy.

I am ashamed of my generation.  As I have mentioned before, I am officially a boomer; born at the tail end of the boom.  And, like other boomers, I have done well.  I started poor and now while not wealthy I am certainly affluent.  My family does not need anything.  I worked hard to lift myself up.  Most boomers did as well.  That is always their argument when boomers face criticism.  But most boomers refuse to acknowledge that it was easier for them than it is for their grandchildren.  Opportunities were taken from future generations because of the voting choices of boomers.

The entire western world lost all fiscal sanity in 1971.

So what is so special about 1971?  1971 is the first year baby boomers became old enough to vote.  Baby boomers are the most self-centered generation the world may have ever seen.  They wanted everything, they wanted it now, and they wanted the government to pay for it without raising taxes.  This was a game that the sociopaths in government were only too happy to play.  Every election candidates promised to spend even more and every election the boomers voted for the person promising to spend the most.

Boomers are not the only generation to blame for the economic malaise we are in.  They are responsible though for starting the ball rolling by voting for politicians that promised to give them services that would be paid for by future generations.  Every generation since then has voted the same selfish way.  But those generations have realized that it can’t continue.  Polls show younger generations are turning away from the parties of “free” stuff but not the boomers.  Mark Carney could win the election because boomers as a group still won’t admit what they did to their grandchildren.

If the rumors are true Mark Carney will call an election today.  Primarily because of Donald Trump the political discussion is now centered on tariffs and taxes.  Those are important issues to be sure, but they are not the only issues.  Taxes are not the only tool government uses to destroy lives.  Canadians need to be reminded how governments turned cold and flu season into a weapon.

COVID was a crime.  Some in government were part of the plan while others were just useful idiots.  Not all the useful idiots were in government and some of the non-governmental useful idiots apologized for their reprehensible actions.

When I think of my selfishness in those first few weeks of covid, I am ashamed. I am ashamed because frankly, I stopped thinking about others. This was the big lie that we told ourselves – that the restrictions were about helping other people.

But not a single useful idiot in government has apologized for what they did.  Canadians should be demanding accountability, but they are not.  The useful idiots in the Government are unrepentant and still wield authority.

Why does nobody want to talk about the most tragic breakdown of leadership and ethics in our lifetimes?

To understand why the pandemic finally forced us to address institutional failure, we must acknowledge the facts. The virus didn’t cause lockdowns. Human beings decided to impose lockdowns, which failed to stop the deaths and the spread. Lockdowns inflicted massive damage on children and literally killed people. 

We are lurching from crisis to crisis and the people who have caused every one of them are still in power.

After what Canadians went through over the last 5 years this election should be about more than just Donald Trump.  It should be about complete governmental reform.  That means talking about uncomfortable truths.  This is a much more difficult and ultimately more important discussion than the simplistic “orange man bad” narrative.

Canadians need to do something that they usually refuse to do; confront reality.  The reality is that our current governments are so incompetent that we can’t afford to eliminate money laundering.

Ahmed says the real reason federal and provincial governments have not made a significant dent in the laundering of dirty money is, basically, because they like the cash in the economy.

Canadian governments are so incompetent that our economy can’t survive without economic activity associated with organized crime.  Do you remember voting for that?  This level of incompetence allows evil within government to thrive.  What happened during COVID could not have happened if we had even a single competent government in the country.  Without useful idiots, evil is powerless.

If you want Canada to continue to struggle and underperform focus on Donald Trump this election.  If you want to get out from under evil, focus on government competence and accountability.  Canada’s real enemies are not in Mar-a-Lago.  They are in Ottawa and the provincial capitals.  Get rid of the useful idiots and evil will have nowhere to hide.

It is hard to find much COVID news anymore.  Trump is making so much noise in the US right now that it is drowning out everything else which is a shame.  COVID is still important.  If we choose to let it slide into the background while we focus on Trump’s trade war it will happen again.  We will lose our rights and incomes to some other manufactured emergency.

One thing that did happen recently is that Montana introduced a bill to ban mRNA vaccines.  The latest status of that bill however is not encouraging.

Last Action

(H) Missed Deadline for General Bill Transmittal (on 03/12/2025)

I am not that familiar with the system in Montana but I think this means the deep state was able to delay this bill long enough to keep it off the legislative agenda.  Score one more win for the Deep State.

This is what makes Trumps other war, on the deep state, so important.  Unelected bureaucrats all over the world have far too much power.  COVID would not have even been possible without the deep state.  Remember the virus on its own did very little damage.  The damage was all done by governments.

Covid didn’t order lockdowns and issue stay-at-home orders. Covid didn’t mandate masks and vaccines. Covid didn’t close schools. Government officials did that, and, yes, they actually had agency and alternatives to Covid tyranny.

Ultimately this lands at the feet of politicians because they abdicated their responsibility to the bureaucrats.  Most politicians are just useful idiots for the deep state.  It is the bureaucracy making the decisions.  Feckless politicians, who were way out of their intellectual depth on COVID, just rubber stamp the tyranny.

Trumps attempts to dismantle the deep state could be a pivotal point in history and we should not forget that COVID was part of this.  COVID is proof that this is not just an American problem.  The deep state exists everywhere.  It is powerful, malevolent, and must be destroyed.

For the first 3 decades of my career I purposely moved up to senior management positions in the pursuit of higher income.  As a result I often found myself hiring new people.  Thankfully shortly after becoming a mid-level supervisor I took a course in interviewing.  That course changed the way I conducted interviews.

The premise of the course was, “ask a theoretical question, and get a theoretical answer”.  By this I mean don’t ask a prospective candidate what they might do in a future situation.  Instead discuss what they actually did in a real situation in their past work history.   There is often a stark difference between what a candidate says they would do and what they actually do.

Because I was often hiring technical staff I found the easiest way was to ask them about things they had taken credit for on their resume.  I would ask them to go in to detail about how it started what their role was and what was the outcome.  What I found was that most people could not intelligently discuss things presented on their resume as accomplishments.  They were taking credit for things they were only peripherally involved in or at times had nothing to do with.

I now understand that most resumes should be classed as historical fiction.  I remember one particularly uncomfortable interview.  It was for a senior engineer position.  The candidate came highly recommended by people he had worked with, none of whom were engineers.  I will admit his resume did look very good.  He had a very impressive list of accomplishments.  The problem was they were all lies.

I did my usual shtick.  I found interesting things on his resume and tried to have a detailed conversation about them.  It did not go well.  The candidate could not provide details on anything and was continually evasive.  After about 20 minutes I thought this is getting embarrassing and I should shut up and just find a way to politely end the interview.

I did not, however, get a chance to find a polite way to end the interview.  The candidate jumped to his feet and angrily declared I had no right to question what was on his resume.  He informed me that the only purpose for an interview was for me to get to know him as a person.  He then stormed out of the room thereby letting me know exactly who he was as a person.

My point is that Resumes are often works of fiction.  Do not hire anyone based on what they look like on paper.  This is a lesson Canadians need to take to heart in the next federal election.  Our newly appointed prime Minister, Mark Carney, and the Mark Carney on his resume are 2 entirely different people.

But the truth is rather less glamorous. Over eight years at the Bank of England, Carney was at best an indifferent Governor, and, at worse, a disappointing failure. Despite his huge salary of more than £600,000 a year, more than any of his predecessors had been paid, he seemed to have little feel for the role. The City quickly nick-named him “the unreliable boyfriend” for his constant changes of direction on interest rates.

He printed too much money in the wake of the financial crisis, and then repeated the mistake all over again in the wake of the referendum on leaving the EU, responding as if he was in the middle of a financial emergency instead of dealing with a minor blip in trading relations.

Instead, Canada is going to get a self-regarding technocrat who may have plenty of connections but has left behind a trail of wreckage in every major job he has ever held.

I am certain that if I had the opportunity to interview Mark Carney for the job of Prime Minister it would end with Carney storming out of the room.

Another study has shown that people who were foolish enough to trust government are more likely to die of all causes than people who said no to the toxic jabs.  Despite the overwhelming evidence the researchers were not willing to risk future grant money by condemning the vax.  They think it might still have something to do with COVID.

Our study reveals nuanced excess mortality dynamics post-vaccination, providing crucial insights for policymakers and stressing the necessity of continued vigilance and adaptive strategies against COVID-19’s diverse impacts.

This is getting repetitive in its stupidity.  If we did a study that said smokers get long cancer more often than non-smokers no one would hesitate to blame cigarettes.  Multiple studies have now linked the COVID jabs to excess deaths, yet no one wants to blame the jabs.  They still want to link it to COVID even though un-jabbed people who had COVID have none of these problems.

Our willful blindness is based on fear.  People who administered the Jabs are afraid that they will be held accountable for injuries and deaths.  People who took the Jabs are afraid they took a chance with their health that might not be over yet.  Though it has subsided somewhat young people are still “dying suddenly” and falling ill.  It is hard to admit to yourself that the government fooled you into taking treatment you did not need that may have permanently damaged your immune system.

The latest study of vaccinated seniors shows exactly that.  COVID vaccinated seniors have higher all cause mortality due to seroreversion.

Nursing home residents were 47 % more likely to serorevert in the 10 months after COVID-19 vaccination than staff. Infection naïvety, older age and high resident care dependency level were found as predictors for seroreversion. The all-cause mortality rate in vaccinated residents over 10 months was 14 % 

I did not know what serorevert meant so I consulted an online dictionary.

After seroconversion, the antibody is detectable by standard techniques and remains detectable unless the individual seroreverts, in a phenomenon called seroreversion, or loss of antibody detectability, which can occur due to weakening of the immune system or decreasing antibody concentrations over time.

We shut down the world to protect seniors from COVID.  Then we gave those seniors a treatment that damaged their immune systems, making them more likely to die of everything including COVID.

How much more evidence do we need before we start prosecuting people?  There were thousands of useful idiots who went along because it made them feel virtuous.  Those people are only guilty of stupidity and lack of character.  They deserve to be shamed but not punished.  The ring leaders, however, are a different story.  They knew what they were doing was wrong but profitable.  Profit won out over lives.  The people at the center of this conspiracy killed millions with their greed.  They must be prosecuted.
