There is a great debate going on in Canada about our contract to purchase 88 F35 fighter jets.  The jets are to replace the aging CF18s, but too many Canadians are butthurt by Donald Trump.  They want to cancel the contract and order jets from Sweden instead.  The average clueless Canadian thinks this knee jerk reaction will really damage Donald Trump.  Once again, I am forced to marvel at the stupidity of the average Canadian.

The last time The Canadian military bought new fighters was 1980.  Canceling this purchase denies the US the opportunity to sell us a handful of jets every 45 years.  Do you think canceling the equivalent of 2 jets per year is going to be a grave injury to the world’s largest economy?

Canadians do not understand macroeconomics and cannot do math.  They also don’t understand business contracts.  I am sure that there is a break fee in this contract.  If we don’t go ahead with it, we will still be obliged to pay Lougheed Martin.  They will make their profit from us anyway.  The only difference will be that we have no planes to show for it.

I really don’t want to write another post this morning about the stupidity of the average Canadian.  There is a surprising reason for that.  I also question the wisdom of the contract but not for the same reason.  I want to know why we buy jets and not drones.

On the killing fields of Ukraine, an estimated 70% of casualties are now caused by drones.

The Ukraine war has been fought with drones, missiles, and artillery.  The tanks and jets that we sent made almost no difference.  They were destroyed at long distance by Russian missiles which allowed drones to rule the battlefield.  Portable missile technology has gotten so good that it is making jets and tanks obsolete.  So why are we still purchasing jets and Tanks?  Central planning, that’s why.

National militaries are great examples of central planning.  A few people go into a room and make all the decisions.  They buy jets and tanks because those technologies worked before and look good in parades. Our centrally planned military is just not nimble enough to respond to changing market conditions.  That is not the case in the hyper capitalist world of drug trafficking.

They warned Kyiv that cartel members were infiltrating Ukraine’s foreign ­fighter cadres to learn how to fly first-person view (FPV) kamikaze drones, which give pilots a bird’s-eye view of the target as they close in with an explosive payload.

This is an odd but effective example of Capitalism vs state planning.  Canada is still buying fighters when we should be buying drones.  Conversely, Mexican drug cartels are working feverishly to leverage new technology.  It is shocking how the Canadian government can be so deeply in bed with drug Cartels and still not see this.  You can’t teach old socialists new tricks, I guess.

Reimmigration is now being discussed even in woke countries like Canada and with good reason.  Citizens of First World nations have finally realized that our governments are lying about immigration.  You cannot fix problems caused by declining native birth rates by bringing in people who are not net contributors.

the left’s promise that foreigners would feed into the pension system falters when confronted with the data.

Citing the article, Italian commentator Francesca Totolo wrote on X: “No, immigrants do not pay pensions to Italians. The absolute poverty rate among families of only foreigners is 35.2%, while among families of only Italians it is 6.2%. This means that it is and will be Italians who have to pay for assistance, subsidies, housing, and pensions to foreigners without resources.”

Mass immigration is the quickest way to collapse a modern welfare state.  It is beyond stupid to believe that importing people who pay little to no taxes, but demand services, will help balance the government’s budget.  This should be obvious to everyone yet some governments like Canada are still encouraging foreigners to show up and demand services.

The feds are using the fact health care in Canada is free to try and lure immigrants to come to the country.

You might wonder why the Canadian government would promise health care to attract immigrants that the economy does not need and that will forever burden the state.  Sadly, the questionable actions of the Canadian government always have the same motivation, corruption.  Our current immigration system harms the country but benefits individuals.  It benefits the immigrant but more importantly it financially benefits people connected to the government.

Su, gave Biao immigration advice and offered what looked like a clear path to permanent residency — for a steep price tag of up to $110,000. Biao ended up paying $40,000 before walking away.

An expert told CBC that immigrating to Canada shouldn’t cost nearly that much; it typically costs between $5,000 to $10,000 to hire an immigration consultant for a process similar to Biao’s.

Immigration fraud is a 10 billion dollar a year industry in Canada.  Immigration lawyers and consultants are making fortunes from both legal and illegal immigration all at the expense of taxpayers.  And this is not a uniquely Canadian problem.  The entire western world is being destroyed so that people in and connected to government can make money.

The machine is self-reinforcing. Ministries measure virtue by euros or dollars spent, not migrants integrated. NGOs depend on inflows to fund payrolls. When migration dips, budgets shrink; when it surges, the system thrives. Western border regimes now behave like any other subsidy scheme: failure pays.

illegal migration happens because people profit from it.  The western world is being destroyed by greed.  At this point stopping it will not save us from bankruptcy.  We already have an unsustainable problem.  Anyone who can do math knows the only way to keep the welfare state from bankruptcy is to push people out of the system.  You can let the system collapse and push everyone, including citizens, out.  Or you can start sending people home.

Politicians and bureaucrats have put us in a position where there is no nice or charitable way to save our countries.  We must stop being a door mat that benefit shoppers wipe their feet on.  We need to start sending people home and then we need to deal with the greedy elites that put us in this position.

A study came out a couple weeks ago that concluded people who suffered heart damage from the COVID jabs may require ongoing medical care for the rest of their now shortened lives.

Pericarditis following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination can evolve into a recurrent, difficult-to-manage inflammatory condition. Effective treatment may require IL-1 blockade to disrupt the autoinflammatory cycle. Prompt recognition and early escalation of therapy are essential to reduce morbidity and prevent complications.

Remember when Saint Fauci told us that myocarditis and pericarditis from the Jabs was mild and temporary?  That lying little weasel had no reason to believe what he was saying.  In fact, he had every reason to believe the opposite because there is no such thing as mild heart damage.

Millions of people have become profit centers for big pharma.  They are now forced to purchase medication continuously to treat a condition caused by the same companies that sell them the medication.  The more I look at vaccines the more I am convinced that their primary purpose is not to prevent disease.  It is to produce customers.

This tragedy was caused by greed and fraud.  Millions of people were victims of a gene therapy fraudulently sold as a vaccine.  The justification for the deception was a worldwide pandemic that wasn’t.

This means that the paradigm that a spreading viral respiratory disease caused the excess mortality during Covid is false.

Instead, the excess mortality appears to be entirely iatrogenic and induced by the imposed so-called pandemic response.

I have said many times; if the government had not blundered in and made everything worse COVID would have been nothing more than a bad flu year.  We have bad flu years all the time.  The difference with COVID was that governments wildly overreacted to an overhyped threat.  That virus killed few.  Governments killed many.

Much of what happened during COVID was stupid people doing stupid things out of fear.  Modern governments are full of stupid people.  That makes them dangerous.  Still to produce something as tragic as COVID that stupidity must be focused.  It is the people directing the army of useful idiots in government that are the real criminals.  So far, those criminals have proven to be above the law.

If we continue to ignore the criminality at the core of the COVID response it will happen again.  There will be a new virus, new vaccine, and more people dead at the hands of government.  Is that the future that you want?  Because our collective inaction guarantees that it is the future we will get.

Another chapter of the greatest crime in history closed this week in Canada.  Freedom Convoy organizers Tamara Lich and Chris Barber received their sentences for the heinous crime of embarrassing the government.

Tamara Lich is not going to jail.

Nor is her Freedom Convoy sidekick Chris Barber.

But they will be under house arrest. And not just for a couple of weeks but a whole year.

Some people are relieved that neither person received actual jail time but how was that even possible in the first place?  How could you be threatened with jail for a peaceful protest when Canadian courts routinely refuse to jail even violent criminals?

There are so many double standards here. Many other protests turned into violence where fires burned and property was damaged, but harsher justice was administered to some of those who were protesting COVID-19 mandates, It’s also lost on few that so many criminals with far more serious crimes have received far less in terms of length of trial, effort of the Crown and sentencing.

These are certainly stiffer sentences than some parliamentarians have received. For example, in 2021, former Liberal Kitchener South-Hespeler MP Marwan Tabbara was handed a conditional discharge and placed on probation for three years after his guilty plea was entered for two charges of assault on a man and a woman in Guelph. He also pleaded guilty to the amended charge of “unlawfully” being “in a dwelling” or home

Conservative Sen. Patrick Brazeau was given an absolute discharge in 2015 on his guilty plea to assault and narcotics counts, which allowed him not to serve time or gain a criminal record.

If it wasn’t for double standards Canada would have no standards at all.  In the last 2 weeks 2 men were given lighter sentences FOR RAPE AND MANSLAUGHTER because of their indigenous backgrounds.  Why didn’t this also apply to Tamara Lich?  Lich is Metis.  She has just as much native blood as those men yet at no time did anyone mention that Lich should be treated leniently because of Galdue.

Identity politics is the most important factor in Canada right up until the moment you embarrass the government.  If you make that mistake, the color of your skin or your virtue signaling social media posts will not save you.  The government will spare no expense to make an example out of you.

COVID is the largest crime in history.  5 years later not a single participant has been punished.  The only people who have been punished are those who tried to expose the crime.  They will do it again and by punishing Barber and Lich they are laying the groundwork to silence any future opposition.
