Of course, they knew

Regular readers of my blog will recognize this as a repeating theme.  There is no possible way our governments thought they were doing the right thing with COVID mitigation measures. My conclusion was always based on very simple logic.  Basic science tells you that all the regulations forced upon us would have little to no […]

Alberta has no choice

Canada just elected another Prime Minister who is antagonistic to the oil industry.  This is a problem for the province of Alberta where Oil and gas is the major industry.  As a result of the election Albertans have been registering on a site that is trying to gauge support for a referendum on separation.  In […]

Iron Sharpens Iron

That is a saying from martial arts.  To hone your skills, you must practice and compete with other skillful opponents.  The same can be said for intellectual endeavors.  To refine your thinking, you must have skillful opponents.  This is something I confess I don’t do enough.  My circle of friends thinks quite like me, so […]

Even when politicians tell the truth they are still lying

If I […]

Leave Ukraine to the adults

Donald Trump promised to end the Ukraine war in 1 day.  That has not happened.  The reason it has not happened is that Trump needs to change perceptions.  The western world still clings to the belief that a peace deal will include a complete withdrawal of Russian Troops.  This will never happen because Putin has […]

Canada’s enemies are already inside the gates

I was born in Canada over 60 years ago.  Being born in Canada 60 years ago meant you were lucky.  The country was still full of promise.  Sadly Canada has never lived up to that promise.  We should be so much more than we are. Canada should be an economic powerhouse. With the second-largest land […]

DOGE exposes how to manufacture a scientific consensus

The list of ridiculous government spending DOGE is finding grows by the day.  I found these wasteful projects to be particularly interesting. Over $1 million for ‘ SILOS: Structural Inequities across Layers Of Social-Context as Drivers of HIV and Substance Use’ Over $1 million for ‘Measures of structural stigmatization and discrimination for HIV research with […]
