Amazon sucks sometimes, but the people who are way worse are the people who sell on it.
So, also, it's good to have a woman in your life if you're a guy like me who's good at building things,
but not really good at thinking about what needs to get built or done with the house or decorated or anything like that.
And so Mrs. Tews wanted to put some covers on the windows in the living room and pick some out.
I'm like, okay, well, I need one of those silicone squeegees.
So I go on Amazon.
You can't buy one of them.
You have to buy two of them.
Okay?
I don't need two of these.
I'm not going to ever, with the exception of right now, for this example, be holding two of
these at the same time.
But if they just sell one, they don't make as much money.
And so they need to sell two to justify their added revenue.
But they're completely, one of these is completely extraneous.
It serves absolutely no purpose.
It's basically the NDP of online.
ordering and I've got it because I had to buy it because I couldn't just buy one.
I want to just send it back and be like, look, just give it to somebody else.
I don't fucking want it.
Fuck off with your stupid consumerism bullshit.
You want to talk about saving the environment?
All this silicone, it could have gone into anything else.
Literally.
Get rid of the extra.
Yeah.
Get rid of the extra.
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
You see it with small things that you want to buy online where they don't let you just
buy one. You have to buy two or five or ten.
Idiocy. Welcome to mashup 107 everyone.
I'm, uh, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, there you go, too. Oh, that's a beauty right there.
There you go. Represent a little two, two, two today.
Glenn Kieber says you like twos of things. Okay, I can appreciate that, but I don't
play. Glenn, well played. Glenn. Well played.
Happy yearboard Friday to all you military folk out there.
especially Jamie, newly retired.
That's right.
And then we hop right to 825 days, too,
is that what we're up to for Anthony Olenek and Christopher Carbert
still stuck behind bars 825 is where they're at.
They get time and a half or double time for remand center.
Somebody comment for, I would love to give you the answer.
It's for sure double, is it not?
Because basically it's kind of at a point where,
where they're going to have so many bank days.
I wonder if it's like, you know,
when you have a job and you work your day off
and then you get to bank a day
and then you'll have a whole bunch of vacation lined up.
Like really, by the time this is all said and done,
they could feasibly get out and just go on a killing spree
and then they could just take it out of time already served.
It's like a freebie.
Well, I guess they got that to look forward to two guys
who looked like they couldn't harm a fly.
they can go on a killing spree.
That's what Tuesday is suggesting,
because it's double jeopardy.
I mean, well, kind of.
Well, it's not double jeopardy.
It's not double jeopardy.
It's not a whole bunch of bank days.
I get what you're saying.
They can go on holiday.
They can go on,
they can go on judiciary holiday.
Well, we sentenced you to five years in prison.
You'd be like, okay,
we'll just take it off my account.
Take it off my tab, basically.
Put it on my tab.
All right, 107.
I want to get into it.
We got lots to talk about this.
week and
well where are we going to start
SaaS Party SACS Speaker
on his way out the door the speaker of legislative
assembly of Saskatchewan is accusing
government MLAs of a harassing
and intimidating him over
his rulings during his four years in the position
quoted what I've had to endure has been
unacceptable Randy Week said on Thursday
as the session was wrapping up
Premier Scott Moe said the speaker's comments
stem from sour grapes after losing
a Saskatchewan party nomination race
one of the quotes that Weeks read out was received from government house leader Jeremy Harrison.
It said that's an absolute bullshit ruling completely wrong.
And the clerk will tell you that.
Donna Harpier, Saskatchewan deputy premier and finance minister was quoted saying.
She's the one who did the $8,000 plane ride from Regina.
Yeah, she was quote of saying, Randy, if you blatantly lie,
Tarnest reputations of elected and unelected individuals in the UN,
but no proof.
We have no avenue to push back.
This assembly has become a joke
and a stage for an opposition puppet show disappointing.
There you go.
There's Saskatchewan politics in a nutshell.
Two's.
Well, the Speaker of the House is basically the ref.
And nobody likes the ref.
Nobody cheers for the ref ever.
As an Oilers fan,
you guys have a very long and storied history
of blaming the ref.
I think you've been doing it for just about 40 years.
now, about 35 anyway.
Oh, it's the ref. Oh, it's the ref. It's the ref.
And the speaker at provincial or federal level is basically the
ref. And if you're not pissing everybody off as the
ref, you're probably doing a bad job.
So you're saying the fact the NDP are sad to see him go
is telling? Well, obviously they're going to say
they're sad to see him go because
without having watched very much question.
period in Saskatchewan, they're going to, they're probably going to think that he's the most
reasonable person they could have asked for in that thing. But the SaaS party isn't looking
for anybody reasonable. They're looking for a cheerleader disguised as a ref, which is what everyone in
Vancouver is accusing the refs of right now.
All right, Darrell, just got here in time to hear who's complaining about, I'm assuming
public sector workers,
public sector workers getting too much time off
and I couldn't agree more.
Well, you know what, Darrell,
you're going to have to sit tight for a little while,
but we are going to talk about that
and the ongoing drama
that is a bunch of whiny, cry, baby, assholes.
Oh, also, wouldn't it be cool
if you had a speaker of the house
who was like an ex-rig hand?
Yes.
Instead of being like, it's totally unacceptable
that they said that what I was doing
was unacceptable. I'd love to just hear
them trying to push back on some guy who says
listen, fuck stick. You need to pull your head
directly out of your fucking ass and get the fuck to work
or you're going to walk home.
Politicians all got to serve like a month as a rig hand.
They just got to be the lowest on the totem pole and just get
man. No, no, it's not that they'd have to be the lowest on total. No, they should be.
Good at it. Do whatever you're good at, but you're going to suck at that.
No, no, no, no. They're going to start at the bottom.
They've got to start at the two.
Well, no, but I mean, you know, if you had an old rig hand, well, yeah, I was going to say, if you had an old rig hand, he could just...
Then he would start at the bottom. He'd be like, yeah, sure, what the hell? I'll go to the bottom. It's not a big deal.
Like, oh, this is... Because, I mean, roughneck is easiest job on the rig.
Yeah. All right. Anyways.
Supreme Travelers, the right, honorable, Richard Wagner, Chief Justice of Canada, was pleased to participate in the J20 summit held in Rio de Janeiro from May 12th, the 14th.
The J20 Summit assembled the heads of supreme and constitutional courts of the G20 members,
the African Union and the European Union.
This was the first time the Chief of Justice Canada attended the J20.
Delegates discussed three topics, promote citizenship and social inclusion,
led by the judiciary, climate litigation, and digital transformation in the use of technology to enhance efficiency.
I was honored to share the Canadian perspective on these legal issues,
which are important to Canada, said Chief Justice Wagner.
this was a unique opportunity to learn from other G20 members, countries,
and promote respect for the rule of law, both at home and abroad.
Okay, well, if you want a digital transformation in the judiciary efficiency,
how about a fucking Skype call?
Zoom.
This is yet another thing that could have easily been a Zoom call.
Or even just have, like, this is just the classic,
oh, you get a cushy appointment with the government,
and now they're just going to pay you to fly all over.
the world. And I know I've said this before, but they always have to pick the sexy locations.
Let's go to R.DJ. Nobody wants to go to Winnipeg. Have one of these in Omaha? No one's going to
fucking show up. If you actually wanted to make it serious, you're there to work, right? Aren't you
there to work? Isn't that the whole point of it? And you look at the money of it. I look at
minds like head of our Supreme Court meeting. And one of the things you're talking about
is climate litigation.
I look at this and I see the countries all getting their heads together and we all know
this isn't going to help us.
That's what I look at.
I'm like,
that's what unnerves me about this is how many people in that meeting said,
you know what?
You guys sound freaking crazy.
Like you want to talk about rights and freedoms and some stuff?
How about we start doing that?
No.
Okay.
Well, hit the buzzer.
Let's move on.
Bad things are going to come from this two's,
not just the spending of money.
All right.
Oilers suck.
They really, really suck.
McDavid sucks.
Drysettle sucks.
The Moose sucks.
Wayne sucks.
Signed an angry Calgary Flames fan.
That's what you are.
I can't believe you actually read that.
I even had a backup banner ready that says,
Sean, you have to read the banners.
Well, here, I don't need to.
This was clever.
This was clever.
This was clever.
So if you're looking on the screen,
you're going to see at the Oilers,
the big screen.
What they did was,
they brought up Vancouver Canucks fan.
and then, you know, they pre-timed a bunch of videos of Canucks fans looking in here.
And then what kind of goofy things that they would be looking at on their phones?
Like, like Candy Crush at the game and where to buy Oilers, jerseys and things of that nature.
Yeah, yeah.
Actually, it was quite well done.
Hats off to them.
You know, I was, when we went with Alex Craneer, I was expecting more of that, like what you saw there.
And I was like, where, you know, because I used to have the kiss.
cam and and I didn't see that and I didn't see a couple of things.
Were you wanting to get on the kiss cam?
No, not at all.
Not at all.
Just they usually, you know, I remember when they were playing the ducks, this is years ago.
And they had, you know, some Looney Tunes videos and stuff of that nature of hunting ducks.
And it was just, it was clever.
You know, they put a lot of things.
Here's a Mike Commodore.
Real quick, 10 years ago, if you had two Canucks fans at an Oilers game, they probably,
like if you had two dudes in Canucks jerseys right next to each other, they probably would have been on the Kiss
camp.
Fair.
And that would have been funny.
It still is, but you can't say that it's funny.
And here's Mike Kamenor saying,
Canucks fan says,
Emmington is a dump.
Euler's fan says,
at least I own my house.
So everybody getting in on it.
Hey, we got,
I'll say this.
Last night's game,
Uber frustrating.
Okay?
We got great goaltending.
Picard played great.
And our power play went 0 for 5.
When was the last time you saw an Oilers Power Play go 0 for 5?
Yeah, I know.
But you were struggling to...
Glenn, Glenn, coming from Vancouver.
Yeah, okay, this is what I say to you, Glenn.
You were struggling to get past our backup as well.
So, you know, it's...
You guys are basically Toronto.
Like, they've got a farm team goalie.
They may as well have the Zamboni driver.
I'll tell you what, I'll give...
Trisha Rue.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Carson, Susie.
Okay.
Those elk sausages were amazing.
Woo-hoo, Vancouver.
and Carson Sousy.
You're saucy about Sousy, aren't you?
Aren't you, Sean?
Okay, all right.
Here's our next headline.
Get to the next headline, you jackass.
Oh, do you know what?
I'm pretty sure that is the next headline.
Can you just...
Yeah, come on.
Come on.
Let's go here.
The NDP are not a serious party.
The NDP leader...
Well, I'm going to show a couple tweets here.
I'll just get it.
I'm just going to bring it up.
Okay, here.
The NDP leadership candidates are an Athabaskan tonight tonight for an event.
An Athabasco wants no part of it.
If you're listening, it's a truck with a sign beside it parked out front saying say no to socialism.
Then we have, we have watch in the back, folks.
Watch in the back.
Here's a singing at a press conference.
Audio doesn't matter.
The audio doesn't matter.
Waka, walka, walka, walka, walka, walka, walka, walka, walka.
That's great.
once again for the listener. He's just, he's saying he's just running his thumbs.
Walking out of the grocery store and they're saying doing a pointless press conference with only one person behind him.
And this dude's walking by in the background. He just does the walker, walker, walker thing with his hand.
Because everybody knows the NDP is not a serious party. That's, that's what we're talking about.
Oh, wait, wait. Nahid Nenshi called conservatives monkeys during the NDP debate.
and Gil McGowan, who, if anybody saw that video I made a couple weeks ago,
ran the most unsurious party I think I've ever seen,
or the unsurious campaign I've ever seen in my life.
If you haven't seen it, check it out.
But he had to drop out because he was $50,000 short of the required entrance fee of $60,000.
These are the people that want to be in charge of the finances of the province, Sean.
Assassin's Creed brings diversity to Japan.
Okay, I'm going to bring up the tweet.
We'll start here.
Okay, we're going to bring up.
So this guy right here, okay?
Twitter former employee of Ubisoft, Mark Kern, says Ubisoft changed Assassin's Creed shadows,
throwing away their original story and instead running with Yaki,
an obscure black retainer of Nubunanaka.
Somebody, Henry, is laughing in his workplace.
right now I know you are because I can't pronounce any of these names.
Anyways, they turned a story about a Japan, a Japanese samurai warrior from like the main character who has this long history story in their in their culture to the black guy.
And although the black guy, like he's not that obscure.
Like I knew who this guy was before I even read this article.
He basically just moved to Japan and he was like the first black guy to ever visit Japan and he stayed there for most of his life, I think, or maybe all of it.
it um after being there but uh not as a samurai and not as an assassin here's a picture of the woman
who's the head writer screams de i uh so i wonder if um if this is being done by that uh sweet baby
or little baby or whatever that um that consulting company for video games that has had this
absolutely horrible track record for every video game that um that consulting company for video games that has had this absolutely
horrible track record for every video game they've put out or that they've worked on
has been a dumpster fire in terms of critical reception and sales.
Also, if you're black, do you really need to dress up like a ninja?
Because, I mean, like, what?
What are you talking about?
Okay, Darrell, like, R.E2 dudes on Kiss Camp.
This is good because, you know, if you're talking about something that happens,
a couple minutes ago. It's good to know exactly what we're talking about. Like,
um, uh, Carla Bellowin said, now you are funny, roughly so twos. And I had no idea where that
fit in. So Darrell, R.E. 2, two dudes on kiss cam. Gay jokes are supposedly only funny if you're
bend over backwards pro gay while making fun of a guy like Mike Pence. At least that's how Hollywood
behave. Yes. Absom freaking lute. And then Carla again, again, too funny. So thank you. I'm not quite
sure where that fit in, hopefully all of it?
I don't know.
It's a 107.
We're off the rails. The budget fiasco
continues. Of course it does.
The Trudeville government is continuing
to face significant backlash
from its decision to hike
the capital gains tax. The decision
has sparked condemnation from the
tech sector, derision from Trudeau's former
finance minister, warnings from the country's doctors
that it could force thousands of them into
early retirement. And just this
week, Trudeau responded to all this
by releasing a three-minute video explaining the tax change as a critical measure to build a fair country.
If you haven't seen the three-minute video, we decided not to show the entire thing here.
It's painful.
It's painful.
You should go watch it.
Don't have anything handy that you could throw at the screen while you're watching it.
Correct.
But you are probably going to yell.
It screams communist or socialism.
He talks about investment bankers, despite the fact that all the highest paid people in the country all work in health care.
And also, one thing that hasn't really been touched on as far as this capital gains thing is that it's effectively backdating your capital gains.
Right.
Like if it said something along the lines of capital gains incurred after June of this year would be at the higher rate, I could.
I would still hate it, but I would hate it slightly less.
The fact is that any capital gains before this are now,
it would be like if Trudeau said,
hey, we changed the tax laws for the year 2017
and everybody else,
everybody in Canada owes us another 500 bucks.
That's what essentially this is.
Yeah, anytime the government tries taking more money to us.
They only want, we're only take, you know in his video?
He's like, we only take, we're only taking 50%.
I just don't have time to government.
I don't.
So here's what happens with capital gains.
Here, let me just break this down for you real quick.
Sure.
You can break it down.
You get some regular.
You're just saying in one breath,
you're like,
66.6%,
two thirds.
As long as it's in 2026, I'm okay with it.
Screw that.
This government is going to get like an extra $18 billion from this capital gains.
Roughly.
Laffir curve, buddy.
It's going to go down.
I understand that,
but that's what they're projecting.
And then they give $18 billion dollars to everyone.
It's like...
It's a tough.
Okay.
Capital gains.
Here's what happens.
I'm putting all the things away so I don't throw them at the screen because I'm already angry.
Regular ass job.
You go punch in your 9 to 5 or your 10 till 10 or whatever the hell it is.
Okay.
You make money.
The government takes half that fucking money.
The half of the money that you get back, you pay out a bunch of bills.
You buy a bunch of groceries.
You handle all that shit.
You're left with a tiny little bit at the end and you invest it in a company.
And you do that a whole bunch.
And eventually that company grows with that money that you have left over after you paid taxes,
after you bought everything you need to survive and pay taxes on that too.
That little bit of after tax money eventually grows to something big.
Okay.
And then when you pull dividends out of it or when you pay yourself a wage out of that company,
the company has to pay taxes on the income it generates.
And then after that money, it pays you a wage.
which you pay half of that on taxes again.
You're making my point for me.
All right?
You're making my point for me.
I'm not good with any increase.
Oh, it's only 50%.
Motherfucker, that tax,
that money has gone through.
And I'm angry at you for saying if they said it was going to be 2026,
and you'd be like, well, I wouldn't be so bad.
No, it's bad.
I said marginally less bad.
I would say, no marginally less bad.
It's fucking garbage.
What I'm saying is that it's even worse because of how,
they're doing it.
Mother isn't
idiot.
I'm going to play that.
Jews
is an idiot.
We're reaching 40
year low.
If Canada's per capita
gross domestic product does not recover in
2024, the decline since mid-2019
may be the longest in the last four
decades. A new study is found.
Despite claims that the contrary,
living standards are declining in Canada,
no shit, said Grady Monroe,
policy analyst at the Fraser Institute.
Released on Thursday, the study found that from
April 2019 to the end of
2023, inflation-adjusted
per-person GDP
decline from 59-905
to 58-1-1-1.
Or by 3%, this decline has
exceeded only by the decline from
1989 to 1992.
That's not 40 years ago.
Are we getting old?
We're getting old.
Jesus Christ.
I looked at that.
And I was going to say, okay, well, you know what happened 40 years ago?
Who was in charge 40 years ago?
What's the threat of commonality?
And I missed that part about it being in the 90s.
Got it.
So now I want to throw something at this screen.
Yes, we're getting old.
We are getting old.
And I want, okay, so that's one thing.
And I want to make sure we toss this into because I, I got yelling at you and I forgot about the second part of the last one.
So I'm going to stick that in 40 year lows.
Another significant increase in tax.
taxes on new business investment throughout the Canadian economy is most concerning of all.
It reads this article.
It is likely the largest tax increase you've never heard of,
and it will lower investment and productivity at a time when we need both.
The effective tax rate placed on new investment in Canada is set to increase from 13.7% to nearly
17%.
Certain types of investment will see even larger increases of the tax on machinery and equipment
investment.
A critical source of labor productivity growth will see an increase 5.7 to 14.2%.
That was a lot.
if you're catching up to me.
Basically, all your capital cost allowances, they change the rules to try and be more competitive
with the United States.
And now they're slowly walking them all back.
Now, this comes at a time when Canada is at a really low point in terms of GDP per person,
productivity per person and also investment.
Nobody wants to invest in Canada right now at all.
It's because we're a dumpster fire.
we're an absolute dumpster fire and so what we should be doing rather than throwing out a whole bunch of just like oh well you know what what if the government just gave you the money you need to to expand your company okay instead of doing stuff like that which we're going to get to how about we make it a situation where companies where people want to invest in companies right this is this is the trans mountain pipeline all over again okay you had a business that
which said, we want to build this.
And the government said, we're going to make it too difficult.
And they said, okay, fine, fuck it.
I guess we're not going to build it.
And then the government said, okay, well, what if we just fronted all the money for it?
And how many times is that going to happen?
And do you know what happens when the government pays for everything?
And they, they're the ones who give all the money to all the companies.
Do you know what kind of government system that is?
It's communism.
Orcas are cranky old men.
Canadian discovery of Orca's superpower
makes them even more scary as yacht attacks rise.
That's the headline, okay?
I don't know how them being able to take long breaths, right?
They get a ton of air off one breath and they can stand or watch.
I don't know what that has to do.
That's the article is that they take...
Your superpower is they take...
Or 1.7 breaths per minute.
Yeah.
That's their superpower?
I'm like, what the heck are we talking about here?
They're sinking boats.
They've sank...
It's sinking in just three years.
They're attacking boats.
That's the story.
That they have some super power.
Which is crazy.
I was expecting them to be able to fly and shoot lasers out of their eyes.
That's what you would expect for superpowers.
Or maybe they've got an adamantium skeleton and out of their fins come a bunch of claws.
But no, there's super power.
They can hold the breath.
You would expect them to be able to hold their breath for a while.
Oh, man.
A cool perspective.
What does one billion?
dollars look like well i tell you here this is what we're going to do um what does one billion
look like it's roughly the total income taxes paid by households in pei in twenty twenty two
imagine everyone in pei woke up and went up went to work for a year and paid their taxes then
hands it over to the arrive can bro so that's one of the truth there's a whole bunch of uh this this
thread was great for breaking down and people yeah um got a billion dollars worth of contracts once
you count all the other stuff that they got from the government
okay it wasn't just the 60 million from the arrive can app they also got quite a lot of other things
and so this this is one of those things i know you've talked about it a little bit and i have thought
about it quite a bit but it's hard to explain like you know how much is a billion dollars how much
how big is this debt how much money are we blowing on these things because it's completely
without perspective when you look at it you're like okay it'd be like an aunt saying that
mountain. Right. Like that's, that's kind of what it is. It's, it's really hard to just put the scale and the
perspective on how much money this government, all of our governments blow on stupid shit.
And, oh, okay, well, here's a good way to put it is everybody's, all the tax money made from all
the people in PEI.
It's a cool perspective.
Word salad politicians. Here.
Here's, okay, so it's two polling Canada word cloud describing one, Pierre Poliath, okay?
So you're seeing confident, hopeful, and then also dishonest, gross, anger, scared, aggressive, okay?
Now look, look at, look at.
Look at Trudeau.
You've got believable, concerned, and for the record, when it talks about concerned,
if you go to the right, go to the right for a sec, concerned isn't that he's concerned.
concerned. It's that concern, scared, confused, unreliable, disbelief, skeptical, distrust,
untrustworthy doubt. Okay, go back, go back again. Move to the side. Yeah. Believable,
concerned, discussed. The biggest two are stupid and anger. You've also got arrogant,
liar, and disappointment. I obviously, they pulled Margaret Trudeau in this.
Okay, so now we're finally getting to a point where Canadian polls are actually a little bit
interesting. Now, Sandy has something cool to say.
On another note, Sean, Danielle
Smith called you the Joe Rogan of
Alberta in an interview with the CTF
this week. She didn't mention
two. I got called Joe Rogan of
Alberta this week. Wow. That's something.
By the premier. Well,
hey, hello, guys.
That's cool. I'm surprised my phone
didn't blow up. I guess, you know, what are you going to
do? And
as far as the last thing,
Daryl says Canadian Taxpayers' Federation
says all our GST collected.
is the same as our debt servicing.
Yes.
Here's the thing is all these progressive people
that want us to spend more money,
they don't think ahead, right?
Like, oh, don't you care about,
don't you care about all our public services?
Don't you care about the free health care?
Don't you care about all this stuff?
First off, no, I don't.
It can all fuck off and go away.
Secondly, when you keep borrowing all this fucking assonine money,
it takes away from your ability to provide those services.
Tim says get rid of it all.
Get rid of it all.
All right.
Now, here we go.
Saving the planet from climate change.
In March, the National Post reported that Canada had spent nearly $1.4 million to attend the 28th United Nations Climate Change Conference that took a place in Dubai last year.
This week, an order, paper, question, response unearthed by none other than the Canadian Taxpayers Federation contains
updated numbers putting the cost to fly
and lodge 182 government-sponsored
delegates closer to
3 million.
Mm-hmm.
Including show the rapper.
This guy's got tight beats.
Well, here, here, here, we'll bring it up.
You've got a bald white guy.
I can see them scrambling in the booth.
In a color shirt.
But like Nura said,
Bonjour, that's the extent of my French.
Okay.
That's good.
I get to speak this anymore.
Okay.
There you go, folks.
You've got a old, bald, white dude in a collared shirt.
Wrapping.
Wrapping off of a laptop.
Okay.
And that guy, his mother, is the 2001 to 2023 forest and fisheries minister.
Correct.
Yeah.
How do you think he got that gig?
Talent.
Obviously, too.
Talent.
They flew him halfway across the world.
Fantastic talent.
Fantastic talent.
He doesn't even have any gold chains.
His pants are at an acceptable level.
This guy,
we're supposed to believe he's a rapper.
The only thing he's been shot with is five
Moderna injections.
Right?
But $3 million.
So we reported before that it was one and a half.
And now it's up to three.
So here's the way it goes.
There's how much they said they spend,
how much the access to information,
says they spend how much you think they spend and how much they actually spend it's right it's
another it's another version of the government doing what it does best spending our money yeah they
flew that motherfucker to buy leanne says hashtag climate scam glens says not again yes absolutely
okay next oh shoot i double clicked here um old people can't use computers
An accidental lottery purchased became a life-changing moment for Cynthia Harris of Kerry when she won $736,000 prize playing a new digital instant game.
Quoted, I thought I was playing on a demo mode. She laughed. Spent $2 on a Monday morning playing Bison Bananza.
Bison Bananza. And so after taxes, she got to keep $500 and change of that.
So I think we should really congratulate the IRS in the United States for winning the Bison Bananza, $200,000.
Good for them.
Good for them.
But also it's just this classic, like, I'm pretty sure this woman can't save a word file as PDF, right?
This is the kind of thing where you just sort of, yeah, this is the classic boomer lack of ability to navigate technology resulted in a $700,000 win.
pay up between her and the i would like to have that happen to me can i can i can i get that i
would take 700 the mashup would take 700 grand oh yes yeah i mean if it happened to me i wouldn't tell
you but yeah that would yeah yeah that would be awesome conservative party with liberal drama
okay this is uh we'll see if we can break this down uh bc conservative leader john rusted at unequivocal
you will be the party leader in the october election his party will run 93 candidates any merger
will be because United Folding and running under Conservative Banner.
Then he had this long tweet talking about, you know, a bomb da-da-da-da-da-da.
You know, he's talking about the inner workings of...
Okay, go back up just a little bit.
Sure.
All right.
So when I joined the Conservative Party of BC, we were the last place party.
Now we're first place in many polls and we're competing for government.
So these were the underdogs, okay?
this is the underdog conservative party in BC
and they came up out of nowhere.
He said,
I tried to come to the table months ago when BC United
and the conservatives were evenly matched in the polls
so we could have the best chance of defeating the NDP.
The answer we got was fuck off.
Right.
So the establishment party who's just riding high on their own success
and says, no, we don't need you.
Sure.
But here,
but now we can get.
So we worked harder to build our party.
But then he delete the tweet.
And then he,
does a slightly different version of that exact same tweet.
And then now you got global news reporting business leaders and political organizers
approach Port Coquitlam Mayor Brad West about leading a potentially merged free enterprise
coalition party. West is considering the option, but it will require both BC United Leader
Kevin Falcon and Conservative Party of BC leader John Rustad to step down from their respective
parties. So me and twos can actually try and get into this, except I don't live in BC.
I'm curious what BC folks think of all this.
And please let us know because I'm like, so are they merging?
Are they not merging?
Like, is this an actual thing?
Like, did he just get told to, you know, you can't swear in a tweet when you're trying
to be the premier?
Like, why?
As somebody who lives in Alberta, I would strongly recommend that they don't merge the parties
and end up with a watered down, not really should have much to show for a party that
very, very many people are excessively.
disappointed with. Daryl says there's nothing to gain from merging the BC United for the
conservatives. And that's the thing, right? So, you know, they, they went to them when they were
on even on an even playing field and said, hey, what if we work together? And they said, no, no, we're,
we're, we're, we're, we are the establishment. And then now that the establishment is tanking and has,
is looking to pick up zero seats in the next election. They're like, hey, well, you know, just, you know,
What if we, what if we, I still want to hear.
This is, this is the Netflix blockbuster thing.
This is Netflix and Blockbuster where Blockbuster had the chance to buy Netflix for like $6 million.
And they said, no thanks.
We're a Blockbuster.
I want to hear from BC.
So if you're living in BC, I want to hear your thoughts.
I get a twos in, and Alberta politics and everything.
Maybe it, maybe it's the exact same thing.
Maybe it is Netflix and Blockbuster.
And that's exactly what's going on.
I would like to hear from BC.
Give me the next headline.
Two's DEI beginning to die.
Barbara Furler Furlow smiles.
A former diversity program manager, Facebook and Nike,
has been sentenced for stealing more than $5 million
based on an elaborate scheme involving fraudulent vendors,
fictitious paperwork, and cash kickbacks.
Yes.
So this was about $4.9 million from Facebook that she defrauded them
and won in change from Nike.
So she had a sweet gig where she probably got paid a stupid amount of money
To do absolutely nothing and have no deliverables because deliverables are racism
And she squandered that opportunity by committing gross fraud
And then went over to another company and did the exact same thing again
And now she's A required to pay it all back
And B going to fucking jail
Going to jail
Covindication. Okay, two here quick.
EcoHealth Alliance has had their federal funds government-wide suspended by HSS for their willful violation of terms of the multi-million dollar National Institute of Health Grant.
That was for researching gain of function research.
At the Wuhan lab.
At the Wuhan lab in China.
Correct.
Where there may or may not have been a lab leak, but there was a fucking lab leak.
Correct.
And the second is the Justice Center.
For constitutional freedoms here in Canada,
is pleased to announce that it continues to see dropped charges
and significantly reduced fines for Canadians
who allegedly violated the Quarantine Act
or who chose not to use the RiveCAN app at Canadian borders.
In this specific article, they were talking about eight Canadians in total
and 13 tickets with a combined amount of $54,000.
They got it down to $1,200.
$1,200 or something.
$1,200, which I would still be like,
I'm still not paying that.
You guys can fuck right off.
But it is just yet another thing.
Another way.
I mean, you know, the, the whole gain of function research that Fauci unequivocally said was not happening.
Oh, it turns out it was.
I wonder if he was lying about anything else.
Honestly, it's an absolute shutout right now.
We basically have, we're basically the Rangers at this point.
Oh, Vance Crow somewhere is giving a fist pump as he drives and listens to this.
Ah, okay, carry on.
Carry on.
Carbon Tax Award.
Oh, man.
Okay, first I'm going to bring up the Stephen Gobol.
Okay?
Here's the Stephen Bugo.
Thank you, Climate Scorecard Canada.
This recognition reflects the teamwork and dedication of everyone involved
in our commitment to reducing Canada's greenhouse gas emissions
and creating a sustainable future.
This award would not be possible without you.
That's right, because they provided you.
There's a government climate leadership award.
And then, and then I want to play this.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I want to give.
Okay,
fine.
Okay.
No,
no, no.
I'll go back.
I'll go back to the climate scorecard.
All right.
This is a government climate leadership award presented from an organization that no one's
ever fucking heard of to a guy who's a complete fucking idiot.
Now this,
this is exactly the kind of stuff that I was talking about when I decided that we should
become award-winning podcaster, Sean.
Okay.
This is that exact.
Well, I agree with that.
I agree with that.
We walked a year ago, and now it's coming back with our federal government.
Here's Trudeau as well.
This is what Pierre Pollyev is talking about when he talks about axing the tax.
He talks about stopping the fight against climate change at a time where the country is burning.
At a time where floods and storms are having an impact on every country.
And at a time when the country is burning.
and we have floods.
Do you know how hard it is to burn something
while simultaneously flooding it, Sean?
Literally in the same sentence,
he said that we're burning and flooding.
Correct.
Can we get to the final part of it?
Sure.
Canadians are struggling with the cost of living.
He wants to take away checks
that put more money in their pockets.
That's what I wanted to get to.
He wants to take away
that we're putting more money in their pockets.
two's this carbon this carbon tax it's putting more money in your pockets if it actually was true
given how shitty the economy's doing right now he would make the carbon tax seven million percent
and everybody would be rich here's the thing i've i've like chris sims breaks it down beautifully
um multiple people have broken it down beautifully about how much of a BS that is what he just
said there over and over again not only the flooding end the fire at the
same time.
There's so much there.
I just,
the liberals are not a serious party,
do's.
No, they aren't.
So Carla says,
when did this department
become environment and climate change?
When Catherine McKenna was running it,
I think in like 2016 or 2017,
they changed the name.
That's how long ago it's been.
So,
sorry for the bad news,
but welcome to the party.
Carbon Tax Award.
Nope, we've already had that.
Trudeau being Trudeau.
do you want this entire video?
Is that what you're...
Is this what we're...
Play like the last seven seconds of it.
Last seven seconds, he says, folks.
All right, here we go.
Against climate change by eliminating the price on pollution
and the checks that land in Canadian's pockets.
But also on the issue of making sure
that we're not further vulnerableizing
our most vulnerable kids.
We like to say people kind,
not necessarily mankind.
It's more inclusive.
There we go.
Exactly.
and the budget will balance itself.
Man!
You are one pathetic loser.
Yeah, so we're just going to keep making up words until something sticks.
Just like happened with zombie fires.
I'm tired of talking about Trudeau.
Man, the guy just drives me absolutely bonkers.
Pass the Dutchie.
This is, well, depends if you grew up in this error or not, I suppose, to the younger folks.
He's from Moose Jaw, right?
Yep.
Yeah, I believe so, yes.
Derring Detition passing away.
Yeah.
Long time, TSN host.
There you go.
Yeah.
From prostate cancer, I believe.
Or, well, it started as prostate cancer.
He's, unless I'm mistaken, I think he's the only person who did two separate cameos on
corner gas.
So, yeah.
John A. McRacist.
Tews, you got to show me what you're doing here because, uh,
okay.
Folks,
he sent me this one and then I put literally in the show notes,
lean on twos because I have no idea what I was staring at or he didn't send me the right
thing.
So let's see what you got going on.
Yes.
Weekly offer Bellevue National Historic Site.
Experience history at Bellevue House National Historic Site.
Engage with many voices reflect on the challenging legacy of Sir John A.
McDonald and join the conversation about Canada's first prime minister.
Take in one of the self-guided opportunities.
What conversation are you going to join if you're on a self-guided tour exactly?
But here's where it gets unpacking McDonald.
McDonald was a lifelong politician who had a great influence in shaping Canada into the country it is today,
which I would argue today was kind of a dick move.
There is a lot to unpack about his comments.
complex legacy.
The tour is for people looking to examine topics like social class structures,
racism,
and sexism in Victorian Canada,
while looking closer at some of McDonald's political decisions.
Bring an open mind and an open heart and join the discussion in this safe space.
60 to 90 minutes.
Here's some hours it's open.
I get the point.
I get the point.
I get the point.
Okay.
I go to a museum.
I want to read little placards about the particular finer points of blacksmithing in that region.
I want to hear about the problems that pioneers had with beaver populations.
I want to see stuff like that.
I want to see some old tools made from stone and wood.
I don't want a bunch of $7 word salad bullshit DIY initiative thing.
talking about a guy who didn't even know any of that stuff existed.
It's completely irrelevant and silly.
You don't want a black samurai in a Japanese Assassin's Creed game?
I mean, this stuff's just silly.
I wonder if we should get into access to information, Sean,
because I would love to know how much money they spent planning it, opening it, staffing it,
and then how much revenue that particular exhibit generated.
because that would be interesting for me anyway.
You're giving a great idea to Blacklocks if they're listening or to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation
because they love to dig into that stuff.
Well, they're the ones who broke the whole thing about the $3 million, by the way.
Yes.
That was Canadian taxpayers and Trudeau.
Sorry, Trudeau.
Blacklock's reporter.
They break pretty much everything in this country.
Trudeau never passed a chance to give away our money.
investment of over 1.7 million for Ital pasta limited to enhance the production of its made in Canada pasta products.
The project will support clean growth outcomes by reducing the company's energy consumption and carbon footprint by 20% through its modernized storage silos and manufacturing processes.
Yes, so $1.7 million is going to generate 10 jobs.
also hey click on that first picture here here's a picture of the people at the unveiling now i don't want to
assume where everybody's from but there aren't a lot of people in this picture that look italian except
for that guy on the right who's totally fucking italian but aside from him you've you've got a lot of
people who look as though them being working at a pasta company might be what you call
cultural appropriation and our government is supporting
cultural appropriation.
Also, it should be worth
mentioning that Stephen Harper
gave them $3.4 million
nine years ago
for the creation of eight jobs.
And it was by Jerry Ritz,
who generally speaking I have a lot of time for,
just not in this case.
Stop calling them loopholes.
A loophole in the house of common spending rules
is allowed MPs traveling to party
conventions to build taxpayers for more than half a
million dollars over the past years, even though House of Commons rules normally prohibit
MPs from charging expenses linked to partisan political activity.
Since May 2020, three MPs have charged to the House of Commons $538,000 in travel accommodations,
meals, and incidental costs associated with attending caucus meetings held in connection
with party conventions.
If a party holds a national caucus meeting at the same time and place as its party convention,
MPs, their employees and designated travelers, which is generally espouses,
can charge travel two nights of accommodation,
meals and incidentals to attend the caucus meeting,
effectively subsidizing their travel to the convention at the same time.
Conservative MPs racked up 79% of these charges spending.
They billed the House of Commons to $426,000 to attend a caucus meeting
associated with Conservative Party policy convention in Quebec City in September 2023-2s.
Why did they go to Quebec City?
They've got everything in Western Canada.
like they've got just about every seat in Western Canada,
you would think that they would hold it someplace central,
like Pinocca.
But no, no, they've got to have it in fucking Quebec.
Why would you not want to support the businesses,
the hotels and the restaurants and stuff in your ridings?
These people are so out of touch.
Also, how fucking crazy is it
that your MP's spouse can fly
and get two nights of,
accommodation and meals and everything like that.
Like anytime I've,
you know,
you look into some international travel with a company you work for, right?
They'll say,
yeah,
you know what if your wife wants to come along with or whatever else,
um,
we'll,
we'll book it so you guys are sitting together and then you got to pay us back the,
the flight cost,
but,
and then she's on her own for meals and stuff,
right?
That's,
that's generally how it goes.
That's pretty damn standard.
What company ever would just be like,
oh yeah,
yeah,
your whole damn family.
Bring your cousins.
It's ridiculous.
But they're the people who make these rules.
They're like, well, yeah, we passed a law that says our wife can travel with us and now
it's illegal to not do this.
So you have to do it.
1.4 billion in grammar lessons.
Here's the headline.
Quebec woman mauled and dog attacks wins 460K civil case against small town and owner.
Against small town and owner.
All right.
Just just read that.
slowly for a second.
For those of you listening, Quebec woman
mauled in dog attack
wins 460K civil case
against small town
and owner.
Somebody owns this small town?
I didn't realize
that somebody owned this small town.
Is this shit's creek?
We pay $1.4 billion
for this hard
cutting journalism
and they can't even
formulate a fucking headline that
makes grammatical sense.
CBC being CBC.
Okay, pro-Palestinian protests continue to grow on campuses across North America
with encampments at 15 Canadian universities set up to date.
But the demonstrations have also attracted scrutiny with some critics,
raising questions about who is supporting these groups and pointing to outsider adjutators
and shadow resources of funding.
For example, speaking in the House of Commons last week, Kevin Young,
independent MP, claimed that the University of Toronto,
encampment was a sham protest and the majority of these protests were demonstrators for
hire or not students.
The article went on to say, that was like there was a proff that went undercover there
that basically verified that and CBC's trying to discredit this whole thing.
Like here's their tweet.
The tactic of blaming, this is at CBC News, the tactic of blaming outside agitators has been
used to discredit protests at least as far back as the Vietnam War and the civil rights
movement says an historian is what it should say, but it says, I historian, because we pay them
$1.4 billion to not understand fucking sentence structure of student activism.
And here is CBC retracts another freedom convoy story.
Do you remember that time, Sean?
Yes.
When the CBC lady said on the air that it was Russian, it was infiltrated by the Russians,
and then they had to walk that back?
Yes.
It's weird that the CBC didn't mention it
Because if they're looking for salient examples of this
They have one literally in their own fucking house
I couldn't agree more to you
I got nothing to say
They literally are the reason
You know in her own country
They were the misinformation
They were the ones
Discrediting Killer High Heels
That was
A color out
Okay it just sounded like you said
They're the ones discrediting killer high heels
Sorry
They were the ones discrediting the most peaceful March grassroots,
and they literally wrote articles on foreign funding, neo-Nazism, all this stuff.
And then I go back up to it.
On March 3rd, GoFundMe, told the Commons Public Safety Committee
that foreigners made up only a small portion of the convoy donations.
Most dollar amounts were small.
Credit card records found no donations by terrorist groups, neo-Nazis, or other criminals.
Quoted, our records show 88% of donated funds originated in Canada.
that was the GoFundMe president who testified
and that's in the
this is the correction they made after they just
slandered the entire thing
and then and then didn't show up to any of it
didn't report on any of it
actually there was one part where they
they showed up and they purposely
there was like just like a dozen people
on the very edge of it and they were filming
that like it was the protest
while I was in Ottawa there was a camera crew
with no signage on any of their stuff
on top of whatever I can't remember what it was called
That's how they were.
When let me get close and their cameras were pointed
the opposite way of the protest.
I was like, that's really strange.
When I was at Tucker Carlson.
I saw first 10.
Tucker Carlson, they were outside reporting.
I don't know.
I never saw it because nobody watches the CBC.
But there was a bunch of unlabeled,
you know, just plain closed cops type things.
But they were supposed to be reporters.
And I didn't recognize any of them because who the fuck watched
CBC.
Lots of, no, no, no, high heels, high heels.
Killer high heels.
Oh, yeah, sorry.
Killer high heels.
A Colorado Marine vet claims to have repeatedly discovered high heels in a secluded area
of western Colorado.
He believes he may have stumbled upon a crime scene linked to a serial killer.
Finding a random shoe out in the middle of nowhere may seem odd, but by the seventh pair
he started to get uneasy.
He continued his search the next day and again, another pair of shoes bringing his total
up to 10 pairs of women's shoes found out in the middle of nowhere next to a hidden pond.
yeah so he's wondering if um so this guy does like epoxy um youtube videos but then he does this video
where he's like check out this weird stuff that's happening this is the crazy stuff that i found um
the high heels the fact that it's only high heels or footwear anyway um makes it seem like it's
probably just a fucking pervert but who knows but he's trying to get more interested in in having
people look into this and he's getting the cold shoulder from the authorities in the states,
I say he should just, just dredge that pond, get some scuba gear, go down there, see what you
find, make a fun video out of it. And then if you find something nefarious, you're the guy who did
it while the actual law enforcement in your country was like, yeah, it's fine. I'm going to have a
donut. Yeah. Lots of trans stuff. Peru has
officially classed by trans people as mentally ill.
You heard that correct, folks.
Transsexualism, dual role transvestism,
whatever that is, gender identity disorder in childhood,
other gender identity disorders,
and fetusistic transvetism.
Oh man.
Are now all recorded as mental illnesses in Peru.
Of course, it's faced a ton of backlash.
Not from here.
And then the other one is breaking in California $360,000
was paid by
California, sorry,
to a former teacher,
Jesse Tapia,
who was fired for refusing
to use preferred pronouns,
and, you know,
there she is.
So there's Peru doing its thing.
There's California having to pay
a former teacher,
a ton of money for,
you know,
getting rid of her because she wouldn't use pronouns.
And here's the thing,
is if they're preferred pronouns,
it,
change the name.
Let's be honest here.
Let's start calling them coerced
pronouns or mandatory pronouns because they're not preferred pronouns.
And actually, you know what?
They're not mandatory either.
They're just coerced pronouns.
They're highly pressured pronouns.
Red Lobster shuts its crap trap.
Crab.
Crab trap.
Crab trap.
Crab trap.
Red Lobster is abruptly closing at least 48 of its restaurants around the country,
according to a leading restaurant liquidator.
Red Lobster is reportedly considering filing for bankruptcy.
protection. The chain has tapped a restructuring expert as a chief executive and possible
indicator of an impending bankruptcy. One of the things that points to was the fact you could get
unlimited shrimp as maybe a poor choice of what they did. Yeah, it was the latest in a bad
string of bad decisions. We talked about it a couple months ago, but here's the followed of it
is now they closed 50 stores or 48 stores of a total of 650, I think.
they have in the States, which is a big number.
Yeah, it's a huge number.
Yeah.
Did, were you a red lobster fan, too?
I was.
I used to really like going to the one in Saskatoon, but I could never afford it.
And it's, it's one of the places I took Mel on, not our first date, but certainly first
month of dating, I want to say.
Yeah.
We went to a red lobster.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I had a, I had a point in time of my life.
It was a red lobster fan, but I mean, I guess I'm not searching it out.
anymore. I still like, you know,
the unlimited clam chowder. Oh,
so good, right? It's,
it's one of those things where I never think of going
there now, but every
time, every time I see or hear red lobst, I'm like,
oh yeah, I really like that place. I should go more often.
There's a new sheriff
in town.
Deanna sheriff is in jail until August 14th.
Do I need to say more?
Well, so this is kind of
a professional protester. She's basically become a meme because she's just this angry, weird-looking
lady who just goes around yelling into a megaphone all the time.
One N, but you'll probably get a lot. She goes around yelling at everybody and has the rainbow
hair and she got in the face of the wrong people, pushed a little bit too far at a protest.
which by the way, she's just going around swearing all the time at these protests with her little kid in tow with her.
Yeah.
And there you go.
There's another one.
Yeah.
So here's, I'm sure you've seen these pictures of her just being an absolute whack job.
So now she's got to spend two and a half or three and a half months in jail, um, waiting on her, uh, because she didn't get bail.
So she's like the only person who can't get bail in Canada aside from Tamer Litch and, and the coots people.
So I don't know.
I've got, I've got a few mixed.
feelings about this. One, our justice system is totally fucked.
She shouldn't be spending months in jail for this. Two, instead of sending her to jail,
we need to send this woman to a psych ward. And three, I have more than a little bit of
shout and fruit for these ridiculous leftists who have been more than happy to see our justice
system and our police and everything like that militantly used against people like us.
And now it's being turned in their direction.
And I just want to laugh and watch it all burn.
I don't know if that makes me a bad person.
It doesn't make it a bad person because, I mean, like literally I watched it.
I'm like, you know, eventually it comes for you.
That's why.
That's exactly it.
So, you know, like, I don't know, I've seen all the videos of her for a long time.
Like, this lady looks totally insane.
She absolutely is.
She should be in a psych ward.
But yeah, it's, it's funny.
They feed this beast thinking that it's going to be great because it's going to eat all their enemies.
But eventually, that beast is just going to, it just keeps getting bigger and stronger.
And eventually it eats you.
Same thing that happened with unions in Canada when you think about it.
A new way to win.
Canada was the third choice for their new plant.
However, after getting a $15 billion investment from the government,
Honda has now selected Port Colburn for the EV battery plant.
I don't know if I have the video.
Yeah, we talked about how Honda was going to do.
Yeah, sure.
Go ahead.
Well, I'm not going to play the audio because I mean.
But here's this lady saying it and then her translator repeating it in Japanese.
But they said that when they were analyzing things,
Canada was third place in terms of where they wanted to do.
build these EV plant, this EV plant, which probably it was a very short list to begin with, right?
I was probably, it was probably the three places they were looking at.
If I had to guess, we're going to be the United States, Mexico and Canada.
And out of those three places, we got third, which in this case means dead fucking last.
And the only thing that put it over the edge was that the liberal said, what if we gave you
$15 billion.
For those of you who are just tuning in now,
that's roughly the equivalent
to as much tax money
as Prince Edward Island makes in 15 years.
An independent Quebec.
Quebec has all it needs to become a green economy leader,
as long as it dissociates itself
from the Canadian oil state.
Block Quebecwa leader,
Dvez Francois-Blachet, told a business audience
in Montreal on Tuesday.
Quebec's renewable energy critical minerals, research centers, and green technologies are all assets to the launch and economy of the future that can serve as a model for other nations, Blanchette said.
Quebec is maybe the best placed state in the world to suggest a different model of reconciling the environment and the economy.
He said before adding that this destiny isn't possible in the oil economy of Canada and its pipe dreams.
And well, do we need to say anything more than this too?
Here's the equalization map for this year and next year.
A whole lot of zero in Western Canada.
And then Quebec getting 13.3 billion in equalization.
They don't want the oil.
They don't want to have an oil-based economy.
Literally their economy is national welfare.
And that money comes from oil.
okay if you guys think that you could separate and still have a nice green economy i say
fucking go for it and save us all of 13 billion dollars a year also furthermore a big part
of their green power comes from the church hill falls in labrador honestly if quebec
fucking separated which i highly encourage them to do i would then highly encourage daniel smith
to pay Labrador more money than they're getting from fucking Quebec for that power generation.
Just be like, oh, well, you guys, you guys don't want to be part of Canada anymore.
We should shut off the power.
And then Newfoundland Labrador would say, well, Lord Tundering Jesus, but they give us a little bit of money here.
What's going on?
And you'd say, okay, it's fine.
It's fine.
We'll cover the bill.
How much money were you going to make from them?
Okay, $17 million.
Here's $18 million.
just don't give them that fucking power because they're a bunch of dicks.
This is how angry I am with Quebec that not only do I want them to separate,
but I also want to see them completely fucked over.
Fucking Quebec.
And only...
Okay, what were you going to say?
I just said, you know, like, tell the Quebec list.
We got anybody out there?
Because, you know, we pushed out of it for a long time.
I'm like, they must hate twos by now.
Maybe not.
I don't know.
I'm just kind of curious.
I'd love to hear in the comments.
I know a couple people listen to this show from fucking Quebec.
I know.
I know.
But they never say anything.
Okay.
Now, where are we next?
Oh, yes.
Here we go.
This one's a fun article.
Afghanistan.
Come for the sandy beaches.
Stay because they killed you.
The headline of this article, could Afghanistan become a tourist destination?
Yeah.
And so it starts looking.
At, well, it says in 2023, there were 7,000 foreign visitors to Afghanistan.
How many of them were military?
It doesn't say.
It doesn't say.
And then it goes on.
Afghanistan's rulers are globally shunned due to terrorist attacks, threats,
and women are still prevented from going to school beyond grade six,
working outside the home and going anywhere without a male guardian.
Yeah.
I feel like you've got a lot of shit to figure out before you start worrying about your tour.
industry.
But I don't think anyone's going.
I love, I love this part though.
So the biggest foreign visitor market is China because of its location and large population,
according to Muhammad Said, the head of tourism directorate in Kabul, which sounds like
a pretty fucking pointless job.
They've told me they don't want to go to Pakistan because it's dangerous and they get attacked.
the Japanese have said this to me also
Said said this is good for us
come visit Afghanistan
it's slightly less dangerous than Pakistan
Hmm
Stop criminals by making it
illegal
The Fort government wants to attach a 10-year driver's license
Suspension to a first conviction of auto theft
That involved violence use of weapon force
Or where the theft was motivated by financial gain
The suspension could extend 15 years
For a second offense and a lifetime driving ban
on a third.
Yeah.
So what they're going to do is,
is if you're committing car theft,
if you're stealing a car,
they're going to make it illegal,
they're going to make it illegal for you
to legally have a car after that.
They're literally taking the exact same approach
they had to gun control,
and they're trying to apply it to cars,
and thinking somehow magically it's going to be something different.
This is,
It's the kind of stupidity you could only ever expect to see from the government.
Recall legislation recalled.
A Calgary attempt to oust Mayor Jody Gondack from office via recall petition earlier this year
garned just over 69,000 signatures, according to city clerk Kate Martin,
who formally declared the petition insufficient at a special council meeting Monday morning.
Quoted the unverified count was 69,000, 344,
petitioners are for 5.39% of the city's population and it's therefore insufficient she told
council and um then they all disqualified every single signature they went on to disqualify
everything and this is what it said 100% of the signatures were invalid because we were missing
a simple sentence directing people to head to the head petitioner with any questions even though
that information was always posted on the c oc website February 6th i asked the city of calgary clerks
if the information in my petition sheet would be sufficient.
They told me it was, but to make sure to contact the municipal affairs minister Rick McGuiver.
Rick McIver did not want to get involved with the process, even just to clarify the legislation.
No help was given to me on this and many other legislative recall issues.
This was always about getting rid of Gondack and her tax hunting administration, but we were also able to expose the absolute nuttiness of the process.
The sample petition given to me February does not include what they said was required.
They gave him a sample.
They said, if you're going to do a recall petition, here's something that it might look
like.
And that didn't even have all the legal requirements for it according to them.
So they basically threw the whole thing out on a technicality, which is the most entrenched
political bullshit move I could possibly imagine.
And I would say that this, as much as it sucks for Landon, I would say that this is
probably the best possible outcome.
Because it's not, oh, well, there weren't enough signatures or, oh, we didn't get enough
interest.
It was, we do whatever the fuck we want.
We don't give a shit what any of you think.
And we've decided that nothing, any of these 70,000 people had to say was worth
a fucking damn.
And if that doesn't shine more light on things, that puts more light on things than
a successful petition ever possibly could have.
Well, I mean, a successful petition would have got her hosted, but hey.
Yeah, sure.
Pride Parade Inclusivity.
Organizers of Regina's Pride Parade have barred legislative members of the governing Saskatchewan
from participating in the event in June.
Queen City Parade said Monday that the ban is a result of the government of Saskatchewan
passing legislation last October that prevents the children under 16 years of age
from changing their names or pronouns at school without parental,
consent. And because of that, they said, you're not allowed here.
Yeah. How dare you get the parents involved? We don't want you in our inclusive parade.
They said, and I quote, we can't have them masquerading as allies. So basically, they don't want people at this gay and trans pride parade who are going to be pretending to be something that they aren't.
Correct. I got nothing to add.
Federal employees crying from home.
We've waited a long time to get to this one.
Federal public servants are mandated,
return to in-person work this winter and early spring
after working remotely for three years.
And some of those with children are working to find spots
for their children in extended day programs.
Sounds like it's a bit painful, too.
Well, no, actually, it sounds like they're lazy.
Believe it or not.
Okay, it also meant we have the rhythm in our life
with rhythm soon to be disrupted.
Lupinski is now one of the many parents in the public service seeking care for the children.
The extended day program at her kids' school remains a possibility if there are spots available.
Lupinski still doesn't know.
She's literally going on the CBC talking about how much this is going to disrupt her life.
And she hasn't even bothered to do the legwork to find out if there's any spots at the after school program at the school that her kids are already in.
and these are the people
that we're going to say
are going to do a good job of handling our tax
fucking records
I
welcome to the club
public sector servant
work
you're now welcome to the world of the rest of us
where we have to go out and find good
things for our children
suck it
and then there was another guy
don't care
I don't know if you watch a video or not
but they had another guy who said
there's just all this added cost now
and I'm not sure where it's going to come from
motherfucker
everything you just said
by the way
let's go back for a second
so there's
comments to be coming in
like crazy
it's awesome
here we go
I want to do
everything I can
to help
fucking Quebec
with their fucking
independence
how the fuck can I help
honestly
I'm glad Tuse is
rubbing off
to a good start
oh boy
we got happy news
Yes, that is what's next.
Happy news here, folks.
Full disclosure.
This is a buddy of mine's involved with this,
and he asked if we could talk about it.
Oh, a little insider trading, buddy.
Yeah, we got a little inside base all going on here.
All right, Institute of Saskatchewan football being introduced.
This is going to be interesting.
I assume, you have the inside track.
When I read it, I just, it feels like kind of like a,
hockey academy except for football. Am I wrong?
I mean,
I'm my understanding that's that's kind of what it is.
It's basically a
it's going to be a high school program
with a heavy reliance on on phys ed that's
going to focus presumably primarily on football.
I don't know, maybe they'll have a few math class
where they, you know, do curvature of a graph in the shape of a football
or something like that.
But yeah, this is this is good.
it, you know, Saskatchewan has been a really good place in terms of developing football
for a long time.
And now they've got something vaguely along the lines of Notre Dame a little bit, maybe not
exactly.
I don't know a lot of the finer points of it, but I think it's really cool that you've got
more of these educational options, you know, where kids can go, rather than a conventional
model.
I was happy to see in their stuff that broke it down because all I wanted to know was if
It says inclusivity,
inclusivity, diversity, equity,
anything of that,
I'm going to punch my screen,
and it didn't.
And I appreciated that.
So I will agree with you on happy news this week.
All right.
So be interested to see what comes to that.
Okay, community notes.
June 22nd, Aaron Goodwin and Garrett Gregory,
that's in Marwain.
You got June 7th,
Il Scarlet in Calgary and other places.

Well, the other places aren't on the seventh, but they're doing a bit of a tour.
So just check out wherever they're at locally.

I feel like there's a couple that I'm missing.
A couple of MLAs from all over the place are going to be there.
They got their ticket, they got booted from Eventbrite.
Yeah.
And one of the NDP Harpies was complaining about this in question period.
So it's a big deal.
It's a big deal.
It's a big deal coming up on June 17th.
Yeah, I was just going to say we got a comment coming in from Zane Southgate.
Happy news, current events.
Jade Jade's ride for mental health.
Jade Dull is riding her bicycle from coast to coast, started in Prince Rupert on 6th May.
currently near Prince George.
That's a lot of princes.
It's kind of like a spinoff.
As a guy who's biked across the country,
my hat's off to her because it's one way to see this country on a pedal bike.
That'll be a lot of fun for.
We started on the other side,
though we started St. John's and rode the mountains last.
I can't imagine riding the mountains first myself.
But hey, it seems.
Well, I mean, you get it out of the way.
I know.
As far as mountains go, it's all downhill from there.
Well, honestly,
it kind of is and you get the prevailing win the wind. The wind comes from the west.
I take the prevailing wind now more than I'd take what size of hell or anything because
you got to fight the wind all day long. It sucks. Either way, mashup 107 in the bucks.
Thanks for joining us this morning. Two's any final thoughts before we get on with our day.
Well, I don't know, Sean. I mean, I think we covered most of everything important.
I don't know if there's anything, you know, we talked about earlier on the show that you want to come back to.
Game six, boys and girls,
Seth.
Oilers.
That'll be all.
That'll be all.
They really suck.
McDavid sucks.
Thanks for joining.
