He is afraid to. He is afraid it will implicate the whole Epstein network. Not only his playdoh file friends, but also his banker friends who turned a blind eye for greed. He cannot fathom is how great the world would truly be with those responsible in prison and honest people in charge.

Actually, Ontario already has two time zones. The border between Eastern and Central is a bit west of Thunder Bay. That being said, all these ad hoc DST switches will be confusing until all provinces make a consistent switch one way or another. And all the automated changes catch up.

Sentence of the Day:

Military officers destitute of military knowledge; naval officers with no idea of a ship; civil officers without a notion of affairs; brazen ecclesiastics, of the worst world worldly, with sensual eyes, loose tongues, and looser lives; all totally unfit for their several callings, all lying horribly in pretending to belong to them, but all nearly or remotely of the order of Monseigneur, and therefore foisted on all public employments from which anything was to be got; these were to be told off by the score and the score.

Sentence of the Day:

A solemn consideration, when I enter a great city by night, that every one of those darkly clustered houses encloses its own secret; that every room in every one of them encloses its own secret; that every beating heart in the hundreds of thousands of breasts there is, in some of its imaginings, a secret to the heart nearest it!

Sentence of the Day: (**I’m beginning with this first sentence because it is so oft quoted but rarely in its entirety, and it seems to me that this as a whole reads more accurately, “rar like the present period.”) A Tale of Two Cities; Charles Dickens. #Booksky

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way—in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

Mark Carney says he’s protecting Canadian workers. It’s Orwellian doublespeak

Subject to ministerial review, the right to strike is likely to be much weakened by Bill C-39.

The reason Carney’s is getting away with an agenda Canadians would never tolerated at any other time is because he seems like an angel and genius next to Trump. And he knows it. But he’s not. And if we don’t call him out on it now, he will leave us with few rights and an uninhabitable climate.

I can’t believe Carney resurrected this undemocratic criminal sellout. I guess Canadians’ memories are as short Americans’. At least Carney is finally showing us who he really is: just another Harper we will soon regret … again.
