The snows of Buffalo would never melt

Send Greta back to history class (instead of jetting around) to learn about this old horror chestnut.

Start at 12:00 to see Buffalo buried. They called the army just like Toronto did 22 years later when we were buried.

Ironically Buffalo only gets these massive lake effect megadumps when Lake Erie is NOT frozen over.

Canada’s concentration camps

Most Canadians aren’t aware that we interned the “enemy” during WW2. Why don’t we ever hear of these poor (literally) Italians? Why isn’t this taught in Canadian schools? What about the Japanese? The German immigrants?

Since most were interned in these work camps for years, it makes me wonder if, like other rules of war, there was a worldwide agreement on how to treat interned “aliens”. If there were rules for humane treatment, then why is the world so sure that Germany did not abide by the rules and take the  Russian position that these work camps were turned into gassing centers to exterminate the alien?

After all, if Germans had a worthy propaganda enemy, let alone military enemy, it was the great Russian war machine.  They not only defeated the Germans physically, but also in the historical narrative.


In the early hours of June 10, 1940, RCMP officers began rounding up 44 Italian-Canadian men in Vancouver. Mussolini had joined forces with Nazi Germany; Canada was at war with Italy. These men were declared enemy aliens and sent to an internment camp in Kananaskis, Alta.

More than 600 Italian Canadians were interned across the country, at camps in Petawawa, Ont., and Minto, N.B., as well. The British Columbia men – of which there are no survivors today – were held for up to three years; no charges were ever laid.

Red flags out and anti vaxxer charged

An extreme reaction to a worldwide anti-vax awakening.

Samoa has charged an alleged anti-vaxxer for challenging a government-ordered vaccination drive meant to curb a measles epidemic that has killed dozens. The official charge is “incitement against the government vaccination order,” according to the government of Samoa, stemming from a complaint made by a “concerned member of the public.”

Buckhorn granny

Why people put faith in the actors that run the place is beyond me.

On January 13th 2017, at a town hall that Justin Trudeau held in Peterborough Ontario, I had the opportunity to share my story, and speak of the hardships myself and a great number of Ontarians were going through, brought on by the green energy policies of the Ontario Liberal government of Kathleen Wynne.

Our very own Sasha manufacturing hate

We’ve got our own ADL provocateur right here in Canada.

Audio recordings shared with CBC News reveal political strategist Warren Kinsella told employees working on a campaign against the People’s Party of Canada that leader Maxime Bernier was a “racist” and a “white supremacist” who would be “easy” to expose in the lead-up to the federal election campaign.

Trump can only dream of our concentration of power

As Donald Savoie, the country’s most eminent public administration academic, noted in his recent book Democracy in Canada, political power is no longer located in cabinet or in Parliament, but is now held by the prime minister and his immediate coterie of unelected advisors.

Five years after the start of Flint’s water crisis, FRONTLINE exposes its hidden toll. Our two-year investigation traces how a public health disaster that’s become known for the lead poisoning of thousands of children also spawned one of the largest outbreaks of Legionnaires’ disease in U.S. history.

Reports from the frontlines of the Trump administration’s “Remain in Mexico” asylum policy. We hear from asylum seekers waiting across the border in Mexico, in a makeshift refugee camp, and from the officers who sent them there to wait in the first place.
