“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” ~~ John G. Diefenbaker

FELDSTED -- Canada stands out as a nation willing to limit economic growth and reduce her standard of living as a disciple of IPCC propaganda

From left to right, Justin Trudeau, Elizabeth May, Jagmeet Singh

The other day I was reading an article which held that since the federal NDP and Green parties endorsed action to combat climate change, and Justin Trudeau’s Liberals were committed to combating climate change, most electors had climate change as their primary issue in the past election.

I will give the authors an “A” for twisting reality to suit an agenda. The NDP and Greens can make any policy declaration they like. They will not govern and will never be held accountable for their positions.

The position of the Liberal party is neither rational nor reasonable. Man-made carbon emissions (anthropogenic carbon) are a worldwide problem requiring worldwide solutions. No nation can deal with anthropogenic carbon emissions on its own.

The spectre raised by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) requires that we measure the overall response of nations in combating emissions. We already know that most nations are not on track to meet Paris Accord reduction targets.

The Paris Accord was a failure before the ink was dry on the document.


The pretense that nations with moderate or low emissions can turn the tide of carbon emissions is silly. The major reason why many nations will not commit to the Paris agreement reductions is that they are not willing to wreck their economies to meet reduction targets.

Canada stands out as a nation willing to limit economic growth and reduce her standard of living as a disciple of IPCC propaganda. That virtue signalling that is harmful to the nation and her people.

Our governments refuse to admit that worldwide efforts to combat climate change are not working. Instead of turning our attention to how we can best deal with the effects of climate change, and minimize damage to our infrastructure and society, we are squandering our resources and future on efforts to limit world carbon emissions we cannot and will not achieve.

The cries that “Canada must do her part” are arrogant nonsense.

Canada, like other nations, must do what is best for Canada. Blind adherence to the questionable forecasts of the IPCC does not warrant undermining our economic engines or reducing our standard of living.

We don’t have a climate emergency ... we have a five-alarm fire raging in parliament.

Common sense, accountability, logic, reason and responsibility are under siege by irresponsible and reckless ideologues. That is our real emergency.

PEATS: I am writing with a critical concern regarding the imminent closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic, a vital healthcare facility in our community

The following is a copy of a letter sent to me, which was sent to BC’s Minister of Health Adrian Dix. It is with regards to the impending closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic in Dawson Creek.   Dear Minister,   I am writing to you today with a critical concern regarding the imminent closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic, a vital healthcare facility in our community. The closure, scheduled for the summer of 2024, is a result of the utterly burdensome terms and conditions imposed by the bureaucratic Northern Health. As a result, Dawson Creek stands to lose four doctors who have made this city their home, and who wish to continue serving the people of our community.   The impending closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic is a significant blow to our city. Not only will it result in the loss of highly qualified and dedicated healthcare professionals, but it will also deprive thousands of Dawson Creek residents of access to their primary physicians. At a time when healthcare se

Selina Robinson: "You broke my heart . . ." (The Real Story)

The mildly Zionist, innocuously leftish and now ousted advanced education minister’s letter to her New Democratic Party caucus colleagues, explaining why she has resigned the caucus to sit as an independent. The letter is an historic document, an artifact of the disgraceful cultural moment we’re living through. It’s important. It’s also a scorcher. It’s gathering a heck of a lot of attention . I’m printing it in full here. I’ve been insisting that what happened to Robinson is a much bigger deal and a completely different story than the one we’d all been led to believe. The necessary background: My piece in the National Post: The despicable untruths behind Selina Robinson's political lynching . More importantly , a Real Story investigation: The Problem With The Selina Robinson Story. . . It wasn't true. What follows is the story of what really happened. Let’s just get into it. Apart from punctuation and spelling I replicate the letter faithfully, with some further comm

Poll finds ignorance regarding BC NDP decision to co-manage public lands with indigenous (Western Standard)

. . . . The poll allowed British Columbians to give weight to key priorities. More than half say that the respect for reconciliation and the leadership shown by the government in including indigenous partners in decisions are both important to them. That said, concerns about further complicating resource development (which already necessitates the consideration of indigenous peoples' interests in relevant regions) and economic risks, are equally weighted by the population. ARI also found there is a sense the consultation timeline has been rushed. One-quarter (26%) say the current timeline offered by the government is acceptable. But more disagree, including half (48%) who want to see more consultation, extending deliberations into the fall or later this year, and one-quarter (27%) who want to kill the proposed changes entirely . . . .
