It seems the assault on Christmas never ends. Just saying the word can send some non-religious politically correct weaklings into a safe space. Now, we have a situation in Nebraska where a school principal has sent out a memo to her staff telling them using candy canes to decorate their classrooms are inappropriate. The reason is that the can is shaped like the letter J, which stands for Jesus and that the red is symbolic of Jesus’ blood and the white symbolizes his resurrection. These people who get offended at everything know more than Christians themselves. Other things banned at the school (no reason given) included Santa, reindeer, and Christmas trees. Again, society is too weak to do anything about it but the principal should be fired on the spot. Don’t be a pushover this Christmas. Make sure you say the word every chance you get. Don’t be a participant on this nonsense by substituting the word Holidays. That’s silly.
I don’t even want to get into the ‘Baby It’s Cold Outside’ controversy where radio stations have pulled the song because it promotes rape. Again, just another example of how stupid society has become. I don’t actually blame the troublemakers and attention seekers who campaign for this type of over-reaction. I blame all of us who know exactly how dumb this is and yet we continue to allow these social justice warriors to get their way. Does anyone even listen to the radio anymore anyway? Go ahead and ban the song. It’s like if a tree falls in the forest. To me, if you are still listening to local radio for the music then you really need to come out from mom’s basement and attend a technology class and learn how to program your own radio station with your phone or computer or discover the thousands of internet radio stations that exist which will play just about anything. There really is something for everyone, even me, and I have one of the most unusual tastes in music you will find. Not many would enjoy what I play in the vehicle.
I was shown a joke by a good friend today which wondered if saying ‘Ho, Ho, Ho’ could be offensive to those who work in the sex trade. While I don’t think we can worry about that, it wouldn’t shock me to hear of someone claim the person reciting that enthusiasm is calling the recipient a bad name. So, look for that phrase to be banned eventually too.
Seamus O’Regan is the federal government’s Veteran Affairs Minister. He caused a stir on Monday when he gave a speech to a roomful of soldiers and civil servants and told them that leaving his job in journalism was ‘ a shock to his system’ and that gave him insight into how members of the Canadian military feel as they take off their uniforms for the last time. Just the latest example of how out of touch and detached these self-entitled, spoiled over-grown children are that run our country. I can tell you that I also have left the media career so I can relate to O’Regan, but I can’t even begin to relate to those who have served our country in the military. The two aren’t even remotely close to being related. If anything, leaving journalism should have provided O’Regan with a sense of renewed enthusiasm for life. I can recall feeling ten years younger than I really was when I entered a new career. All O’Regan is trying to do is justify a position he doesn’t deserve and is unqualified for. But, hey, he’s no different than just about every single cabinet minister in Trudeau’s game that he calls running a country.
The Prime Minister held a First Ministers meeting in Quebec last week and his agenda didn’t include anything with regards to Alberta and the oil crisis. When pressed on it by Rachel Notley, Scott Moe, and Doug Ford; Trudeau insisted he’s in full support of the citizens of Alberta; but the proof is overwhelming that he’s lying. For starters, we have Trudeau, himself, telling a town hall that he wants to phase out the oil sands but can’t do it overnight. But, perhaps the most damning evidence comes from Trudeau’s puppet master, Gerald Butts, who is the Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister. Butts is actually the one running the country but he’s not likeable enough to ever get elected so he’s found a pawn in Trudeau and attached himself to our dimwitted leader and pushing his radical left wing agenda that way. There’s a YouTube clip with Butts saying, “We don’t think there should be a carbon based energy industry by the middle of the century. We think the oil sands have been expanded too rapidly without a serious plan for environmental remediation.
The real plan isn’t an alternative route (Northern Gateway). The real plan is an alternative economy.” The evidence is right in front of our faces. The plan is to destroy western Canada. It’s already on the ropes and if these guys win again in October 2019, we will be destroyed. Mark my words.
Nice person mentions this week: Garrett Karcha, Brett Sorgen, Russell Cone, Steve Sutton, Dennis Scott, and Karen Cottenie.
