The CBC's Idea of "Fun" Is a Joyless, Overwrought Book Competition

I've been home sick all week with the mother-of-all-colds and have been listening off and on to Canada Reads. It's an annual event that aims to identify the one book that every Canadian should read because it will change your life and/or the planet in a positive and progressive way.

Here, for instance, is a description of one of the books in the running this year, The Marrow Thieves:

Humanity has nearly destroyed its world through global warming, but now an even greater evil lurks. The Indigenous people of North America are being hunted and harvested for their bone marrow, which carries the key to recovering something the rest of the population has lost: the ability to dream.

In this dark world, Frenchie and his companions struggle to survive as they make their way up north to the old lands. For now, survival means staying hidden. But what they don't know is that one of them holds the secret to defeating the marrow thieves.

Climate change; natives being victimized by eee-ville non-indigenes; suffering; death: I can't think of another novel that is more up the Ceeb's sanctimonious alley.

Except, perhaps, for this one:

Sarat Chestnut, born in Louisiana, is only six when the Second American Civil War breaks out in 2074. But even she knows that oil is outlawed, that Louisiana is half underwater, that unmanned drones fill the sky.

And when her father is killed and her family is forced into Camp Patience for displaced persons, she quickly begins to be shaped by her particular time and place until, finally, through the influence of a mysterious functionary, she is turned into a deadly instrument of war.

Telling her story is her nephew, Benjamin Chestnut, born during war as one of the Miraculous Generation and now an old man confronting the dark secret of his past — his family's role in the conflict and, in particular, that of his aunt, a woman who saved his life while destroying untold others.

Nope. Not going to read that one, either, even if it "wins."

Justin Trudeau Boasts About His "Transparency"

Yeah, he's so transparent that he bathes in Windex.

Why, he's a regular Mr. Cellophane.

Bad Judgment In the UK

In sentencing a "youth" who tried--and, luckily, failed--to blow up infidels on the London subway during the height of rush hour, a UK judge made this daft and fundamentally unsound pronouncement:

Finally, Ahmed Hassan, let me say this to you. You will have plenty of time to study the Qur'an in prison in the years to come. You should understand that the Qur'an is a book of peace; Islam is a religion of peace. The Qur'an and Islam forbid anything extreme, including extremism in religion. Islam forbids breaking the "law of the land" where one is living or is a guest. Islam forbids terrorism (hiraba). The Qur'an and the Sunna provide that the crime of perpetrating terror to "cause corruption in the land" is one of the most severe crimes in Islam. So it is in the law of the United Kingdom. You have, therefore, received the most severe of sentences under the law of this land. You have violated the Qur'an and Islam by your actions, as well as the law of all civilized people. It is to be hoped that you will come to realise this one day. Please go with the officers.

Douglas Murray has nothing but derision for these words. He writes:

First, what business is it of a judge to make such a statement? Why should Mr Justice Haddon-Cave think that being a judge in a British court also permits him to expound on Islamic theology? And what if he is wrong in his theological pronouncements? What if it is not the case that Islam "forbids anything extreme"? What if a lot of British subjects who are not Muslims discover that this judge is telling an untruth? What if he is wrong, and that the cure for a jihadist like Ahmed Hassan is not in fact confinement with the Quran and Sunna?

Mr Justice Haddon-Cave seems almost to suggest that "violating" the law of the Quran and Islam is an offense in itself -- one worth noting alongside the crime of putting a bomb on a packed commuter train. That his pronouncement was superfluous is obvious. That it is incorrect is at least equally so. But worst is that it will further erode the belief of the citizenry in their lawmakers.

Murray gets it. Mr Justice Haddon-Cave...not so much. In fact, not at all.

Exemplifiying the Wimpitude of His Kind, Justin Trudeau "Exonerates" Indigenous Chiefs Implicated in 150 Year Old Murders

Justin genuflects to the gods of political correctness--again:

OTTAWA - Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is set to exonerate six First Nations chiefs who were executed by British Columbia's colonial government more than 150 years ago.

Trudeau's itinerary says he will "deliver a statement of exoneration" for the Tsilhqot'in chiefs in the House of Commons at 3 p.m.

The warriors were hanged following a deadly confrontation with white road builders during the so-called "Chilcotin War of 1864."

After the workers were killed, five chiefs arrived at what they believed would be peace talks with government representatives. Instead, they were arrested, tried and hanged, and a sixth chief was executed the following year in New Westminster.

The Tsilhqot'in have long disputed the government's authority to execute the six chiefs as criminals, describing the confrontation as an altercation between warring nations...

Very interesting. Over on Wikipedia, however, it doesn't sound like "an altercation" as much as it does a horrific mass murder of whites by natives:

n 1862, Alfred Waddington began lobbying the press and his political allies for support to a wagon road from Bute Inlet to Fort Alexandria where it would connect to the Cariboo Road and continue on to the goldfields at Barkerville.[3] He received approval for the construction early in 1863. According to Waddington, it would reduce land travel from 359 miles to 185 miles and the total days consumed in packing freight from 37 days to 22 compared to the Yale-Fraser Canyon route known as the Cariboo Road favoured by Governor Douglas. The Bute Inlet Wagon Road was to follow the Homathko River valley from the mouth of Bute Inlet and then swing northeast across the Chilcotin Plateau to join the Bentinck Arm Trail at Puntzi Lake and the mouth of the Quesnel River. It was also one of the routes considered and advocated by Waddington for the transcontinental railway eventually constructed to what became Vancouver instead.[4]:192

Construction had been underway for two years when, on April 29, 1864 a ferryman, Timothy Smith, stationed 30 miles up the river was killed after refusing a demand from Klattasine, Tellot and other natives for food. Smith was shot and his body thrown into the river. The food stores and supplies were looted. A half ton of provisions were taken.[5] The following day the natives attacked the workers' camp at daylight. Three men, Peterson Dane, Edwin Moseley and a man named Buckley, though injured, escaped and fled down the river. The remaining crew were killed and their bodies thrown into the river.[6]

Four miles further up the trail, the band came upon the foreman, William Brewster, and three of his men blazing trail. All were killed. Brewster's body was mutilated and left. The others' bodies were thrown into the river. The band also killed William Manning, a settler at Puntzi Lake.[4]:192

A pack train led by Alexander McDonald, though warned, continued into the area and three of the drivers were killed in the ensuing ambush.[4]:192 In all, nineteen men were killd.

Who is Justin Trudeau to "exonerate" those responsible for such brutal acts in a bid to revise history to conform to current notions of "truth and reconciliation" (both of which are quite impossible when one is committed to telling lies about the past)?

Romantic Primitivism Rears Its Head at the UN as Indigenous Canadian Teen Calls for Water to Be Given "Human Rights"

The 13-year-old wants us to accord "human rights" to water. As in H2O. Which is an inanimate substance and not, I repeat, not a person:

It's time to "warrior up," stop polluting the planet and give water the same rights and protections as human beings. That's the message Autumn Peltier, a 13-year-old Canadian, delivered personally to the United Nations General Assembly on Thursday.

"Many people don't think water is alive or has a spirit," she told the diplomats gathered in New York City in her speech on World Water Day. "My people believe this to be true.

"Our water deserves to be treated as human with human rights. We need to acknowledge our waters with personhood so we can protect our waters," Peltier said, her five-foot frame standing on a stool behind the podium so she could reach the microphone.

The teenager from Manitoulin Island on Georgian Bay was invited as the "representative of civil society," joining UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres and other international dignitaries for the launch the UN's International Decade for Action on Water for Sustainable Development.

The campaign by member states aims to better manage and preserve world water resources. 

By all means, let's be good stewards of the planet and pollute it as little as is humanly possible. At the same time, though, let's not succumb to sheer silliness merely because of the age and provenance of the individual who uttered it.

Major New Study Reveals That Jew-Hate Is Becoming Mainstream In the U.K.

Consider me not at all gobsmacked by the report's findings. After all, with the BBC, other highly influential media outlets and elites in academia and the political sphere thundering on almost daily about Israel's "moral crimes" (including the worst one of all, the "crime" of its existence on land claimed in perpetuity by the Palestinians, the group which claims Most Favoured Victim status in the U.K. and the EU), and with a large and growing population of Muslim voters to pander to--one would be shocked if Judenhass/Zionhass wasn't all the rage there.

Robin Williams' "Adorable" Sexual Harrassment Antics

No, he didn't drug anyone. Nor, as far as I know, did he ever pull a Weinstein and share his, um, seed, with a potted plant. That said, his M.O. doesn't really sound all that "adorable," even if "it was the Seventies":

In a new book about the actor’s life titled Robin, the former actress, 66, said Williams was “such a nice person” who had a “gigantic heart,” according to excerpts obtained by The Daily Mail.

“I really loved Robin and Robin really loved me. We just clicked,” she reportedly said in the upcoming biography.

However, Dawber also opened up about Williams’ alleged sexual behavior on the show, which helped skyrocket the actor to fame. “I had the grossest things done to me by him. And I never took offense,” she reportedly said. “I mean I was flashed, humped, bumped, grabbed. I think he probably did it to a lot of people … but it was so much fun.”

Dawber added, “Somehow he had that magic. If you put it on paper you would be appalled. But somehow he had this guileless little thing that he would do – those sparkly eyes. He’d look at you, really playful, like a puppy, all of a sudden. And then he’d grab your t*** and then run away. And somehow he could get away with it. It was the Seventies, after all.”

Mork & Mindy producer Howard Storm, who was also interviewed for the [new biographical] book, reportedly said, “He’d be doing a paragraph and in the middle of it he would just turn and grab her a** . Or grab a br***t. And we’d start again.”

Storm allegedly added, “It was just Robin being Robin, and he thought it would be funny. He could get away with murder.”

Garry Marshall, another producer, reportedly said that it was Williams’ mission to embarrass Dawber on set: “He would take all his clothes off, he would be standing there totally naked and she was trying to act. His aim in life was to make Pam Dawber blush.”

"It was the Seventies, after all": somehow, I don't think Harvey's attorneys will be able to make use of that one (Weinstein, after all, being nowhere near as "guileless" and "magical"--and dead--as Mork).

Justin Trudeau's "Service Canada" Banishes Male 'n' Female

As Justin and the other Trudeaupians see it, gender is merely an artificial social construct that must--must!--be killed off in the name of all that is good and fair and just. Service Canada, apparently, is in the process of doing just that.

What, you may well ask, is Service Canada? According to Wikipedia, it's

part of a Government of Canada-wide service transformation initiative aimed at responding to Canadians' expressed desire for better, more responsive, less cluttered service from Canadian governments. The initiative seeks to do this by improving the design and delivery of government programs and services to Canadians.

Up to now, that delivery included addressing Canadians by such titles as Mr., Mrs. or Ms. But that, I'm sure you will be not at all relieved to know, has now changed:

Service Canada employees who interact with the public are being asked to stay away from terms like Mr., Mrs., father and mother, and to use gender-neutral terms in their place, CBC News has learned.

According to documents obtained by Radio Canada, the French-language arm of CBC, front-line staff must now "use gender-neutral language or gender-inclusive language."

"This avoids portraying a perceived bias toward a particular sex or gender," says a copy of speaking notes prepared for managers and team leaders.

"It is important that Service Canada, as an organization, reflects Canada's diverse population and ensures that the views and interests of Canadians are taken into account when we develop policies, programs, services and initiatives," says the directive.

The new guidelines also rule out using terms such as mother and father because they are "gender specific" and instead says the neutral term of "parent" should be used instead.

The same goes for honorifics such as Mr., Mrs., and Ms. and in both languages. Instead, employees are being directed to address customers by their full names or ask them what they want to be called...

Me? I'd like to be called Xena, Warrior Princess.

Is that okay with you, Service Canada?

A Song For Louis the Lunatic (and His Lefty Fans)

What accounts for the way some Democrats--including Saint Barack--have no problem hanging out with a man whose racist views are entirely in synch with Adolf Hitler's? Mark Steyn takes a crack at explaining the bizarre behavior (of "Minister" Farrakhan and those inclined to schmooze with him) here. (Er, since he's the leader of an outré Islamic sect, shouldn't he be called "imam"?)

Steyn also mentions that, way back when, the NOI nut job was a regular Harry Belafonte.

Well, maybe not a full-fledged Belafonte, but definitely a Belafonte wannabe whose showbiz name, hilariously, was "The Charmer."

That said, he was never a threat to the King of Calypso, whose mellowest hit has now been 'mouched:

Down the way you can hear him bray
That "the Joooos" are evil and they're doin' harm.
Some Democrats who are lousy rats
They have convinced themselves the man is full of charm.

And they're glad to stay near Louis. Hey,

He is a leader with great caché.

He's a con man; he's got a terrible plan.

There is no worse a Jew-detester than Farrakhan.

Down the market you can hear
Louis cry out, lie and acting like a douche.
Although he claim to be like MLK
He is spiteful, dangerous and very louche.

But they're glad to stay near Louis. Hey,
He is a leader with great caché.
He's a con man; he's got a terrible plan.
There is no worse a Jew-detester than Farrakhan.

Why Would Two RCMP Officers Collapse During a Trudeau Speech?

Was it due to the stress of having to stand at attention for so long? Perhaps. I contend, however, that it was an involuntary physical reaction to having to listen to our drama queen of a prime minister and his snoozeroo utterances for more than five minutes.

The NYT Poses an Utterly Disingenuous Question

There are only three reasons why Farrakhan would be back in the news, ones that should be obvious to anyone familiar with the man and his M.O.:

1. He no longer has a pulse
2. He's launched another "Million Man March"
3. He's a-spewin' about and a-hatin' on "the Jooooos" again.

It's Offical. This Year's Oscars Set To Be Yet Another Sanctimony-Riddled, Finger-Waggling Snoozeroo

Remember back when the Oscars were fun?

No? Neither do I, frankly. But there was a time, not all that long ago, when the show wasn't as insufferably preachy and self-righteous as it is today. When, say, host Billy Crystal briefly impersonated Hannibal Lecter, or Rob Lowe opened the show with a helium-voiced Snow White, neither of whom were much good at the singing and dancing they were called on to perform. Here, alas, is what's in store tonight:

In a nod to #MeToo and the Time's Up movement, Laura Dern and Ashley Judd will also be front and centre as presenters. Both have spoken out as survivors of sexual harassment and assault: Judd was one of the first to speak out publicly about allegations against Weinstein.

Time's Up organizers also say they are working with the Academy to find space to mark the movement at the Oscars.

And as Marvel Studios' Black Panther continues to shatter records, the king of Wakanda himself (actor Chadwick Boseman) will be presenting, as will Oscar-winning co-star Lupita Nyong'o.

While this year's presenter list emphasizes attempts to diversify by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the returning Oscars ringmaster is Jimmy Kimmel, who presided over the best-picture mix-up that saw Moonlight eventually win last year.

Sounds pretty grim, no? And about as much fun as a plate of cold mashed potatoes.

Zafar B.'s Khomeinist E-Zine Home to Some of the Zaniest, Most Insidious Jew-Hate Around

In days of yore, this writer might have accused "the Jews" of poisoning wells and infusing their holiday baked goods with the blood of juicy young gentiles. Today, in support of what is arguably Western civilization's greatest enemy du jour, the man conjures up the following evil aspersions:

Just as Edward Bernays’ 1929 “torches of freedom” march was followed by many years and decades of cigarette ads aimed at women, so too has 9/11 been followed by a massively-funded public relations follow-up campaign aimed at maintaining and exacerbating the Islamophobia injected into the West’s collective unconscious on September 11, 2001. The ongoing “Operation Islamophobia” PR campaign has included many false flag terror attacks attributed to Muslims, as well as more than 600 FBI terror plots foisted on gullible, vulnerable Muslims by manipulative Bureau informants. It has also been fed by a vast multi-billion-dollar “Islamophobia Industry” pumping out anti-Muslim messages funded largely by Zionist money.

How can Muslims neutralize this hate campaign? Arguing rationally against Islamophobia only works on rational Islamophobes — a rare breed, if not a contradiction in terms. Instead of spinning our wheels trying to talk sense into the likes of Trump, we need to recognize that Islamophobia is primarily an emotional disease of the unconscious mind. Then we need to treat that disease at its root, by exposing the 9/11 false-flag operation to the maximum possible extent, focusing primarily on who did it (the neocon Zionists) and why (to incite long-term, geopolitically-weaponized Islamophobia).

The genuine psychopathology--as always--is corrosive, crackpot Judenhass, of which this article is a perfect example.
