Hello from Canada.

How about that.
Carney is MAD for getting bypassed! Quebec’s new Premier, PSPP, sent out 59 letters to American Senators and State Governors to promote economic ties between Quebec and their respective States. When Carney found out, he WARNED PSPP that trade was of federal jurisdiction. This is what PSPP had to say about it: PSPP: “Mr. Carney would like us to stay off the ice and never set foot on the rink because he wants the entire rink to himself. But we, in Quebec, have always claimed our rightful place. That’s what I’m doing with these letters, and that’s what previous governments have done. And he’s being a little contradictory because he says that if you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu. So, I don’t know which Mr. Carney to actually believes…” JOURNALIST: So your intention is not to go around him, if that’s what you’re suggesting. PSPP: “What I’m saying is that I will do what I believe is in the best interests of Quebec and Quebecers, because I am the Premier of Quebec, and Mr. Carney is not my boss. He cannot stop me from doing what we have always done. That means having an international presence that allows us to represent our interests. So, expect to see, over the coming months, a Quebec that takes its rightful place on the world stage. I said it during the election campaign.”

Deliberately harming this country.
Mark Carney's plan is to bring in 2.2 million immigrants over the next 3 years AND end homelessness ...while we are 4 million homes short, per his own housing agency.

Good.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE EDGEWOOD, British Columbia - Nov 2, 2026 Universal Ostrich Farms Files Multimillion-Dollar Lawsuit Over Unlawful Raids and Seizures Universal Ostrich Farms Inc. and Landco Ventures Inc. have officially filed a multimillion dollar civil claim in the Supreme Court of British Columbia against the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), the Attorney General of Canada, and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). The lawsuit arises from a series of aggressive and intrusive regulatory actions that culminated in an invasive 52-day occupation of the plaintiffs Edgewood, B.C. farm property, the forced slaughter of their ostrich flock, and the destruction of a commercial enterprise. Key Allegations and Causes of Action: • Unlawful Search and Occupation: On or about September 3, 2025, the CFIA and RCMP obtained search warrants based on an affirmation by Heather June Willis. The defendants entered the property without prior notice, leading to a continuous, months-long 24-hour occupation, during which they erected massive hay-bale "kill pens", disabled surveillance systems, restricted access, and secured airspace restrictions. • Inadequate Statutory Compensation:  Under the Health of Animals Act, the CFIA ordered the slaughter of 314 ostriches (out of 351 birds on site) and denied all compensation. • Animal Cruelty and Missing Birds: The claim highlights inhumane handling during slaughter operations contrary to internal guidelines and common law, alongside numerous birds going missing without proper inventory or chain of custody. • Unlawful Seizure of Ostrich Eggs: In 2025, the CFIA seized an unspecified number of ostrich eggs without lawful authority or compensation. These eggs served as the core input for Universal’s proprietary dietary supplement and pill product, which was poised for a commercial market launch generating projected revenues exceeding $200,000,000. The seizure permanently destroyed this enterprise. • Property Damage and Trespass: The plaintiffs seek damages for trespass, nuisance, intrusion upon seclusion, and permanent real property devaluation. Relief Sought from the Court: • An order requiring the defendants to remove all encroachments and remediate the property. • A complete accounting and return or compensation for all removed documents, materials, birds, and eggs. • General, special, punitive, and exemplary damages for trespass, harassment, intrusion upon seclusion, negligence, and Charter breaches. Official Statement from John Catsimatidis – US November 2 ,2026 "I was disappointed that the CFIA (Canadian Food Inspection Agency) did not have enough respect to allow Secretary Kennedy, Dr. Oz, or the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), one of the world's leading health agencies, to test the ostriches as they had requested.  This would have put everything to rest between the United States and Canada, which may have been a contributing factor to other things. It's a shame the CFIA did not listen to well respected professionals. Instead, the CFIA destroyed the ostriches and their eggs without allowing any testing, and without proof that the birds were infected, which created many doubts amongst the two countries.    I hope we can put it behind us and have our two countries work closer together like we always have." OFFICIAL MEDIA STATEMENT — KAREN ESPERSEN & KATIE PASITNEY | UNIVERSAL OSTRICH FARMS "As we mark one year since the devastating destruction of our 351 ostriches on November 6–7, 2025, we honour their lives, our family's 35-year legacy, and the people around the world who continue to stand with us. This memorial week, we have filed our civil lawsuit seeking justice, accountability, and meaningful policy change. Virus control and animal cruelty should never go hand in hand. Science must come before destruction, and government power must never be above accountability. The outcome at our farm does not erase responsibility. When enforcement shortcuts due process, everyone becomes vulnerable. If we fail to learn from this tragedy, we risk allowing it to happen again. This lawsuit is about more than compensation. It is about protecting rights, demanding transparency, and ensuring no other family or animals endure what we experienced. We cannot bring back our 351 ostriches, but we can fight to ensure their suffering was not in vain. Their voices were silenced, but their legacy will drive change." Karen Espersen & Katie Pasitney Universal Ostrich Farms Together are Stonger. The world is still watching. Miracle Monday [email protected] [email protected]

Awesome.
Red Baron update, part 3. This time Walt spoke for himself. He posted a note on his GoFundMe yesterday. "There's no big announcement," he said. He just wanted folks to know he and his wife have been reading the comments, and some of y'all had them "laughing until we can barely breathe." He thanked the people he works alongside at CJ Schwan's. And when folks asked him for a video, here's what he said: "My wife and I are also trying to keep everyday life steady for our kids. They didn't sign up for an audience, and being their dad comes first." More than 20,000 people have given him over $737,000, and that man's first worry is keeping things normal for his kids. And Luke, the homeless veteran who started it all from his car, is at $49,400 of his $50,000 goal for a place to live and a reliable car. He's less than $600 away. Let's get him over the line. Young men, take note. When the whole country is watching you, go home and be Dad. nitter.gq/KevinRich/status/21165…

Dirty old Mounted Infantry FTW.
On this day in 1917, Australian Light Horsemen charged across four miles of open ground straight into Turkish guns at Beersheba. They had no swords, so they charged with bayonets. It's remembered as the last great successful cavalry charge in history. Courage like that should never be forgotten.

I urge people who don't understand the Provincial role in property taxes to give a read. Because you're out there.

Another Alberta.
🇧🇷 The day after Lula's “win,” a PL state deputy in Santa Catarina promised a plebiscite on whether the South should stay in Brazil. Look at the numbers: – SP, PR, RS and SC are the whitest states in Brazil and produce almost half of Brazil's GDP. – São Paulo gets back about R$10 in federal transfers for every R$100 it pays in federal taxes. Paraná, R$35. – SP and SC have the lowest homicide rates in the country. The national rate is three times higher. – Flávio won 62.6% in the South. Lula won nationally with 51.8%. – They pay the bill and get “outvoted” every four years. Maybe it's time to at least talk about it.

Must've been some left over Alberta mail in ballots.
Round 1: 🏆Bolsonaro: 56.1 million votes Lula: 53.9 million votes Round 2: 🏆Lula: 64.1 million votes (+10.2M) Bolsonaro: 59.8 million votes (+3.7M) To give you an idea of how unlikely this is: all the eliminated candidates from round 1 got 9.33M VOTES COMBINED

They came to us for this. We turned them away. Because Canada is, in fact, retarded.
🚨 BREAKING: AMERICAN OIL JUST HIT JAPAN — AND TOKYO BAY LIT UP! A tanker loaded with ~910,000 barrels of Texas crude just steamed into Tokyo Bay after a 35-day voyage through the Panama Canal. Japanese crews were on the docks. The oil is heading straight to Cosmo Oil’s Chiba refinery. This is the first US shipment Japan locked in as a backup after the Strait of Hormuz effectively closed amid the Iran conflict. Japan normally pulls more than 90% of its oil from the Middle East. They went looking for a different route — and Texas answered. President Trump’s line is simple: America supplies the world. The barrels just proved it. 🇺🇸🇯🇵🔥 One tanker. One canal. One message.

Thankfully the interprovincial trade barriers have been removed so that brewers and distillers can make up sales lost on Tuesday. JK. No such efforts have been made. Elbows up!

Those are rookie numbers. See Canada for details.
🚨 RUBIO JUST SAID THE NUMBER THEY NEVER WANTED ON TV 🚨 Americans work 40 years. They retire. Social Security: $800. $900. A thousand a month. Somebody who got here from Cuba three months ago: $1,500 a month. Marco Rubio said it out loud. “So imagine if you’ve been working here for 40 years and your Social Security check is smaller than the benefits going to a 28-year-old, able-bodied person who just got here. That’s real. That happens. That’s happening every day. That makes no sense.” You paid in. They landed. They beat your check. That’s not compassion. That’s a slap in the face with your own tax dollars.
