The prime minister has put on blackface so many times. He literally put a banana in his pants.
The Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) is calling foreign interference activities by the Chinese government the "greatest strategic threat to national security."
In a statement provided in French to CBC/Radio-Canada on Friday, a CSIS spokesperson said that this threat comes not from the "Chinese population" but from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), which is deploying a strategy aimed at "geopolitical gains" on economic, technological, political and military fronts.
"To do so, it uses all the state powers at its disposal to carry out activities that directly threaten the national security and sovereignty of the country," said the unnamed spokesperson.

Every Canadian Prime Minister has been compromised at one point or another by those Chinese agents of influence. Every government, every office was compromised. And when we brought the warning, nobody listened.

RepBalderson: Are you aware of other social media platforms engaging in censorship of non illegal content on their sites at the direction of the government agencies?
ShellenbergerMD: Yeah, absolutely. There was both the Election Integrity Project & something called the Virality Project in 2021, which was funded by the federal government which actually organized for those social media platforms to censor content, and also included accurate content that they thought was contributing to narratives that they disfavored.
A platitude is even worse than a clichรฉ. Itโs a sanctimonious clichรฉ, a statement that is not only old and overused but often moralistic and imperious. Platitudes have an aphoristic quality, they seem like timeless moral lessons. They therefore shape our view of the world, and can lull us into accepting things that are actually false and foolish.
Life is short,
and art long,
opportunity fleeting,
experimentations perilous,
and judgment difficult.
After Nazi Germany's attack on the Soviet Union he was imprisoned in a German work camp in Tarnopol from which he made several attempts to escape. He received a death sentence for his second attempt to escape, but managed to successfully escape in 1943. In his autobiography he described his escape as having taken place after he killed his guard with a shovel when taken to dig his own grave. This became the subject of one of his most famous poems "He who had dug his own grave":
He who had dug his own grave
looks attentively
at the gravedigger's work,
but not pedantically:
for this one
digs a grave
not for himself.

Residents were encouraged to book an at-home appointment with the city's Department of Health to qualify for a raffle to win the cash prize
Lightfoot and the program were immediately mocked online over its bizarre presentation and random prize amount
The program mirrors the one in New York City that launched in the summer where those who got vaccinated won $100

Is it progress if a cannibal uses a fork?
No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible.
The window to the world can be covered by a newspaper.
Don't trust the heart, it wants your blood.
In a war of ideas it is people who get killed.
You can close your eyes to reality but not to memories.
