Arrived in Miami yesterday. You’d never know Covid was a thing. Wide open. Crowds. Parties. Looking forward to seeing some fireworks by the beach tonite. Life is rather normal here now.

I doubt it is retaliation. It’s likely the same group that started the church fires. It is part of the plan.

This and the story that follows it really demonstrate the strength of diversity. /s

Systemic misogyny??? What a joke! Tell that to any guy who has been to divorce court.

Well the easy answer is if the vaccinated get covid it’s because the vaccines are shit, not because of the unvaccinated.

Canadians continue to be fed lies about the medical system by politicians and the media. The typical story is accept and love Canada’s universal healthcare system or suffer under the US system where even a relatively small ailment can bankrupt a patient.

Of course this is nonsense. The US system offers many options to patients and many American residents are adequately insured. In addition, medicare provides access to treatment for many others. This could be the topic for several volumes but it is enough to say the common perception of the American system held by many Canadians is just woefully incorrect.

More importantly, many other countries manage to provide residents with hybrid systems mixing public and privately funded healthcare. And many of these systems work very well. Limiting a comparison of Canada’s system to that of the US ignores dozens of other countries who successfully provide residents with affordable, quality and timely healthcare. Some countries that many Canadians would disparagingly refer to as third-world can match or exceed canada’s healthcare delivery. (And the irony is that the Canadian system is replete with “third world” workers.) These countries often have modern, fully-equipped doctors offices and hospitals that are state-of-the-art. Wait times are often negligible. Medicine is cheap and available. Doctors are well trained. It is time for Canadians to insist on the authorities addressing the problems with Canada’s system in a way that does not simply raise taxes and hire more bureaucrats. More doctors are needed. More options are needed for the consumer. Alas, this will never be fixed.

Part of the reason is they don’t believe in God.

Lol. Clownworld is right!

I haven’t really followed this case but the reporting suggests it is a 14th amendment case which would put it squarely in one the SCOTUS favorite areas, regardless that it deals with a particular state only. Maybe I’ll look it up later today.

Is this because the SCOTUS ruled on a similar Title IX issue not so long ago?

Can’t argue with this. Though I really like SP.

Trudeau wants to eliminate single use plastics and many municipalities have banned plastic straws. None of this will address the actual problem of plastic pollution.

Unfortunately no one seems to know what they are taking about. Or worse, they do and they purposely hide the truth. Leftism will kill the west.

Diversity is our strength.

Interesting. What about a place like Canada which arguably never made sense in the first place? If the west wanted to separate from the east how is that a retreat?

I’m sceptical. On its face it is curious he polls highest among the non-binary crowd.

That’s funny.

Perhaps Brazil should be split into north and south. The north can have Lula. The south will have Bolsanaro or some other non-socialist. Then the northerners can live in their socialist utopia. I’ll stay in the south.

Well, they’ll probably make up some story about how oil and gas from indigenous lands doesn’t pollute.

Indeed. But not having a flu shot doesn't get you barred from entering countries, restaurants, places of employment etc. Logistically requiring vaccines and keeping them current will be a nightmare.

Now this is what woke should actually be! Seeing thru all the bs and telling it like it is.

It was sarcasm.

Maybe the trans movement in the West would gain more traction if it were led by those ‘girls’.

Indeed. That’s true.

Yes. Among a very narrow group of finance types. That was my point, albeit not made very clearly. Most folks either haven’t heard of him or don’t care about him.
