Who Do These Tim Horton's Managers Think They Are?

She's had training.

Ironically, I got into a fight with a Tim Horton's manager in the dream I was having just before I woke up this morning. I was the only guy at the cash when I ordered a coffee from the manager. Then he started fucking around, going around talking to people and making weird adjustments around the store. After waiting an hour, I started to complain. So the guy started accusing me of sabotaging construction equipment in his parking lot, which was ridiculous because I never sabotage construction equipment in Tim Horton’s parking lots.

I decided to look for another person to take my order. Ended up walking down some crowded hallway when the manager got in my face and started attacking me. The guy was a useless fighter. Using some of my old judo training, I knocked him over a couple of times, but he kept coming back. Then he tried to kick me, so I used some Jiujitsu on him, grabbing his calf and kicking him in the nuts while he was spreadeagled.

Who do these fucking Tim Horton's managers think they are?

The End.

Make Canada Warmer!

I looked out the window this morning to a depressing sight.

Fucking snow.

It's really starting now.

I have always been puzzled by the way Canadian thought influencers enthusiastically jumped on the "Keep Canada Cold" bandwagon in response to the #ClimateScam.

First and foremost in my mind was, why the hell should Canadians be concerned about supposed global warming? We must suffer this miserable, messy, expensive, gloomy, dark, and depressing period for about six months of every year.

I don't know about you, but I HATE winter. If it were possible, I would go into hibernation every December, until at least April. If I could afford it, I would spend every Canadian winter in Florida.

There is a very good reason why MOST of the Canadian population lives as far south as possible.

Let's just say, for the sake of argument, that Southern Ontario was more like Florida. Would you complain? I sure as shit wouldn't. Those who enjoy winter sports can move to Ellesmere Island, along with the contrarian whack-jobs who pretend they enjoy the winter freeze, just because most people don't.

Every day I see those obnoxious federal Liberals bloviating on Twitter about their heroic efforts to grease as many palms as possible with the next generation's dollars, ostensibly in pursuit of this insane "Keep Canada Cold" agenda.

The millions of Canadians that have been sucked in by this con is simply mind-boggling. Such mass stupidity is not natural. It has to be programmed. That's where government controlled public schools, along with a thoroughly corrupt Junk News media, leftist and "woke" political activists, Marxist university professors, and a very large portion of an apathetic population come in. The common objective of all of these pushers and followers is the destruction of consumer-driven (I.E. democratic,) free market capitalism, in favour of authoritarian collectivist economic, social, and speech control, led by brazen charlatans like Justin Trudeau.


Project Veritas exposes the corruption at CNN.


As the corrupt Canadian Junk News industry pivots from its wall-to-wall COVID-19 panic porn into climate porn, few Canadians even perceive the psychological manipulation. This year, much of the hocus-pocus focus has been on the costs of climate change, with the implication that, if we revert to a pre-industrial way of life with bicycles and windmills, even though it's really hard to ride bicycles in snow, and wind turbines don't work when covered in ice, we will be altruistically saving Bangladesh from any more floods. And it will be even worse than that, because burning wood for warmth will be banned, and there just ain't a lot of bugs to eat in Canada during the winter. Wouldn't it be easier if Bangladesh just built some dikes, even though they might have to wait awhile for the wind and solar-powered earth movers and bulldozers to hit the market?

I made two Google searches just now.

For the first, I used these keywords, "estimated cost of climate change in Canada."

There were plenty of results.

But when I Googled. "What is the cost of winter on the Canadian economy?" I got nothing. Zip. Zip. Zilch. Either no one is asking that question, or the corrupt Google search engine is not enthusiastic about providing those answers.

So, I had to broaden my search, starting with the question of how many Canadian climate refugees there are every winter. It is reported to be 300,000 to 376,000.

My next question is, how much does this cost the Canadian economy?

According to this site, Canadian climate refugees spend about $3,500 per month. It is unclear whether that figure in $CDN or $US. I will assume it's in $CDN. Using the lower estimate of 300,000 Canadian climate refugees, that works out to a cost of about $1 billion per year due to Canada's ongoing climate sameness crisis. That's just a drop in the bucket compared to the estimated $25 billion climate change supposedly costs Canada.

But there are other costs resulting from winter.

  • snow plowing
  • snow shovelling
  • shovels
  • ice salt
  • vehicle boosts
  • rust damage from ice and salt
  • injuries from slips and falls on icy surfaces
  • vehicular accidents caused by climate-related road conditions
  • money wasted on warm winter clothing and footwear
  • the growing cost of home and commercial heating
  • heart attacks caused by snow shovelling
  • people falling through thin ice
  • people freezing to death
  • depression and loneliness resulting from climate-related isolation
  • drownings and floods during the spring thaw
  • snowballs being thrown at cars
  • waiting for buses in the freezing cold
  • unused unused <sic> bicycle lanes
  • people getting splashed with slush
  • wet and ruined footwear
  • people walking on the roads because of unshovelled snow
  • climbing over snowbanks and getting your pants and feet all soaked
  • increased misery for homeless people

Canadian winters are dangerous and expensive. If one word could sum up Canadian winters, it would be "yuk!"

Liberal voters bite their fingernails, wave their hands, and pull their hair out worrying about some imagined future climate crisis when this country experiences a climate crisis every single year.

Think about it. Even if you're naive enough to believe that a bunch of political wind-bags have the magical ability to thermostatically control the climate, why in the fuck would you vote for them when they promise to keep Canada cold?

We need a new political party in this country. One that buys into the CO2 hoax, but instead of subsidizing wind and solar, offer incentives to all Canadians to purchase and operate their own CO2 generators. And farmers will be told to feed beans, Chinese food, lots of salad with Catalina dressing, and chicken wings to their cows. (It will "create jobs" and all that BS.)

I know what I am going to do. On the assumption that these charlatans are actually right about CO2 warming the planet, I am going to buy a commercial CO2 generator and run it in my backyard, 24/7. Maybe I'll buy two. And then, perhaps, I will be Prime Minister one day.

Get yours here.

Taxi Drivers are Mining for Coal

Taxi drivers are now mining coal! I wonder if Uber will come up with an app for that?

"Some coal storage facilities have had to shop from supermarkets."

People are resorting to burning garbage.

And, of course, by-law enforcement is now involved,

"The city, meanwhile, is sending patrols to check on the places they know are popular with miners." (will Uber miners be exempt?)

"We are also spending more money on the sand we use to fill in the holes."

If this were just another Monty Python skit, it would be piss-pants funny, but it's the reality of what happens when governments create crises to "prevent" crises. JUST like they did with COVID.

It's all just another example of the unintended consequences of expecting politicians to come up with "solutions."

And now this:

Pay With Cash

Correction:

December 20, 2022

In the following essay, I reported that I had not received a refund from GiveSendGo. This was incorrect. Upon check through my credit card statements, I was able to confirn that I had received a refund on March 26, 2022. My apologies to GiveSendGo for this disinformation.

At first, I embedded this video at the bottom of this rant. Then I decided, it's so good that it belongs at the top. Brand used to irritate me, but lately, he has been bang on.

From before.

I noticed that the Russell Brand clip was, inexplicably, spliced out of the Tucker stream, so I googled it and found his rant from three weeks ago. This might be the one.

Maybe it was because I was in the cab business that I could see what was coming so easily. It started around 25 years ago when the credit card companies prevented me from buying good-tasting American cigarettes from Switzerland. I had read about how the U.S. government was strong-arming credit card companies to stop processing internet tobacco sales. When it happened to me, I knew why.

It started with tobacco, but how much of a fool do you have to be to have thought it would end there? Now it's plastic bags, meat, and road space. Oh! And I almost forgot about the lockdowns, masks, and vaccinations. 

All were incremental steps toward transferring, even the most basic human choices, to government officials.

They even prescribed the number of guests you could have over for Christmas. Do you remember that? Or has it gone down the same memory hole that has been replaced by, "No one ever said that the vaccines would stop infections and prevent transmission!" Like pre-2020 vaccines did.

Then there was the push toward computerizing taxicab dispatch, along with GPS tracking. Followed by the mandatory cameras. I felt each turn of the screw.

It's like assembling a jig-saw puzzle. A very easy one. The final picture is crystal clear.  Add a dash of authoritarian collectivism, our dominant political fashion, and you don't even have to do any work. The pieces all fall nicely into place.

Then there was the problem I had getting a sticker when I bought an ex taxi Crown Vic, because my insurance policy was not showing up on the IBC COMPUTER! Even though I had bona fide coverage AND a fucking pink slip.

The IBC link is gone? I wonder what that is about? Try this one.

I argued with the girl behind the counter and even got angry with her, until she pointed out that she had no control of the situation. Until the policy showed up in the database, the printer would NOT spit out the permit.

At which point, I envisioned myself arguing with the order taker at a McDonald's restaurant, trying to explain to me that there was no way she could process my order for a quarter pounder with cheese combo, because I had already exceeded my monthly beef quota. "It's to save the planet," she would cheerfully remind me.

I'm hearing that a lot lately when I ask for a bag in the grocery checkout line.

Finally, there was the freezing of the GoFundMe account for the trucker convoy. I had not made a donation, but when the devious fuckers froze the trucker's account, I searched for another platform and found GiveSendGo. I sent them $10 U.S.

That too was frozen, and as of today, it still hasn't been refunded.

And, yes, that sleazy c*nt of a liberal leftist "thought influencer," Dean Blundell, published the hacked list of all the GiveSendGo donors on his website.

His sleazy act, which he deleted a short while later, did not displease me. It was a gift. It was a public demonstration of just how low these leftists will go to crush those who oppose them. And since the Dean Blundells of the world are now deeply entrenched in all of the power centers, do you still think Biden won the 2020 election?

Keep in mind the fact that most voters don't know what the fuck they are doing, and that the political machinery know this, and uses it, to frame its message.

So, yes, Central Bank Digital Currencies represent a grave threat to that remnant of the population who still value their privacy, and their freedom.

...

Other stuff.

Yes.

One thing I am also finding strange, is how Statistics Canada seems to be dragging their feet now in presenting the charts for all-cause mortality in Canada. Their charts have not been updated since July, 2022. I don't recall them being so slow in the past. I have been particiularly interested in the mortality stats, since the COVID response, for people in the 0 to 44 year age bracket.

Child labour banned, except when mandated by government

Government is evil.

October 5, 2009

It doesn't matter anymore where you choose to look. As government grows, its true nature becomes easier and easier to see.

In addition to their warm embrace of formerly illegal numbers rackets, our governments are engaged in wholesale theft, deceit, extortion, blackmail, kidnapping, intimidation, expropriation, property destruction and murder.

Whenever a private citizen engages in any of the above, we call him a criminal.

But if any of the above are committed by legislators, cops, judges, jailers, by-law inspectors, children's aid workers, revenue agents, bomber pilots or, now, high school principals, we don't bat an eye.

Why is that, I wonder?

More to the point, how does a nation, or an entire civilization, of, for the most part, decent and peaceful people, who would not think of engaging in theft, intimidation or murder, come to accept the day-to-day application of these methods by the institution they have been led to believe works for them?

If you are not Michael Moore, let me ask you this:

Between the evil institution of capitalism (exchange) and the touchy, feely, warm and cuddly institution of government (coercion,) if you had to err on the side of caution, who in your mind would most closely be associated with the following traits:

"Theft, deceit, extortion, blackmail, kidnapping, intimidation, expropriation, property destruction and murder."

Walmart? Canadian Tire? Exxon? Or government?

Well, the first question I would ask is who, generally, has the guns?

One gets in your face with advertising and shelves full of products you can choose, or choose not, to buy, at prices which seem, perhaps surprisingly, to fluctuate. The other gets in your face, and whether you like it or not, you pay, or else. And prices that never fluctuate. They just keep going up.

Now. To another aspect of the symptoms of government cancer.

The Ontario Ministry of Education and Training is now blackmailing our children into involuntary servitude.

Community Involvement Activities As part of the diploma requirements, students must complete a minimum of 40 hours of community involvement activities. These activities may be completed at any time during their years in the secondary school program.

Ministry of Education and Training

The state, through its education monopoly, is mandating compassion. "Be kind, or else we'll try to ruin your life!" That makes me feel all touchy and feely. Does it do the same for you?

I found this on the Midland, Ontario, Secondary School site.

Italics mine.

Community Involvement—Diploma Requirements

Student's must complete 40 hours of community involvement. This requirement is to encourage students to develop awareness and understanding of civic responsibility and the role they can play in their communities. Wear a mask. Get vaccinated. Trust the "science."

Well, who could object to that? What could possibly be wrong with the government education monopoly taking an interest in the kid's civic responsibilities and the role they can play? Especially when it comes to brainwashing them into believing that a government monopoly in education is a good thing.

Students, in collaboration with their parent(s)/guardian(s), (the parents are to be co-opted into this scheme!, are responsible for selecting volunteer activities from the "Eligible Activity List".

Eligible Activity List? That means anything that reflects the official government line? Could there be a political or organized labour stink to "eligible activities? See below.

Students, their parent(s)/guardian(s) have the responsibility for completing the "Completion of Community Involvement Activities" form and handing these in to the school as required. They are also to ensure that the corresponding, total number of hours is recorded correctly on the student’s report card.

Yeah, just another mutation of the income tax form. Students and their parents have the responsibility blah, blah, and the total numbers *must* be recorded correctly. Or what? Or else. More government stink.

Community Involvement Eligible Activity List

This should be good.

Eligible activities must be without pay, outside class time, and not part of a course requirement, such as job shadowing, co-op or work experience. However, an acceptable activity that takes place during a student’s lunch break or spare periods is acceptable.

"Acceptable activity," reminds me of Ayn Rand, "Acceptable to whom and for what?" Without pay? Is work done without pay "acceptable," to the slave?

The SCDSB in consultation with School Councils, the Special Education Advisory Committee and Ontario School Board’s Insurance Exchange (OSBIE) approve the activities listed below:

Whew! All of those councils, committees and exchanges. Isn't it comforting to know we have all of these strangers, who most of us have never even heard of, that have so much influence on whether our children shall be *permitted* to graduate?

And now, drumroll to the list!

Assistance to seniors;

I like this one. Seniors—I am almost (now) one myself. Seniors are a class of citizen in our welfare state system who has been granted a form of political status. They are people who have been lucky enough to live long enough to become seniors. Those of us who are lesser citizens must now bow down to them and hope we shall be blessed with a lifelong enough to allow us to indulge in a similar state of mandated privileges.

Personally, if and when I reach that magic age, I won't be the one asking the hapless and starving cab driver for my legally mandated "seniors discount."

Well, maybe some day we will become so advanced that we will be able to identify those among us who won't live long enough to be seniors and they will be able to benefit from some mandatory "service," or handout.

Personally, if my kids have to submit to this insulting mandate in order to graduate I will do everything I can to find an "acceptable," activity which subtly, or not, drives home to them the fact that they have a right to be here, and the right to learn, regardless of whether their curiosity leads them in a direction "acceptable," to some anonymous group of committees.

I know! For the seniors part of the program, I will ask my kids to escort senior smokers outside of their government regulated nursing homes and to make sure they don't slip on ice and die of exposure to the second hand elements of nature.

Environmental projects;

Environmental projects? Would an essay on the Global Warming scam qualify as an "Acceptable Activity?"

Working with charitable and service organizations;

Like ACORN? Antifa? BLM? They could learn to smash windows, burn cars, and beat the shit out of people.

Community sports and recreation activities;

Is this the way out for them? Just join a basketball team or something?

Specific school-related activities;

None were specified. Though, after viewing some recent You-Tube videos, perhaps this activities might include writing a prayer to Obama.

Community activities;

This one seems pretty open. If my kids attend a Tea Party demonstration, would that count?

Working in health facilities.

My choice here would be to get them into some kind of program where they help people to start smoking. After all, it is well known that smokers, despite their cost to society, tend to die off faster and save tons of money in the form of old age pensions and chronic care.

Yep, it sure makes me feel good that I am being progressively relieved of the burden of making decisions.
