Offering a fair deal for the Western provinces, the upstart Maverick Party is gaining steam in Alberta, Saskatchewan and parts of British Columbia. Headed by a retired Reform MP named Jay Hill, the party is barely a year old and has already broken into the consciousness of a growing number of Western voters.

You'll notice a lot of people, in a lot of places and powerful positions, saying that we need mandatory vaccines. A new argument popping up in Canada goes as far as possibly revoking public healthcare rights from people who choose not to get vaccinated. This is an ongoing battle many of us have had in protecting our freedoms against angry mobs that are driven by fear and self-righteousness, but it's one we have been losing since the beginning of time.

Despite the best attempts of the media and the progressive establishment that goes with it, Covid appears to be finally finished. The constant fear-mongering over "the variants" doesn’t seem to be working and data out of the U.K. show that Covid is evolving into a common cold. Whether this is due to variants following the historical pattern of slowly becoming more transmissible, but less deadly as time goes by, or if this is the result of a heavily vaccinated population minimizing the impacts, remains to be learned.

In 1969, humans landed the first man on the moon. In 2021, a billionaire shot himself into Earth's lower orbit for eleven minutes in a dildo shaped rocket. Note the difference. Humans haven't successfully sent a human to another rock or planet in more than sixty years, but we're willing to let a bunch of billionaires proclaim that Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic have accomplished something historic.

Movies like The Last Boy Scout are no longer made because their sensibilities are so wildly out-of-step with modern Hollywood. Our cultural zeitgeist has moved (progressed) so far away from movies like The Last Boy Scout, that younger viewers will view this movie as some kind of artifact from a bygone civilization. I watched this movie multiple times back in high school in the early 90's, but the political and cultural change over the past 30 yearsmade revisiting this film a curious (but worthwhile) endeavour.
