It’s New Server Week!
While the state-owned CBC division of the Liberal/NDP party is laying people off this week, we at PTBC are upgrading our server this week. (By the way, that's some damn fine firing-timing, there, CBC....
We have fun on X, some of us even when we know nothing.
I've been suffering from the flu for a week or more. Woe is me. I mean it's not so bad that I can't have a cocktail — it's Friday, so duh — but my...
David Eby, socialist premier of BC for some reason, has thoughts on state housing
David Eby, the increasingly socialist NDP premier of BC, increasingly sounds more like a revolutionary leftist than a government leader who appreciates the free market: The CTVNews post on X made me gulp:
Eby says...
Thanks “investment” guru firm Trudeau, Singh, Freeland and Guilbeault, but we got this
(Link to the post on X)
Their boast was about their latest "investment" — this one in yet another battery plant. Not $13 BILLION this time, because it's only in stupid BC, not Ontario where...
CBCers go all-in on stupid and defensive for their Trudeau
(Link to this post on X)
What's funny about most of the several angry replies to my rather innocuous and objectively spot-on comment was that my comment wasn't a dialectical argument about what PM Sox...
The oozing brain poo is actually a call for help.
This follows up on my previous article in which at least three people oozed brain poo in reply to my reply on X. I am seeking to help them. They need my help and...
Progressive have committed a mindocide
Yikes. The stupidity. The sheer madness. And yes, I do think there is a certain madness out there. I mean a real psychological phenomenon. It is mostly among the young, and it almost exclusively...
Shocking lack of self-awareness at the Liberal Party.
Sometimes their ignorance or stupidity — or is it audacity? — shocks even me.
Maybe, to be fair and compassionate, they're not stupid — they may simply be suffering from a severe case of psychological...
“Gun Control” is a BS political device used by the progressive left.
It's a random totally U.S. story, once again spotted and then hastily posted — by the Canadian news media — as if there's nothing else in the world — or in, you know, Canada...
Progressives, you’re not all like this. Right?
They're all varying degrees of progressives, to be sure. Liberal-left, all the way left to Marxist. These are not conservatives, folks.
But it's hard not to see some of these groups of people as a...
Make babies?
There is a hell of a lot of talk, lately, about immigration — mostly on account of the fact that excess levels of immigration are upsetting the balance of our society economically, socially, and...
Trudeau virtually acknowledges he has no principles other than holding onto power
Winning the award for crass, transparent desperation in their quest to hold onto power over us, is the Trudeau/Singh Liberal/NDP Party. Collectively known as The Federal Progressives.
I posted a reply to this on X/Twitter...
The now-cringeworthy, ever-more embarrassing state of “progressive” in Canada and the West
The NDP convention last weekend was one of the most ridiculous displays I've ever seen in political Canada. Conventions can bring out the weirdos in any party, but this one hit new depths. (Here's...
CTV is utterly obsessed with “far-right”
"Far-right, far right, far right..." CTV News has OCD about the "far-right."
I came across it again today when they tweeted it today for the, I don't know, 10th time(?), recently.
Seems every person or party...
