Criticism of Joe Biden is presently conflated with support of Donald Trump. This criticism is not in support of Trump’s failed pandemic response. Bleach?! https://t.co/T26lIUwleiDo you too get the sense that Biden is trying to avoid panic by refusing to tell the truth about how damaging COVID infections are on

Saskboy's Abandoned Stuff: Riders Shoot Foot Again
Did the SK Roughriders hire the REAL geniuses who thought the Experience Regina rebrand was smart? They had a meltdown when some meat-heads (pun intended) got upset by A&W sponsoring the team while promoting veggie burgers.The organization doesn't care about player or fan safety, covering up disease outbreaks, and playing

On February 7th Grenada celebrated its 50th year since independence. This was briefly mentioned in my last post but I wanted to return to the topic as there was one other notable event concerning the monarchy that occurred; a group of Grenadians have come together to form a monarchist league. Back in 2016 I noted a lack of
Continue readingThe Maple Monarchists - Blog: The King’s Cancer Announcement and Responses
The announcement that the King had cancer was surprising for a number of reasons. For starters, the fact the Royal Family was even forthcoming about the surgery that resulted in its discovery is a change in policy from how these matters are usually handled. That the cancer diagnosis was then announced even more so. Clearly, the King feels

How many mental health problems seen since the pandemic started are actually blamed on changes in the brains of people infected, and not on some scapegoat like quarantines that kept more people healthy for longer? December 2009 — aftermath of SARS1: pic.twitter.com/bXJYMkoY8G — Dr. Lisa Iannattone (@lisa_iannattone) February 7, 2022

To be brief: The obsession with quantity and volume has to end. More is not always better. Quality matters most. But people in the 21st century are addicted to endless entertainment, distraction, empty and largely useless talk, and endless amounts of “news” and commentary. Unless we step back, pause, reflect,

There’s an effort underway by Conservatives and Fossil Fuel companies to suggest that fossil fuels are “sustainable”. This is an attempt to rebrand fossil fuels as non-harmful, when the reality is they’re causing much of the world’s pollution and breakdown in our climate. There are some ad agencies pledging to

In recent years, many teachers are dealing with 40 kids, in unsafe classrooms, while the Sask Party Education Minister posts about a mining company on the day the strike is announced. Why did he talk about this mining company? He’s boasting about the corruption his government is getting away with,

Note that I no longer have @saskboy on TwitterX, as Sony thought it was important to DMCA takedown a few short clips of their owned songs. People can still find me at my johnkleinregina Twitter handle, or on Mastodon as saskboy@mastodon.cc or Bluesky as Saskboy.

It would appear that the Canadian Heraldic Authority has developed a bit of a backlog due to high demand. While certainly an annoyance for anyone seeking a grant of arms, it is great to see more people taking advantage of one of the more unique gifts the Crown bestows. And, indeed, it is good to

Leader of the Official Opposition shared Fox News BS in Parliament. Premature PP blew it.He got tricked by far-right Fox News propaganda and declared a terrorist incident when a spectacularly bad driver caused an explosion at the US border.#cdnpoli https://t.co/SU7xb3GKe1 — Saskboy from Saskatchewan (@saskboy) November 23, 2023 " the

What’s worse than bombing a hospital? Bombing a refugee camp, turning it into a death camp. The excuse: There was apparently a Hamas commander there. So if the first devastating blast killed him as the IDF claimed, why the followup attacks on refugees and emergency workers there? Hitting a refugee

Terrible. Stiles caved to pressure from an Apartheid government currently engaged in acts of genocide during a war escalated by a terrorist attack by Hamas. Stiles doesn’t want an MPP willing to speak out against a foreign government openly waging an asymmetrical war in response to a terrorist attack. Having

Talked briefly with an NDP MLA after the vote today. He wants to find common ground with his political opposition, but how do you when they're hell bent on taking away kid's rights?#skpoli — Saskboy from Saskatchewan (@saskboy) October 21, 2023 The hateful SaskParty got their way. They’re copying other

He’s lying about the impetus for the hateful Parental Bill of Rights that he’s (illegally) using to cancel Charter Rights of children. Almost unbelievable, now according to the Minister it's starting to sound like all this is sour grapes & petty payback for electing a progressive board in Regina Public?

That’s a fancy word for insincerely idiotic. If Premier Moe listened to CBC radio or had staff who did to explain it to him, he'd not sound like a perplexed GD maroon all the time. That's just a theory, he could be too stupid.https://t.co/3j0o5xNSCU #skpoli — Saskboy from Saskatchewan (@saskboy)

An evergreen headline, because the war basically never ends. If you google for “Israel killed journalist” it doesn’t know if you want contemporary results, or ones for the infamous incident where unpunished Israel snipers killed a journalist last year. The situation isn’t complicated. There’s a repressed population in Gaza, and

OK, the blog title doesn’t exactly work. You come up with a pun for both Speakers of Canada and the US Congress quitting/being tossed in one week. Both the Canadian, and American Speakers of the House should resign at the same time this week. Would be a pleasant moment in
