Oh Canadian Teeth!

Canada is known for a lot of things, ranging from hockey and moose to maple syrup and embarrassing dictators running the country. One thing that many uneducated Americans think Canada is good at is health care. I’ve had various Canadian friends throughout the years tell me the health care is terrible, and this past week showed me this hasn’t changed one bit.

I spent this week in Canada teaching a class. The first thing I noticed was the poor dental care. Well over half the people I interacted with had terrible teeth. Like, we’re talking “someone punched you in the mouth” levels of bad here. When I asked some of my students, all of them confirmed that Canada’s dental care is abysmal. Only 55% of Canadians have private dental insurance, and only 4% can get government insurance. Over one third of Canadians haven’t seen a dentist in the last 12 months. And its not just the poor folks either. The people I ran into working at nice hotels and nice restaurants had terrible teeth, folks that likely have at least some money, but can’t afford the care. The government can’t even afford to pay dental hygienists a good salary, despite rolling out plan after plan to do so.

It didn’t end at teeth though. Despite spending nearly a third of all government money on health care, Canada has terrible emergency room wait times. We’re talking 22 hours on average to be placed in a hospital…in Ontario. Not a small place, mind you. One of my students confirmed that most emergency rooms turn you away to stay at home unless something is absolutely life threatening. The regular care is not any better either. One student told me that his wife went in to get a referral for a dermatologist. 8 years later…yes, that is not a typo…they got a phone call for the referral, which they had forgotten about by that point.

8 years for a referral…I never thought someone could make Tricare look bad, but Canada, you take the crown!

Under the Fedora: Who Needs Norms Edition, No Trials, No Attacks, No Choices in Michigan, In London No Jews, and Dostoevsky Democrats

For the first time in history an impeachment sent to the Senate didn’t produce a trail because the Democrats didn’t feel like having one.

It’s amazing how easy it is to ignore the Constitution when you have a party whose primary voter base either doesn’t know or doesn’t care what it actually says.

Sooner or later the tables will be turned and suddenly the press and the dems will decry the fact that we’re playing by their rules

Apparently Iran’s plan on dealing with the Israeli air strikes is to simultaneously pretend they didn’t happen and claim they destroyed everything Israel sent, but apparently the Jewish state made their point.

Such a pretense excuses Iran from an escalation that would lead to disaster as Israel demonstrated both Iran’s lack of effective defense and their lack of allies willing to throw down for them, well except for Maxine Waters who apparently denies Iran even attacked Israel.

I somehow don’t think she’s enough to sustain them.

RFK’s access to the ballot in Michigan leads folks to believe that he gives the “death to the Jews” left an alternate to Biden who they hate and Trump who they hate more.

I disagree, RFK is solidly behind Israel and hasn’t been shy about saying so. If those votes are going anywhere else they’re going to Cornell West.

What I’m really interested in seeing is if the Islamic community is content to let the folk in Lansing steal their votes if the numbers don’t look good.

If you want to note confirmation that England has been conquered by the Islamists this video is all you need to see:

How DARE that Englishman be openly Jewish in the capital of Great Britain!

I’m glad the Few did not live to see England conquered.

Finally Robert Stacy McCain notes that being a fugitive on the lam doesn’t take away the right for your vote to be counted in the Pennsylvania Legislature. If you’re a Democrat that is.

A Pennsylvania Democrat providing a critical vote for his party in the state House is on the lam after allegedly violating a protective order related to abuse, authorities told The Post.
Philadelphia police issued a warrant for state Rep. Kevin Boyle on Tuesday after the 44-year-old Democrat, who has struggled with mental health issues but is still on the ballot for a primary election next week, broke the Protection From Abuse Order, a department spokeswoman confirmed Wednesday afternoon.
Democrats control the Pennsylvania House of Representatives by a razor-thin 102-101 majority, meaning his votes in absentia allow the party to pass legislation for the time being.
“We tried to address this situation this morning by asking that Mr. Boyle be placed on leave,” Republican caucus leader Rep. Bryan Cutler (Lancaster) said. “The Democrats are insisting that not only he’s not on leave, but he is in fact eligible to vote.”
“You’ve got an individual who has an arrest warrant out who is either a fugitive from justice and waiting to be processed, or they are in communication with him about his votes and therefore they are harboring him and should communicate that to law enforcement,” he added.

I guess Dostoevsky’s “If there is no God, everything is permitted” is now: “If you’re a Democrat everything is excused.”

Israel Strikes Back, Iran and Biden hardest hit

I guess Iran and Russia aren’t the only ones who ignore Biden when he says “Don’t”

Israel retaliated on Thursday night to Iran, reportedly launching strikes that targeted the west of the country. Explosions were heard early Friday morning local time in Isfahan prompting commercial flights to divert from their routes. 

Israel launched missiles in a retaliatory strike against Iran on Thursday night, ABC, CBS and NPR reported, citing senior US officials.

Bloomberg reported that Israeli officials notified the United States earlier on Thursday that the country planned to retaliate to Saturday’s attack in the next 24-48 hours. 

Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency reported at around 5:30 a.m. local time (10:00 p.m. ET Thursday) that explosions were heard in Qahjaverestan, northeast of Isfahan. The cause of the explosions is currently unknown, per the outlet. CNN reported that Iran’s air defense systems had been activated, citing Iranian media. 

And not just Iran:

The report came shortly after local sources reported explosions in Isfahan in central Iran, in the As-Suwayda Governorate of southern Syria, and in the Baghdad area and Babil Governorate of Iraq early Friday morning.

Apparently Iran figured out that Biden’s latest don’t wasn’t going to be effective:

 the Iranian regime isn’t taking any chances trying to securely button up what they have, knowing it’s a prime target for attempted destruction. Prudence dictates they bubblewrap their nuclear facilities.

JUST IN CASE

Iran closed down its nuclear facilities amid fears of an Israeli attack, the United Nations has revealed.

Inspectors were blocked from the sites on Sunday, Rafael Grossi, the UN’s International Atomic Energy Agency chief, said.

The shutdown came as Israel’s war cabinet was locked in talks over how to respond to Iran’s first direct attack on its territory.

Experts have warned Iran is on the “threshold” of becoming a nuclear power and could build a bomb in six months to a year. Uranium enrichment is accelerating as the regime faces calls to create a deterrent.

That’s not the only asset Iranians want to protect. For months, and in other periods of unrest prior to this, a certain Iranian Spy ship gussied up as a freighter has been plying the waters of the Red Sea. It mysteriously always seems to be in the vicinity when Houthi missiles are finding their targets or certain tankers or cargo ships need to be culled for boarding and hijacking out of the hundreds floating by.

No word on what the Damage is but no matter how you cut it, Iran loses face, but not as much as Biden.

Then again how much face does the Biden administration have?

House Republicans proved they are no better than Democrats

No major American political party represents the will of American voters, nor do they respect the Constitution.  The Democratic Party, which used to represent workers, has gone completely Marxist.  The Republican Party claims to be the party which loves individual liberty, free market capitalism, and the Constitution.  Events documented in this article prove they are just as bad as the Democrats: Breitbart – Lawmakers, Privacy Experts Sound Alarm on Most ‘Terrifying Expansions of Government Surveillance’ in History in Spy Powers Bill

Lawmakers and privacy experts on both sides of the political spectrum are sounding the alarm on a provision in a spy powers reform bill that one senator described as one of the “most terrifying expansions of government surveillance” in history.

Eighty-six House Republicans last Friday voted for the Reforming Intelligence and Securing America Act (RISAA), a bill that would reauthorize Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Section 702 is a government surveillance authority that is meant to target foreign adversaries, but often surveils Americans’ communications without a warrant.

The 86 Republicans who voted for this pile of excrement are traitors to the United States Constitution.   They did worse than vote to reauthorize FISA, they made it far more odious.

Despite the outrage at the passage of the legislation, 110 Republicans also voted for an amendment proposed by House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner (R-OH) and committee Ranking Member Jim Himes (D-CT) that would seek dramatically expand the ability for the government to surveil Americans’ communications.

The measure updates the definition of electronic service provider to also include “any other service provider who has access to equipment that is being or may be used to transmit or store wire or electronic communications.”

The amendment would significantly expand the number of businesses and their employees who could be compelled to spy on their customers and provide warrantless access to their communications systems in accordance to this controversial FISA provision.

As you can see from this article, Breitbart – Eighty-Six House Republicans Vote for Warrantless Surveillance of Americans, the traitorous Republicans took a philosophical and literal dump on the Constitution.

Eighty-six House Republicans on Friday voted against an amendment to require a warrant for surveillance of Americans’ communications.

Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) proposed an amendment to the Reforming Intelligence and Securing America Act (RISAA), a bill that would reauthorize Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Section 702 is a law that is meant to target foreign adversaries, but often surveils Americans’ private communications without a warrant.

The amendment tied at 212-212 in the House; a tie in the House means that the measure fails. Although Biggs’s amendment did receive support from a majority of Republicans, 86 House Republicans failed to support the proposal.

Speaker of the House Johnson proved himself to be no better than Nancy Pelosi when he cast the deciding vote on this abomination.
