“When everything is offensive, nothing is offensive.”
Blazing Saddles offended everything and everybody. It was hilarious but it could not be made today under current SJW and snowflake sensibilities where everything is offensive. Here is a link. Good reading:

Here is an excerpt from that trail blazing movie:
Madeline Kahn was a fantastic actress. She died way too young.
From the “You Won’t Believe It’s True” file” comes this:
“Just when frustrated residents of New Jersey, one of the most heavily taxed states in the US, thought Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy had already brought the state into the ninth circle of taxation hell with new taxes to save the state’s ailing pension system, middle class voters in one of the least affordable states in the country have now been given one more thing to complain about: A tax on the rain.?”
The air that we breathe is next. Why? Because every living thing on the planet expunges CO2. Yup even Santa Claus Virginia!
I bet you didn’t know that a human body is comprised of 18.3% Carbon. Therefore, given our Liberal politician’s absolute pathological hatred of all things Carbon – “it’s a poison man, a poison” and given that for every breath they take they exhale C02 then why don’t all Liberal and Progressive politicians do us all a favour by taking themselves and all of their cronies, consultants and advisors out of the gene pool. For heaven’s sake…er…for the planet’s sake. Lead by example for a climate change…why don’t you. “Take my Prime Minister…..Please.”
For those of you who do not know, Jody Raybould Wilson is / was Canada’s Justice Minister or Attorney General of Canada for want of a better term – a woman and an Indigenous person to boot. And that is exactly what our spineless Prime Minister Turd-ope did. He gave her the boot by relieving her of the Justice portfolio with a demotion of her cabinet stature to that gawd awful, gawd forsaken job of Veteran’s Affairs and Deputy Defence minister! Naturally she resigned from Veteran’s Affairs and has since resigned from Turd-ope’s LIberal Cabinet (she has my respect).
Everybody (except Turd-ope and Turd-ope’s Butt) knows that Wilson was demoted because she would not fall victim to Turd-ope’s and the Prime Minister’s Office’s pressure to intervene in the SNC Lavalin fraud and corruption case by giving SNC a free ride and exoneration from all current and future charges. After all SNC Lavalin, like Bombardier, is a major engineering and high tech firm based in Quebec. And like Bombardier, SNC was deemed by Turd-ope and the PMO as “Too French to Fail.”
The alleged intervention in this case by the Prime Minister and the PMO is, if deemed true, a blatant conflict of interest of the highest order. It is an action that undermines our democracy and rule of law, as it equates to interference in a legal case by government officials. This is far more serious than ADSCAM. But given the liberal propensity of our media this will probably be construed as a non event so “move on people. No story here.” It will not be covered by the press. And Turd-ope, just like the alleged groping incident, will be given a free ride on this “Shame on you the Me Too” crowd for allowing that incident to disappear from the public’s eye.
Family Compact? Remember that from your Canadian History. The compact that hastened the revolts of 1837 in Upper and Lower Canada and resulted in the 1839 Durham Report which in turn led to the Act of Union of Lower and Upper Canada of 1840, which ultimately resulted in Confederation of 1868 and the British North American Act (I researched this so you don’t have to). Well if you think that the Family Compact went away think again. Canada’s political hierarchy has been anchored in Quebec and Ontario since 1867. That political hierarchy has been running this country ever since Confederation. If you think that the Family Compact in Canada is dead then consider this:
House of Commons or Canadian Representatives….Predominantly Liberal;
Cabinet or Executive Branch of Government…………..Liberal;
Judiciary…………………………………………………………………….Liberal
Academia……………………………………………………………………Hard left Liberal;
Cultural………………………………………………………………………Hard Left Liberal; and
Media………………………………………………………………………….Liberal.
With respect to criticism of government policies there is no debate but rather a typical government response of: Racism, Bigotry, Homophobia, or some other form of Phobia.
CANADIANS!………………………..WAKE UP!
Now I am not a fan of Proportional Representation as the NDP or Greens would define it but I am in favour of some form of government electoral system that is not tied to the “First Past the Post Paradigm.” After all, if a party forms a majority government in Canada, what we really have in this country is an elected dictatorship for 4 years…..not good.
I think I need a song that is uplifting:
Have a great Navy day.

Or this:
Vezelay is one of the staring points of the “Via Limovicensis” to St Jean Pied de Port French pilgrimage. In the middle ages pilgrims from northern Europe took this route as part of the Camino De Santiago pilgrimage in Spain. This aspect of the pilgrimage is 900 kilometers in length. But you can’t look at it that way. It is just 20-25 kilometers per day.
I have always loved the old world vibe and architecture of Europe, especially the massive cathedrals. Vezelay is said to have some of the remains of Mary Magdellan. Perhaps. Maybe not. But this Catholic mythology gives Vezelay its unique charm and patina.
