A Canadian “In Vino Veritas”* Q&A

(Imagine!)

During and after the December 17, 2024 Liberal Holiday Caucus party (where food and Canadian wines¹ flow freely), a few die-hard reporters manage to scrum three caucus VVIPs before security ends the questioning:

Q: Mr. LeBlanc,² after MP and PM remarks of short hours ago, how can you say your Liberal party is united as you claim?
A: Well, let me say, I know I said yes, yesterday, or maybe the day before, but the truth is No, we’re not united, except when we must vote to keep our jobs and augment our pensions. The truth is, quite a bunch desperately want the PM gone, but we gotta hang on till our omnibus Bill C63³ gets passed, cause you know: how else during the inevitable coming campaign are we gonna censor and prosecute all the hate speech against us for the past nine years? Besides that ...
(Jolène Richard interrupts: “Sorry Ms Reporter, but Dom and I gotta go. Other commitments, you know.”)

Q: Ms Freeland, Ms Freeland,⁴ are you intending to run for PM, when ...?
A: Of course, I am. I was the one running most everything anyway. At least, Klaus and I were and we have great plans for Canadians in the coming Wo...
(Graham Bowley interrupts: “Sorry Ezra, but it’s past our son’s bedtime. We need to get him home. School tomorrow, you know.”)

Q: Ms Gould, Ms Gould,⁵ who gave you the orders to table the Fall Economic Statement and then vanish⁶? And secondly, what do you say to the charge that your vanishing act was in contempt of duties to the House? ... Ms Gould ... MS GOULD ... (as she vanishes through a nearby door).
(Security appears through the Gould door: “As a point of order, there shall be no more questioning of ministers. This is a loyal-to-the-Liberal-family-only⁷ party.”)

So, what do we do, good Canadians, with this impasse of power and privilege obsession? What do we do when corruption after corruption, scandal after scandal are exposed and nothing done — no consequence?

At the least, let us remember every MP (Left, Right, Middle, or Far) who voted against constitutional rights and freedoms during COVID; who currently ignores or denies the exposed corruptions and scandals; or who denigrates or inverts long-standing Canadian values and culture. Then let us, at the ballot box remove their power. Let us also remember with our ballot every MP of integrity. Let us be forever vocal and involved.

* “In vino veritas is a Latin phrase that means 'in wine, there is truth', suggesting a person under the influence of alcohol is more likely to speak their hidden thoughts and desires. The phrase is sometimes continued as, in vīnō vēritās, in aquā sānitās, 'in wine there is truth, in water there is good sense (or good health)'. Similar phrases exist across cultures and languages.” | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_vino_veritas

The Act would create a new duty of care of large social media platforms, requiring them to take action against "harmful" content such as hate speech; extremism and terrorism; child bullying, self-harm, and sexual abuse; and intimate content shared without consent. They would also be required to employ age-appropriate design features when the platform is used by a minor. The Act would establish a federal Digital Safety Commission and Digital Safety Office to enforce its provisions. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_Harms_Act

Hey World! The Future in 1.08 Minutes?

Did I say “The Future”? I misspoke. Not the real future, just the future envisioned by “power” Utopians and their gods — you know, those dreamers like Chairman Mao and other faux-wokers¹ who are obsessed with destroying all the:

▪ old thinking
▪ old knowledge
▪ old culture
▪ old morals
▪ old customs²

So, let us ponder: Could the projected future of the Utopians be portrayed any more graphically than Apple just did? Ironically, 40 years ago Apple celebrated its creativity with a 1:06 minute, iconic “1984 Super Bowl Commercial.”³ However, this 2024 commercial has upped the ante from the 1984  commercial. There, in 1984,  Apple mocked the competition; here it crushes not just the competition, but creativity itself. Not what Apple intended maybe, but truth, as usual, reveals itself in the strangest of ways (with mixed results⁴).

So here’s a heads-up to the neo-Maoists, Fwokers, and Crushers. The future you dream of ain’t comin’. It might look like you’ve killed the old for a time — like you’ve successfully swept the field clean for a new World Order (WO), but the Universe always, eventually, repays in kind — one sows what one reaps.

So, just another heads-up! It ain't too late, yet, you know, to avoid the reaper — the Crusher!
