Prince Harry and Meghan Markle: God save the Queen



Well it's official. Prince Harry is engaged to Meghan Markle. Congratulations! Normally I don't give a rats ass what the royals do. It's their business. However, due to some of the insanely racist comments I will point out the obvious. Do we not know who Prince Harry is? He is the son of Princess Diana, the best thing that ever happened to the royal family.

Prince Harry has followed his heart and has chosen to marry a biracial American actress. Biracial? She's half black. Not that it matters because it doesn't. Why she's even part Irish so she is. Some Brits will be more opposed to that then her being part black.

One of the comments on twitter was our soldiers didn't die for this. Ah actually yes they did. This is exactly what they died for. Hitler was the one that talked about a superior race. Hitler was on the other side of the battlefield. In the United States Martin Luther King had a dream that one day men and women would be judged by the content of their character not by the color of their skin.

She's beautiful. They look happy. They make a wonderful couple. I cant wait to see what kind of noble acts her kind heart reveals. Let's get to know her beauty from within before we cast stones and reveal our own ignorance. It's time for our civilized society to get educated.

Michaëlle Jean was the first black Governor General of Canada. She was a refugee from Haiti. She was genuine and sincere and cared about the people. She served well.

Senator John McCain tells Hillary Clinton to move on



Newsweek is reporting that "Senator John McCain says Hillary Clinton should not have published her book so soon after losing the 2016 election because it makes her look like she’s still campaigning and has nothing else to do. “What’s the f-----g point? Keep the fight up? History will judge that campaign, and it’s always a period of time before they do,” McCain told Esquire magazine in a long interview Monday. “You’ve got to move on. This is Hillary’s problem right now: She doesn’t have anything to do.” Exactly. It's time for her to move on.

Honduras Election



It is somewhat amusing to see how the American media is spinning the Honduran election. Reuters is reporting that " A TV host was on course for victory in the Honduran presidential race on Monday, in a dramatic election that upended forecasts of a win for the country’s U.S.-friendly incumbent. Flamboyant entertainer Salvador Nasralla, 64, was ahead by a 5 point margin with 70 percent of ballots counted, election official Marcos Ramiro Lobo told Reuters. That was too large a lead for his rival, center-right President Juan Orlando Hernandez, to overcome, Lobo said."

The New York Times is reporting that "A TV host was on course for victory in the Honduran presidential race on Monday, in a dramatic election that upended forecasts of a win for the country’s U.S.-friendly incumbent.". Now The New York Times is very credibility. However, *someone* is feeding them information that might not be entirely acurate and it *might* be the same ones that were involved in the Honduran Coup back in 2009.

Article 239 of the Honduras constitution clearly prohibits a president from serving more than one term and indicates that anyone who tries to amend Article 239 should be removed from office and disqualified from performing any public responsibilities for ten years. In 2009 when Zelaya tried to hold a referendum to amend the constitution the US (Hillary Clinton & the CIA's drug traficking network) supported a military coup removing him. Fast forward to 2017. Conservative President Juan Orlando Hernandez amended the constitution to let him run again without a referendum and the US supported it.

Why did the US support a coup against a president who tried to hold a referendum to amend the constitution to let him run a second term but support a successive president who amended the constitution without a referendum? Simply because Juan Orlando Hernandez is conservative while Manuel Zelaya was a liberal who formed an alliance with the left. That was his crime.

The people of Honduras don't like Juan Hernandez because he changed the constitution without a referendum. That's why they voted him out. It has nothing to do with being pro or anti America. In contrast we must ask is America pro or anti democracy? That is what's really on the table.

Update: CIA suports Honduras voter fraud

Montreal Police crack down on fentanyl, Vancouver Police promote it



The Revelstoke Mountaineer is reporting that after two people died of fentnyl overdoses in Montreal six weeks later the montrel police "had conducted six raids, arresting 13 drug dealers linked to the two deaths. They seized $19,000 in cash, along with fentanyl, about 500 grams of heroin, meth and other drugs. Montreal police chief Philippe Pichet was blunt commenting after the last raid: 'We will follow and stop those who put (fentanyl) into narcotics.' Note his choice of words. Pichet was announcing the priority for his department’s drug enforcement efforts, he was declaring war on fentanyl to stave-off a public health crisis.”

Why do we promote poison in lethal injection sites? It is a conflict of interest. Why do we give the fentanyl dealers police protection in the DTES and on the Surrey strip? That is illegal.

Site C company tied to South Korea coruption



The Times Colonist is reporting that "In November 2015, B.C. Hydro announced that its preferred proponent for the Site C main civil-works contract was Peace River Hydro Partners, which includes Acciona Infrastructure, Petrowest Corp. and Samsung C&T.

As was first raised in this space more than a year ago, all three were facing problems at the time. Samsung Group was under investigation for bid-rigging and corruption in South Korea, Acciona was under investigation for corruption in Spain — two executives were arrested by Spanish authorities less than a month after the Site C deal was signed — and Petrowest was “living on borrowed time” from its lenders. There have been a few developments since. In August, the head of Samsung, Jay Y. Lee, was sentenced to five years in prison for bribery, after being found guilty of “offering bribes to the country’s former president and other crimes.” Petrowest finally succumbed to borrowed time and went into receivership in August. As for “on time and on budget,” Site C is neither and likely never was, despite B.C. Hydro claiming otherwise."

Samsung Group was tied to bid-rigging and corruption in South Korea which triggered massive protests causing the president to resign. Meanwhile back on the ranch, massive project overruns on the Site C dam and nobody cares. Evidently they only convict corruption in South Korea.

Pentatonix Christmas



Pentatonix is hosting another Christmas special this year. I like them. They're on Monday night November 27th on NBC. Jennifer Hudson joined in and was magnificent.

Vancouver Christmas Market



We checked out the German Christmas market in Vancouver today. It was nice to go before the crowds get crazy. Now it's at Jack Poole Plaza where the Olympic Cauldron is beside Canada Place. The Christmas market is a great place to get authentic food and handmade crafts. It costs $10 to get in but if you pay an extra dollar you can get a seasons pass which is well worth it. I don't like the mulled wine. Sugary red wine just isnt my thing. I prefer the dark beer myself.



The Trans Siberian Orchestra is another Christmas tradition. They're awesome.

Calgary: largest fentanyl bust in ALERT history



CBC is reporting that "Investigators confiscated record-setting amounts of methamphetamine and fentanyl pills in a year-long operation dubbed Project Offshore that Calgary police say took more than $4 million in drugs off the streets. Over the course of the operation, 11 houses in Calgary were searched, turning up 15,757 fentanyl pills, 28 kilograms of methamphetamine, 6.7 kilograms of cocaine and 75 kilograms of cocaine buffing agent, ALERT says."

"The fentanyl seizure is the largest of its kind by ALERT, while the meth seizure nearly doubles the previous record for all of Alberta. Given the health crisis our communities have faced over opioid abuse, there is no doubt in my mind that lives have been saved." No kidding.

This is how you save lives and confront organized crime. By getting fentanyl off the streets. Not with Lethal Injection sites. Public opinion claims the Edmonton Police Service is compromised. That's why ALERT is the one confronting drug trafficking not the EPS.

Now the BC Gang task Force is compromised. They no longer target drug trafficking. They give the Hells Angels drug dealers police protection in the DTES and on the Surrey strip and pay millions of dollar to Hells Angels drug dealers and enforcers in exchange for letting them continue as long as they rat out a few small time rivals. In Alberta the gang task force is confronting organized crime. In BC they are promoting it.

The Sonoma Angels Indictment



The Aging Rebel is reporting that "the United States Attorney for the Northern District of California released the indictment that actually charges 10 members of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club and one former member with racketeering. The indictment, titled U.S. v. Jonathan Joseph Nelson at al., is a 17 page document appended to 20 pages of indictment sheets. The club members belong to three charters: Sonoma, Fresno and Salem, Massachusetts."

Last year we cited a San Francisco Gate article stating "When a 49-year-old Santa Rosa woman learned her husband was about to be stripped of his membership in the notorious Hells Angels Motorcycle Club, police say she met with a member over the weekend to get answers. Instead of receiving an explanation, officials say she was sexually assaulted by the former president of the outlaw biker group’s Sonoma County chapter and forced to comply for the sake of her husband’s safety. Her attacker, 53-year-old Rohnert Park resident Raymond Michael Foakes, was arrested Monday night on suspicion of sexual assault, victim intimidation, stalking and gang participation."

Ray Foakes was the former president of the Sonoma County Hells Angels. As the Aging Rebel points out, the rape allegation and the murder of a third person in the Fresno clubhouse are the big charges. The rest appear to be minor charges of assaulting people and stealing their motorcycles. Who does that anyways? Only rats steal motorcycles. Freaking rodents. I thought rape was against the HA rules? Evidently not. What they say and what they do are two different things. Mom Boucher got his patch after getting out of jail for armed rape.

In 2006 Ray Foakes was charged with possessing and distributing crystal meth. In 2008 his brother in law was shot dead beside him in the truck he was driving after Hells Angels in a prosession behind him swarmed a vehicle in a road rage incident.

Credibility concerns at the Kevin LeClair murder trial



Kim Bolan is reporting that "A defence lawyer for alleged gang hitman Cory Vallee said in B.C. Supreme Court on Wednesday that a key Crown witness made up a confession from his client in order to get a deal from police." The lawyer then cited some details of what the witness claimed to police that Vallee told him about the LeClair hit that did not line up with other evidence called earlier in the trial. There has been huge credibility concerns with paid crown witnesses lately.

Aside from the credibility concerns of the paid police witness, the actual testimony he gave about the murder confession is absolutely absurd. The crown claims As Vallee sipped his soup, D said: “I just looked at him and I said `Everything went OK? And then he just kind of looked up at me and nodded and gave a smile, yep, and he just went back to eating his soup.” I don't really see that as a confession to the murder. Is everything OK? Yes it is. There was no confession.

Initially the police claimed the Bacon's ordered the hit on Kevin because Kevin was cooperating with the police with regards to the Surrey Six along with everyone else who saw that outrageous event as a turning point in the public's conscience about murder. However, it appears the police were lying to that witness in hopes they would testify against the Bacons.

My concerns remain consistent. The police are not trying to stop drug trafficking, they are only trying to seize the proceeds of crime in exchange for letting it continue. The police have no regard for truth or justice. Putting Blaze on their payroll is evidence of that.
