Another Pipeline rupture sends 40,000 litres of oil into Alberta creek effecting Edmonton's drinking water

The Canadian Press is reporting that "The Alberta Energy Regulator says a pipeline has spilled 40,000 litres of crude oil into a creek. The regulator says on its website that the incident happened Thursday on a Bonterra Energy Corp. line 14 kilometres south of Drayton Valley, Alta. It says the line was shut in and depressurized, and that containment booms were installed. The AER says no impacts to wildlife were reported." Yeah right. Dead fish tell no tales.

40,000 litres of oil in a creek that runs into the Saskatchewan river. Drink up folks It's good for you. Global is reporting that "Four days after the Alberta Energy Regulator was told 40,000 litres of oil emulsion leaked from a pipeline into a creek that feeds into the North Saskatchewan River, Edmonton’s primary utility provider says the city’s drinking water is perfectly safe.” Not.



The North Saskatchewan river is Edmonton's sole source of drinking water. "Regulator records show this isn’t the first time the company has had problems in the area." Clean up is expected to take three weeks but Edmonton drinking water is safe. Rollyeyes.

CBC is reporting that "For the second time in less than a month there was a pipeline spill in the province, which serves as the centre of the country’s oil industry. Last month it was 100,000 litres. Now, the Alberta Energy Regulator said on the weekend, a pipeline spilled 40,000 litres of crude into a creek near Drayton Valley last Thursday. The regulator says the incident happened on a Bonterra Energy Corp. line that has left oil seeping into Washout Creek. The creek flows into the North Saskatchewan River, which is the source of city of Edmonton’s water supply. Bonterra says it is taking the necessary steps to limit the damage."

The Calgary Herald reported that "Alberta’s energy watchdog has set a target to cut the number of pipeline spills that affect wildlife and water systems through added enforcement and more frequent inspections on poorly performing companies. The Alberta Energy Regulator also released an online database that outlines the record of every oil and gas company regarding pipeline spills and other incidents over the past two years. It believes that by holding companies publicly accountable for their performance, there will be fewer spills."

The Sovereign Citizen movement in the US

It has been brought to my attention that there is a movement within the United States that call themselves Sovereign Citizens. It has it's roots within the white supremacy moment but since then a lot of people of colour in the US are embracing the doctrine and are trying to declare themselves Sovereign Citizens which basically means they renounce their US Citizenship.

First let me declare, that ain't me. I am proud of my citizenship. In contrast, I am an oath keeper. I believe in protecting the Constitution and the Charter of Rights. I believe in pledging allegiance to the flag and the free republic it represents. Renouncing my citizenship is like being a draft dodger.

At first glance it would appear that Sovereign Citizens think that by renouncing your social security number you no longer have to pay taxes or obey any laws. As absurd as that sounds, it is astounding how large this group has become. It reminds me of that US Facebook group that wanted to shoot their guns at an approaching hurricane. At first we thought it was funny and a joke. Then we realized some wingnuts actually thought that if enough people got out there and fired their guns at a hurricane, the combined force would turn the hurricane away.

None of you ever thought that discharging a firearm at a hurricane might be dangerous because the high speed winds might change the trajectory of the bullet and aim it right back at you?

In Hawaii there is a group of people who want to break free from the US and form their own country like Quebec. I understand the logic. However, once you form a new country, you are going to have to pay taxes to them. Taxes pay for roads, schools, hospitals, police. Basically every social program under the sun. We can certainly debate how taxes are spent and how much tax is collected but no mater what country you join, you're still going to have to pay taxes. Without taxes there is no order, no law enforcement. Nothing gets done. Anarchy is the result. Chaos.

I am not an Anarchist or a Communist. I am the Irish definition of Republican. I believe in a free republic where all people are welcome regardless of race, colour or creed. Yes people have the right to believe in sovereign citizens, but they still must obey the law. As the preamble to the Canadian Charter of Rights declares, I believe in the supremacy of God and the rule of law.

It's like the Jehovah Witnesses. I totally support the freedom of religion. I believe the Jehovah Witnesses have every right to exist. I just don't agree with their beliefs. Some things they believe I agree with but there are other things they believe I do not agree with. For example, they don't believe in going to war. Conscientious objectors have their place in society. However, freedom comes with a price. Fighting Hitler was the right thing to do.

The Jehovah Witnesses are going around telling everyone not to vote in elections. I do not believe that is God's work. If all the good people stop voting in elections, then all the bad people will be elected. That is what Satan wants. That is not what God wants. All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men and women to be silent and not vote in elections. Look before you leap.



Eric Jon Phelps is a sovereign citizen who wants Pennsylvania to break off from the United States and form it's own country. He wants to make it for whites only. I kid you not. That is why he is a sovereign citizen. That is his agenda. Right now he can't do that because the sacred Constitution forbids racial discrimination. So he has to convince people to forsake the Constitution and become a sovereign citizen. That way he can defy the constitution at will.

The con is the claim that if you become a sovereign citizen you won't have to pay taxes. Oh really? For how long? Once you form a new country, you're going to have to pay taxes to them. These sovereign citizen false prophets want you to pay a lot of money for a hard copy of their redemption manual and they want you to pay them for subscriptions to their snake oil propaganda. Once they con you into giving up the sacred Constitution under the false promise that you won't have to pay taxes, you will have to pay them. They don't want you to pay taxes to the US government. They want you to pay taxes to them instead.

In the movie the Patriot with Mel Gibson, there's a scene where the Americans are complaining about the amount of tax England charges and refer to it as taxation without representation. They are trying to convince Mel Gibson to join the rebellion.

He responds with a wise concern and states: "Would you tell me, please, Mister Howard, why should I trade one tyrant three thousand miles away for three thousand tyrants one mile away? An elected legislature can trample a man's rights as easily as a King can." Mather Byles was the author of the quote. That was the exact concern many Canadians had who became loyalists.

As we can now see, Hong Kong was far better off under British rule than under the Communist party of China. They had a lot more freedom under British rule than they ever will under the yoke of Communism. This is why Brexit is so important. Giving up your sovereignty and joining the EU without a Constitution that guarantees civil liberty is voting for slavery and oppression.

If you love liberty, then you will defend the Constitution. If you want the south to rise again and bring back slavery then so be it. I'll see you on the other side of that battle field. "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

Easy Rider Star Peter Fonda RIP

The Independent is reporting that "Hollywood star Peter Fonda has died aged 79 after respiratory failure from lung cancer, his family have said. The actor, who is best known for his starring role as Wyatt in 1969’s counterculture classic Easy Rider, passed away peacefully at his home in Los Angeles, they said in a statement to People magazine. 'In honour of Peter, please raise a glass to freedom.' Fonda was best known for his role in Easy Rider, which celebrated its 50th anniversary last month." Let Freedom Ring. God Damn the Pusher man yo. Ride Hard, Die Free.



BTW Wally Stadnick is a b*tch. Cap that. Why the f*ck would you attend the funeral of someone you killed? Get the f*ck out of Surrey you worthless POS. Brother's Keepers, watch your back. Stadnick and Boucher didn't fight the Rock Machine, they were in bed with them. They used the RM to kill their own political rivals within the Hells Angels. F*ck ups Forever, Forever F*ck ups.

I told you that worthless POS Stadnick hadn't left the life. That's why he was trashing the new RM to Michael. He didn't have control over the new RM like he did the old RM. He is a 5' 4" back stabbing snake in the grass. That's all he ever was and all he'll ever be.

Motorcycle cop crashed doing a burnout

The Squamish Chief is reporting that "Following an accident involving an officer at this year’s Squamish Motorcycle Festival, the RCMP is launching an internal investigation into the matter. A video posted to social media shows a Mountie and another rider locking the fronts of their motorcycles and spinning their back wheels to create smoke. However, the officer’s bike moves forward and collides with another nearby motorcyclist circling the pair." Loser.

That' what you get for showing off. I don't understand what the obsession with brake stands is. I noticed that at Barnes Harley-Davidson in Langley the parking lot has a lot of burnout marks on the pavement. Everyone wants to do a burnout test riding a new Harley? That's pretty stupid.

I don't do break stands on my bike because I pay for tires and brakes. I grew up.

Fatal stabbing in South Surrey

Global is reporting that "A man is dead in following an overnight stabbing near Surrey’s Semiahmoo Shopping Centre. Police said they were called to the 1700 block of 152 Street around 3 a.m, where they found a man suffering from grievous stab wounds."

The Peacearch News is reporting that "A 45-year-old man has been identified as the victim in Friday morning’s fatal stabbing in South Surrey. In a news release issued just after 11:30 p.m. Friday, Integrated Homicide Investigation Team officials said they were releasing Delphin Paul Prestbakmo’s name in an effort to determine his activities prior to his death."

Shark MC in Holland replaces banned Hells Angels

TBM Scandinavia is reporting that "More than twenty members of the new motorcycle club Hardliners MC posed in full colors on the platform of the Haarlem city hall on Thursday afternoon. The photo session was with the back to the camera. Hardliners MC was founded from prison by Lysander de R., the former leader of the Haarlem Hells Angels."

This after a Dutch court banned the Hells Angels motorcycle gang in the Netherlands, saying it had a track record of violent crime in May. The new shark logo look like an old kid's cartoon.

Man injured in Burnaby Shooting

Global is reporting that "A 25-year-old man is in hospital following a shooting in Burnaby early Thursday morning. Emergency crews were called to an industrial area on Keith Street between Joffre Avenue and Greenall Avenue around 4:15 a.m. The main area of interest is a wooded area at Ivy Avenue and Keith Street. One police officer told Global News that the area is known to be frequented by squatters, and that a social gathering had been taking place."

SNC Lavalin Fraud has nothing to do with Justin Trudeau

The SNC Lavalin Fraud has nothing to do with Justin Trudeau. Andrew Scheer calling for a RCMP investigation into Justin Trudeau's support for SNC Lavalin is the fraud. The Conservatives would have done the exact same thing if not worse. The real SNC Lavalin Fraud is tied to the current BC NDP and every other political party that blindly endorses them.

We know that SNC Lavalin is a corrupt company. Yet they keep getting government contracts and giving kickbacks in the form of political contributions. SNC Lavalin getting the contract for the Evergreen Line in BC after they were banned from world projects was a criminal act.

The problem is that Justin Trudeau and every other political party including the BC Liberals and the BC NDP think that if they support SNC Lavalin they support jobs in Canada. Not so. If SNC Lavalin folds the sky will not fall. Another company in the private sector will get the contract and still employ Canadians to get the work done.

SNC Lavalin underbids and over charges government contracts just like Lockheed Martin. If other Canadian companies are allowed to bid on government contracts then it will save tax dollars and employees will get paid better because all the money won't be going to bribes and corrupt managers. Canadians are better off without SNC Lavalin.

Conor McGregor punches elderly man in Dublin pub

The Score is reporting that a video shows Conor Sh*tbag McGregor punching an elderly man in the head at a pub in Dublin because he didn't want a drink of McGregor's sh*ty whiskey. The other elderly man has his back towards him avoiding McGregor completely. Conor McGregor is a racist piece of smelly garbage without any class. He was a lightweight. That is all he ever was.

Surrey RCMP bust Brother's Keepers drug lab

CBC is reporting that "On Aug. 6, officers raided a residence in the 16300 block of 14A Avenue where they discovered a large drug manufacturing operation they believe is connected to the crime group, Brothers Keepers. Some of the drugs were packaged in bulk and some were packaged for street level distribution. RCMP say preliminary testing indicates fentanyl was detected among the substances found."

Is this a joke? The Brothers Keeps sold drugs for the Hells Angels. Was this just a token bust of a few doses to take the heat off or are the Surrey RCMP trying to turn a new leaf right before they are disbanded? Will they bust the drugs coming out of Shakerz next or are they just targeting the Brothers Keepers because they refused to do the hit on Suminder Grewal? Please advise.



So it was the Surrey RCMP Drug Section that executed the search warrant. Both Surrey’s Gang Enforcement Team and the Federal Serious and Organized Crime Unit’s Clandestine Lab Enforcement and Response Team were also part of the raid. The Compromised BC Gang task force were nowhere to be found. Perhaps Kelowna should hire them to bust Arnie Miller. The former cop who pimps and sells drugs for the Kelowna Hells Angels out of the Garden of Eden. Letting him continue makes gang enforcement in BC a complete joke. Is the Surrey RCMP Drug Section going to bust the drugs coming out of Shakerz and the Dell bowling alley that supply King George in Whalley? Makes everything else they do look suspicious if they don't.
