The Sea to Sky Gondola has reopened

The Sea to Sky gondola reopened today so I rode up to check it out. It's right between the Chief and Shannon Falls. It's a bit pricey but a seasons pass is worth it.

You can hike in the summer and snowshoe in the winter.

It makes Shy Pilot accessible and helps people appreciate the outdoors.

Now is a good time to talk about fake environmentalists. The criminals who cut the cable twice are deranged. They should go to jail and pay the costs of their vandalism. This facility does not harm the environment at all. It helps people appreciate the environment.

It makes the outdoors more accessible and helps people get in touch with nature. The Gondola on Grouse has been there for years. It does not harm the environment. These whack jobs that cut the cable are freaks and need to be held accountable. People need consequences.

Straw Lies, Dirty Cops and Fake News

Before I move on to other things, I just want to pause and point out two more bold faced lies coning from Dr Spin and the Compromised BC Gang Task Force. Gang members do not use registered firearms to execute gang hits. Dr Spin admitted that Francois Gauthier was a hired hitman from out of province that left his gun at the scene of the crime. This professional hitman left the gun at the scene of the crime because it was not registered and was untraceable.

Notwithstanding that fact, this unholy alliance is still pushing the straw purchase fallacy. If someone with a gun license buys a handgun that gun is registered in their name. They are only allowed to take it to the gun range and back home. That is all. If they alter the serial number and sell it to a gang member, that firearm is still registered in their name and always will be until they file the proper papers to legally transfer its ownership. The police will say where is this gun?

The vast majority of illegal guns are coming in from the US. They are unregistered. The term straw purchase came from Operation Fast and Furious where the ATF were selling the Mexican Cartel guns in exchange for tons of cocaine which they brought back into the US. El Chappo had a .50 cal sniper rifle from Operation Fast and Furious.

Dr Spin's lie has a motive. The motive is not to reduce violent crime. The motive is to take legal guns away from law abiding citizens without criminal records. That is the first thing a Communist government does before they commit murder.

After the Kelowna Summer Jam in 2012 that took down David Giles and the stolen car ring in Kelowna, the BC Liberals disbanded the OMGU and stopped arresting Hells Angels associates for drug trafficking. Since I have been hammering that fact over and over again, Dr Spin throws out a couple fake token arrests that don't target anyone so the CFSEU can pretend they are doing their job when they clearly are not. The fake news has become ridiculous.

People are scared as gang activity fuels Portland violence

The Canadian Press is reporting that "When Oregon’s most populous city had a rampant gang problem 30 years ago, Portland detectives were stunned if they found more than a few dozen bullet casings after a shooting. Now, police are recording multiple shootings a week with 50 to 70 shots fired, and in one case more than 150, as gang attacks and retaliatory shootings again spiral into a vicious cycle." I guess that's what happens when you defund the police, idiots.

Systemic Racism: Canada, China or India? Update

Recently a 20 year old man driving a pickup truck jumped a curb and ran over a Muslim family in Ontario. This horrific event is a complete tragedy. Yet so is the political exploitation of the event. Does racism exist in Canada? Of course it does. That's like saying does crime exist in Canada. Crime and racism exist in Canada but we shun both. My neighbors are Muslim.

In 2017 thousands of Canadians showed up in the rain at a Mosque in Vancouver to show support after a deranged criminal shot 6 people dead at a Muslim Mosque in Quebec.

At that rally, the head of the Mosque invited his friend, a Jewish Rabbi to speak. The Jewish Rabbi spoke out against racism and blew a ram's horn as a wakeup call for Canadians to be vigilant in defence of their values. That does not represent systemic racism.

Justin Trudeau is a complete hypocrite. There is no question systemic racism permeates Communist China where Muslims are rounded up into prison camps and executed for their organs like the Falun Gong. Justin Trudeau admires China's dictatorship because he is a lunatic.

Recently Jagmeet Singh launched a scathing attack on Canadian values saying that Canada is a horrible place to live and is full of racism. He wouldn't be the leader of the NDP if it was. Jagmeet needs to look in the mirror. My daughter dated a brown guy in Surrey. He told her that if his parents found out he was dating a white girl they would freak but if they found out he was dating a Muslim, they would murder him. Literally. There's a lot of racism in India too. The question is, are we going to promote the good or are we going to promote the bad?

Candace Owens and Rob Smith have both spoken out about the media's obsession with the term systemic racism and the need to teach children to hate America. The mainstream media is trying to do the same thing here. The US had a black president. Now they have a black vice president. That does not reflect systemic racism. Candace Owens wrote a book called Blackout referencing the Democrats long history of being plantation owners and KKK members. That is why the media keeps trying to rewrite history to promote their insane globalist agenda.

Jagmeet Singh is a fake feminist just like Justin Trudeau. Jagmeet is obsessed with promoting gender-based abortions. This is something India has a problem with. For some crazy reason, many families in India are so desperate to have boys, if they find out the mother is carrying a girl, they kill it. That is not progressive. That is regressive and repressive.

India has many wonderful traditions we now celebrate here: Vaisakhi, Diwali, Holi. Killing their women is not one of them. Not only is it immoral, it is also stupid. If you kill all your women, who are your sons going to marry? As always, we need to promote good and shun evil.

Update: Dan Dicks is reporitng that "New evidence has emerged that directly contradicts the narrative that 'Islamaphobia' was the reason for an 'attack' on a muslim family, yet Justin Trudeau, Jagmeet Singh and others have already emphatically stated that this was indeed the work of hatred and a terrorist attack. An eye witness stated that the suspect asked him to call the police, he also asked him to film the arrest, meanwhile his close friends (one from the Middle East) say he is NOT an Islamaphobe and in fact he contacted one of them 3 days prior stating that he was having issues with the steering in his new truck!"

Seeing this family walk down the street it would be hard to identify them as Muslim. They're not wearing hijabs and they're from Pakistan. The scarf looks more like a sari since her hair is exposed. There's nothing wrong with that. I'm just saying if I saw that family walking down the street, I wouldn't know they were Muslim. Kinda makes ya wonder if the kid did have problems with his steering after all.

Hydrogen plant in Edmonton

Castanet is reporting that "The federal and Alberta governments are signing an agreement that could lead to a plant to produce hydrogen built near Edmonton. The governments say they're working with Air Products Canada to build the $1.3-billon plant, which would produce the clean-burning fuel from natural gas. They say the plant would produce hydrogen-fuelled electricity and liquid hydrogen for transportation and could be running by 2024."

"Hydrogen releases no carbon when it burns. Using hydrogen instead of fossil fuels is thought to be a significant way to reduce Canada's greenhouse gas emissions."

This isn't bad it's just kind of redundant. Why don't you use natural gas for natural gas - heating homes as well as fuelling trucks and ships? If you want hydrogen, why don't you just get it from water through electrolysis? When I was a kid I wanted to build a car that ran on hydrogen. You fill the tank up with water and get the hydrogen through electrolysis. Extracting the hydrogen from the water at a power plant and filling the car with straight hydrogen would be more viable.

Clay Roueche Rising

Update: The cops hacks Clay's domain so he has his art work and T-shirts on a new domain.

I saw a recent YouTube video about Clay Roueche that pretty much remixed the old article in the Rolling Stone magazine referring to him as the King of BC Bud and I thought it was time to give an update as a lot has happened since then.

The video starts off with a quote from Susan Roe the US District Attorney involved with his illegal arrest stating that "He is an accomplished businessman. He did have a sophisticated business plan and had he been a legitimate businessman he could have been very successful."

That sounds more like a letter of reference than a complaint. Marc Emery was a famous Canadian incarcerated in the US for selling pot seeds online. He was referred to as the Prince of Pot. Now pot is legal in Canada and law enforcement have gone out of their way to prevent Marc and his brand from getting licenced.

Likewise, Dr Spin and Andy Richards successfully pushed Hal Porteous out of the legal pot industry. Why? Because Andy Richards' security firm is now dealing in legalized pot. Dirty deeds done dirt cheap. The Hells Angels have just as much right to sell legal pot as Andy Richards does. So does Clay Roueche when he eventually gets out of prison for doing what they are now doing. Yet that is all past history. It is time to turn the page.

Let's take a look at what Clay has done since then. As I have previously said, Clay's arrest was illegal. They didn't charge him and extradite him. They rerouted his plane and arrested him on American soil when he was not scheduled to be on American soil. They didn't bother extraditing Randy Jones. They just removed his competitors for him.

Clay was placed in solitary confinement for two years. He didn't rat anyone out and he didn't join the rat out your rivals program. Unlike the local Cub Pack, that's not the way he rolls. He faced that challenge head on. While in solitary confinement, he wrote an inspiring book about Indominable Virtues. He also received a 6-year reduction in his sentence.

After he was finally released from solitary confinement he began painting. Then he had associates sell prints of his painting online. Some of which were sold at the Blue Lotus here in Guildford Mall. I bought prints of the Pheonix and the Dragon because I found them very inspiring and the colours were magnificent.

While in prison Clay met and befriended George Martorano, the longest-serving first-time non-violent offender who served over 32 years for pot. Pot is now legal in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, Oregon, South Dakota, Vermont, and Washington. While in prison Clay met and befriended Allen Strong.

While in prison Clay met and befriended heavyweight kickboxing legend Dennis Alexio and had the opportunity to train with him and interview him. Clay has an extensive martial arts background. He first obtained a blackbelt in Taekwondo. He then studied many other styles and continued to work with other boxers and martial artists in prison. Clay even formed his own style of martial arts called Combined Combat Systems or CCS.

Clay hired someone to revamp his website and put his inspiring artwork on T-shirts.

Clay has been very busy with a lot of positive things since his arrest and more news is on the way. Locally, Dr Spin is trying to blame Clay for the recent spike in gang violence. In reality, the spike in gang violence in his absence proves that Clay wasn't the problem. Someone else is.

People who ride

People who ride in BC don't sell drugs. The people who sell drugs in BC ride SUVs not motorcycles. One of the reasons there aren't any rival MCs in BC is because the people here who ride see the HAs as the real deal and see the others as wannabees or trouble makers. People here don't like wannabees and they don't like trouble makers.

That's not to say people here agree with killing Brandi or with gang raping sex trade workers on the Pickton farm because they don't. The HAs don't even agree with that. That's why they have to cover their tracks with lies. "We didn't kill Brandi, she committed suicide." No, she didn't. We all know what. "The HAs would never have anything to do with Robert Pickton." That's simply not true. Dave Pickton was an associate. Big Tony ran Piggy's Palace.

Nobody likes a liar. In the same way they don't like wannabees or trouble makers. It's the same thing. Liars are trouble makers. They create violence then try to hide it with lies. Usually, they get sorted out by the club. For example, Larry Mizen deserved what he got but so should have Lenny because Lenny hired Mizen. Letting drug dealers take all a sex trade workers money when she goes on a date is messed up. That is not acceptable. Enforcers were supposed to protect the ladies from abusive Johns. They're not supposed to brutalize the ladies who work for them.

Jesse used to run an afterhours across from the Pickton farm for when Roosters closed at night. It was high end. Piggy's Palace wasn't. It was a predatory cease pool of depravity. Jesse wasn't involved with that. Big Tony was. Jim Brown was a sexual deviant with the Coquitlam RCMP. Not all cops were gang raping sex trade workers with drug debts on the Pickton farm but some were. Dianne Rock was gang raped on the farm by bikers and cops.

Not all HAs were gang raping sex trade workers with drug debts on the farm either but some were and we need to face that. The Hells Angels ran the Surrey House of Horrors. We need to stop the lies. Lies create more violence. Confront the lies and you confront the violence.

As I previously said, now the violence is all about greed. That's all it is. We don't need to create more violence. We need to walk away and withdraw our support for the lies. That's all we need to do. Withdraw our support for the lies. Confront the lies and you confront the violence. Everyone wants the violence to stop. It's time to turn the page.

A Proclamation of Peace

I have three posts to make. One is about the current gang conflict, one is about people who ride and the other is about Clay Roueche. The other day I was feeling somewhat grateful. No matter how bad things get, they could always get worse so we always have something to be grateful for.

Today I'm feeling kind of humbled. Ya meet people who ride and they know people who ride and you share something. You recognize that this is a nice guy, who knows people and those people aren't bad people. In many ways they're just like everyone else. From a distance there is peace.

From a distance, there is harmony. I've been recognized a few times at the gym over the years. A while ago a really buff brown guy comes up to me and says I know who you are. It's OK I won't tell anyone. I kinda look at him like WTF and he says you do that blog. You're Kim Bolan's brother. That's when I had to laugh. I said yeah I do the blog. Everyone knows that. I don't advertise it but I'm not in hiding. Then I clarified, but I'm not Kim Bolan's brother.

She's in bed with the police I said. She hates me, the police hate me, the Hells Angels hate me - everybody hates me. I stand alone. He used to be involved in the life back in the day and starts expressing some of his concerns about how the new generation don't share the same values he had when he was in the game. We shared a lot of common beliefs.

Right now, we're witnessing greed. Greed kills. Like a forest fire buring out of control it consumes everything in its path include the host. There's no L&R. Just greed and betrayal. That all there is.

That's why I encourage people to leave the life. That's my mission. The reason I tell people who left the life not to cooperate with the police isn't because I hate cops. It's because I want them to have a legitimate chance at a fresh start. Don't walk away mad, just walk away. If you keep your mouth shut, they have no reason to kill you. It costs money you kill you and they rather keep the money. After all, it's all about the money. That's all it's about.

Naseen had a fist full of cash. It burned a hole in his pocket and it's all gone. Everyone knows that life is a dead-end street. Some people don't care. Others see the light and move on. They grow up. They become responsible. That is where the respect is - self-respect. That's something money can't buy. After all, a poor man is better than a liar. Mark my word.

Jason Kenney gets caught breaking his health rules

CTV is reporting that Jason Kennyy is coming under fire again from his own cabinet for getting caught breaking his own stupid Covid rules at a wine and dine on top of the Sky Palace in Edmonton. He should be coming under fire for making those stupid rules in the first place. Jason Kenney is not a Conservative. He's a fraud. Time to bring more accountability in the next leadership race to address voter fraud. Todd Loewen calls on Jason Kenney to resign.

Jury Selection for Larry Amero's trial has begun

Jury Selection for the Alkahil, Wiwchar, Amero conspiracy to commit murder trial is scheduled for today in Vancouver Supreme court. Ironically enough, their pals Cody Haevischer and Matthew Johnston are scheduled today in Vancouver Supreme court to fix a date to have their Surrey Six murder conviction thrown out because of an abuse of process. This is why Jamie Bacon was tried separately. I have to sort this out. It sounded like the Crown set their convictions aside like in the Bobsy twins who cooperated with the police. I don't know if this is a cover up yet.

Madam Justice Wedge dismissed the stay back in 2014. The 2018 decision isn't posted.

A 2021 decision has been posted. How do these clowns afford 7 lawyers? If legal aid is paying for 7 lawyers to appeal and appeal, that is an abuse of process.

Neil Cantrill's sentencing is still continuing in New Westminster today. Final decision July 16th. Gang colours are OK. Requesting court transcripts is not.

Tragically June 9th the Hadden-Watts case agsinst Kling Klung is in Kelowna.

Man known to the police injured in Langley shooting

CTV is reporting that " Mounties in Langley are investigating after a shooting that sent a man to hospital Sunday afternoon. Langley RCMP told CTV News Vancouver the call came in around 5:30 p.m., reporting shots fired in the 26200 block of 60th Avenue, a rural stretch of road north of Aldergrove. When officers arrived, they found the victim yelling and screaming in a ditch, police said, adding that he is a 50-year-old man who is known to police."

Police shootout in Merrit

City News is reporting that "A child, believed to be under the age of 12, and an adult have been seriously hurt after a dramatic police chase and shootout involving the RCMP in Merritt, according to B.C.’s police watchdog. The events unfolded Sunday at around 3:50 p.m. when Mounties tried to stop a white Ford F350 and trailer, which were believed to have been stolen. Both the child and adult were inside the vehicle." Why did an adult have a child with them in a stolen vehicle?

“The vehicle reportedly did not stop,” the Independent Investigations Office (IIO) of B.C. says. A short while later, at around 5:30 p.m., the IIO says police once again spotted the vehicle, this time on Highway 5 and without its trailer. “Police deployed a spike belt and eventually the vehicle stopped, but then continued travelling again before coming to a stop on Highway 8 near Snake Road and Highway 97C,” the RCMP says."

"Mounties say gunshots were fired or exchanged between the suspect vehicle and officers throughout the incident. Both the child and adult were taken to the hospital with serious injuries. The extent of those injuries is unclear at this time. Investigators say no one else was hurt."

"Gunshots were fired or exchanged between the suspect vehicle and officers throughout the incident." Fired or exchanged? Which is it? If someone is shooting at the police that is freaking serious. If the police are shooting at a vehicle, that's probably gonna want to make him run more. He should have stopped. I'm not disputing that. It just very sad a child was involved. They had no way of knowing a child was in the car. It's just very tragic.

Gina Carano uncancelled

There' been some talk on YouTube about Gina Carano getting uncancelled. There's also talk of George Lucas returning to Star wars. I was a Star Wars fan when it was George Lucas but when Disney took over it kinda lost it's glam. Disney has been highjacked by the CCP like Hollywood forcing people to seek out alternative venues. We need to protect our kids from the CCP.

I heard Star Wars fans say the Mandalorian was awesome but when they fired Gina Carano it put them on the dark side. It doesn't appear that Gina will be returning to the Mandalorian officially but Disney has uncancelled the popular Cara Dune action figure which was Gina's character on the Mandalorian. We're thrilled she's with the Daily Wire.

I haven't seen anything official on Gina's Twitter or on Drunk3PO's Youtube. All I'm going to say is that Gina Carano has more credibility than Disney. The girl has a brain. If you want to empower women, do it. Don't cancel women because they're smarter than you. Gina Carano could easily be the next James Bond. Cancelling her is just another example of fake feminism.

A little bit of displaced aggression

The Communist News Network is reporting that "The statue of Egerton Ryerson, one of the architects of the residential school system in Canada, was toppled and vandalized Sunday evening following a demonstration in downtown Toronto."

"The act occurred following a demonstration downtown in response to an announcement by the Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation on May 27 that preliminary findings from a survey conducted by a specialist in ground-penetrating radar indicated the remains of what could be 215 children buried on the site of a former residential school in Kamloops, B.C. 'The statue represents racism, the statue represent oppression. It should have been taken down a long time ago voluntarily by the Ryerson University, however that did not happen.' 'It's a little bit of justice I suppose for the Indigenous people, but not enough. It's just the beginning,' Fernando said."

That statue does not represent racism or oppression and vandalizing it is not a little bit of justice. It's a whole lot of displaced aggression. They're going to blame a Methodist minister for something the Catholic church did. That's what they refer to as kicking the cat. Blaming someone for something someone else did. This is how the far left keeps trying to rewrite history.

The same people that want to tear down statues of Christopher Columbus are the same people that are telling us that America has no borders and should remain open to the world.

Ideological Crackheads.

Police Shootout in Edmonton: Two charged - Update

The Edmonton Journal is reporitng that "Two brothers are facing a slew of charges after a shootout with Edmonton police Saturday afternoon that prompted an emergency alert. The two men were being pursued by police officers just after 12 p.m. for reports of a stolen vehicle at 218 Street and Stony Plain Road when the suspects rammed the vehicle into the police cruiser and fled west of the city into Parkland County."

"The suspects then turned off Highway 16A onto Secondary Grid Road 628 near Enoch Cree Nation and exchanged gunfire with an Edmonton police officer in an unmarked vehicle before fleeing the scene. After a search involving the police helicopter, RCMP officers and drones, the two suspects were located hiding in a nearby tree area and taken into custody."

"Ryan David Goebel, 32, is facing seven charges including assault with a weapon, unauthorized possession of a firearm in a vehicle, flight from a peace officer and operation of a motor vehicle while prohibited. Cody Gregory Goebel, 31, was the passenger in the vehicle and charged with assaulting a peace officer, discharging a firearm with intent to evade arrest and breaching conditions of a release order."

"Both men are also facing charges of theft under $5,000, unsafe transportation of a firearm and additional drug-related charges are pending. Cody Goebel was treated and transported to hospital with a non-life threatening gunshot wound and Ryan Goebel was taken to hospital for precautionary reasons. No officers were injured during the shootout."

Stolen car with a gun shooting at the PoPo. Can you say meth heads? Let's hope that's all it was. Later that night EPD capped a guy in North Edmonton.

Update: The Edmonton Journal is reporting that a semi-automatic shotgun was recovered from the scene and that "an Edmonton police officer exchanged fire with a man after tailing a vehicle with a stolen trailer, resulting in a non-life threatening gunshot wound to the man."

Montreal protests Health Restrictions

CBC, the ones that brought to you the false ICU numbers in Manitoba, is reporting that "More than a thousand people took part in a demonstration calling for the end of mandatory health measures in Montreal on Saturday afternoon." A lot more than a thousand people.

"Even though the city will move to an orange zone on Monday, meaning that gyms and indoor dining will reopen, people came out to denounce government restrictions and public health measures. One protester carried a sign which read make freedom legal again."

"Another sported the message 'my body, my choice.' Many protesters had different reasons for joining in the march. René Lajoie told CBC that he was there as a parent: I want my kids to be able to take their masks off at school." Children are NOT affected by Covid like ailing seniors.



I'm amazed CBC even reported it. They have been actively involved in reporting false numbers throughout the lockdown in support of the far-left agenda. Contrary to the longstanding French tradition of liberté, égalité, fraternité.

CBC and Post Media News have been lying about the numbers all along. Dr Vernon Coleman pointed out that during the Covid pandemic, cases and fatalities from the flu have vanished.

Dr. Hodkinson pointed out that during Covid, deaths from cancer and heart disease fell dramatically which proves those deaths were falsely attributed to Covid to maintain a false sense of hysteria. We were told that over 10,000 seniors died in care homes of Covid yet the same number of seniors died this year as last year and the year before. They lied.

Canada Health Alliance proclaimed that the PCR test is worthless to which the Portugal courts agreed. That court declared the PCR test worthless and lockdowns based on that test ilegal.

The results coming in from the States that have opened made the continuation of their lies statistically impossible. It's time for this ridiculous fraud to come to an end once and for all.

Dr Simone Gold said that stopping Covid with a mask was like stopping a mosquito with a chain link fence. The fake fact checkers funded by the Communist Party of China said that was untrue but Fauci's emails admit it is. His foundation funded the research on bats at the Wuhan lab.

Fatal shooting in South Vancouver

City News is reporitng that "Vancouver Police say a 44-year-old man died after shots were fired near a scenic and usually busy park in the River District Friday night. Police responded to calls of shots fired around 10:00 p.m. near Kent Avenue and Kerr Street. Alvis Anjesh Singh was found dead in his vehicle. A silver SUV with a sunroof was seen driving away east on Kent Avenue shortly after shots were heard. Police confirm a burnt-out SUV was found by J W Sexsmith Elementary School near West 59th Avenue and Ontario Street a few minutes later."

The police have already released the name of the victim: Alvis Anjesh Singh. It's strange how sometimes the police release the name of the victim instantaneously without allowing time to notify the family then withhold the name of others indefinitely. People have the right to know who is killed and the family deserves to be told first. South Van is usually HA rivals getting capped.

May 2000 Alvis was charged with drug trafficking.

Dr Spin claims Alvis was associated with the Independent Soldiers and the Brothers Keepers both of whom work for the Hells Angels although the IS barely exist. Now it's all Cub pack. Alis being affiliated with the IS and BK means he was involved with the Hells Angels so here we have yet another public shooting that involves the Hells Angels. Let me guess, more house cleaning. Not a rival. With friends like those, who needs enemies.

California's AR ban ruled unconstitutional

The Hill is reporitng that "A federal judge in California ruled that the state's ban on assault weapons is unconstitutional, a major defeat for gun control advocates as Democrats eye a federal prohibition on the same kind of guns. U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez of San Diego issued a 94-page ruling panning the 30-year-old ban as an overstep by the state government and a violation of the Constitution’s Second Amendment, likening the AR-15, a popular rifle, to a “Swiss Army Knife” that is “Good for both home and battle.”

“This case is not about extraordinary weapons lying at the outer limits of Second Amendment protection. The banned ‘assault weapons’ are not bazookas, howitzers, or machineguns. Those arms are dangerous and solely useful for military purposes,” Benitez wrote Friday. “Instead, the firearms deemed 'assault weapons' are fairly ordinary, popular, modern rifles. This is an average case about average guns used in average ways for average purposes.” Well said.

As Jesse Ventura said, the right to bear arms is not about hunting. Covid has shown us that.
