Washington wants to spend $5.7 BILLION on refugee assistance, nearly 3x pre-Biden levels. That’s fiscal insanity, we can’t keep going down this road at the expense of American taxpayers. https://t.co/M7Tk33HtI6
City News is reporting that "From historic arrests to a shooting outside a provincial jail, 2025 marked one of the most turbulent periods in decades for Montreal’s alleged Rizzuto crime family, with experts warning the fallout is far from over. 'No matter how many arrests you make, no matter how many jailings or convictions, the mafia will still live on,' said investigative journalist and author Julian Sher."
Julian Sher is probably one of the very few journalists out there with a brain. He wrote the Road to Hell which was landmark. Another factor that he hasn't mentioned is US and Canadian Intelligence Agencies support for the Rizzuto's rivals, the Calabrians out of Hamilton. This is one of the reasons Scott Burnstein's Original Gangsters Podcast has been demonizing Martin Roberts and glorifying Harley Quinn.
Locals speculate one of the reasons the FBI set up the Dirty News is because they were reporting on the BFM who are supported by the Rizzutos.
For the most part, the Quebec Hells Angels under Mom Boucher had historically supported the Rizzutos. The Ontario Village Idiots supported the Calabrians. That's what the beef between the Quebec Charter and the Ontario Hells Angels Nomads was.
Then the anglophone from Hamilton, Walter Stadnick, poisoned the Queebc chapter against the Rizutos and convinced them to start supporting the Calabrians. That's what created the war between the Quebec HAs and the BFM.
There must have been some push back because Martin Roberts had always been affiliated with the Rizzutos. That's why the FBI and their fake podcasts are attacking him and are supporting Satan's Suckers who are tied to the Wolf Pack and the Calabrians in Ontario. I don't support drug trafficking and organized crime but I recognize the Quebec Hells Angels have always had street cred while the Ontario Hells Angels have not.
I also respect the Dons and acknowledge that Vito Rizzuto was a Don. The Cub Pack and the Ontario Village idiots are clowns supported by the FBI. That's why law enforcement target rivals.
Wow. I made this post and it completely disappeared as did the link to the fake X account run by the government of India defaming the Dirty News Blogger. Here is the screen shot from the ridiculous claim on a fake account pretending to be the Dirty News. Read what it says. It doesn't make sense. I subscribe to his X. This post was never there. It's so ridiculous it's obviously someone impersonating him. Free 6ademiks.
In the post I made which was magically deleted I stated the obvious. The brothers keepers and bibo are rivals as are the Hells Angels and the former UN. No one would invite them all to a rally to keep the peace because they would all fight with each other and distract from the rally.
Also 6ademiks or any Khalistan supporter would never publicly invite gangs to a rally. The only person who would do that is an Agent of India trying to defame the Khalistan rally and defame the Dirty News blogger. Ask yourself why. It was posted on an agent of India's account pretending to be a proud Sikh. A proud Sikh would never defame the movement like that or a Khalistan supporter. It was obviously not the Dirty New blogger.
Dams are supposed to reduce flooding. You hold back water during the wet season and release it during the dry season. That reduces flooding and promotes farming. Modi is doing the opposite to create flooding and starve farming.
Gursewak Singh Bal of Mississauga, owner of @thedirtynews & an SFJ member, has now been exposed as a criminal accused of conspiracy to commit murder. His crime blog, seized by the FBI. He was working for drug lord Ryan Wedding, also known as “Snowboarder.” pic.twitter.com/x1NZzMzm4E
And here's the proof this is an Agent of the government of India. Look at the picture of the post they are falsely claiming the Dirty news blogger posted. I attended the Khalistan referendum rally in Surrey and saw their logo. They drew backlash for the logo because it had an AK 47 on it but if you look at the picture you can see what it meant. I mentioned it in my video at 1:30.
The AK 47 says India and has the colors of the flag of India on it. A hand with a pen was stabbing the barrel of the AK 47 saying Khalistan Referendum Yes. This clearly meant the pen is mightier than the sword and the ballot is mightier than the bomb or in this case the AK 47 the government used on the Sikhs.
The AK 47 represented the Sikh genocide executed by the government of India. The pen is denouncing that violence and responding to it with a pen in a referendum. There was nothing wrong with that logo. Now look at the altered logo on the fake X account. They took the word Referendum off and replaced it with Kill India. That was NOT their logo.
Someone intentionally altered the poster to defame the Khalistan Referendum and the Dirty News blogger. He did not post that altered poster. Someone else did. Ask yourself why.
I was looking for a graphic that describes how I feel and was trying to find one of a tired old man looking into the mirror very unenthusiastically blowing a party noise maker with the caption Happy New Year. Yeah, whatever. This one's a little too peppy but it's the closest I could find. Good luck is right.
A lot of people at work were commenting on how they have zero plans for New Years and are going to go to bed early. I guess that's what happens when you have to get up early for work every day. Young people are starting to feel old.
I was thinking about getting up early and go snowshoeing for the sunrise but dropped the ball. I didn't take any overtime over Christmas but signed up for a couple of overtime shifts over New Years. Time to get back to work and pay some bills.
A few lines from a couple of different songs come to mind. U2 All is quiet on New Years Day. It was nice no one got shot over Christmas locally. Then a line from Steven Tyler's Dream On comes to mind. "Every time that I look in the mirror. All these lines on my face getting clearer. The past is gone. Oh, it went by like dusk to dawn. Isn't that the way?"
In a couple of weeks I pick up my new motorcycle. I'm not going to ride this one full seasons. I'm going to keep it nice for my road trip when Trump leaves office. That'll give me time to prepare.
It's funny, when midnight struck I was fast asleep having a vivid dream. I dreamt I was at a shooting range camp. We were staying in dorms at night and target practicing at the gun range during the day. Then when midnight struck all the fireworks around us started to go off only it wasn't like other fireworks. These ones were different. Bang, bang, bang, bang.
In my dream I thought it was a mass shooter. I thought this was a stupid place to do a mass shooting. Everyone here is armed. Then I waited to hear him get taken out. Yet the shots continued and no one took him out. Bang, bang, bang, bang.
Then I thought am I really going to have to go to the gun safe and take this guy out? I waited to hear if there were any traumatic screams that accompanied the gunfire and I heard one. I was just about to head to the gun safe then I woke up and heard the fireworks so I laughed. This was only a drill.
I spoke with a coworker yesterday who is an American and supports Trump. He's also very familiar with Candace Owens. Previously he expressed concerns with the official version of the Charlie Kirk assassination and now he's like, I don't know what to think now. There are a lot of people out there who I thought were good who aren't. Nick Fuentes was one.
I mentioned how Nick was out to lunch on the Charlie Kirk assassination and he agreed leaving him somewhat concerned about the road ahead and who he could trust. I said a CIA or FBI plant will tell you nine truths to get you hooked on one lie. Nick has said several true things but is lying about the 30-06.
There are two factors on the table. The first is the fact that no two people agree on every issue. The other is the fact that the FBI and the CIA do send plants to infiltrate movements so they can lead them astray. QAnon was one example and Nick Fuentes is another. So is Alex Jones.
Alex Jones has always been a bit of a wing nut. He put out a really good video about the USS Liberty but has since completely flipped and has gone completely crazy. Claiming that Sandy Hook never happened was silly. That's like saying 9/11 never happened. Of course it did. We all saw it. Just because it was an inside job, doesn't mean it never happened.
Claiming that Sandy Hook never happened was extreme and Alex Jones lost a colossal defamation suit because of it. So now he's trying to make money by going on a deranged rampage against Candace Owens. We know that Charlie Kirk turned down a lot of money from Jewish Neo Con investors to support the Gaza genocide. Donors that Erika Kirk has welcomed with open arms. Alex Jones is trying to get a piece of that pie.
Charlie Kirk questioned the Gaza genocide and the October 7th Stand down Order. So do Jews in Israel who have served in the military guarding that border. All this crazed drama about one of Candace Owens' sources on one of her points is a distraction from that fact. Charlie Kirk was not shot with a 30-06. It doesn't matter how many times they say he was. That lie is ridiculous as are these other obvious distractions.
Another person my coworker is disappointed in is Ben Shapiro. Ben helped set up an alternate news outlet and supported Gina Carano. Yet Ben Shapiro's true colors have been revealed and his defiant support of a Neo Con in Israel and for the Gaza genocide shows how pathetic his small man syndrome bully tactics really are. So the whole purpose of his independent news outlet was to lead people astray. We can see that now.
Ben Shapiro went on a bizarre tirade saying that no one should retire ever. Reinforcing my previous concern about Neo cons wanting to raise the age of retirement. We don't need to go from reckless spending to reckless cuts. We need to stop the reckless spending first. Now many Americans on social media are calling for a tax revolt. That is straight up CIA QAnon.
We all drive on roads built with tax dollars. We all use schools, hospitals, fire departments and police departments. We all have to pay some tax. How much tax is up for debate and what those taxes are spent on is. Low taxes are good. Small government is good but no politician is going to work for free. No police officer or fireman is going to work for free either.
The reason why Trump is pushing for Netanyahu's pardon is because the Jewish protests against him in Israel continue as is the corruption court case. Not to mention his obvious involvement in the Oct 7th attack which has been confirmed by his financial ties to Qatar. Jews in Israel know that.
Tucker Carlson is just another Alex Jones. He'll tell you nine truths to get you hooked on one lie. Tucker Carlson supports Qatar just like Nick Fuentes supports the 30-06 narrative. These people are plants sent in to lead people astray.
Candace Owens isn't a plant. She has opinions and no two people agree on every opinion. With Tucker Carlson, Ben Shapiro and Nick Fuentes, it goes far beyond a simple difference of opinion. Those three are plants sent to lead people astray. It's as obvious as Shawn Ryan's ties to the CIA. All their rage and denial can't change that. So we do have a hopeful future as long as we can see through the lies and navigate around them. Mind how ya go. Steer clear of the icebergs.
Somalia and the UN are freaking out over Israel's public recognition of a Somali breakaway called Somaliland. So why is an Israeli Neo Con supporting an Islamic State again? Some are worried he wants to relocate the inhabitants of Gaza there.
I guess eviction is better than genocide but it's still a defiant violation of Moses' commandment to vex not the stranger that sojourneth with thee. Theft is very ungodly.
We are reminded of the private company in Israel filled with Intelligence officers from Mossad that bragged about fixing elections all over Africa. That is illegal foreign interference. Fixing elections is ungodly. So is genocide.
The York Regional Police are reporting that "Investigators with the York Regional Police Major Projects Unit have charged four men and two women after seizing 102 kilograms of cocaine, a loaded firearm and over $135,000 in cash following a three-month investigation."
"Between October and December 2025, nine search warrants were executed at four residences and five storage lockers across the cities of Toronto, Vaughan and Barrie, as well as the towns of Espanola and Innisfil. An additional search warrant was executed at the Beaver Creek Institution in the Town of Gravenhurst. As a result of the search warrants and seizures, multiple charges were laid."
Ontario makes another drug bust. BC doesn't. Repeat.
Once again the mentally deranged frenzy rages on. Alex Jones has completely lost his mind and is providing yet another circus side show distraction for the Neo Con take over of Israel and the United States. Trump is still pushing for Netanyahu's pardon. That is organized crime. There is a huge difference between supporting Israel and supporting a devious Neo Con who benefited from the murder of Yitzhak Rabin. Neo Cons are bad. It doesn't matter what country or religion they're from.
Neo Cons use false flag attacks to justify removing civil liberty and turning everyone into slaves. Far left and far right are the same thing. Then you have the toxic frenzy of rage and denial all over social media. Charlie Kirk was not shot with a 30-06.
So let's keep a eye on this CSIS Op and see how it unfolds in 2026. Since when does the mainstream media ever speak favorably about a MC? Since never. That's the first red flag.
Add that to the fact that Sam Cooper the CSIS spokesperson speaks highly of them and it becomes obvious. Then add Scott Burnstein from the Original Gangsters Podcast and it's undisputable. Scott Burnstein is as CIA as Shawn Ryan. When Sam Cooper and Scott Burnstein both speak highly of the Satan's choice MC then it's definitely a CSIS Op.
Satan's Choice - "I choose Satan." Yeah, well I don't. That is retarded. Since when did the mainstream media openly promote Satanism? I guess they do now. This CSIS Op is ridiculous.
I went snowshoeing on Seymour this morning. This is the sunrise from Brockton Point. There was blue sky on one side and a very dark cloud that passed over on the other side.
Visibility after First Peak was a bit sketchy and the trail wasn't very well traveled so I stopped just past First peak. First hike of the season I need to ease into it. Nice to see the snow again.
The snow was very nice. Two weeks ago there was almost no snow. Today was awesome. Just as I was coming down from First peak three ladies from Ireland were coming up. One was from Dublin and the other two were from Monaghan county.
If you want to get a parking spot you have to go early. They don't open the road up the mountain until 7:00 AM and I was there at 7:05. They make the snowshoers park down by the toboggan run so if you get there late you have a very long hike up from the parking spot to the beginning of the hike.
You also need to get a free parking pass online before you go. Cypress doesn't require one. I think Seymour uses them to regulate parking. I was heading down the mountain just after noon and the line to go up the mountain was crazy.
I had mentioned that I bought a new copy of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and am rereading it to see how I relate to it now that I am older and I think I have to make a few clarifications right up front from the get go.
I had always said that book had a profound influence on my life growing up although I don't think I ever read it. I liked motorcycles and I liked Zen. I think that's as far as I took it.
As for a complicated definition of quality, I don't think that ever entered my mind. I do remember the beginning of the book which talked about how when you are driving a car you experience your surroundings from the outside like you are watching them on TV. While on a motorcycle you are in the frame experiencing it first hand.
In my mind that was impressive. That was living the dream. Robert Pirsig added a more complicated literary and philosophical twist which can ad to or distract from the journey.
For example, I recently mentioned how in the introduction to the 25th anniversary edition of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance Robert Pirsig mentioned how things can be hidden from the reader when the book is written from the First Person narrative. This is where we get into literary works as opposed to motorcycle journeys.
In that movie they conducted an experiment. They hooked the riders up to electrodes and measured their brainwaves. They discovered that as you ride a motorcycle, other distractions or worries tend to disappear and you tend to focus exclusively on the road ahead. This is why wind therapy is good for processing trauma. That's about as far as I go with it.
I'm not on a Monty Python quest for the meaning of life because I found it. Life is simple. Be good, do good. As you sow so shall ye reap. Life does not end at death. Families are important. No other success compensates for failure in the home.
Our greatest joy in life can be found in spending time with our family. That's not to say people who are single and don't have kids can't experience joy. Not at all. Be good, do good. Martin Luther King said anyone can be great because anybody can serve. When we serve others we forget our problems and become healed. So it's really that simple.
Zen can apply to anything - Buddhism, Christianity, even the game of Tennis. The inner game of tennis was simply a text about right brain versus left brain in sports.
As for Buddhism, Buddha was a rich kid who left the ivory tower and saw suffering in the world. As a result he was filled with compassion. Thus the term the compassion of Buddha. There's no conflict or struggle between Buddhism and Christianity. The golden rule exists in all religions.
Kal Dosanjh recently made a post on Linkedin of a group of small minded white guys doing a deranged version of the Haka in the face of a Sikh gathering. It was very disturbing because they appeared to claim to be Christian but their actions were far from it. First of all the Haka comes from Maori tradition. Those while trash expropriated it for a bad purpose.
Second of all, Christ said love your neighbor. When asked who is my neighbor he gave the parable of the Good Samaritan. Christ chose someone from a different race and a different religion the locals hated. Then said this guy did good. He is a better neighbor than you are. I have a hard time with Christian intolerance. It's very hypocritical.
The book Zen and the Art is an inquiry into values. You don't need to have a religion to have morals. The purpose of religion is to aspire to something higher and raise our morality.
Obviously I would see the struggle Robert Pirsig mentioned between Phaedrus and the Narrator as a profound allegory of the mainstream media and I'm going to set the schizophrenia thing aside because that's far beyond me. Life is simple and so am I. Ride hard, die free. Don't let life pass you by.
The professor talked about how a second completely different interpretation was also plausible. Robert said he had to reread the book to see it. He explains how things can be hidden from the reader if the book is written in the First Person narrative. The first person only tells you what they want you to see.
He states that in the book Turn of the Screw, the reader does not see that the governess is the villain not the hero because what the governess sees is all the reader ever sees. It's very interesting. Then he relates it to his story about Phaedrus which I obviously haven't read. It also relates to our present political climate of misdirection. History is written by the victors.
Pirsig mentions the Hollywood ending in his book and states "In the intended ending it is not the narrator who Triumphs over a villainous Phaedrus. It is an honorable Phaedrus who triumphs over the narrator who has been maligning him all the time."
"In Phaedrus's view the narrator is a sellout, a coward, who has abandoned truth for popularity and social acceptance. He sees that the narrator doesn't want to be honest any more, just an accepted member of the community, bowing and accommodating his way through the rest of the years."
"Phaedrus was dominated by intellectual values. He didn't give a damn who liked or didn't like him. He was single mindedly pursuing a truth he felt was of staggering importance to the world. The world had no idea of what he was trying to do and it was trying to kill him for his trouble. For more on the real Phaedrus, who is not a villainous ghost but rather a mild mannered hyper intellectual let me recommend Lila, a sequel that has been properly understood by a few."
Wow, Robert Pirsig wrote a sequel called Lila which examines life's essential issues as he recounts the journey down the Hudson River in a sailboat of his philosopher-narrator Phaedrus. Awesome. I just ordered it. Zen and the Art was written in 1974. That was over 50 years ago. Lila was written in 1991.
My kids are trying to teach me how to use Chat GPT. AI can be a useful tool to learn languages but it does frighten me.
I used to know someone who lived for Christmas and played Christmas music all year long. For many years I couldn't listen to Christmas music. When it would come on in the grocery store I would cringe. It was like nails on the chalkboard for me.
There were some I liked. I enjoyed TSO and I liked I hear the bells on Christmas Day. Yet there was a very long time when I just couldn't listen to the old familiar carols they play. I like the instrumental. That's not so offensive. It's more soothing. I enjoy classical music and the symphony.
In Colombia they celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve and on Christmas Day they dance salsa for three days. That's not really my thing but that it their wholesome tradition that makes Christmas real for them. Just like shrimp on the barbie at the beach in Australia. The intent of Christmas is peace on earth, good will to men and it's easy to lose that in the confusion that surrounds Christmas. Aspire to something higher. Do good, be better. There's nothing wrong with that.
I guess the reason I've been going on and on about Christmas this year is because when they try and take something away from you, you become very protective of it.
It's like when England started persecuting the Catholic church in Ireland. What do you mean I can't go to mass? Yes I can. If England had just left them alone the church would have faded out of relevance but as soon as they banned it, that created a knee jerk reaction to defend it.
All the sexual assault cases were great and abominable but that can happen anywhere. Even with hockey coaches. We need to be vigilant in protecting children from abuse.
Kash Patel's hypocrisy is astounding. Right after he censored and buried the Epstein files for Donnie, he announced charges against a new pedophile. The wrong shall fail, the right prevail with peace on earth, good-will to men. Despite the defiant abominations of Donald Trump and Netanyahu.
Something feels a bit off this Christmas and it's not what you think. I remember when my daughter was very young she casually mentioned how she could relate to the Green Day song Boulevard of broken Dreams and it broke my heart.
Sometimes life doesn't work out the way we had hoped and not until time passes can we see that it was for the best. I'm not talking about death. That's always going to leave an emptiness.
The majority of my family have passed away and that makes Christmas very different. So we do our best to try and carry on those traditions. Sometimes we succeed, sometimes we fail but we always try. We always do our best.
My daughter commented on an ap that tracks your screen time and she was shocked how many hours a day she spent scrolling on her phone so she started to read books like she used to. That's a good use of free time.
So I bought two new books. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and a 501 French Verbs dictionary. I want to start sharpening up my French vocab. My kids speak so many languages, I need to improve. I admire their gift.
I always talk about the book Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and how it had such a profound influence on my life yet to be perfectly honest, I'm not sure if I've ever read it. Certainly not cover to cover. I usually take selected pieces and find my own hidden meaning. So this year I'm going to reread that book and reflect on what it means to me now.
I often quote the title page because I find that most significant. Yet in the introduction to the 25th Anniversary of the book I find a sincere reflection. He said instead of basking in the huge success of the book which would defeat it's purpose, he wanted to write about the book's failures and try to correct them.
As we reflect on our successes and failures in life perhaps that kind of brutal honesty will lead us to where we really wanted to go all along. He mentions the Hollywood ending of the original book and how that wasn't the original intent.
Then he adds a Zen twist and I'm like well done. As a parent all you want in life is for your kids to be happy. Setbacks occur and the road changes directions yet we do our best to keep moving forward. One time in my life I adopted the saying no turning back because it was appropriate at that time.
In Anna Nalick's song Breathe (2 AM) she states "you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable And life's like an hourglass glued to the table No one can find the rewind button, girl So cradle your head in your hands And breathe, just breathe."
"There's a light at each end of this tunnel you shout Cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again If you only try turning around" so breathe and move forward. That's how we grow.
We shouldn't dwell on our mistakes lest we repeat them but we should recognize them so we can make course corrections in our future journey. The key is to make the course correction and forgive yourself so our mistakes don't hold us back like sandbags on a hot air balloon. Turn the helm and lift anchor.
I don't really have a Christmas Epiphany this year but then again, of course I do. I know a lot of people out there are scared. A lot of people are discouraged and pessimistic. Some are even considering MAIDS. The cost of housing is frightening.
I always try to look at the bright side of life. Walk in the light so to speak. My parents sent me a poster on my mission of a workhorse pulling a cart in a blizzard. The caption read when the going gets tough, the tough get going. Indeed they do.
Gentlemen may cry peace peace but the war has already begun. So let's talk about the war of words that seeks to lead men astray into slavery and captivity and let's talk about that guiding light that leads men out of darkness and captivity into the light and freedom we were created to enjoy.
At Christmas we celebrate the birth of Christ. Christ experienced sorrow. He was born in a stable. Isaiah 53 states "He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not."
Psalms 118:3 states "The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner." The chief cornerstone which lays the foundation for not only the church but for our lives. The wise man built his house upon the rock.
The rock of our redeemer. That "when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall." All men can fall but if we build our lives on a solid foundation the Devil's shafts in the whirlwind will not have power over us to drag us down to the Gulf of misery.
So if we see the big picture like Elijah did, we will realize that they that be with us are more than they that be with them. There's more good people out there than bad and I don't care what religion you belong to if any.
As the title page to the book Zen and the Art of motorcycle Maintenance declares, "And what is good, Phaedrus, And what is not good. Need we ask anyone to tell us these things?” No we do not. We all know. So let's be honest with ourselves and each other. Let's use our discernment in the sea of lies to see where we want to go then head in that direction. Peace.
