Andrew Scheer has a problem

This is a must-read with themes that bear repeating over and over and over, some obvious and some not.

I was particularly struck by this paragraph because Scheer, Rempel and his band of merry racists were flat out lying -- or too stupid to read the Global Migration Compact -- when they tweeted about how it would destroy the fabric of Canada, overrule its sovereignty and allow any and all in which, of course, are all lies:

In fact, the UN agreement is a non-binding, unenforceable framework for international co-operation on coping with migrants, mostly on innocuous matters like collecting and sharing data on migrants, standardizing documentation and recognizing migrants’ qualifications and skills. Yet it has been turned into a stalking horse for paranoid attacks from the right.>

Bottom line: In a deplorable tweet Vice President Mike Pence makes the despicable and false claim that Democrats are advocating for “late term abortion and even infanticide.”

Canada’s gun lobby President goes crazy, compares gun safety advocate to a Nazi

The gun lobby is just as crazy as the NRA.

North99 Staff April 14, 2019

Rod Giltaca, President of Canada’s leading gun lobby the Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights (CCFR) compared a gun safety advocate to Nazi Joseph Geobells.

Giltaca deleted the tweet but a screenshot was preserved.

The tweet came in response to a gun activist posting a Washington Post article explaining how Canada’s gun lobby orchestrated a campaign to attack and discredit members of the Canadian Doctors for Protection from Guns, a grassroots organization of doctors working to strengthen Canada’s gun laws.

Giltaca’s comments were heavily criticized online, with users pointing out how his message diminished the 6 million Jews killed in the holocaust.

On the heels of the recent trailer, DC Universe has released a couple of new promo posters for the upcoming Swamp Thing live-action series.

Though they were glimpsed very briefly in the teaser, this artwork gives us a first proper look at series leads Abby Arcane (Crystal Reed) and Alec Holland (Andy Bean) in the process of being absorbed by the swamp's mystical vegetation

We recently found out that cameras had stopped rolling on Swamp Thing prematurely, and that the show will only air 10 of its originally scheduled 13 episodes. Despite what appear to be some pretty significant behind-the scenes problems, it is still in track for its May 31st premiere.

Swamp Thing” centers on CDC researcher Abby Arcane (Reed). When she returns to her childhood home of Houma, Louisiana, in order to investigate a deadly swamp-borne virus, she develops a surprising bond with scientist Alec Holland — only to have him tragically taken from her. But as powerful forces descend on Houma, intent on exploiting the swamp’s mysterious properties for their own purposes, Abby will discover that the swamp holds mystical secrets, both horrifying and wondrous — and the potential love of her life may not be dead after all.

Swamp Thing is being developed as a one-hour show, and has Mark Verheiden (Battlestar Galactica) and Gary Dauberman (It) on board to write the pilot. They'll also executive produce alongside Michael Clear and James Wan. Len Wiseman will helm the first episode.

Rage would be good from all Canadians, no one should be living under serviced. Reconciliation would mean returning resources and land management to the rightful owners, First Nations across the country would be able to have all the amenities and services, because instead of colonial companies stealing their riches, they could profit from their resources and manage them as they see fit. This patriarchal colonial set up, has to go.
