Canada has never been a sovereign nation. It’s never been sovereign.It’s never been a democracy.
It is a resource colony of the Anglo-American Empire.
It is a vassal state.
Right now Canada has become a toxic asset because of inflated housing prices that have destroyed the Canadian economy.
The entire Canadian economy is based on money laundering by the way.
So now that it is a toxic asset, what do you do?
Well, as a banker, right, Mark Carney is a banker.
You dump it off to foreign investors.
That is what you do.
That is the entire game plan, guys

Israeli agricultural exports face looming ‘collapse’ as world rejects products over Gaza genocide
…..(rxcerpt)
In recent months, Israel’s public broadcaster aired several reports on Israel’s massive problem in exporting fruits, particularly to European markets.Put out by Kan 11, the reports indicate what the growers themselves describe as a looming “collapse,” unwittingly testifying to the importance of the continuing international boycott of Israel.
Now Israel finds itself alongside Russia in the “alliance of the boycotted,” one report from the public broadcaster says. It’s hard to identify a single party responsible for this state of isolation, but Europe is a big part of the story.
“They don’t want our mangos,” a mango farmer tells Kan 11 in one of the reports. “In Europe, they talk to us only if they’re missing something. Only then do they buy from us. If they have an alternative, they avoid it.” …….Posted by: Exile | Jan 24 2026 11:41 utc | 244

I’ve read that freezing to death is a relatively gentle and pain-free way to go. So if any more half-frozen wild animals are found, the most humane approach might be to allow them to die in the cold, to avoid the pain of thawing frostbite.

ParticipantAnother Dead Citizen https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/another-dead-citizen
The man killed by a US Border Patrol officer in Minneapolis was an ICU nurse, family says
Family members say the man killed by a U.S. Border Patrol officer in Minneapolis on Saturday was an intensive care nurse at a Department of Veterans Affairs hospital who cared deeply about people and was upset by President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown in his city.
Alex Jeffrey Pretti, 37, was an avid outdoorsman who enjoyed getting in adventures with Joule, his beloved Catahoula Leopard dog who also recently died. He had participated in protests following the killing of Renee Good by a U.S. Immigration and Customs officer on Jan. 7.
“He cared about people deeply and he was very upset with what was happening in Minneapolis and throughout the United States with ICE, as millions of other people are upset,” said Michael Pretti, Alex’s father. “He thought it was terrible, you know, kidnapping children, just grabbing people off the street. He cared about those people, and he knew it was wrong, so he did participate in protests.”
Pretti was a U.S. citizen, born in Illinois. Like Good, court records showed he had no criminal record and his family said he had never had any interactions with law enforcement beyond a handful of traffic tickets...
..The Department of Homeland Security said that the man was shot after he “approached” Border Patrol officers with a 9 mm semiautomatic handgun. Officials did not specify if Pretti brandished the gun, and it is not visible in bystander video of the shooting obtained by The Associated Press.
Family members said Pretti owned a handgun and had a permit to carry a concealed handgun in Minnesota. They said they had never known him to carry it...
..Alex Pretti grew up in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where he played football, baseball and ran track for Preble High School. He was a Boy Scout and sang in the Green Bay Boy Choir.
After graduation, he went to the University of Minnesota, graduating in 2011 with a bachelor’s degree in biology, society and the environment, according to the family. He worked as a research scientist before returning to school to become a registered nurse. https://abc3340.com/news/nation-world/the-man-killed-by-a-us-border-patrol-officer-in-minneapolis-was-an-icu-nurse-family-says-01-24-2026Video from 2 angles: , He held a camera, and never drew any weapon. Was it a “throw-down” handgun? ICE mob beat him up on the ground after he tried to get between them and somebody else they were beating, then they shot him until he was good and dead as he tried to stand up. Alex “violently resisted arrest”, they said.

John Helmer (again) IN RUSSIA’S WAR OF CAPITAL WITH THE WEST, KIRILL DMITRIEV’S ROLE IS TO NEGOTIATE TERMS OF SURRENDER
A quarter of a century ago, President Vladimir Putin explained to President George W. Bush the way the warfighting world really works.
“There is a contradiction between a new, young, aggressive financial Islamic capital and the old one,” Putin said. “In reality, it is a financial issue. Religion is secondary. The real goal is to have a place in the centre of world finances, a place that is already occupied. They want to push away representatives of Jewish capital or, if not, they will try to destroy the centre and shake it up and, ultimately, in that way to take its place. The reason for the terrorism isn’t the Middle East or poverty. They use poverty and they use unresolved conflicts. They are using other problems. These problems are not the real reasons for terrorism…I raised this not just to support you, but to say that we all have fight in the same world.”
By Jewish capital, Putin was repeating the line he remembered from his Marxist-Leninist textbooks in which the capital of Russia’s enemies in Europe and the US was inter-connected and in which the ideology of religion always reflected the underlying class struggle between capital and labour. https://johnhelmer.net/in-russias-war-of-capital-with-the-west-kirill-dmitrievs-role-is-to-negotiate-terms-of-surrender/ Israel’s Netanyahu accepts Trump invitation to join proposed ‘Board of Peace’ on Gaza

If a man who’d never heard of Israel or Palestine were shown footage of the genocide in Gaza, he would reflexively recoil in horror and say what he was looking at was a bad thing. If somebody then ran up and explained to him that what he just said was actually a hateful act of religious persecution, he would be very surprised and confused. Because he hadn’t been indoctrinated into making that association, in the same way you haven’t been indoctrinated into associating criticism of the Indian government with an attack on the religion of Hinduism.
It’s a completely counterintuitive association. There’s nothing about it that that you could find your way into through your own observation and reasoning. It’s something you’d need to be taught by others. You need it to be explained to you.
That’s the literal translation of the Hebrew word “hasbara”. It means “explaining”. Israel and its supporters have spent decades “explaining” to the world that criticism of the state of Israel is actually a terrible hate crime against Jews and their religion, because otherwise it would never occur to a normal person that that is the case...
..There was a segment in last year’s Louis Theroux documentary The Settlers that stuck with me where Israeli settler leader Daniella Weiss refers to Zionism as a “magic system”.
“Jewish settlements in Gaza is a very difficult step that demands a lot of work,” Weiss told Theroux. “You have to influence the leftists, the government, the nations of the world, using the magic system: Zionism.” It isn’t surprising to learn that Weiss views her operations as a kind of magic. https://www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/the-magic-system-of-zionismJanuary 25, 2026 at 1:50 am #229040John Day

The Tag Team Fails in Iran, by John Mearsheimer
The mainstream media in the West is committed to portraying the protests in Iran as strictly an internal affair. The people of Iran, so the argument goes, spontaneously rose up against their government because they were in desperate straits due to their leaders’ corruption and mismanagement of the economy, as well as their oppressive policies. Virtually all the protestors in this story were peaceful, but their protests were met with government violence. Outside forces had little to do with causing the protests.
This interpretation of what happened in Iran is wrong and contradicted by an abundance of evidence. None of this is to deny that there were many peaceful protestors who had legitimate grievances against the government, but that is only part of the story.
If fact, what happened in Iran is an attempt by the Israeli & American tag team to overthrow the government in Tehran and break apart Iran, much the way the US, Turkey, and Israel fractured Syria. The playbook in Iran is one we have seen before. https://original.antiwar.com/john-mearsheimer/2026/01/20/the-tag-team-fails-in-iran/ Trump says US ‘armada’ moving towards Iran
