PLOWED IN

Snowplows … I know they have to clear the streets, but leaving a 2 to 3-foot wall of snow is not acceptable. I cleaned off my vehicle and was ready to go out when I was plowed in. I am 74 years old and really don’t want to shovel this. How do I get out in case of emergency, mine or my friend’s? Why are driveways not cleared when the road is plowed? I should not be held captive in my house just because it has snowed?

(This happens every year when there is heavy snow and the city doesn’t ever seem to listen to residents’ concerns about this)

GULF OF AMERICA

So, Donald Trump can proclaim a change of name for the Gulf of Mexico and Google accommodates the request. Can Canada proclaim the United States as “Crapland”? It has a beautiful ring to it and covers a lot of ground! I can’t wait to see the new maps.

DEMOCRAT BLUE

Trump should consider the ramifications of annexing Canada and creating a 51st state. The populations of every province — save possibly Alberta — would consistently vote Democrat. With Alberta comprising about 12% of Canada’s population, that would translate, at least potentially, to 88% of Canada’s votes supporting a Democrat as president. Harris lost by approximately 2.3 million votes (roughly 2 percentage points). Be careful what you wish for, President Trump. Canada could end up being your worst nightmare, politically!

A.I.

So, Justin Trudeau was off on another taxpayer-funded jaunt to Europe. This time to express his opinions on the future development of A.I. We can be assured that Canada was well represented given that he and his Liberal government have proven to be one of the greatest sources of artificial intelligence the world has ever seen.
