CIBC: "In this economy?" ๐Ÿ’ธ

Also CIBC: holds apartheid State of Israel government bonds while sponsoring the killing of children in Gaza.

Apparently "in this economy?" means groceries are unaffordable, but coups, dispossession and forever wars remain profitable.

None of Canada's political parties has prosperity as its organizing objective. They disagree about how to distribute, tax and administer scarcity. Nobody is campaigning to abolish the scarcity.

๐ŸŒ In retrospect, Bill Gates was almost an IBMer.

Follow the Money warns that transparency without joinability is opacity. ๐Ÿงฉ๐Ÿ” In the IBM-Microsoft story, a pile of PCs can look decentralized while the license, standard, and distribution links still point upward. https://LifeLog.felineunion.org

Alberta oil & gas royalties โ†’ Heritage Savings Trust Fund โ†’ Heritage Scholarship Fund โ†’ UWC scholarship program โ†’ Chrystia Freeland to Italy at 16 โ†’ Harvard โ†’ Oxford.

So yes, Alberta's oil wealth helped finance Freeland's entry into the elite credential pipeline.

Turns out Alberta really did build the pipeline to the Liberal establishment. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Alberta oil helped pay Chrystia Freeland's way into the international credential pipeline at 16:

Edmonton, one year apart. ๐Ÿ‘€

1983: Mark Carney leaves Edmonton โ†’ Harvard ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ
1984: Chrystia Freeland leaves Edmonton โ†’ UWC boarding school in Italy ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น, funded by an Alberta government scholarship.

Neither would attend a Canadian university.

Two teenagers. Same city. One year apart. Two launches into the international elite-education pipeline.

Wexner explains Epstein's later access to an enormous balance sheet. He does not satisfactorily explain where Epstein's operating model came from.

Academia isn't above the class war. It's one of its institutions.

It credentials the managers, legitimizes the system, defines "acceptable" knowledge, and guards the gates to professional power.

Academia participates in class warfare.

And it's not on our side.

๐ŸŽ“ Class dismissed.

Dual citizenship should disqualify you from holding federal or provincial public office.

You can be a dual citizen. You can vote. You can live here. You keep every ordinary right of citizenship.
But exercising the sovereign power of the Canadian state should require one citizenship and one political allegiance.

Public office isn't a right. It's a position of public trust with conditions attached.

Two passports? Fine.

One public office? Pick one. ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

Ukraine and Iran just demonstrated the same lesson at two different scales, and somehow Canada learned the exact opposite lesson. ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿช–

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Ukraine: multimillion-dollar tanks meet cheap drones costing thousands. Persistent surveillance + FPVs turned massed armour from the centerpiece of manoeuvre warfare into an increasingly vulnerable liability.

Canadian lesson: BUY NEW TANKS. ๐Ÿค‘

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Iran / Middle East: missiles and drones demonstrate the economics of saturation. The attacker can launch relatively cheap, numerous weapons while the defender needs sensors, bases, crews and expensive interceptors, and has to keep paying every time the attacker sends another wave.

Canadian lesson: BUILD BILLION-DOLLAR AIR DEFENCE. ๐Ÿค‘

See the pattern?

$5,000 threat โ†’ protect the $10,000,000 machine.
Cheap swarm โ†’ build the $1,000,000,000 shield.
Shield can be saturated โ†’ buy more interceptors.
Still vulnerable โ†’ add another defensive layer.

The battlefield keeps demonstrating dispersion, quantity, cheap autonomous systems and asymmetric economics.

The procurement system keeps hearing:

"Excellent argument for another billion dollars."

At some point you have to wonder whether Canada is studying modern warfare or running a military-industrial loyalty-points program.
