In a racially diverse country, what is the point of the Olympics? Why cheer for athletes who do not feel like a real part of your nation? However, the thrilling hockey showdown between Team USA and Canada was a reminder of the way things used to be. Yet even this can seem hollow, especially to Canadians, whose government seems to have settled on anti-white animus as something approaching a national identity.

  1. Not until the white man realizes that the three mongrels–Moses-Jesus-Marx got his nations/societies into this multi-interracial egalitarian-humanitarian mess, can any real progress be made towards creating a better world. You’ve heard of ‘the three musketeers’ right?…well know you’ve heard of ‘the three mongrels’.

  2. In a racially diverse country, what is the point of the Olympics?

    Is Mexico (or any Latin American country) a real nation?

    Almost everyone in Mexico is “Brown”; But, almost every Mexican that did anything that matters to Civilisation (excluding Entertainment, such as Music or Sports) is either entirely White or almost entirely White.

    To me, that’s a rather sad paradox…

  3. Greg, is there anything that struck you about the Team Canada uniform? Just step back for a moment and ponder the colour scheme, ha ha ha. Ha ha…

    As the playwrite Chekhov declared; show don’t tell. Just noticing.

    I have never in my life seen so many Canadian hockey players shoot at the net and miss. These guys practice their entire lives, they can bounce a puck off the side, off the goalie’s skate or glove, off another player’s stick, they can hit the corners of the net 100 times out of 100 in practice. And then in the most important game of the Olympics, for Canadians, they take shot after shot after shot, and miss the fucking net entirely. Once when the side of the net was entirely open and the player had a clear shot.

    Almost like they were paid to lose.

    When visiting dozens of Mexican and Caribbean and Latino resorts I always notice that the Managers are white or lighter skinned and the bottom level house maids and gardeners and field workers are the most black. There is always a hierarchy.

  6. I remember way back in 1968 when black athletes gave the black power salute during awards ceremonies at the Mexico City Olympics. But, hey, we’re all Americans, right?

  7. Nice to see an article about Canada; they are almost 40 mil up there now. Also there press is extremely left wing and censored heavily as their libel laws and free speech laws are very different than ours. They are almost a Stalinist prison camp of fear to speak out on anything contentious including the fact that almost all of their daily papers are owned by an American Jewish outfit and nothing critical of Israel makes it into any paper. I grew up on the north border and spent half my life going back and forth between the US and Canada and I wrote my graduate thesis on the political and cultural similarities and differences between us and them. This podcast while a nice attempt amounts to about a 2 out of 100. The US forgets the fact that Canada still is de jure a British Colony and with the Quebec/French issue and the many diverse regional differences and the American influence Canadians have never had a real political culture like ours. Lastly any first year Poli Sci student always has to write an essay: compare and contrast the powers of the Prime Minister with those of the President and throw in a few ideas about Canada’s constitutional monarchy and parliamentary system vs our Presidential Republic system ( including the fact that the PM has to face the music daily in Parliament and Cabinet Ministers up there have to be elected first as MP’s and their Senate is appointed only etc etc. And a minor hint regarding Hockey: it is a paid parental sport, unlike soccer or football or basketball etc which is subsidized through the school system. Also Hockey moms are famous up there for driving their kids to practice in the morning before school and it is rudely expensive , hence few black players…even though Canada is now on the verge of becoming a black shit hole.

    Nice try but you clearly know nothing about hockey or sports or Canadian culture. Firstly look at the first 5 minutes of that game. The Canadians were playing more not to loose than to win. Secondly the American goalie was good and he was giving the Canucks a complex….also Goalies today are much better than in the past and their size and equipment make it harder to score. Going back to the beginning the pressure got to Canada…the Americans with their 10 times the population have now achieved parity with Canada in hockey …but the onus is still on Canada and their superior Junior A hockey system to win. McDavid chocked and he should have scored on that last drive. That pressure got to them but with Mario Limieux and Wayne Gretzky and Paul Coffey from the last generation they would have scored and Canada would have won Canada is now second best.

    In club games and high school games, it’s amazing how many open nets are missed. No matter how much you practice. But, as I was told as a young man, if there’s a lot of money on the game, it’s fixed. Now with all the betting apps on top of everything else, there might not be a legit game over little league. Usually it’s the refs, or officials, who make obviously bad calls. The NFL used to call ghost penalties against anyone playing the Chiefs because they wanted to make their mulatto QB a hero. A baseball pitcher is under indictment right now for throwing single pitches for bets. It’s all a racket. But I still enjoyed the American win.

    It’s interesting. Until this was explained by somebody in the comment section of a “Letterkenny” clip on Youtube involving the rich hockey boys, I had an idea in my head of lumberjacks playing on frozen lakes, but it seems to be about how many thousands of hours on artificial ice your parents can pay for.

    I don’t take a sustained interest in any sport, but I’m fascinated by these sporting enclaves which still look like America or Canada in 1950 or 1980. Hockey. Lacrosse, played in pockets of what’s still identifiable not only as America but as historic regional Americana (upstate New York etc). Non-basketball women’s sport, the talent pipeline created by suburban white athletic dads volunteering to coach and chauffeur their daughters’ teams. NCAA middle distance running – 800 and 1500m women’s championships, which I’d have thought would be East African by now, mostly Anglo/Irish/German Americans. Too obvious in NCAA distance medley relay where the 400m runners (all black – blessing of diversity) hand off to nearly all-white (therefore needing internal diversity) runners for 800m and up.

    In addition to what you accurately stated: How can Mexico compete well in the Olympics when practically every Mexican who can run, jump or swim is in the USA?

    I was in Sherbrooke back during September 1995 when the independence referendum came within a hair of winning. I wonder what path an independent Quebec would have taken with regards to the great issue of our era, race and immigration. Independence would have given them a chance to dodge the disaster that the Canadian government has inflicted. But then perhaps Quebec would have foolishly welcomed immigrants too – so long as they are from French-speaking places. There is that school of thought that says that you are ‘one of us’ if you are Francophone. How stupid. Race is assigned no meaning, but language rules supreme. I think that kind of suicide is the path Quebec would have taken if independent.

  16. @Anonymous

    Captain of the USA team, Auston Matthews, an NHL superstar, is half Mexican. His mom is an immigrant from Hermosillo, Mexico.

    Being ‘Mexican’ does not identify a race or genealogy. Like modern America, Mexico is a multi-racial civilization; unlike say, Japan. Most (but not all) Mexicans are of a mixed race background which is primarily Asiatic but partly Spanish (European). They are called mestizos. This population represent the majority of Mexican inhabitants. In many respects, Mexico’s diverse racial mixture mirrors modern America.

    Keep in mind that, before WWII, the US was tacitly considered a White country with just a small, distinct and very separate negro minority. In addition to that, there was a mostly-invisible population of ‘native Americas’ (formerly called ‘Indians’.) who were rarely seen outside of TV westerns. Most White Americans were very happy with this arrangement. But things changed in the 1960s and beyond. That old-fashioned perception of America being a White country is now denounced as racist and even ‘white supremacist’. Meanwhile, US aid to the segregated Jewish colony in Israel shall not be questioned. These double standards are striking.

    Anyway, there are millions of Mexicans who are 100% European just as there are a good many ‘Mexican-Americans’ who similarly possess only European DNA.

    I lived in Canada for 16 years. I learned the hard way that there is no freedom of speech in Canada. In fact, my Canadian professor made it quite clear that Canadians believe in group rights over individual rights — which is just another way of saying that Canadians do not believe that free speech is important. And after I departed Canada for good in 1996, freedoms were shrunk even more in the culturally Marxist (fake) nation. There is not one truly conservative politician in Canada. There is not one genuinely conservative newspaper, magazine or news outlet in all of Canada. Multiculturalism is official government policy — which makes the Jew community of Canada happy indeed. Finally, the vast majority of white Canadians are conformist, secular, milquetoast and woke by nature. They don’t care that whites in Canada will be a minority within 50 years. White Canadians don’t care that almost all of Canada’s 500,000 (per annum) immigrants are not white and not Christian.

  18. I learned the hard way that there is no freedom of speech in Canada.

    I keep hearing this, yet the Supreme Court of Canada ruled, over 35 years ago, the Ernst Zundel had the right to deny the Holocaust. We actually have communists running for office, and some have been elected, something that could never happen in the US.
    It’s not the Constitution, which is a whole different can of worms, it’s the stupid effing politicians passing the laws. A couple of years back, one of the Con-job-servatives introduced a bill to make Holocaust “denial” a criminal offense. I contacted the moron posing as my Now Dumbshit Party Member of Parliament, who supported the bill, to remind him of the Supreme Court rulings. He essentially accused me of being an Auntie Shem-ite for not supporting the bill.
    Just as in the US, the political class doesn’t care what you think post election.
    There are plenty of problems in Canada, but they have arisen more from the changes to the political parties themselves wanting to emulate US politics. None of the political parties is anything close to what it was formed to promote, even the socialists. All of them are free trade oriented, something that was unthinkable 25 years ago. The same for immigration where the worst perps were the Con-job-servatives who opened the floodgates in 1990, but now every party is on board to get the “New Canadian” vote.
    Multi-culturalism? Yes, it makes “the Jew” happy, but it was the Ukrainians, who also punch over their weight politically, who lapped it up because it replaced the divisive Official Bi-culturalism (English-French) Policy before the browning/yellowing began in earnest.
    In reality, we’re no worse off than any other Zionist occupied country, we just have different problems than the US does.

    I have lived in Canada all my adult life, and as much as I hate to admit it, you are mostly correct.
    Where do you live? Can you honestly say that your country is any better?

    Having traveled some in Europe and the USA, I would say that the day to day life in Canada is likely second-to-none. As long as you managed your life style and resources and kept out of the “greed is good” home buying fiasco that currently rattles the big cities.

    I comment a lot on YOUTUBE and so far no one has pounded on my door at night. 15 or 20 years ago the Canadian newspapers permitted such commentary for their stories, but that stopped when the federal government began direct financial support of the media.

    That leaves YT and TUR to vent.

    Sadly you are mostly right. Canadians are both dumb, historically ignorant and incredibly naive.

  24. @anonymous749

    One very big reason why Canada is the way it is, is because of the liberal party which has been kept in power by Quebec. Without Quebec and the liberals, Canada may have developed very differently. Or perhaps not. Historically French-Canadians have often acted against their own best interests.

    I wonder what path an independent Quebec would have taken with regards…

    Quebec would have been ‘independent’ for about 2 months, tops, before being annexed by USA.

    Declassified files show that it was the CIA directing the October crisis in Quebec in 1970, supplying bomb-making materials and cash, training the FLQ in terrorism, and taking the opportunity to carry out several bombings and assassinations themselves, against Cuban targets (well that’s what they admit to). The goal was to get Quebec to separate as a stealth way of annexing Canada piecemeal. The 1970s crisis seams to have been brought about by Quebec’s refusal to hand over Hydro-Quebec and all it’s mega-dam projects to Wall St. when asked.

    Since Wall St. didn’t get their hands on it, USA declared Quebec’s hydro-electricity to be ‘non-renewable’ and blocked any long-term supply contracts, to starve Quebec of revenue, and instead they built a bunch of coal-fired plants on our border and gave us acid rain. And Quebec never finished their mega-projects which could have supplied then entire USA north-east with clean, cheap electricity. Most reliable grid in North America.

    FYI

    As I noted in the past, and as an indication of how insane Canadian immigration policy is, there are now more Sikhs in Canada, per capita, than in India — per the last census, 1 of every 50 ‘Canadians’ is a Sikh.

    For many years, the per capita immigration rate of Canada has been one of the highest in the world, e.g. an influx of Chinese around the time China was given sovereignty over Hong Kong turned Vancouver into ‘Hongcouver.’

    Canada seems to be one of the most feminized countries in the West (just look at Justin Trudeau) — Helen Andrews covers this phenomenon, e.g. see this short video.

    Good effing grief! Why is it that the default is “blame the Liberal Party”?
    I will concede that the Liberal Party has its faults, but in the last 55+ years that I have been voting, the Conservatives have caused as much or more damage. Ironically, it was the Progressive Conservative Party under the Mulroney junta that got Quebec to vote for them, causing the most damage, which is why the party collapsed. I knew several old party members that used language not permitted here to describe the junta. The follow up Conservative Party is no better. If you watched the last leadership debates there was a bidding war on how high immigration should be and it was numbers close to what the Liberals ended up doing.
    As for Quebec, a lot of subversive effort went into creating the separatist movement following the Diefenbaker landslide of 1957. Quite frankly, I wish the other political parties showed as much interest in getting what is good for Canada as the Bloc Quebecios does for getting what is good for Quebec.
    Nationally, your current choices boil down to choosing the manner in which you want to be executed.

  32. @eah

    Thanks for this.
    Yes, the levels have been too high for 50 years. The Chinese flooded here because the “Conservative” Mulroney junta literally sold Canadian citizenship to “Hong Kong investors” for moving money to Canada, most of which ended up in real estate purchases in Vancouver and Toronto. That was followed up with the junta, in 1990, switching from the previous high rates that varied according to unemployment rates, to one of “immigration targets”. The first “target” was about 50% more than the previous highest number. No government, regardless of political stripe, has changed that and every government has raised the “target”.
    One group you didn’t mention was the Tamils. They too are high proportion compared to Sri Lanka Tamils.

  33. @Kingsmeg

    ” And Quebec never finished their mega-projects which could have supplied then entire USA north-east with clean, cheap electricity. Most reliable grid in North America.”

    I don’t think that this is true, Hydro Quebec went on a dam building spree in the 1970’s and 80’s that made a mess of the wilderness creating reservoirs and rerouting rivers, untold numbers of caribou, moose and bear were killed and hundreds of thousands of acres of forests were decimated. Once pristine rivers full of Arctic Grayling and Arctic Char were turned into dead zones. This was done to supply New England and New York State. On average, Hydro Quebec provides 10-15 percent of New England’s electricity while certain states like Vermont can get 25-40% of their electricity from Quebec.

    Any hockey fan will tell you this shit’s been fixed for a while now.

    Brian Burke, former V.P. or the Calgary Flames hockey ops (and a real lawyer as is the commissioner), was able to prove in court that there was an anti-Calgary bias. Careful observers also note that they hate the Flyers and the Bruins. And the infamous soft spot for Montreal has never gone away, in addition to Pittsburgh and Edmonton. Edmonton won the draft lottery so many years in a row that they had to change the rules so people still believed it was random!

    In addition to whatever other agenda is afoot, chasing the ever-elusive never-materializing US Market TV money, and rigging the championships for US teams.

    1994 – Vancouver loss
    2004 – Calgary loss (it was in, even ABC sports said so at the time)
    2006 – Edmonton loss
    2007 – Ottawa loss
    2011 – Vancouver loss
    2021 – Montreal loss
    2024 – Edmonton loss
    2025 – Edmonton loss

    Small markets like Buffalo were definitely screwed, 1999 was so outrageous and blatant that if it was anywhere but Buffalo (4 straight superbowl losses) there may have been legal trouble.

    Watch local hockey in small markets. It’s affordable and I can even watch my nephew’s non-serious team live-streamed for fucks sakes.

    Roughly 1/3rd of the James Bay area dam projects were built. There were several additional dams planned on the La Grande and La Baleine rivers, as well as several projects somewhat south of there. The Eastmain also, IIRC.

  36. @anon

    Spoken like a usian-hustler and huckster.

  37. Let’s hope that technology advances quickly to the point where hydro electricity is obsolete so that the dams never get built.
