The Great White North – or – Steve and Chuck McKenzie
Steve: Thanks for helping me out with the Apologee Bill, eh?.
Chuck: Uh, no prob, eh? Did you use the glycerine or onions?
Steve: You hoser, glycerine. I wouldn’t put a Harper-sanctioned gmo’d crop onion near me! But ya, eh, wasn’t it great with all the apples around, like, um, i was gonna have a six pack for Phontaine and his buddies so I could take them on a Starlight Tour after.
Chuck: Like, how come you didn’t, eh?
Steve: Cuz I pooed my pants. I was afraid of something going wrong.
Chuck: Ya, like I did the same. My arse was pretty raw by the end of it.
Steve: Ha, y’ah. Guess they didn’t know who it was, you know, like it was the Phantom Poo. Well, like, take off and have a Happy Canada Day, eh?
Oh those zany politicians! Imagine the whole Apologee-willikers Bill going down at the same time Mohawk Clan Mother elders were unlawfully arrested, detained, roughed up and one suffered a trauma induced heart attack while trying to cross the fictional Canadian/U.S, border. Fucking asswipes.
PLEASE DONATE TO MOHAWK NATION NEWS TO STAND AGAINST THIS INJUSTICE.
On June 14th 2008 Katenies and Kahentinetha of MNN were beaten by the Canadian Border guards at the Akwesasne [Cornwall] Ontario crossing. Their excuse was an “outstanding warrant” issued in 2003 claiming that Katenies “ran the border” placed by the colonial state through the middle of her community. Katenies has appeared in court on this matter. On both occasions she never acknowledged the false charges and filed motions contesting the courts’ jurisdiction. She refused to stand up and started reading her motion into the record, asking: “How and when did Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II get jurisdiction over me and my land?” On December 18th 2006 the court attempted to ignore the issue. When Katenies tried to read her motion into the court record, the court closed down. Katenies’ motion gave notice that a failure to respond within 30 days would be taken as an admission by the court that it had no jurisdiction. Canada has chosen to pursue this matter. We would like to share her motion with our readers. The motion is based on the Two Row Wampum and the Kaianerehkowa, the Great law of Peace, the constitution of the Haudenosaunee. Katenies found the Queen, the corporation of Canada and all its public and private corporations guilty of theft, etc. This will be the basis of proceedings when Katenies appears at 9:00 a.m. in Cornwall Ontario court on July 14th 2008. A case is being prepared against the Canadian Border Security Agency. The Canadian state can use the money of 30 million people and Indigenous resources to fight the Mohawks. Your financial help is needed. Please donate to “MNN Mohawk Nation News”, Box 991, Kahnawake [Quebec, Canada] J0L 1B0. Everyone welcome. Katenies MNN katenies20@yahoo.com (more…)
Scout is Out
Scout is out…in more ways than one.
Having first outed myself to my family whilst in Hawaii I then proceeded to go bonkers , well, er, um, further bonkers, and landed in the nut house. I didn’t see any squirrels around but did get a good first hand peak at facilities today for the mentally ill (such a stupid term in itself).
North Vancouver’s Lions Gate Hospital is rather draconian and while their blurb is a good one, it sure doesn’t hold true. About the only good thing was the uniforms…hospital issue now has nice colours in various shakes of gold, brown, tan and yellow. Yes, I was one of the revered ‘Golden Girls’ of Ward A2. We were such hags , nice hags but still hags , that none of the slightly dangerous patients would go near us (and what the fuck are slightly dangerous ones doing in a ward with non-dangerous ones, hmm, hmmm?.
Wholly inadequate. From having dropped the transitional ward to meet again with the pressures of the outisde world, those rooms have now been converted to nice office space to attract pychiatrists….oh goody, they get to have nice office space while we get tossed back out onto the street. My doctor is the director of A2 and released me knowing i’d be homeless and living in my van a few days after. As far as he is concerned that is not the hospital’s business. So, who’s nuts here, the sheeple who go along with the underfunded system and mind-altering politics, or moi, a bipolar who reacts strongly to the ills of the world?
At least i smuggled out a uni and got something out of the deal besides a med switch which seems to be affective.
Meals? We won’t even go there but I wished I’d had my camera. Mind you, they probably would have taken it away from me anyways…just like they kept trying to take away my cigarettes (Scout wouldn’t surrender them and repeatedly told them they had no right to….more on this in further posts as I strip apart the Mental Illness Act, B.C. Coastal Health Authority, etc.. Then again I may just say ‘fuck it, fuck it all’.
Most of the nurses, as usual, were angels…..about 90% women, the majority were the only ones who really knew what they were doing and had to scramble their arses off due to a nursing shortage and financial cutbacks. My doc was a typical old style doc, he was knowledgable but mysoginistic. Somehow I took great dellight in watching his facade crumble as I questioned his authority and competance. Maybe I have a cruel streak but it’s not such a bad one as I could have stripped the guy down to bare bones and watched him shrivel into a little ball. I decided not to go that far.
Fashion, food and farce…..the three ‘F’s that make up the psyche ward. Not much has changed in the Cukoo’s Nest.
Famous Stupid People #39
This time it’s a female…rules are on the sidebar. Good luck and gawd bless.
R.I.P., You Old Bastard

This pic of younger years is from his homepage.

In Celebration of National Aboriginal Day
It’s National Aboriginal Day and while I don’t have time to go into Vancouver to celebrate, I am paying hommage to the land and ancestors. I live on Squamish Nation territory, do you know who’s territory you live on???
CBC Radio One will be broadcasting a comedy in honour of the day , delivered by the “Almost Ready for Self Government’ players…..great name and hope they are as funny as the gang at Dead Dog in the City (Dead Dog Cafe).
Many Hoichka (thank you in Squamish but I probably spelled it wrong 😀 )
Happy Solstice!
This comic is an oldie but a moldy. The good old wet coast is living up to it’s name again. Poo!
