Canada’s Farmers Warn Trudeau As He Threatens Fertilizers

Canada’s farmers warn Justin Trudeau that if he churns up the emissions targets as they have in The Netherlands, the reaction will be similar to the Dutch reaction.

Trudeau has recently criticized grain growers as the worst emissions offenders. This is what the Dutch government did – demonized farmers.

Farmers in Canada aren’t paranoid. Trudeau has put them next on his kill list. He’s a good little World Economic Forum operative. The Prime Minister is looking to kill fertilizers.

THE NEWS RELEASE

In December 2020, the Trudeau government unveiled its new climate plan. The plan focuses on reducing nitrous oxide emissions from fertilizer by 30% below 2020 levels by 2030.

“Fertilizers play a major role in the agriculture sector’s success and have contributed to record harvests in the last decade. They have helped drive increases in Canadian crop yields, grain sales, and exports,” a news release from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada reads.

“However, nitrous oxide emissions, particularly those associated with synthetic nitrogen fertilizer use, have also grown significantly.

“That is why the Government of Canada has set the national fertilizer emissions reduction target, which is part of the commitment to reduce total GHG emissions in Canada by 40-45% by 2030….”

Basically, they are admitting that reducing nitrogen fertilizer will lower crop yields over the next decade. They know it will hurt the agriculture sector and farmers.

Migrant Raped Nine-year-old Swedish child and left her in a coma...

A 9-year-old Swedish girl was raped and left for dead on a playground by an Ethiopian migrant, who had just obtained a permanent residence permit. The little girl is still in a coma.

A “minor” is suspected of the crime against the young victim: brutal rape and attempted murder at a playground in Skellefteå. There is no known connection between the victim and her attacker, according to Swedish news outlet Samnytt.se.

The 13-year-old boy suspected of trying to kill a nine-year-old girl in Skellefteå may in fact be older than he claims. This is what Andreas Nyberg, the prosecutor in charge of the investigation, told several media outlets.

Nyberg told TV4 that the criminal qualification in this case, in addition to attempted murder, is now aggravated rape of a child. The seriously injured girl is still in hospital in a critical condition and has still not regained consciousness.

The prosecutor said that the age of the suspected immigrant, allegedly aged 13, was uncertain, and that it is possible that he is in fact of age.

Investigators are currently scrambling to gather documents to pinpoint the boy’s real age. In addition, he will undergo a medical assessment to determine his age.

The suspect and his family arrived in Sweden from Ethiopia in the summer of 2017. The boy has been accused of abusing other girls and young women in Skellefteå.

Last summer he was suspected of assaulting an adult woman in the city. He is known in the municipality and has been moved to different schools. Despite this, at the end of June this year, he obtained a permanent residence permit in Sweden.

The suspect was neither arrested nor detained because of his “young age”. This fact has especially aroused strong reactions, both in...

This vast multi-faceted subject will bewilder almost everyone for years to come.

We know this because Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, billionaire brainiacs, disagree diametrically. So how can the rest of us find solid ground?

Musk casually asserts, "A.I. is a fundamental threat to the existence of human civilization." Zuckerberg answers with some petulance, "A.I. is going to make our lives better. ... Doomsday scenarios are pretty irresponsible."

People have been lecturing about climate change for many years, claiming this or that will happen in 25 years, 50 years, or 100 years. What is proven? A.I. is going to happen faster, and we will see it happen. Musk urges major countries to restrict research on A.I. before it's too late. Not likely. If you want something to keep you up at night, A.I. may be the thinking person's choice.

All the hardware is moving faster, according to Moore's Law. But that isn't where the action is. Algorithms are the rules or instructions that tell machines what to do. Math geniuses are cleverly devising more ingenious algorithms. They used to give the rules of a game to the machine. No more. Now they tell the computer to study a thousand great games and figure out what it should do to win its next game. Surprising things happen. Moves scorned by experts turn out to be genius!

The Chinese, ever chauvinistic, always assumed that a Chinese man would be the Go champion of the world forever. Well, well, you can imagine the shock to the system when the current star lost to the machine. Condescending toward A.I. the week before, the Chinese military were suddenly big believers. And what is Musk's takeaway from that? "Competition for A.I. supremacy will lead to World War III."

The old doomsday scenarios, nuclear or climate or whatever, were always more circumscribed. Life could be wiped out in one part of the planet, but other parts would not notice. A.I. is already part of everything and proliferating. For example, economists have been fretting for years about what jobs will be left for ordinary humans when robots can do all almost every job better. Massive job disruption seems guaranteed.

People who track public schools often conclude that our classrooms are doing a lousy job. Meanwhile, poorly educated Americans are encouraged to enjoy sports betting, recreational drug use, and a life on welfare. The geniuses at the top of our society seem determined to turn humans into second-class citizens unlikely to deal constructively with so many first-class machines. Bad timing or bad intentions?

Now, for a completely different kind of perplexity, let's hang around the office when the first robot workers have been welcomed into the workforce. Robots should probably be marked with black and white stripes to avoid problems, but research shows, for example, that patients prefer robot nurses that look like real nurses.

There is now a whole separate industry in robotics that we might call hair and make-up. Extreme realism is doable. Robot eyes can dilate, lips can purse, feelings can crawl across a woman's face. We have probably already crossed the threshold where an uninformed person chatted with a robot for half-hour and didn't realize it. Creepy.

There is a growing industry devoted to sexy A.I. Will they be second spouses? Or how about a live-in mistress? Will wives accept that? Will there be office romance and jealousy? Some people will probably run screaming in the direction of normalcy, but maybe other people will say, Let robots run free; it's their right. In general, robot shock will be a common experience.

Super-machines and faux humans will likely be welcome additions throughout the society but at the same time a source of unpredictable and perhaps uncontrollable menaces. Imagine people who never have a hair out of place, who never say the wrong thing. You can make them as handsome or pretty as you wish, and as brainy. Can a human love a robot or vice versa? What laws are relevant? Robots can be made to look just like the people you now work beside. How will you feel when you realize...
