We woke this morning to "fog", not really fog but the smoke from the Canadian wildfires. It only looks like fog downstate here.

I am getting reports that if you live in da U.P., it's sort of looking like the Mt. St. Helens aftermath with all the ash all over everything.

So where's the gnashing of teeth from the Tree Huggers?
Where are the people demanding Canada pay $ billions in Carbon Credits for all this pollution?

The silence from the Climate Changers has been deafening since their masters decided that they wanted Data Centers, it seems.

What you just said is another clue to the mystery I'm trying to solve. The local media here say "Parts of upstate NY and the surrounding areas are experiencing smoke from northwestern Ontario." Michigan isn't part of the
surrounding area! So they're trying to make it sound like it's smaller than it really is, and "it's no big deal" and it's just "climate change."

Good point! We're either: A) being intentionally poisoned, B) being misled so they can push climate policies, C) being poisoned so they can push poisoning policies, or D) all of the above. But their opportunities with this are endless. I just hope this isn't "bat from a wet market" part 2.

Another observation: There's like 20 shipping containers in the Walmart parking lot. What happened last time there was something big and unusual going on in the Walmart parking lots? (This could be another clue.)

Based on the maps I've seen, this is pretty big. And lots of people are saying the same thing: "We've lived in this area for XX years, but now our summers have been ruined by Canadian wildfires for the last 3 years."

It's "All of the above".

They've willfully ignored decades of knowledge on forest management to appease the tree-huggers.
That leads to the wildfires that they can blame on "Climate Change" - because, you know, it can never be their poor policies that are the problem.

There are rumors that there's more burning than just trees, though. But I don't have any facts on that. But intentionally poisoning people is on their agenda. After, WE are the carbon they want to reduce.

Interesting... Walmart (and the like) usually use those as temporary warehousing for stuff they can't fit in the back room. So if they were going to have a big sale on grills, for example, they might have a container or 2 of them so that they have the stock to sell.

That's the same thing here. It was a new thing when Biden and Trudeau were
"in charge" and of course it's continuing now.

That explains it too.

That would explain it somewhat, but I've never seen them do this before (not with this many shipping containers.)

This is the scheme I call "willfull incompetence".

Elitists want to wreck X (whatever that is today).
So they first infiltrate and subvert the "experts", not to do what they want, but to have them espouse the WRONG things.
Next they hire these "experts" to be in charge of X.
Wait a few years and X is wrecked.

We knew through our own mistakes how to do proper forest management. So did Canada.
But Canada willfully put incompetents in charge of the forest management, who stopped the controlled burns, making the large wildfires inevitable.

Which they can then use to push their "Climate Change!" agenda. Which their appeased Tree-Hugger crowd will help fight (and vote) for.

Maybe Antifa is going to riot in the area soon, so they need the supplies. :)

Realistically, watch the ads. You'll probably see a big sale at Walmart soon.

That sounds true, and that's what Trump says, and Trump is no liar, but I'm still skeptical about the way the smoke smells and about the "explanation" for the way it smells.

I like what Trump said about making Canada pay for the damage it's doing to the USA through tariffs, and I expect that to be implemented soon. They can't get away with this.

But we can apply some critical thinking skills here and get a good idea.

1. We know that trees and other brush is burning - So wood smoke.
2. Probably other plants are also burning (i.e. wacky weed).
3. If houses are caught in the wildfire, we can add plastics and other things you shouldn't breathe the smoke of when they burn.
4. There was probably treated lumber in the mix - so arsenic.
5. Moving over the lakes, whatever was in the smoke also got hydrated - which may change some of the chemicals in the smoke.

So why we don't know what exactly was in the smoke and how much, we can certainly make the judgement that the smoke is unhealthy and will cause problems if you breathe too much of it.

Agreed. The only way to hurt a Leftie is to hold them accountable.

I believe that other materials are in the mix, but I'm skeptical about it being from burnt structures. That's the part that I was trying to get proof of but couldn't. Could humidity really change the chemicals though?

I know you don't smoke weed, but hear me out:

When people smoke bongs, the water filters the smoke somewhat, and the proof is in the dirty water when they're done. If bongs were capable of turning smoke into formaldehyde, wouldn't we have heard about it by now?

We need real scientists (not Obama-appointed ones) to take samples and tell us the truth.

I will argue that the source of the chemicals is not relevant right now. We know what's in the smoke is "bad". Bad enough that we need to hold Canada accountable for their actions (or inactions).

If this weren't an international incident, we'd have a court case, do discovery and then the sources would become relevant, but I don't think we'll ever get to that.

Could humidity really change the chemicals though?

Yes. Some chemicals get more toxic when hydrated.

My understanding it that a bong does not filter. It concentrates the smoke by cooling it before you inhale. The dirty water is simply what happens because the smoke and water touch.

That said, without really digging into what's happening here, there's a possibility that the water would cause
things like tar to be "filtered" out simply because it cools enough to fall out of the smoke and into the water.

We need real scientists (not Obama-appointed ones) to take samples and tell us the truth.

We've been asking for that for literally decades and nothing happens.

What's the REAL source of disease? We know it's not viruses because that's been completely debunked. So what is causing it? No one knows because the medical industry already "knows" the answer.

It would be beneficial to residents of both countries if Trump (or congress) would come down hard on them.

Yes. Some chemicals get more toxic when hydrated.

I get that. Wet dogs smell different from dry dogs (for example) and it is possible that there are other things in the mix besides trees, but I just wish we could have some proof. I'd be more comfortable with the smell of burnt plastic if I were sure that it's burnt plastic and not burnt asbestos.

We all do what we can. In my case, I avoid buying anything made in Canada.

Maybe if I was Elon, I could build a giant fan and blow the smoke back over Canada. :)

I've been wishing for a Tricorder for a long time now. It would expose sooooo many Leftist plots.

The way I look at it is this: The smoke is unhealthy, even if we don't know exactly what's in it. So that's how I handle the smoke.

I try to avoid the "McDonalds Coffee" thinking.
Them: They served it at 200F instead of 180F causing more serious burns.
Me: 180F, 200F, both are painfully hot and I will take precautions to not spill it on myself.

My wish came true overnight or early this morning: 50% tariffs on many Canadian goods.

Prime Minister Carney said "the tariffs are in violation of north American trade agreements." (So many words, but still no apology!)

Maybe if I was Elon, I could build a giant fan and blow the smoke back over Canada. :)

But the smoke needs to go all the way up to Quebec for Carney to take a whiff.

For now we just have to use the BS2000 and the TDS meter.

That's true. I have a habit of worrying about things too much. Trump has our back and we are blessed.
