BREAKING! Mutiny at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright?
Canadian Defence Minister David McGuinty was sweating profusely last night from the effort of dissembling as he faced the press following what he called "tragic events" at a Canadian Forces base in east-central Alberta. "I'm saddened to share that there have been both fatalities and injuries as a result of an incident on the base," he said in a presser in the world's second-coldest capital city.
The minion said he could not recall an incident like this "in recent memory," while at the same time divulging no details whatever about the "incident" at CFB Wainwright earlier on Saturday. Here's the video from Canadian Press.
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said in a post on X that the province is "learning of a significant and tragic fire that is affecting many of our brave military personnel." She did not say whether or not she thought the "incident" had anything to do with the referendum to be held tomorrow in which fed-up Alberta citizens will finally get a chance to vote yes or no to the province's separation from TROC and whether to clamp down on mass immigration of undesirably and unassimilable Third-Worlders.

MUSIC VIDEO: "She taught me how to yodel" (NOT by Frank Ifield)
While we're waiting for President Trump's "energy ceasefire" supposedly agreed to by Ukraine and Russia to take effect, how about a little musical fun to distract us from the unpleasant reality.
Today we present a version of a novelty song which has been around for six decades: "She Taught Me How To Yodel". The link goes to Frank Ifield's performance of the song on The Ed Sullivan Show 7/5/67.
Frankie was born in the UK but his parents wisely moved to the land of Oz when he was a tot. He grew up in rural Australia [Is there any other kind? Ed.] where he started performing hillbilly music in his teens. He released singles which were successful in Australia and New Zealand. In America, not so much.
But that's not the version Walt wants to share with you today. We are pleased to repost this performance by a good Ukrainian girl, Софїя Шкїдченко (Sofia Shkidchenko), on Ukraine's Got Talent, in 2018.
This video has had something like 211 million hits since it was posted in 2018, and close to half a million likes. The title onscreen says that Ms Shkidchenko was 11 when it was recorded, but Ed. read elsewhere that she was born in 2005, which would have made her 13.
We're not sure if Sofia has been able to remain in Ukraine since the Russian invasion, but we understand she is actively continuing her music career internationally, performing concerts and sharing new vocal and yodeling projects across her YouTube channel and social media platforms.
She has performed live and taken part in charity events and international competitions, including appearances in Boston and on Poland's Got Talent and Spain's Got Talent. She regularly drops original tracks and covers blending pop, jazz, and traditional yodeling. Of course yodeling is not part of Ukrainian culture or tradition, but hey...
