When Canada elected JD Vance’s old buddy to Parliament, you had to know he’d get up to some weird shit.
Conservative MP Jamil Jivani hasn’t disappointed.
Most recently, he sent an invitation to the other MPs on the Hill for his event to “end Liberal racism.”
I got my hands on the invite:

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.
