This isn't Christmas Eve fare, and I thought about waiting until the 26th to post it, but supposedly an amateur detective has solved the Zodiac killer mystery. And the horrific Black Dahlia killing. He says it's the same person! I always thought of them as very far apart in time but I think Black Dahlia was mid-fifties (nope, 1947) mid and the Zodiac murders began in 1968 so it's possible it's the same killer.

The killer, if it's the same man, would have been in his 20s when he killed the Black Dahlia and his 40s when he did the Zodiac murders. Possible.

A little caveat: I saw someone snark on Reddit, "The Zodiac case gets solved more often than Wordle." There are a ton of coincidences here, supposedly, like a Zodiac cipher being solved by the name "Elizabeth." Elizabeth Short was the name of the so-called Black Dahlia.

If you don't know about the Black Dahlia, don't look it up. Just accept that it's grisly on the level of Jack the Ripper.

Yes, the named suspect resembles the police sketch of Zodiac.

Here's a podcast with the amateur sleuth who claims he cracked the Zodiac.

It should be interesting to see what the Bloc does, considering Quebec threw a lot of support behind the Conservatives. They are obviously trying to get a cabinet appointment or two, but the strength of their showing also suggests Quebec is getting twitchy again.

Maybe another independence referendum in a few years?

Can't believe after all the scandals, the Liberals still won 103 seats. Do Canadians not read their own media? Do they not want clean government?

Atlantic (Eastern) Canada went Liberal because they saw the Conservatives ahead in the polls and generally buck the trends because they think that's what will give them a greater voice in the government (plus, they hate the rest of the country).
Ontario stayed Liberal because the Liberals have been pretty good to them (just not to the rest of the country).
Those factors, and a last minute surge from the NDP out West (knocking out Conservatives) is what kept the Conservatives from being handed a majority government.
The lesson is: Atlantic Canada blows.

In other news...

The U.S. administration, excited by the resurgence of right wing politics on the continent, has had a change of heart, and has decided to give back the $5 billion dollars in software lumber tariffs that were stolen from Canada.

Sure, come to Maine and try to make that argument.

Go to Millinocket or Rumford and try to say that we "stole" $5 billion from Canada in tariffs on an industry that is heavily subsidized by the Canadian government.

I'm not crazy about tariffs, but your wording is imprecise at best.
