Is it time to call an end to The Lions?

I'm wondering how many people are actually active on here. We have a few regular posters and some who like articles quite regularly but I think the majority of our subscribers seldom or never visit.

The Lions Locals was set up as a continuation after Danielle Smith closed down Danielle Smith Locals after becoming politically vulnerable.

For a time we maintained connections but lately this seems to have faded away to where there's only a small remnant active, and I suspect many have drifted off to other sites.

Vote to see the results, and give us your thoughts in the comments below.

As of Saturday morning, 42 people have replied, Meaning that at least 42 people visited in the last several days. The vast majority feel that the site has value and, interestingly, those who said that the site has outlived its usefulness visit and participate anyhow.

42 people visiting over a few days seems to justify the effort that members put into posting and offer encouragment. The favorable comments are much appreciated.

46 replies (latest count) in a few days isn't too bad. Indicates quite a few of us are here often, actually.

What I wonder about is the people who voted that the site has outlived its usefulness but are here just the same. Also I wonder how many people came and read the message and didn't vote. When I visualize 45 people in a room, that seems like a respectable crowd for a small get together.

​I. The Banker in the PMO
​You have famously stated on camera, "I'm a banker, not a career politician." That much is evident. Your leadership has treated Canada not as a sovereign nation of citizens, but as a balance sheet to be "optimized" for global investors. You are a technician for a vision that seeks to dismantle national independence in favor of the "variable geometry" of global power you promoted at Davos 2026.
​II. The Death of the Trades & The "Build Canada" Scam
​As someone who has worked in the trades for over 15 years, I see the "holes" in your Build Communities Strong Fund. You talk about "supercharging" homebuilding, but your policies are crushing the people who actually do the work:
​The Productivity Trap: You demand 500,000 homes a year while your "hidden" fuel taxes and inflation make it impossible for ...

Someone finally put the truth in print in a Red Deer obituary. She was 71.
" Six years ago. Val’s health began to be compromised. She battled every day to reverse the vaccine injury after long battle in excruciating pain."
