Colby Cosh of Maclean’s muses how the cold winter weather of Edmonton produced the “cradle of leadership” in Canada. He bases this on a study out of Japan which claims people who live in northern latitudes have higher IQs.
That got me wondering: how bright can Albertans be? These are, after all, people who divide the vote among two main parties: conservative and ultra-conservative.
Lizard brain
According to Psychology Today, conservatives are ruled by their lizard brains (that is, amygdalas):.
Author Seth Godin has a more colorful take:
The lizard brain is hungry, scared, angry, and horny.
The lizard brain only wants to eat and be safe.
The lizard brain will fight (to the death) if it has to, but would rather run away. It likes a vendetta...
Nurture vs. Nature
The Japanese study indicates it took 60 generations, or about 1200 years, for the effect to take place. Clearly Albertans haven’t had enough time to evolve into lizard people.
So what turned the province into a bastion of angry cranks all too eager to slap bumper stickers like “Let them Eastern basterds freeze in the dark!” on their pickup trucks?
The only remaining possibility is their rigid rural culture which fosters rugged individualism and stone-cold apathy for any person outside of the family circle.
So if culture can actually change the structure of one’s brain, it follows that conservative ideology causes brain damage!

Perhaps Health Canada should insist the Sun Media and National Post put warning labels on their publications.
Just look at what Fox News did to the American South. The Tea Party movement appears to be the outcome of a science experiment run amok that unleashed a contagion of stupid upon the populace. Woody Allen aptly describes the people infected with the brain-wasting meme as “crypto-fascist zombie airheads.”CRAZY COLIN visit schools to wow, dazzle and delight, performing magic shows in schools as a treat, as a reward, to tie in with a topic, just for fun, or to get an educational message across in an entertaining way.

CEA stands for carcinoembryonic antigen. It is a protein found in the tissues of a developing baby. CEA levels normally become very low or disappear after birth. Healthy adults should have very little or no CEA in their body.
This test measures the amount of CEA in the blood, and sometimes in other body fluids. CEA is a type of tumor marker. Tumor markers are substances made by cancer cells or by normal cells in response to cancer in the body..
A CEA test can’t tell you what kind of cancer you have, or even whether you have cancer. So the test is not used for cancer screening or diagnosis. But if you’ve already been diagnosed with cancer, a CEA test can help monitor the effectiveness of your treatment and/or help find out if the disease has spread to other parts of your body.
Other names: CEA assay, CEA blood test, carcinoembryonic antigen test
What is it used for?
A CEA test may be used to:
- Monitor treatment of people with certain types of cancers. These include colon cancer and cancers of the rectum, prostate, ovary, lung, thyroid, and liver.
- Figure out the stage of your cancer. This means checking the size of the tumor and how far the cancer has spread.
- See if cancer has returned after treatment.
Why do I need a CEA test?
You may need this test if you’ve been diagnosed with cancer. Your health care provider may test you before you start treatment, and then regularly throughout the course of your therapy. This can help your provider see how well your treatment is working. You may also get a CEA test after you’ve completed treatment. The test can help show whether the cancer has come back.
What happens during a CEA test?
CEA is usually measured in the blood. During a CEA.
Sometimes, CEA is tested in the spinal fluid or from fluid in the abdominal wall. For these tests, your provider will remove a small sample of fluid using a thin needle and/or syringe. The following fluids may be tested:
- Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), a clear, colorless liquid found in the spinal cord
- Peritoneal fluid, a fluid that lines your abdominal wall
- Pleural fluid, a liquid inside your chest cavity that covers the outside of each lung
Will I need to do anything to prepare for the test?
You don’t need any special preparations for a CEA blood test or a pleural fluid test.
You may be asked to empty your bladder and bowels before a CSF or peritoneal fluid test.
Are there any risks to the test?
There is very little risk to having a CEA blood test. You may have slight pain or bruising at the spot where the needle was put in, but most symptoms go away quickly.
CEA tests of body fluids are usually very safe. Serious problems are rare. But you may experience one or more of the following side effects:
- If you had a CSF test, you may feel some pain or tenderness in your back at the site where the needle was inserted. Some people get a headache after the test. This is called a post-lumbar headache.
- If you had a peritoneal fluid test, you may feel a little dizzy or lightheaded after the procedure. There is a small risk of damage to the bowel or bladder, which may cause an infection.
- If you had a pleural fluid test, there is a small risk of lung damage, infection, or blood loss.
What do the results mean?
If you were tested before you started treatment for cancer, your results may show:
- A low level of CEA. This may mean your tumor is small and the cancer has not spread to other parts of your body.
- A high level of CEA. This may mean you have a larger tumor and/or your cancer may have spread.
If you are being treated for cancer, you may be tested several times throughout treatment. These results may show:
- Your levels of CEA started high and remained high. This may mean your cancer is not responding to treatment.
- Your levels of CEA started high but then decreased. This may mean your treatment is working.
- Your CEA levels decreased, but then later increased. This may mean your cancer has come back after you’ve been treated.
If you had a test on a body fluid (CSF, peritoneal, or pleural), a high level of CEA may mean the cancer has spread to that area.
If you have questions about your results, talk to your health care provider.
Is there anything else I need to know about a CEA test?
Many cancers don’t produce CEA. If your CEA results were normal, you may still have cancer. Also, high levels of CEA can be sign of a noncancerous health condition. In addition, people who smoke cigarettes often have higher than normal CEA levels.When a pandemic hits, does universal health care save lives?
Ruth Castellanos is a COVID “long-hauler,” and sees a battery of specialists. While her symptoms are alarming, thanks to Canada’s single-payer health care, her bills are covered. Does universal health care save lives when a pandemic erupts? “Critical Care: America vs the World,” airs April 21 on PBS, examining how other nations provide universal care at a lower cost, with better outcomes.If there is an adjustment for it, you want to set the blade to tilt *forward* at the bottom of the blade. This will give you straighter straight-line cuts. It will mess up any curve cuts you make however, which you have to set the blade to
