Ian Brackenbury Channell, also known as The Wizard of New Zealand, says he learned a 'great lesson' in Canada navigating without a radar over the tundra.

Ian Brackenbury Channell, who now goes by Jack, is the Wizard of New Zealand. He was appointed to his position in 1990 by Prime Minister Mike Moore. The Wizard says he has a"very unusual" car, which is a Volkswagon Beetle with two frontends and no backends. When he drives it, he says people don't know whether it's going forwards or backwards. He says it's not going which way that counts. It's having fun that counts, he says.

"I never claimed what I'm saying is true or false. Do you enjoy the speech? Do you enjoy what I'm saying? Do you enjoy thinking of these things, playing with words?" After the Second World War, England had strict rationing because of food shortages, but there was plenty to eat in Manitoba, where he found the climate "very strange."

Trudeau’s disdain for our courageous military and lack of historical knowledge Mark this 75th anniversary of VJ Day as another Black Day in Trudeau’s history of disrespect for our military heritage...his aids tweeted out his usual drivel on virtue signalling...he’s a disgrace...

Be careful! Saying Canada had anything to teach anyone in 1952 can get you cancelled.

Relevant and informative news from CTV , well done 🤔

Best headline of 2020?

Okay. You are all officially insane.

“Casting out evil spirits” no pagan has the authority, power, or ability to do this. He’s just a silly fool in a costume living on taxpayer money doing his best to propagate pagan ideology. “Whoever trusts in his own mind is a fool, but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered”

Word brother 🧙‍♂️

That guy must smell worse than surreycanuck6 and a rotten brick of cheese he brought back from Bellingham and forgot about in his trunk
