The question of an imaginery place in the mind of a retarded half wit child is being avoided? I wonder why? Is there a wizard at the end of gold brick road that will set you up with a brain so you can be 3/4 wit? A guy named Noah with a big boat? A big yellow bird with a talking pachyderm for a buddy nobody else has ever seen? Is it on a treasure map?

Have the cops ever sent you to the head office of this imaginary land for 72hrs to talk to the man in a white coat? Did he offer you a Pez?

Looks like C*ntley's new carbon tax might not last for long. There is a group here in Alberta getting ready to launch a legal challenge against it for being racially discriminatory both personally and commercially because she has exempted all the indians and their businesses. It is sad we will have to foot the bill for the stupid c*nt to defend a tax that 95% of the citizens are against but hopefully in the end it will be struck down and she will be held in contempt and removed from office before we vote her out.

25 cents increase in the last 6 weeks?

Might wanna check the facts on that on that one



Prices have been pretty volatile compared to my experience in NS, (there they just seemed to steadily go up every Thursday night), but I do remember filling up in November for $.86/L and the price this afternoon at the PetroCan on the #2 North of Airdrie, if my failing eyesight serves me correctly, was $1.09. Granted that was after the "Welcome to Nutley Land" tax was levied.

Pardon me for asking, but isn't a carbon tax supposed to make fuels more expensive?

Yes, but to what end? Fuels are pretty elastic and raising the price of say, the natural gas that is used to heat your houses in January is not going to cut the consumption of natural gas, nor the production of CO and CO2.

Yes, but conservatives will always feign shock to make it look egregious.

If anything, the increase is too mild.

The poor are going to suffer. The elite, from which the Liberals draw their membership, won't give a rat's *** if they have to pay more to heat there houses in the Canadian winter.

Trudeau is a millionaire.

Let them eat cake.
