Would anyone here allow an oil company to store their excess gasoline in you car or truck parked in your garage with them sometimes taking back more than they stored?




It is TRULY REMARKABLE how far LIE-berals will go to avoid discussing thing they regard as awkward and inconvenient!


LOOK at this dose of reality:




The LIE-beral definition of democracy is clearly badly flawed! For instance LIE-berals think it is undemocratic for Ford to cut the size of the bloated Toronto City Hall council without consulting with citizens. Yet LIE-berals think nothing of scorning us when we complain about the teeming tens of thousands of illegals LIE-berals have invited here over our many protests!

Ford asks us: “how many Cdns would want to trade in a bunch of city councillors in exchange for $25 million dollars in savings? LIE-berals do NOT want the answer to that one!

LIE-berals tell us that spending billions of dollars over a period of decades to tend to the swarms of illegals they are rounding up like stray cats is somehow good for us. But LIE-berals cannot honestly explain HOW this will be good for us!

LIE-berals insist they have the border crisis under control but how would they know? LIE-berals are currently using DNA testing on illegals in an effort to find out where they came from and in hope of discovering if they might represent a national security threat- but considering that most third world countries are delighted to be rid of criminals- can we trust the security screening if third world govts refuse to give full information on a citizen?

This is not first time we have been warned the first time we have been warned about unreliable criminal records from third world countries. Twenty years ago RCMP warned Cdn govt of the unwillingness of Indian govt to help identify Indian criminals coming to Canada!

Ontari-owe LIE-berals told us three different numbers for their 2018 budget deficit- using accounting methods NEVER TAUGHT in any honest school of business, And now we have federal LIE-berals fudging rhe numbers on how many illegals have come here using exactly the same kind of fuzzy accounting. And LIE-berals are using several lists for “illegals” and for “irregular border crossers, So how many hundred thousand illegals will we be dealing with by the time Our idiot Boy and his moronic minions are dumped from office?

WE should consider current LIE-beral immigration policy to be an unprecedented act of vandalism because so many of the illegals lack any language skills or education to survive in Canada without receiving massive amounts of ongoing govt aid that we cannot afford thanks to decades of LIE-beral debt! LIE-berals refuse either to discuss the real cost of keeping illegals or the cost of shipping them back where they came from- assuming we CAN figure out where they came from! And finding out where they came from will be so slow and costly and cumbersome that it is quite likely most of the illegals will die here of old age before any real action is taken!

LIE-beral immigration policy has burdened us with a social underclass that lacks the ability to survive without deceit and potentially criminal activity! After all if your first act upon entering a new country is to destroy all your documents and to LIE about who you are and where you came from it sets a BAD precedent for your future behaviour!- doesnt it!!!


Toronto City Hall liberals tell us that illegals who live and work in Toronto should be regarded as being part of our community and should be allowed to vote in our elections. Does that mean that I can break into the residence of John Tory and do his dishes and cut his grass when he is not home so I can become part of his family and he will have to support me? Or will he call the cops and have me arrested for tresspassing?

If I sneaked into Mexico from my home in Canada, would they let me vote in their elections?

LIE-berals insist that illegals who sneak into our country and work here illegally ARE CONTRIBUTING to our country and thus should be allowed to vote. Should we then count their vote according to what level of taxes they pay? And since illegals only pay sales tax on stuff they purchase- with NO income tax or health levy- though it does not stop them from using our health care with forged documents made by other illegals, and while sending their kids to our schools which they also do not pay for - how many thousands of illegal votes should we count up before admitting they are equal to ONE full time tax payer?

LIE-berals say it is not fair that illegals work here but have no say in govt- but is it fair they get access to all manner of our services for FREE?

If LIE-berals get their wish and illegals are allowed to vote- does that mean that LIE-berals will then accept a mass of Muslims swarming here and voting for Sharia Law?

Mexico has a law explicitly FORBIDDING foreigners from voting in their elections or influencing their elections in any way- how come LIE-berals do not count Mexicans as racists?

Pakistan went through a solid month of rioting in 2017 - with a hundred people killed and hundreds wounded because their Minster of Law forgot to properly thank Allah in a speech he made- and then refused to resign for slighting Allah. Does this mean that Muslims are religiously intolerant?

In 1964 a pile of 5 Yankee quarters- 25 cent pieces- contained an amount of silver that today in 2018 is worth $17.00 dollars. So which - a pocket full of those 1964 silver coins- and the LOW taxes of the time- or the current Ontari-owe minimum wage- plus the recent MASSIVE TAX INCREASES would you prefer to have? And who wants to tell me that LIE-beral meddling with our economy and the value of our money through inflation has been beneficial to ordinary people?

Considering the staggering debts being run up by our govt- and the probability of another devastating stock market crash is there any reason to save money at all?

And should we ask if investing in cheap ass GIC`s and govt bonds? Especially considering the first thing the Greek govt did to cut costs and reduce debt was to STOP PAYING OUT for their govt bonds- meaning the small investors ate the biggest loss?

At what point do we agree that LIE-berals have proven you can steal more money with a pen than with a gun?

Threading a sewing machine is something that is easy to do when you understand how a sewing machine works, as operators are supposed to do.

Now she can keep sewing until she drops as long as somebody threads the needle for her. What with the patch on one eye-socket and a red-eye in the remaining eye she needs all the help she can get so she keeps herself in 'depends'. You want me to interfere in that process, I can tell you right now, 'It Ain't Gonna Happen.'

I like it better when it points to him being an adult and just as stupid. I seldom get what I want.


Poor Hoid......HE THINKS he understands all about electric motors......but he knows nothing about batteries!!!!


And Poor Hoid clearly knows nothing about the thoughts of ordinary Cdns regarding LIE-beral electric Toy vehicles!!!!


And he THINKS he is clever enough to defend LIE-beral policy on the environment and electricity generation and oh my- he IS SO VERY WRONG ON THESE ASSUMPTIONS!!!!!!!


Consider:





Here is an article illustrating how hostile much of the Cdn public is to LIE-beral climate Crap! With some comments of my own in brackets):

Don't let climate alarmists muzzle your skepticism. By Lorne Gunter , Edmonton Sun. First posted: Saturday, January 07, 2017 06:00 PM EST

Don MacIntyre is the Wildrose Shadow Minister for Electricity & Renewables and spoke to media of the Carbon Levy, levy rebates at the Alberta Legislature on January 1, 2017. (Photo by Shaughn Butts / Postmedia Network)

Two things happened in Alberta politics this week that demonstrate just how zealous “green” politicians everywhere are about the theory that human activities are causing dangerous climate change.

Under pressure from voters over the $3-billion-a-year carbon tax that it brought in on Jan. 1, Alberta’s NDP government lashed back.

First, on Tuesday the NDP caucus officially demanded that Wildrose Leader Brian Jean remove MLA Don MacIntyre from his post as opposition critic for renewable energy and electricity.

Why? Had MacIntyre been pilfering funds from taxpayers? Had he been harassing interns? Making racist statements?

No. MacIntyre’s sin was expressing doubts about the manmade climate change theory. In short, the NDP wanted MacIntyre removed for exercising his right to free expression.

(Well I am thinking that climate change deniers are not terribly bright- but it IS A FACT that the LIE-beral Carbon crap and trade scam will NOT clean the air- it will only clean wallets. For proof all we need to do is study the now very much disgraced European carbon crap and trade mess that LIE-berals modelled their version on!)

The NDP didn’t want to counter MacIntyre’s opinions with their own. They wanted MacIntyre’s views branded as lies. And they wanted him shut up.

Attempts to censor climate change skeptics is an increasing tactic of the climate alarmists, with some American alarmists launching a racketeering lawsuit against skeptics and Canadian eco-activist David Suzuki calling on governments to jail skeptics.

Alberta’s NDP also sought to justify their imposition of a carbon tax on everything that moves in Alberta (and every home that is heated and every light that is switched on) by claiming that at least one American state – Washington – is doing the same thing. On the Tuesday edition of CBC TV’s Power and Politics, Alberta Environment Minister Shannon Phillips insisted Washington would soon have a tax similar to Alberta’s.

(LIE-beral greed and lust for power at any price are so huge they cannot look at themselves in a mirror! LIES MUST be the order of the day so LIE-berals can sleep at night without feeling like complete PIGS!)

Except the state of Washington isn’t imposing a carbon tax. Indeed, in November Washington voters rejected a statewide plebiscite (59% to 41%) to enact a carbon tax. Later Phillips claimed that what she meant was that since the failure of the plebiscite, Washington Governor Jay Inslee has asked state legislators to consider imposing one despite voters clear rejection of such a tax.

Alberta’s New Democrats, like greenies everywhere, want to muzzle any opinion on climate change that differs from their own extreme views, while making up facts that make their opinions look more objective.

(Lets face it- bare faced LIES presented and accepted without public debate of glaring faults will make life much easier for LIE-berals and their hog allies!)

So in the interest of readers who may wonder whether the science of global warming/climate change truly is “settled,” I would like to offer some online resources that will show a significant- and perhaps growing number of scientists have doubts about humans’ impact on climate.

This is important because if humans are not contributing significantly to climate change, then policies such as Ontario’s cap-and-trade scheme, Alberta’s carbon tax and Ottawa’s carbon price will not only be economically crippling, they will be environmentally meaningless at the same time.

Start with these three online articles that all offer excellent summaries of exactly what is and isn’t scientifically known about climate science. You’ll be surprised how much of what is reported as “fact” is still only theory that exists in computer models:

http://www.dailywire.com/news/2071/most-comprehensive-assault-global-warming-ever-mike-van-biezen

My Global Warming Skepticism, for Dummies « Roy Spencer, PhD

http://www.breitbart.com/big-govern...ists-remembered-and-climate-politics-in-2016/

Then, if you want to dig deeper, visit WattsUpWithThat.com, the world’s most-viewed climate science site.

There are also Friends of Science Calgary, the Global Warming Policy Foundation, the CO2 Coalition, Climate Depot, Climate Audit and Still Waiting for Greenhouse. And each of those sites will take you to dozens more.

You might also Google “Russian Academy of Science” and “ice age.” Russia’s most prestigious scientific institute believes we are in for prolonged global cooling (not warming) because our sun is about to enter a phase of less activity that could last 30 years.

(Clearly Carbon crap and trade will NOT affect solar output from our star!)

The two things these articles and sites will show is that there are plenty of credible scientists who disagree with the warming consensus. And at least some alarmists are doing all they can to keep them quiet.

(Sadly- all this climate debate is moot as LIE-berals have decided that carbon crap is a MARVELOUS excuse for a MAJOR tax grab!)

(On the plus side- there is a real probability that LIE-berals will be run out of Ottawa on a rail after the next federal election so they will not be able to abuse us with their carbon crap and trade scam much longer!)

What can I do to customize an EV to improve performance?



Good morning, Pete- just going off topic here for a minute. What's the job situation in SK now? I have a guy from N. Battleford camped out on my lawn. He just finished a welding course in SK and says prospects for work there are dismal at ANY trade. He says the prospects for a welding job are much better here, although, he's taken a job building bath tubs until a welding job materializes. I remember a couple of years ago you were saying SK is booming, even more so than AB. What has brought the drastic change about?

Yup. Manufacturing is doing very well. I'd wager $100 Brandt is hiring

Next year Yara and CO-OP are expanding and Chuck in BHP as well. Welding work for a couple years.

Trudeau.

Isn't it kind of hard to look for work in SK when on your lawn in BC?

He's quit looking in SK. Took a job here before he starved. N. Battleford seems to have a bit of reputation problem, apparently.

There must be more to his story, should be lots of work in that area within 100km or so.

He can leave the Battlefords to live on your lawn in Vermin but can't move to Anaheim SK to work for Doepeker?

Security fence? Nobody here protests.
