    Alberta GTFO?

    When I was crushing gravel a decade ago, accidentally finding coal seams in south east Saskatchewan was a common occurrence and a pain in the ass. I, to this day, could lead someone to coal deposits that are relatively untouched except by accident. I’m assuming the same might be said about the...

    Canadian Federal Election Outcome October 20th (or 27th?), 2025.

    Elections Canada has to have our faith and trust in order to be effective…in it’s capacity as an unbiassed effective organization. We is a nation roll a dice with an election and have to be content confident in the outcome, or it doesn’t work.

    Fentanyl

    Something has to be done, and a stand made. The status quo isn’t working as demonstrated over the last decade. 15yrs ago I never really expected to find vandalism to our property, etc…on a daily basis (not that it didn’t happen but if it did, it was unexpected), but now daily I go out looking...

    Canadian Federal Election Outcome October 20th (or 27th?), 2025.

    What it sounds like you’re saying is that, confidence in our electoral system is becoming questionable, which is not a good optic for the nation as a whole, national unity in general, and a significant failure on the part of Elections Canada with broad reaching implications if not correctly...

    Canada’s Military current state & equipment

    Trump sure exposed the threat to having to rely on the good graces of another nation, regardless of whether we’ve bought & paid for the military hardware for our national defence or not. $88,000,000,000.00 or whatever doesn’t buy what it once did.

    Canada’s Military current state & equipment

    We (Canadians) aren’t the only nation pondering this same question/problem. Perhaps the solution is multinational?

    Ok, so a front end and a “Now” solution is in order. What’s your plan gentlemen? A decade ago going backwards, the lid was still on, but now, what lid exists for the “Now” situation (?) and what do we do for the current & future junkies?

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Ok, what’s your idea of a solution even in the short term (?) if this is 20 month old goat rodeo needs intervention right now…like what could have been done in 72hrs or less with the tools that were already on hand to set a precedent going forward? Yes, the UN is not only limp wristed but also...

    Fentanyl

    Good question! I don’t know the answer. How many did start out productive in the first place? (I know once they’re on that shit, whether they started out productive or not, they aren’t any longer…and crime goes up, and safety goes down, etc…) The junkies I see, in my opinion, are unemployable...

    Donald Trump Announces 2016 White House Bid

    Well, I heard it first here… WASHINGTON, May 12 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump signed a wide-reaching executive order on Monday directing drugmakers to lower the prices of their medicines to align with what other countries pay that analysts and legal experts said would be difficult...

    Well, I preferred the Conservatives plan towards a solution but…parts of Canada elected Carney due to Trump-Fear instead of Canadian choices for Canadian issues… So here we are, and I haven’t had to clean up human waste off my garage pad since…last Fall. I’d prefer to see Junkies become...

    Canada’s Military current state & equipment

    “One of the main selling points of the F-35 was that we would have reliable access to spare parts for 40 years,” Carleton University international affairs chair Stephen Saideman told CTVNews.ca. “Now that reliability is much less certain.” “The problem with the F-35 is not with the aircraft...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    I’m just trying to fit the pieces together, to utilize the tools on hand, to solve a problem that hasn’t found a solution in the last 20 months with what they’re doing already. Yeah, & how’s that working out? At least I offered a plausible solution to set a precedent for an aid truck getting...

    What Canada should do when trying to deal with USA on the Tariff issue.

    At this point, 5 o’clock on a Friday, I think I’d be happy with a nice salad and a chunk of garlic sausage.

    Canadian Federal Election Outcome October 20th (or 27th?), 2025.

    If we we (Canada) where to restrict the amount of oil flowing south, you can expect to see Hummers rolling down our streets (not Canadian ones). We can diversify, but we can’t restrict or shit would hit the fan faster than I think anybody would believe. We don’t want our neighbours to the south...

    Canadian Federal Election Outcome October 20th (or 27th?), 2025.

    This outcome was declared final and caused much commentary about how every vote counts. Indeed, every vote did count. Until it didn’t. It was reported recently that a Bloc voter had her mail-in ballot returned to her four days after the election because of an incorrect address on the pre-printed...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Trump is literally over there in the general neighbourhood (this coming from somebody in trucking and logistics, with people going back-and-forth across North America constantly delivering RV’s, etc…) so he could jump into the bitch-seat here: …& anybody who tries to stop him, he could threaten...

    http://apple.news/AJOnTiQusQ7awARMZMPw6KQ I’ve got a friend who’s closer to 90 than he’s not…& on the topic of Peak Oil, he says when he was young, the scaremongering was Peak Coal, and here we are. As for peak oil, Guilbeault was also very likely wrong. For years, activists have claimed that...
