    The Tarriff Hype.

    No idea. Perhaps because the markets are closed, & Trump made it sound like Canadian oil might be exempt, until he didn’t? Trump suggested there would be a staggered rollout, telling reporters he will target Canadian oil and gas shipments with a lower 10 per cent tariff rate, setting a later...

    April Fools!! Here's your Carbon Tax F#ckers!!!

    http://www.youtube.com/shorts/NNkTNi5M5AY (For Tec, “Here’s what Carney will replace the carbon tax with. Either way, you pay!”) Canada’s Trump tariff nightmare is Mark Carney’s big opportunity to turn Canada into the climate Emerald City Carney’s always dreamed of. Good to know. The bulk of...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    So here’s a weird one that might seem like background but really isn’t. In 2023, 91 percent of the potash used in the United States was imported from other countries, a slight increase compared to the previous year. Canada was the primary source of potash imports to the U.S. at that time. (Of...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    It’s unclear if Canada’s oil will be exempt from the tariff as Trump told reporters that oil “has nothing to do with it.” Trump’s tariffs aim to force Canada and Mexico to take serious action against illegal drug smuggling and immigration which occurs at their borders.    Initially, the...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    http://apple.news/A199d-o6JQrmNQU_vagXQWw Trudeau said an advisory group of former premiers, business and union leaders are helping to make Ottawa's argument in the U.S. that Trump's tariffs against Canada "would have disastrous consequences for the United States, putting American jobs at risk...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    U.S. President Donald Trump said he will impose 25 per cent tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico on Feb. 1 – levies that threaten to deliver massive economic shocks to two of the United States' biggest trading partners. (Mr. Trump however said Canadian oil “might” be exempted from the...

    Liberals bring out the Knives

    Carney got what, by my count, is his 53rd caucus endorsement late Thursday when Jaime Battiste, the Mi’kmaw MP who represents the Cape Breton riding of Sydney–Victoria, announced he was out of the race and that he was throwing his support behind the 59-year-old “Liberal Outsider” central banker...

    April Fools!! Here's your Carbon Tax F#ckers!!!

    http://apple.news/Aw4txtVz2SXCnOSgfep-pzw …carbon tax, also known as the federal fuel charge. http://apple.news/A7UH6AgzjQd6w6H8O_1YDQg In essence, the ERP has two components. The first one, and probably the most well-known to Canadians, is the carbon tax, which places a cost on fossil fuel use...

    Liberals bring out the Knives

    Does it seem right to you that our next PM could be chosen through a process set up by the Liberal Party exclusively and someone never elected to office could rule the country for more than a year? Carney, if he is selected by registered Liberals – including 14-year-old non-citizens – could...

    Latest polling - Mainstreet: CPC at 38 percent

    Wait a second….the Ninja MP that the Liberal Party wouldn’t allow to run in the leadership race for their party… Chandra Arya…I wonder what goody he’s gonna get for his seat? Could it just be a coincidence but….he’s got Anita Vandenbeld’s riding currently (?) or maybe a conveniently located...

    Latest polling - Mainstreet: CPC at 38 percent

    Wouldn’t he have to live in the riding that he’s going to run in? Or get the seat from? Lot’sa Libs bailing out soon… But will Carney live anywhere except Ottawa? That’ll narrow down who is going to surrender their seat to him if that’s the case…so that would be either: 1) Ottawa Center...

    …& the Libs tossed Chandra Arya’s leadership bid without actually giving a public reason. Oh well. The newest game to keep authorities and the Jewish community busy is for anonymous provocateurs to plan events in the GTA promoting terrorists or the idea of turning Canada into an Islamic...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    No idea, but I’m doubting it. Probably just misunderstood upstanding citizens who accidentally got involved in murders or terrorist activities, etc…we will just have to wait for the details as this is literally happening live at this point as far as I understand things.

    Liberals bring out the Knives

    Individual MPs & party members in a particular party get a vote on who is going to be the leader of each individual party. Which ever party after an election has the most seats in Parliament, that parties leader becomes the Prime Minister. That’s the way it’s supposed to work. NDP MP’s don’t...
