I try to stay away from "rags" of any political persuasion.

I think we should look closely at the credibility of anyone wanting to call themselves a "journalist", and employ some way to make this information available to all media consumers.

It looks to me like Mr. O'Toole is hoping to skim some votes off the Liberal party by giving the CPC the appearance of moving closer to center. He likes to talk up the environment and social and economic inequality, things that would have the far right hollering "socialist" if it were anyone...

Let's not lose sight of the fact that Levant is a mouthpiece for far-right extremist groups and spends much of his time in court defending his big yap, and even more time hammering out retractions and apologies to keep his ass out of court. I'm all for protection of journalists, but that name...

He's right,"truth" is highly subjective when speaking of things that can't be proven or veirfied. What's true for you may not necessarily be true for another and without some method of judging what is "true" then to say you're right and someone else is wrong is a pretty shaky position, and more...

I make no claim to divine knowledge. I just bugs me when I see people toss insults and claim the moral high road on subjects that are basically unknowable. You are entitled to your beliefs, but you are not entitled to judge mine. “Heal the sick, feed the hungry, care for the weakest among...

I wonder if the Conservatives who voted against Mr. O'Toole's motion appreciate the strength of the political ammunition they just handed to the Liberals ?

What does your God say about browbeating others with your version of morality? Doesn't he have something to say about letting others follow the path God has laid out for them ? But that's just the Bible, not so much God's word as written and rewritten and re-rewritten by mere humans.

Were they stand on climate change takes a back seat to the fact that they are a divided party right now. If he can't get his own house in order how will voters trust him to lead the country ? People will hold their noses and vote Liberal just like the last election when Scheer thought all he...

Then where are you getting your information?

Hey, everybody makes mistakes. It's just that not all those mistakes can be seen from space.

"God" has many faces. If his true nature is ever discovered it will be scientists who figure it out, not somebody waving a book around, a book penned by human hand.

Politics isn't about truth, it's about what you can get people to believe.

Their focus appears to be on working in tandem with existing mining operations, operations with known high concentrations of the elements being sought, no mention of oilsands tailings. And with the oil industry under the environmental microscope the extraction technology would have to be...

That article is three years old, back before Shell sold off it’s oilsands holdings to CNRL, a corporation notably mentioned as one of the big offenders in reneging on clean-up obligations in BC. Where are they now on their REE recovery plan ? More window dressing.

The idea of extracting REEs from oilsands tailings is still experimental. A couple of different players have quiet agreements with oilsands producers to see if the idea has any merit. And if their stock prices are any indication there’s nothing really encouraging happening. The oilsands...

That’s quite a stretch. A technology in its infancy.

Weren’t there similar obligations in place for the now “orphaned” gas and oil wells ? The “progress” made so far on reclamation can be best described as window dressing. A handful of acres in high visibility settings.

Hardly surprising. We can expect the same sort of thing in Alberta. Oilsands Land Reclamation

Going soft on environmental responsibility will cost votes. This will give the Liberals some potent firepower.
