    Vehicle explosion closes Canada-U.S. border crossing near Niagara Falls: FBI

    Phew!! 9/11 was an accident until the second plane hit. Glad this was isolated, but multiple crossings and the Buffalo Niagara Airport where closed proactively not because of the suspicion that this was an accident or a single event. Weirdly, both Google & YouTube are failing me to find the...

    It's Climate Change I tell'ya!! IT'S CLIMATE CHANGE!!

    Saving the planet, one wind turbine blade at a time. Didn’t read the title well and thought the ground up blades would become artificial aggregate until the end of the video. Whoops….it was almost like a video from the Onion or the Beaverton. I guess it’s good that they’re finding some purpose...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Sorta looks like plumbing…or plumbers? I thought the geology of Gaza was coral & sand making flooding the tunnels pretty much impossible. Maybe not all of it though.

    Seems only those “outside” the Middle East want it anyway.

    Hamas attacks Israel

    This doesn’t seem like the end by any means, or the beginning of a “two state solution” either. http://apple.news/A-Xu4n9ADSG2XB-EUDIok1Q

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Israel and Hamas agreed on Wednesday to a ceasefire in Gaza for at least four days, to let in aid and release at least 50 hostages captured by militants in exchange for at least 150 Palestinians jailed in Israel. The first truce in a brutal near seven-week-old war, reached after mediation by...

    Trudeau’s Newest New Carbon Tax

    Speaking from Ottawa on Monday, Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault said that Canadians will “grow very concerned” as people understand Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre’s position better. “The idea that someone who aspires to become Prime Minister of Canada doesn’t even believe in climate...

    Well, today is the Liberal/NDP Non-Coalition Coalition Budget Day!

    …& I hope the 40 million citizens of Canada have their eyes wide open on or before October 2025. Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland’s fall economic statement on Tuesday exposed a federal government that is bleeding red ink that taxpayers will be paying for generations to come. Caught off guard...

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

    The Saskatchewan Party government announced last month that SaskEnergy would stop remitting the carbon tax on natural gas on Jan. 1 in response to Ottawa's decision to pause the charge on home heating oil. The federal move largely helps those in Atlantic provinces, where it's a main source for...

    Well, today is the Liberal/NDP Non-Coalition Coalition Budget Day!

    What good are they after eight or nine years of doing the same thing?…Every year? And then you’re going to put up guard rails in a few years…the year after you stop driving? That’s a more Apt comparison…starting in 2026-27? Ugh…I just hope this is as transparent to everybody else as it is to me...

    Well, today is the Liberal/NDP Non-Coalition Coalition Budget Day!

    Holy Crap, shame this wasn’t their goal 8+ years ago…The Liberal government's fall economic statement acknowledges the cost-of-living crisis weighing on Canadians but offers few new measures to tackle it while pledging to keep deficits in check. But it’s their goal now because it’s 2015-ish...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    Israel and Hamas appeared on the cusp of agreeing to a deal in which the militant group would free dozens of hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners and a partial pause in fighting, in what would be the first major diplomatic achievement since the war began on Oct. 7. The deal involves...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    I never thought it would. I figured any kind of de-escalation would have to start with the immediate release of the kidnapped multi-national civilians from Israel from October 7 though.

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

    That’s just on your heating bill that month. No one in federal politics truly appreciates the importance of reliable and affordable electricity supply to provincial voters. “As any (provincial) elected official knows, political graveyards are littered with the bodies of those who ran afoul of...

    Police in Windsor, Ont., say they are expecting around 1,600 South Koreans to arrive to work on the town’s new electric-vehicle battery plant, which was heralded by the federal government as a major employer of Canadians? Interesting… Unions have seized on a tweet by the Windsor Police Service...

    The RCMP and government adopt EVs as winter performance concerns emerge

    While automakers worldwide are gearing up to sell millions of new all-electric vehicles in the years ahead, many customers are sticking with conventional and hybrid vehicles because of concerns about the high cost of repairs when batteries fail. After diagnostic checks, he said technicians...
