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

    Describe ‘winter’ on the coast as opposed to our northern mid-continental 5 month long winter wonderland please.

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

    We’ve got kids in central B.C. where their heat is only from electric baseboards, and though their winters are comparatively mild compared to the prairies, it’s prohibitively expensive. This is on the outskirts of Vernon in the Okanagan Valley. MonthHigh / Low(°C) January2° / -4° February5° /...

    Honest question here. The paediatric cardiologist in the video & his spouse, where they informed by that school that their kids were being teased (?) or where the kids encouraged to keep it secret by school policy in fear of the reaction of the parents to the children’s safety? Were the kids...

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

    By to “burn oil” regarding affordable heat, you’re referring to heating oil used primarily in Ontario and Quebec and Atlantic Canada and New England and New York State and Pennsylvania (?) or something else? Are you using the term to also include diesel fuel used for heat in Nunavut and other...

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

    Solar & Wind to supplement…yes, but as base-load…no, which is hardly Luddite territory. In a -45°C prairie winter night with no wind, in the near future when the push is for no natural gas heating from our furnaces….the thought of only wind & solar electrical power generation isn’t comforting…&...

    What are you doing on this Labour Day long weekend?

    Just what needed to be done. Times are tight for everybody, and Lord only knows what it would’ve cost if the city came out and did it, & then tacked it onto their property taxes. They are good people just trying to get by. Tough enough that they’re still struggling to try and learn English. I’ve...

    What are you doing on this Labour Day long weekend?

    The neighbours across the street bought the house that came complete with the brush pile…..which came from their next door neighbour from before they bought the house 2yrs ago. It would have been cheaper (& less work) for the neighbours landlord to just throw it over the fence or haul it next...

    King dons new tartan as he attends Highland Games

    I’m still blown away that there’s a “Royal Family Channel.” Do you have to subscribe to it and if so how much?

    What are you doing on this Labour Day long weekend?

    Geez….the timing in the foot race of harvest to get a ‘day off’ on Labour Day. How close to done are you? Time wise I mean for the last 1/4 after heavy rain. I’ve still got another one of these to get rid of this morning (been procrastinating) and another one to load….& then I’ll be down to one...

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

    That’s apparent, but used as a measuring stick, but I will gladly use a different measuring stick. Which one is acceptable? Canada’s geographical location and size and climate have a huge relevance to its ability to functionally thrive vs it’s pollution and emissions portion of the global whole...

    Trudeau’s Newest New Carbon Tax

    Who else would it inevitably get passed onto? The government? As you have pointed out, isn’t that the point? To make getting to work to earn a living and pay our taxes or heating our homes in the winter so prohibitively expensive that we need to change our evil ways??

    Yeah. Thirds. Interesting is the timestamps on the above screenshots from the BodyCam: Above at 18:28:03 Above at 18:28:11 Above at 18:28:26 Shot already fired through the windshield at 18:28:29. I wonder who felt threatened in this situation? In the 20 seconds between 18:28:11 and 18:28:29...

    Black Lives Matter-Ugliness of Racism.

    A friend of ours from Mexico (who passed away a few years ago) had an interesting take on what you’re saying above. He was not a big fan of law-enforcement, & he was not a criminal. In having a discussion about the above with him, as he was teaching us some of the do’s and don’ts with respect...

    True. You are correct. I concur with your assessment of the situation. It gets nowhere. China is used as perspective to the US or Britain or Canada, etc…in this Net Zero economic gamesmanship. What other nation should be used instead. I’m open to suggestions & we all have Google….& it’s...

    Trudeau’s Newest New Carbon Tax

    This week federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault blasted regulators in the four Atlantic provinces for permitting gas station operators to pass on the cost of the federal carbon tax and the new federal clean fuel regulations to consumers. Until July 1, drivers and home-heating consumers...

    Really puts the rush to Net Zero in perspective. I thought Canada was leading the way as an example to other nations as to what NOT to do in crippling its economy for no relevant difference whatsoever. http://apple.news/Awaiu3OqzSeC6O_gsxWvjDg

    Public Inquiries into Emergencies Act begin September 19

    The criminal trial for two of the most prominent faces of the trucker-led protests that paralyzed the core of the country’s capital for more than three weeks early last year is set to begin Tuesday. The demonstrations prompted one of the largest police responses in Canadian history and largely...
