“We expect a 25-basis-point hike from the Bank of Canada this week,” said CIBC senior economist Andrew Grantham. “What we’ve learned from the last rate hike is that (the central bank) would rather err on the side of doing too much to get inflation under control, knowing that they can cut...

Michael Geist, the University of Ottawa’s Canada research chair in internet law, said “the government appears to have caved on its own legislation.” “Its planned regulations toss aside the principles it insisted were essential, replaced by government regulations on unique financial thresholds...

Day Lilies are coming in (just started today) now also: These are….prolific. We’ve had to thin them out and give bunches away several several times already. They take a year or two to get established, but once they do you better like them!! Hell I keep them in check with the lawnmower...

Tact, wrote Abraham Lincoln, is the ability to describe others as they see themselves. Justin Trudeau was in Latvia on Monday, ahead of this week’s important NATO summit in neighbouring Lithuania, patting himself and his government on the back for the contribution toward resisting Russia’s...

Does a person have to be religious to be a good person? Does a person have to be religious to respect their family and friends and elders? Does a person have to be religious to not do evil upon others? Are those above qualities irrelevant to your God? He or She or They or Them is only concerned...

Losers of what though?

Hey, what about that nearly $30 billion subsidy going to Stellantis and Volkswagen, compliments of Ford and Trudeau, to develop and manufacture electric batteries? We could have earned $30 billion from Germany and Japan, but as Mr. Trudeau, wizard entrepreneur, wisely warned us there was “no...

While we are on the business of foreign interference, could we not have — as it were — a “sidecar” inquiry into election interference on the home front: viz, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporations blundering and false (CBC has, in its tepid way apologized) insertions into the recent and...

This is good, & pretty funny!!! http://apple.news/A3AVT5tKbRead6sYQ_vI_eA So how many “special raconteurs — sorry, rapporteurs” are now in charge of stripping the veil from the nefarious infiltration of peaceful Canada’s pristine electoral system? I think a dozen at least would be the minimum —...

…& own their own slaves.

https://apple.news/ADgrn4rgzTv27eLpgUirT2g (Calculations using data from the Government of Canada’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions website show that, if all our gasoline and diesel-powered cars and trucks were taken off the road for one year, the total emissions avoided would offset China’s emissions...

Think of this like a ‘second separate budget’ just like we’ve recently gotten a “second separate carbon tax”….so this might be independent of the CBC’s “other” taxpayer funded budget….& all things have to be ‘administered’ by an ever expanding Liberal Civil Service and that’s not cheap. The CBC...

The major platforms are annoyed at the Liberals’ Bill C-18, passed just before the House of Commons rose for the summer. The bill, known as the Online News Act, would make platforms such as Facebook and Instagram pay what is effectively a royalty when a Canadian news story gets linked on social...

Another of the second crop popped… And once these all come and go, then another species of Lilies should almost be ready to pop…

Well, like the young (17yr old) man in question, France doesn’t have “Criminal Records” before someone turns 18yrs old, so the consequences are, from the fires and riots and looting, less Libraries and Health Clinics and so on in these neighborhoods, where these people would’ve lived because...

44 years…’cuz 1979 is where record keeping must have begun? Or everything before 1979 is unreliable? Or something predating 1979 is contradictory to the current narrative? Or 1979 is arbitrarily chosen to make the record-keeping easier? Some other factors…? Because….1979? Uncharted…since 1979...

CBC/Radio-Canada's corporate position is that the Online News Act will help level the playing field (???) and contribute to a healthy news ecosystem in Canada, just like the $BILLION$ Dollar Annual Taxpayer Funding that only CBC/Radio-Canada receives that all other Canadian news outlets do not…...

This week, the federal government will return a small portion of some Canadians’ hard-earned tax dollars to their bank accounts. The Liberals are calling the move a one-time “Grocery Rebate,” supposedly meant to make up for higher food prices caused by inflation. However, in practice, the...
