    Conservative interns posing as protesters

    Interns working in the PMO were enlisted to heckle Justin Trudeau during a news conference outside Parliament.

    Global Warming: still the ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    From what I recall of that discussion you ended up talking about your personal BS after you ran out of your "facts".

    Global Warming: still the ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Where's your evidence for that? We are in an interglacial period and as the transition to a glacial phase of the cycle is a cold dry process that takes thousands of years to develop from a relatively tiny forcing of about -0.2 w/m^2 then I seriously doubt that as long as we're pumping any...

    Queen’s to Honour Climate Extremist

    What is a climate extremist? It's very well established that climate change is happening based on a wide spectrum of observations, we have the mechanism which was worked out over 150 years ago and a rough estimate of climate sensitivity developed more than 100 years ago. All this backed up by...

    Looking good on the taxpayers nickle

    What ever happened to fiscally responsible conservatives, as we've been seeing recently there was a huge contract awarded by the federal conservatives to Irving Shipbuilding of $288 million to just look at building a new class of Arctic patrol vessels, most of the actual work to be done in...
