    the "blackface toonie"

    Yep. There was a movie called "Enemy of the State" with Will Smith as a guy who the gol-dang gummint was tracking with computers, Big Data, satellites, and what-have-you. I worked at a Sooper Seekrit Spy Agency at the time, and a couple of people asked me if that was really possible. I...

If the provincial government of Saskatchewan declared itself dedicated to the destruction of Canada, and attacked Manitoba, Alberta...

    OK, it's a dumb tax. Fiercely unpopular and should be repealed and replaced. However, I'll give Canada some credit for at least paying lip service to the idea of holding down its deficit, and dreaming of paying off its debt. We aren't even talking about that anymore.
