This is from 2 weeks ago: (YouTube & “LILLEY UNLEASHED: Poilievre on Trump, Carney, tariffs and the border”) After almost a decade of striving to keep Canadian energy projects to a minimum, the Liberals have finally begun muttering about the necessity of building new east-west pipelines as a...

In the short term, U.S. tariffs and trade barriers may lead to economic hardship and belt-tightening. But it would also force us to change the way we operate as a country, making us both more efficient and resilient. As Canadians, we have to change the inefficient way we have been governed...

Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre has said that, were he to form government, he would impose harsh imprisonment for fentanyl trafficking, including mandatory life sentences for major dealers. This is a laudable idea, even if his proposed legal mechanism for enacting these reforms is...

Huh…announced by Anita Anand, while Parliament is Prorogued, and I’m assuming she won’t be involved in any of the above. She’s out….once the next election is called, whenever that happens, assuming Carney doesn’t use the Emergencies Act to stall that off in light of Trump tariffs, etc…...

Well, with Parliament prorogued, & Trudeau STILL the PM throwing around taxpayer dollars like they’re Liberal campaign funds, & so far nothing but softball questions from the legacy media towards the Liberal Party leadership contenders…with no depth of explanations for their claims or...

Zelensky has warned that Trump has succumbed to Russian “disinformation”, while the US leader has accused his counterpart of starting the war and branded him a “dictator without elections”. 22 January 2025: "It's time to MAKE A DEAL," Trump writes on Truth Social. "We can do it the easy way or...

Is that really the point of Trumps pronouncement? Why would Trump be threatening to remove access to Starlink from Ukraine in the last couple of days? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starlink Is that to encourage Ukraine and Europe to be more self-sufficient, in the last couple of days...

We all should. Who can we really trust the most out of the current crop of PM contenders to actually get rid of it?

The days all run together at this point, and I can’t remember if it was Wednesday morning or Thursday morning (I am leaning towards Wednesday morning) where it was -49°C with the slight breeze that morning…& then the weather changed. & with the amount of snow we’ve had this year…& it getting...

On April 1, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s national carbon tax, aka the consumer fuel tax – applying to all provinces except Quebec and B.C., which have federally-approved pricing systems – will raise the cost of gasoline by 20.91 cents per litre and the cost of natural gas for home heating by...

How did we get here, and at what cost to Canadians beyond the Quebec-Ontario corridor? Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, now a resigned leader holding onto power until a replacement is chosen, committed Canada to a massive infrastructure project that will lock future governments into obligations...

With Dhalla out of the Liberal leadership race, that means there are four contenders left: Mark Carney, Chrystia Freeland, Karina Gould and Frank Baylis. So…which one will get voted off the island next? They all have skeletons in their closets. Mr. Carney and Ms. Freeland are now the...
