I thought party leaders couldn’t be the speaker of the house? Isn’t she cocaptain with somebody we’ve never heard of who doesn’t even have a seat in Parliament, of the Green party?

Don’t worry, supporters of this policy claim; there’s nothing to worry about, it’s not about individual podcasters — it’s only companies earning more than $10 million per year. The players making more than $10 million per year are the platforms that content producers like me and millions of...

The federal Liberals have been embroiled in an inordinate number of political controversies THIS year. Allegations of Chinese interference in our democratic election process, for instance. Battling Facebook over the Online News Act. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s high-profile separation from...

The CRTC just announced that any “online undertakings” with annual revenues of more than $10 million must now register with Ottawa. This includes social media sites such as Facebook or Instagram, streaming sites such as YouTube and Netflix, and even podcast providers. The round-up is all part...

My suspicion is that very few Canadians are aware of quite how bizarre the rest of the world now finds the country. When it thinks of it at all it sees is a country that used to be renowned for its liberalism now most noted for its proto-authoritarianism. A country whose leaders think they can...

Going to give it a couple days for the wind to dry things out after the weekend rain & that from earlier this morning…, then we will pull everything (most of the ones that are ready) up by the roots & hang in the garage rafters. The others that are further behind will get transplanted into pots...

Last week, Canadian House of Commons Speaker Anthony Rota invited a 98-year-old man named Yaroslav Hunka to attend a speech by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Rota called Hunka a “Canadian hero,” and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau cheered for Hunka alongside lawmakers. But Hunka, it...

Taking out the garbage & recycling, and had to walk past these things, & remembered they existed.

Consistent. What we need is innovation, so we can do more with less, or nothing at all. “For years, our dedicated troops have struggled to be effective with broken and aging equipment”, explained Defence Minister Bill Blair. “But this weekend at a BBQ, I watched this kid decimate three grown...

The province is warning people in Saskatchewan that SaskPower rates will be dramatically impacted if the Liberal government does what it says it will do. Federal Energy and Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson says provincial access to new funding for electricity projects will depend...

The Prime Minister’s Office has dismissed comments from a former Indian diplomat, who says there is a “credible rumour” that Justin Trudeau’s plane “was full of cocaine” during the recent G20 meeting in New Delhi. Deepak Vohra, a former Indian ambassador to Sudan, made the accusations Monday on...

As Canada’s Parliamentary Budget Officer has reported, average Canadian households are already paying hundreds of dollars more in carbon taxes every year than they receive in rebates. Yves Giroux says those costs – the result of the negative impact of carbon pricing on the economy – will rise...

I’m more than willing to step back and out of this one also, or instead. I just aren’t that vested in this one, as it’s more of a curiosity than anything else. I concur with your assessment of the situation. There isn’t any give and take on either side on this issue, and earlier I tried to find...

My point was, most of the traits that she states that Conservative Parents have with the variance between them being their levels of transparency is beyond stereotyping from the outside looking in as neither a parent or conservative, as is her claim as of 2023 anyway. I’m sure she has some good...

It’s always kind of interesting to get a perception and perspective from the outside looking in (forest for the trees, sort of thing). So from the highlights (lowlights?) that are interesting and important from the outside, the Iran Tweet thing was worth mentioning, but WE & SNC-Lavalin &...

I’ve only made it just over 4 minutes into this video so far. The “video essayist” makes a point of pointing out that she’s a former teacher and not a lawyer, and pointing out that her perspective comes from ‘pretending’ to be a conservative for her video research…by immersing herself is the...

I have my point of view based upon my own personal experience with a school deciding what I did, or didn’t, need to know about my own child, & it had nothing to do with a pronoun debate. If the school has actually been interested in the welfare of the children instead of its own legal standing...

This has been a tough question to answer, with Mis/Cis/Disinformation abounding from multiple sources/angles, & I still don’t have the answer…. Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre has been spreading his “axe the tax” message for months now telling people that when you tax the farmer who grows...
