I posted the below in a different thread but I'm sticking it here too. Lets see which thread has the longest legs.....

Well, looks like the Alberta border might soon start at the western edge of New Brunswick: http://nationalpost.com/news/politics/its-a-big-threat-canadian-officials-say-u-s-has-resisted-efforts-to-avoid-shutdown-of-key-line-5-oil-pipeline Officials in Michigan are looking to force the shutdown...

I know you're on the outside looking in, like we are with much of the intricacies of American Politics, but this one was a shit show from the outset. We have had a series of GG's with huge senses of entitlement over time, and these are political appointments (we don't get to vote for our GG) but...

Weird how this is quiet a year later, with the openness & transparent cooperation of the Chinese Gov't?

Or somewhere close to it....

Meh.....(yeah, I've been busy for a few weeks, or maybe months?), this has been coming since Payette's appointment. Going to be tough to find another Family Friend of the Trudeau's who's also a former Astronaut who's also a woman to accept a gig that pays a bit under $300G's/yr and even with her...

A Conservative MP from Regina is blaming the federal Liberal government for layoffs at Evraz Steel in Regina. http://www.cjme.com/2020/12/17/conservative-mp-blames-evraz-layoffs-on-liberal-government/ As of Thursday, 591 employees in the tubular division were laid off indefinitely...

Announcing his new plan for getting to net-zero on carbon emissions, Justin Trudeau told Canadians: “If we trust scientists with our health, as we do, then we must also trust their research and their expertise when it comes to other existential threats. And that includes climate change. There is...

His Climate Barbie promised on his behalf not to raise the carbon Tax above $50/ton before the last Federal Election where the Liberals got less votes (but more seats) than the next closest party.

SaskPower customers will be paying more starting Jan. 1 as a result of an increase in the federal carbon tax. http://www.cjme.com/2020/12/17/carbon-tax-increase-to-be-reflected-on-saskpower-bills/ The Crown corporation said Thursday it will be increasing the carbon tax amount on customers’...

The final match-up in the carbon playoffs will now play out over two days in Ottawa. Starting on Tuesday, Saskatchewan lawyers will try to convince the nation’s highest court to strike down what they call an unconstitutional tax that risks destabilizing the federation...

For the last year of this COVID 19 thing, we've all gone through the motions and followed changing & at times conflicting guidance regarding trying to protect ourselves & others from this disease from 'wear a mask' (but an N95 or equal to) to 'don't wear a mask' ('cuz of shortages?) to...

These are weird times. A year ago this would have sounded like tinfoil hat type fiction....but here we are. http://ca.reuters.com/article/idUSKBN27W2I7 It is not accurate to say MRC-5 cell lines are the same cells from an aborted foetus. They are cell lines that have been grown in a laboratory...

Ironic Pic. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Arctic_camel The High Arctic camel, from the mid-Pliocene epoch, is a fossil camel related to the fossil genus Paracamelus from which modern camels arose. It is also related to the extinct Ice Age Yukon giant camel. Collagen-containing fossils were...

I'll take a stab at this one (& I'm not Trump Fan-Boy) in an effort to transition this thread back to Canadian Politics. I don't recall Trump being caught in Blackface/Brownface so many times that he could even tell you how many times he'd done it....but maybe Trump isn't woke enough like our...

Left handed people (including myself) are about 10% of a given population with some variances. The population of Canada is about 37,500,000 or so making left handed Canadians about 3,750,000 or so (larger than the population of Montreal). Transgender men, women or non-binary individuals are...

This is such a weird situation (the American Election, not Canadians arguing about it, though that's weird too). The US Race is close enough that until the State Certificates come out on Dec 8th I think everything else if just pissing in the wind. It's the media hired pollsters (& we know that...

Hmmmm....upon verification, reality, or something like it....seems a bit different: http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/pompeo-biden-smooth-transition-1.5796934...

I've heard that Biden finally won, Trump magnanimously conceded, that the two of them are holding hands, giving each other personal grooming tips, singing Kumbaya, & sharing a non-alcoholic margarita with two straws. They're in the White House now, sharing the big chair in the Oval Office...

I don’t really think it matters who wins between Biden and Trump. Regardless who wins America loses and there’s gonna be a shit storm of fall out for months to come.
