    Trudeau’s nitrogen policy will decimate Canadian farming

    If he were serious and actually cared and this was anything more than politically driven optics - he would have worked out the details of the 'how' BEFORE announcing the amount. And given that we've just learned his mandates for travel were NOT science based we have every reason to believe...

    Opinion: There’s no such thing as a free lunch, especially with government spending

    Well, if we're being fair a sweeping change in the tax landscape like this could easily include a new definition, so the current law wouldn't really be entirely relevant, just his proposed definition.

    Run Faster: Polievre

    Well it ain't over yet :) There are hints of even more weirdness on the horizon. Three years is a long time in politics. I've been pretty good at predicting politics for a few decades now as much as anyone can, and even I can't even see all the wild things that might happen. Will justin step...

    Run Faster: Polievre

    I'm 100 percent certain that is true, but Sask and Alberta make up a very small part of Canada population wise, and he's going to need the big boys to win. Fortunately he's doing very well with the younger (under 65) in bc, and pretty good with the younger in Ontario so far. But - that's not...

    Jamil Jivani: Conservatism is the new counterculture, Liberals are 'the man'

    uhhh - not to be "that" guy or anything, but i think you were supposed to stay out of your secretary's drawers until AFTER it's ok to harass women again. Oh wait, i just reread that. Never mind, carry on.

    Run Faster: Polievre

    Interstingly (and contrary to history), that's not actually that accurate. Polling suggests that those over 65 aren't supporting him nearly as much and would prefer the libs or Charest at this time. But i suspect that may change moving forward when he gets more of a path to be exposed to them...

    Run Faster: Polievre

    Love him or hate him, he's absolutely killing the social media marketing of his brand. I suspect that's part of why younger people (who use social media more) are his fastest growing support base.

    I found that amusing - but if anyone asks i'm totally going to deny that.

    More than 10,000 Canadians received a medically-assisted death in 2021: report

    https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/more-than-10-000-canadians-received-a-medically-assisted-death-in-2021-report-1.6025922 Personally i don't have a big problem with this. If an animal is suffering badly with no chance of recovery we put it down as a mercy. We should have the right to decide that...

    Jamil Jivani: Conservatism is the new counterculture, Liberals are 'the man'

    I can't even find my duct-tape!!! I mean, i've got some electricians tape and that would probably work but i don't want to look like some sort of frikkin amateur. As to harassing the non whites - sure enough my whip end has frayed and now it doesn't go 'snap CRACK" when i whip it, it's more of...

    Opinion: There’s no such thing as a free lunch, especially with government spending

    Says who? What if he's a programmer? or a doctor? or an accountant who serves foreign national companies? All producing value but not buying any goods in any substantial amount. So now you're ONLY focused on the goods producing sector, which would place such an incredible burden on them our...

    Opinion: There’s no such thing as a free lunch, especially with government spending

    But under that model a self employed person who makes something or delivers service pays no personal tax OR tax he leaves in the business. So nobody is paying taxes on those goods or services. All you would do is de-incentivize the corporate structure and that would have some pretty serious...

    Jamil Jivani: Conservatism is the new counterculture, Liberals are 'the man'

    Yes, that was it. Sounds like the NP is reading your stuff (y) Justin's antics bode badly for justin but the libs have undoubtably been feeling that he'll be gone one way or another within the next three years mores likely and if they put in a new leader they can say 'oh that was him, we're...

    Opinion: There’s no such thing as a free lunch, especially with government spending

    Does it? The fact is those with lots of money have never had a problem making buttloads more long before the corporate structure came along. They hardly needed to add a layer of complexity to make more or get taxed less. In reality the corporate structure has allowed the middle class to enjoy...

    Opinion: There’s no such thing as a free lunch, especially with government spending

    Well, you raise good points of course but i think that a deeper dive shows that while the differences between an 'actual' person and the "person" status granted to corporations has some major differences. First, the corps were granted 'person' status so that they could lawfully enter...

    LILLEY: Court records show Trudeau brought in vaccine mandates for travel purely based on politics

    https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/lilley-court-records-show-trudeau-brought-in-vaccine-mandates-for-travel-purely-based-on-politics This is a very bad thing. Whether you agree or not with mandates it is terrible that our gov't would base such a huge and life impacting decision on...
