    B.C. announces it is making daylight time permanent after years of promises

    Everyone will adapt, but it’s got some growing pains involved. That’s all I’m saying, and that’s coming from somebody in Saskatchewan that hasn’t changed their times seasonally for decades, but Alberta and Manitoba and Montana and North Dakota all still do and Border Saskatchewan.

    Trudeau Makes Good on Ethical Energy to Germany

    This is almost sad and funny at the same time in a pathetic sort of way. http://apple.news/AfuVvf76WRkKAmZJDu5SIog Hodgson did not say which countries were calling, but he acknowledged that it could take some time for Canadian producers to respond. If we start now, we might have the approval...

    B.C. announces it is making daylight time permanent after years of promises

    Not changing time zones twice a year is the easy part. Adapting to a world that changes its time zones around you twice a year….that’s something else entirely different.

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    Cute. What do you call it? A police action? Special military operation? Bombing campaign? Incursion? Intervention? Pre-emptive non-invasion to prevent future Iranian invasions? Assault? Onslaught? Inroad to regime change? Foray? Trespass of Iranian airspace with munitions? Oh, a campaign? Just...

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    Well, Iranian oil accounts for approximately 12% to 15% of China's total crude oil imports. While official customs data often masks these, Iran's exports to China reached around 1.38 to 1.4 million barrels per day in 2025, making China the purchaser of over 80% of Iran's oil. But Wait! There’s...

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    I do actually understand where Starmer is coming from. Did the US really have a legal basis under imminent threat to invade Iran? That’s Keir Starmer’s hold back and hesitation. That was then, before Hezbollah attacked British soil on Cyprus, which is a different situation altogether...

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    Well, damned if you do &/or still attacked by Iranian proxy Hezbollah if you don’t. Britain “could” just roll up in the Mediterranean and retaliate against Hezbollah independent of either Israel or America Trump, forging its own path with a clear conscience that it stood by its own morals and...

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    Anywho, Israel and the United States pounded Iran on Monday in an escalating campaign that U.S. President Donald Trump said would likely take several weeks. Tehran and its allies hit back across the region, striking Israel and a variety of targets inside Gulf states, including energy facilities...

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    Well, since this is the “Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis” thread…leading the attack on this topic…”I’ll take Vladimir Putin for $200 Alex!” (?) I’m assuming that’s not where you’re going though.😁

    Ahhh…ok. I was confused by the… So in the latest new chapter or episode of this ongoing goat rodeo, Hezbollah had pulled them (being Lebanon) into a new conflict with Israel…but they really meant the old same old etc…& not a new conflict? Ok, so “Many Lebanese were angry that Hezbollah had...

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    Pulled them into a new conflict how? Probably not through prank phone calls. Does it? If so then why? Due to being attacked by an Iranian proxy from Lebanon that Lebanon doesn’t have a firm grip on (?) or something more nefarious and conspirial?

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    Many Lebanese were angry that Hezbollah had pulled them into a new conflict with Israel, just 15 months after the last war that devastated swathes of the country. In a social media post, Prime Minister Nawaf Salam wrote that the rocket attacks on Israel were “an irresponsible and suspicious act...

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    Ukrainians celebrated the disruption of the shadow alliance between Iran and Russia, rightly calling Tehran’s military aid to Moscow “a gross violation of international law.” Anyone criticizing the U.S-Israeli strikes, and the killing of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as a violation of international...

    Air passenger advocate takes fight to new heights with constitutional challenge

    “WestJet employees said they tried to look for hotel rooms, and then they said, ‘no, everything is shut down. You’re on your own,’” she said. “And they left. They just left. So we were left in the airport. Everything was shut down.” “They made us responsible to find our own hotel and to book...

    Which seven countries? Are any of them shown on the above map? The U.S.-Israeli air war against Iran expanded on Monday with no end in sight, engulfing Lebanon with Israel responding to strikes by Hezbollah, while Tehran fired missiles and drones at Israel, Gulf states and a British air base in...

    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    "America has the most powerful military on earth, and the IRGC no longer has a headquarters," CENTCOM said. As missiles continued to rain on Tehran, President Donald Trump said the war could go on for a month, telling the Daily Mail that "it's always been a four week process." (?? Then what??)...
