    Top civil servants getting chauffeured on your dime

    Bet there is someone with a sweet gig selling and servicing these limos. Would be something that never goes for tender. Average Canadian doesn't even know what they don't know due to the misinformation policy of our leaders. Works for them.

    Canada inks deal with U.S. to send astronaut around the moon

    Trudeau is a puppet for the banks. His job is to spend and is as good as anyone I have ever seen. A trip around the moon won't cost much more than a billion or so. I see no benefit to an eye witness account. I vote for sending Julie if we have to send someone. Space station party !!

    Most of the used fighter jets bought by Canada are still not in service, MPs hear

    True character trait of a Canadian is in their willingness to take on fixer-uppers. Goes well with loving a bargain and thinking we can fix anything.

    Most of the used fighter jets bought by Canada are still not in service, MPs hear

    Park them over by the submarines. It's about to get funnier with the replacement tender already closed. I could see $50B before it is done for planes we will never need. Only ever used for training really Won't be surprised to see it go to Boeing to smooth relations.

    COVID-19 'Pandemic'

    The federal government awarded a $371-million contract to secure personal protective equipment — one of the largest medical supply deals in its history — to a small company headquartered in a house in suburban Ottawa that had no apparent prior experience in PPE procurement. Imagine the smiles...

    “We’re all in this together, you idiots!”

    Curious how working from home comes into play with sick leave for PSAC employees. I'm guessing lump sum payments which really does sound like having the cake and eating it too.

    Elon Musk's Starlink offers fast internet connections to rural Canadians. But it's not cheap

    Feds just gave Bell $660 M to roll out a low earth satellite program. Can't believe Elon Musk actually missed out on a government subsidy. The new Deputy Finance Minister is a former Bell employee in an unrelated matter. Agree that Canadians are being gouged for internet service.

    Heinz will start making ketchup in Canada again

    Stepped out to Walmart today and see the ketchup war has geared up. Seems like the people at Heinz missed their Canadian friends. Very little French's and lots of Heinz on the shelves. Guaranteed they paid for that move.

    COVID 'clusters' turning up in Alberta's feedlot alley

    So anyone feel once they have the shot they will immediately stop masking up and get back to intermingling? Low odds imo.

    Trudeau Has Buried Us In Debt

    Canada has reserved more vaccine doses than any other country. Sounds more like Canada has jut spent the most money in the world to me. 60 Minutes story on Blue Flame Medical selling $5.000 ventilators for $41,000. Was it us? Clearly these people are not spending their own money. Hopefully it...

    The broken ethics and lost money of the Infrastructure Bank

    CBC story yesterday about the Irving Oil empire and the numbered companies it owns throughout New Brunswick. So many that it is difficult to get the entire picture. Article mentioned the Irving Shipyard contract awarded in 2011 for $25 B has now reached $70 B. It was not clear to me how many...

    Almost Four Years Later

    Who is in the White House does not matter to me. The impact to my daily life will be minimal at best. USA is a divided nation proven by the election results. It is not operating as a democracy. The rich are getting richer on both sides. IMO the Democrat election campaign was odd in how Bernie...

    The broken ethics and lost money of the Infrastructure Bank

    Back in June, McKenna claimed the Infrastructure Bank was involved in 55,000 subsidized projects, but said “privacy and security concerns” prevented her from revealing the location to the Parliament Budget Officer. How precious is that? The PBO, however, couldn’t get evidence of the 52,000...

    The broken ethics and lost money of the Infrastructure Bank

    Thanks to Blacklock’s Reporter, we learn that the Infrastructure Bank, created three years ago, has already rolled through two board chairs and two CEOs — in three years, for crying out loud!! — which of course resulted in the payment of $3.8 million in “termination benefits.” On April 1, the...
