I'm quite enjoying watching the transition of power take place.

Interesting the woke Trudie announcing only through Global efforts can our economy recover hit a record high 13.7% unemployment

Combined with the increase in jobs, Statistics Canada said the country recovered 10.6 per cent of employment losses and absences related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
"The rise in the overall unemployment to 13.7 per cent, the highest on record, shouldn't be taken as a sign of underlying weakness, since it simply represents more out-of-work Canadians stating that they are now looking for work,"

But the hated Trump and his America first rhetoric said that the US would start rebounding in the 3rd quarter got a surprise yesterday with a 10.4% drop in unemployment to 13.3%. When will the Global community help give us boost like the USA just saw?

I hope we see transition in power here in Canada before it's too late

The cruel irony for flossy is that the only change in power he's actually seeing (but doesn't know it yet) is watching the power base in economic capability shift farther West... Add to this that SK and AB have both openly stated that they won't be existing as a pseudo-colony of Eastern Canada any longer, the functional power will be shifting to Regina and Edmonton must to the angst of Ottawa

U.S. Hiring Rebounds, Defying Forecasts for Surge in Joblessness

America’s labor market defied forecasts for a Depression-style surge in unemployment, signaling the economy is picking up faster than anticipated from the coronavirus-inflicted recession amid reopenings and government stimulus.


A broad gauge of payrolls rose by 2.5 million in May, trouncing forecasts for a sharp decline following a 20.7 million tumble the prior month that was the largest in records back to 1939, according to Labor Department data Friday. The jobless rate fell to 13.3% from 14.7%......….More

Oh btw the article is from Bloomberg so not a pro Trump article

Irving Oil is shipping Alberta oil from Vancouver aaaaallllll the way down through the Panama Canal and aaaalllll the way back up to Nfld for refining.


Yep, Alberta oil being used that far East
Well thank god it went by tanker. Ya know, because O'Bumwad said that pipelines generate carbon emissions. Unlike burning 1 gallon of absolutely filthy bunker fuel just to move a tanker 3 meters.


Leftards are the kind of morons that think (pardon the exaggeration) you can f*ck for virginity.

You would think Bloomberg should have been all over that no?

Yep.

Sort of like Trudeaus paid for media doing negative Trudeau stories.

False narrative.

Perhaps you should read the actual report instead of relying on the MSM.
