Great news for Alberta, Cannuck. Hope the negotiating over specifics is quick and Alberta jobs can start coming back - not just work in the patches, but in all the businesses that benefit from them. :smile:
Yes. :smile:
Sounds like the Liberals hold may be slipping a bit, Eagle. The PM just publicly apologized for his remark about 'phasing out the oilsands' and went on to say that he is 'proud' to support the pipelines his government has already approved and is happy to hear the news concerning the approval of the Keystone XL line by the US government.
Alberta will be rejoicing today. I can't imagine the meltdown happening with all the extreme lefties right now.
Oh the irony, that two of the most green-minded governments in Canada should be overseeing the expansion of pipelines.
Are the liberals still going to lay crippling carbon taxes and/or buy carbon credits on the international market?
After coming out solidly in favor of pipelines today, Justin will have to appease his leftie base - I believe he will go ahead with trying to implement his climate change plans, Eagle. Will he be successful? I hope not. Ontario is a prime and ugly example of climate change policies gone amok.
Eagle is not referring to an actual net made of webbing, Machjo. He is referring to what are often called social safety nets - such as welfare.
i have no probelms with vegetarians or vegans per se, but they do consume far more than their fair share of vegetables and as such, I feel that imposing a 75% tax rate on them is of critical importance
We will have to look into what the Paris Agreement says about dumping 100s of millions of gallons of raw sewage into the St Lawrence river.... We may have already broken the agreement
To catch sustainable and ecologically friendly fish
hopefully not the kind the chinese bosses put up to protect their cars from the people that jump out the windows at break time
wannabe Bullsh!tter...^
Trudeau is already dizzy from turning which ever way the wind blows at the moment. I don't think he gives a damn about pipe lines, he just tries to appease whomever squawks the loudest, the ones for or against it.
When the environmentalists are on his aXX he's going to phase out the oil industry. When the pro pipeline are after him big time, he's all for the pipeline.
I think the thought of opposing Trump makes him mess his drawers!
Oh well, let's see what he thinks next week.
Trudeau specifically referenced decades or a century before oil is phased-out. As the old expression goes; the devil is always in the details
He may no like oil, but he does understand that the resource sector (incl oil) is what pays the bills in Canada
not if they wanna survive the next election without getting pipe wrenched in the hard hats
It's a good thing now. How could it be bad if 60% of Albertans will get a check in the mail instead and we already can't afford to drive so it's like a win/win, . . . . . right?? Why is everybody laughing???
Company 4X4 and a Dozer if that wasn't enough. Did I mention the 18hrs/day?? Overtime for the last 3 weeks in every month.
It's not just a crowd pleaser though. Done sensibly and logically it can kill several birds with one stone. A) Reduced expense in arresting and prosecuting the end user. B) A great source of tax. I've done all the math. They could tax marijuana at 5X the rate of tobacco and still keep prices well below current street prices, which leads to C) A substantial reduction in the control of marijuana production and distribution by organized crime.
Marijuana is the cash cow of organized crime in Canada. The less of the market they control, the better.
Trudeau should get along well with Trump.....
He seems like an old friend of his mother

In the later book, Trump wrote about his personal life, in the mid 1970s. He wrote a bit about Montreal, and how he met his first wife, Ivana Trump there.
And he described the scene in Manhattan when he was a single guy:

In the later book, Trump wrote about his personal life, in the mid 1970s. He wrote a bit about Montreal, and how he met his first wife, Ivana Trump there.
And he described the scene in Manhattan when he was a single guy:
“Wild things happened all the time back then, and nobody thought very much of it. For instance, one day a friend called me at the office and said he needed to set up a date for a certain well-known married woman. This woman was visiting from out of town and was, he said — using a typical swinging-seventies expression — 'really hot.'
“I had a girlfriend at that time, and so did he, but I knew a guy named Ben who was very worldly-wise. Ben, I was sure, could serve as this woman’s escort and be discreet about it. I called him immediately, and though he said he was tired and had been planning to stay home that night, Ben eventually agreed, as a personal favor to me, to take this woman out. She turned out to be the wife of a man who was then the prime minister of a major country.”
Really? A wife of a major country’s prime minister, partying like crazy in Manhattan in the mid-seventies? “I had a girlfriend at that time, and so did he, but I knew a guy named Ben who was very worldly-wise. Ben, I was sure, could serve as this woman’s escort and be discreet about it. I called him immediately, and though he said he was tired and had been planning to stay home that night, Ben eventually agreed, as a personal favor to me, to take this woman out. She turned out to be the wife of a man who was then the prime minister of a major country.”
More from the book:
“I’d heard stories about this lady, but I never thought much of them until that night. We met at the house of the friend who’d phoned me. After we’d all chatted for a while in the living room, the four of us who already knew each other drifted out to the kitchen, leaving Ben and Madame X in the living room to get better acquainted. Which they did. In fact, when we drifted back in, about ten minutes later, she and Ben were involved in an incredibly torrid scene on the couch. I remember standing there and thinking to myself, “well, Donald, you’re not in Queens anymore.”
I wonder who that could be...
