Thats okay. Out here on the Prairie weve been stockpiling our used plowshares to forge into guns.
On the wet coast, only the terminally stupid gave up any guns the first time round. My cousin was one of them. She gave up her father's unregistered handgun he had since the 1930s.

Contractor. GNR again. Was doing to a refrigeration plumbing gig but… the hours just weren’t steady enough.
That is happening all over the place. Lack of major projects going on. My son finished his hours for Pipe fitting on Kitamat LNG. Right now he is working construction with us. We do mostly insurance jobs and commercial, so reasonably steady but not what he trained for. The money is nowhere near what we make on union jobs.

Carney’s current statements don’t just fail to align with his past statements, they contradict his most cherished values, everything he’s said, written and fought for in the last five years as an economic adviser to Trudeau and as United Nations special envoy on climate.

Carney’s economic vision is spelled out in his 508-page manifesto, Value(s): Building a Better World for All, a book so radical, aggressive and detailed in its top-down prescription for controlling Canada’s economy it would make an author of a Soviet five-year plan blush at its audacity.

Does he favour Trudeau’s carbon tax? No, not any more. He has gone so far as to label Trudeau’s carbon tax as “divisive.” He promised to axe it for families, farmers and small and medium-sized businesses.

Against pipelines? Not in theory. He promises to meet with Canada’s premiers to see if they will agree to build pipelines.

It’s all good then, right?

Not so fast.
Carney — known as the single most influential figure in driving investors and financial institutions worldwide to adopt carbon policies — envisions a Canada where every single private financial decision and transaction is to be classified and regulated by a government elite.

His justification for such unprecedented bureaucratic control? His fears about climate change, which drives the need for “radical” action, as he himself puts it.

In Carney’s world, we won’t be focused on efficiency and prosperity, but on asking whether every stock we buy and every purchase we make comes from a company with a stamp of approval from Ottawa’s climate bureaucracy.

It will be a world of endless energy audits and reports, perpetual paperwork and red tape, one sure to please activist Greta Thunberg, whom Carney repeatedly gushes about in the book, not to mention Carney’s wife Diana Fox Carney, a green energy policy consultant.

The biggest driver of change will be carbon taxes, Carney said. “Meaningful carbon prices are a cornerstone of any effective climate policy framework. The Canadian federal carbon pricing framework is a model for others.”

So…??? Carney has promised to instead force industrial emitters to pay more and establish incentives to help Canadians reduce their own emissions.

Before Carney signed Friday’s order, Poilievre panned the new prime minister’s gesture, saying the legislation the Liberals introduced the carbon tax still remained on the books.

“Until Parliament is recalled this carbon tax law will be the law of the land.”

Poilievre said Carney’s promise was nothing more than an attempt to “hide” the policy from voters on the eve of an election call Carney publicly endorsed carbon taxes before entering politics.

So…will Carney recall Parliament to snuff out this Consumer Carbon Tax, before it jumps AGAIN April Fools Day? Or is this all just more smoke & mirrors?

So that means BC will not eliminate its carbon scam tax. Eby has said he will remove it once the federal legislation is removed. Since carnage is not actually removing the enabling legislation, Eby can keep our tax without actually breaking yet another election promise.

(YouTube & Can Carney be the Prime Minister without a seat?)

In Nepean, the Conservatives have placed their hopes in Barbara Bal, a staff sergeant and former reserve member of the Royal Canadian Artillery, who prompted gender equality changes in the Ottawa Police Service after she filed a complaint with Ontario's Human Rights Tribunal in 2012, alleging she was denied opportunities based on her gender.

"I've earned my place here by living, working and raising my family in this community," Bal said in a social media video.

At the outset of the campaign, Carney told reporters he felt a connection to Nepean, in part because he was the best man at the wedding of hockey executive Peter Chiarelli, who grew up in the area? Really?

(Carney and his family have long owned a home in a different part of Ottawa, the tony neighbourhood of Rockcliffe Park, near the official residences of the governor general and the prime minister.)
