@gpatterson828 Good plan! All other Provinces should do this and in my view it should apply to all religions!

Joly says "We can't bring cars in a kit to Canada" from China " Because one of the big parts of our auto industry is actually linked to the fact that we have a big auto parts sector, 200,000 workers, and we have the three biggest companies in the world in auto parts." Chinese using North American parts makers? So you can bet Joly will allow the Chinese to bring in kit cars... @melaniejoly

Lana Payne on the potential Chinese EV/Stellantis deal "Generally, what happens is the cars get built in China, they get taken apart into a couple of parts and those parts get moved to facilities around the world and then they get put together." "It's called a knockdown kit." "And it's not manufacturing." "And the number of people that would be employed in such a scenario would be virtually hundreds versus thousands." @Lanampayne @btaplatt

@LHubich Have been on many myself, I'm an engineer and I love them! However with our massive out of control debt in Canada we desperately need REVENUE/INCOME projects as a nation (IE that ultimately pay us $). The kind of projects that N-Z Carney belligerantly continues to block! Get it!

A few years ago I rode the KTX highspeed train from Seoul, South Korea to Daegu and Buson. It was amazing. Don’t believe the liars trying to discredit high speed rail. Other countries are decades ahead of North America.

@ChrisMartzWX If you know what you're looking at this one graph explains the story. There is NO cheap wind/solar power. It's a Liberal government fantasy - plain and simple. California is an expensive State thx to political follies made in the past

Renewable energy systems are intended to reduce your electric bills because they are supposedly cheaper than fossil fuels and nuclear power. But in California, the exact opposite is happening. As more solar and wind are added to their electric grid, the more expensive residential electricity prices have become. The data in the chart is inflation-adjusted to 2024 USD. That might not be because of solar and wind, but it clearly isn’t working to reduce costs. It doesn’t make a difference when your government taxes the shit out of consumers.

In the UK you are stuck with the same type of mindless NetZero government as we are in Canada. There is no true science/reason involved in their intransigence and it's costing billions and our kids futures. I do sincerrly hope one day that this will become obvious to most and those responsible will be shamed

Offshore & onshore: we should use it all. Lower prices, jobs and growth. I have said for years: approve Rosebank, Jackdaw and others. Lincolnshire has produced oil for decades and has huge gas reserves. US gas price stayed the same during Iran war as produced domestically. UK gas price has soared 60% due to large imports. Extracting our own gas will lower prices and bring bills down.

ALTO hsr is such a dumb idea that they even got @acoyne to agree with Pierre Poilievre, it’s a miracle. We cannot afford $100 billion dollars right now, that’s 4k per taxpayer, every province is in debt, the federal government is in massive debt, this Liberal government has never even had a surplus. The last surplus was during Harper, We are about to go 15 years without a single surplus if the government lasts its full term. We are monumentally fucking this country for future generations and forcing them to accept a lower quality of life because we can’t have reasonable fiscal policy.
cbcwatcher@cbcwatcher

Almost sounds like Andrew Coyne is agreeing that ALTO high speed rail is likely a boondoggle in the making... that benefits the already benefited "So there's lots of reasons to suspect this is not going to be a particularly wise use of taxpayer funds at a time when we have a lot of fiscal pressures." @acoyne

Close Liberal family ties to the projects management, SNC involvement, run by gov't ....what could possibly go wrong! Poilievre is right to seriously question this project. Carney (using Poilievres correct minded ideas) promised to open us up and trade our resources to the world. He's a barefaced liar!

@govt_corrupt Good example to look at is the UKs HS2. One VERY expensive disaster of a project and a good example of how NOT to plan and execute one.

The Iran war exposed the stupidity of Canada blocking its own pipelines. When a chokepoint like Hormuz carries roughly 20% of global petroleum supply, energy security stops being a talking point and becomes a hard fact. Canada should have built Energy East and strengthened itself years ago. Instead, Eastern elites helped kill it, then acted surprised when the world got more dangerous and energy got more expensive. I was on town council when Energy East was being discussed. We saw the opportunity clearly, and the companies were good to deal with on the ground. Canada chose ideology over strength, and now reality is handing out the bill.

Canada’s gas crisis isn’t “global volatility.” It’s Mark Carney and his GFANZ Net Zero policies As the guy who founded the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero, Carney spent years pressuring banks to defund oil & gas. Investment dried up. Supply got choked. Now we’re vulnerable — prices spiking, shortages hitting homes and industry Net Zero made us weak. Carney owns it He continues to punish ordinary Canadians with his Net Zero zealotry. Carney's Net Zero creates zero value to Canadians

The best comments of the day are from Brian Lilley - Toronto Sun. If you like Mark Carney and think he’s doing a great job then knock yourself out, you clearly prefer vibes over reality. Don’t however claim that he’s doing a great job or that he’s running a conservative or PC government. He’s running a high spending, left-leaning Liberal government that is overseeing a higher unemployment rate, high food inflation and a staggering economy. That’s the reality.

@DefiantLs Just the fact it will take place is a MAJOR failure of our Federal Government. Their primary role (almost sole role) is to keep the Provincial 'nations' together! Their divisive actions over the last 10yrs have festered this issue

@ret_ward Reality certainly is not Net Zero. Many folks are waking up to that! Very soon the wheels will fall off that truck. Apart from science facts what will kill it will be the ridiculous costs involved

Let’s be completely honest. Those calling for more drilling in the North Sea do not accept climate science and the need to reach net zero. They do not accept reality.

@mferreriptbokaw I suspect it's got a bit to do with that we need Projects that bring in INCOME and not those that just SPEND. If we had some ambition to do the former (and Marx Carney doesn't, although he lied and said he would have) then there would be less outrage about the latter

Here is where Mark Carney says affordability is the best it’s been in a decade. Tell that to the Canadian who can’t afford rent, can’t buy a home, and is choosing between groceries and gas. Delusional stuff.

Captain Szilveszter Pálinkás, Hungarian Army officer: What causes me difficulty is understanding which side this government is choosing. It portrays Ukraine as an enemy, while in reality, in this military conflict, Ukraine is a victim, because Russia attacked Ukraine. This is common knowledge. This raises concerns and questions: why are we weakening our role in NATO because of this position? And why are our relationships of trust deteriorating? I have taken part in several NATO exercises since the start of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, where soldiers from other NATO member states directly asked us - Hungarian soldiers - whether we were on Russia’s side, because, judging by our messaging, that’s how it seemed. So tell us, they say, because we want to know. It was very difficult to hear, because I truly do not understand why we would not want to belong to the strongest military alliance in the world. And why we cannot reach the same position. I do not see the real reason behind this.
