With Toronto’s electricity demand expected to double by 2050, we’re building a new underwater transmission line from Darlington to Toronto that will deliver clean, reliable power for 900,000 homes.

@CP24 I dunno, those BYDs or whatever the company is are pretty sweet and comparatively cheap next to a Tesla. The US is going to try to destroy the entire North American vehicle manufacturing base when they pull out of NAFTA II in June.
@CP24 Nobody read the article. His event was never approved. If he’d bothered to provide more requested information this would go ahead and nobody would know about it.
Appears many elections were won illegally throughout the world using doctored computer's, foreign illegals, fake ballots and no ID voting requirements. The Liberal Party of Canada assures us this did not happen in Canada as their four straight wins were fair and square!
@GurvSC Just looking at my last Costco receipt, 9 chicken breasts and 2 x 850g of that Oikos yogurt was $47.34. I don’t buy any broccoli that day but…yeah, you paid slightly less for half of what I got.
Just came across this and wanted to share.
Don’t worry everyone, CBC said it doesn’t matter if your groceries are expensive and food inflation is far above target because we elected Mark Carney and he’s going to virtue signal the orange man.
How does that make your life better? No one knows.
🚨 BREAKING: President Trump says he is working to cut off BILLIONS in federal funding to Minnesota, California, AND Illinois
“We are NOT going to pay it anymore. We are NOT going to pay them, and we are NOT going to pay California and we are NOT going to pay lllinois—the big SLOB of a governor they have.”
NOT ANOTHER DIME, PRESIDENT TRUMP!
I’d like to address the new 2026 Federal Tax law as it pertains to Sports Betting with a real life example from my own performance:
Here are my 2025 stats on #DraftKings as a $40 unit bettor for the majority of the year:
In 2025, I will be taxed at 22% percent (that’s my federal bracket) on $4,121 because that’s what I made in profits last year. Up until now, we can deduct 100% of losses. So,that comes out to $906 in taxes that I owe the federal government, leading to me taking home $3,215 out of $4,121 (78%).
However, this new law will now tax “phantom income”. So for some godforsaken reason, I can no longer deduct 100% of losses. I can now only deduct 90%, meaning I (we) will be taxed on 10% of whatever the losses are.
In this example, if I repeat my performance in 2026 on this book, I will now pay taxes on 10% of 40.5K (my losses - although, I’m not entirely sure how DK defines “Spent”), which is basically 4K.
In summary, I’ll now be taxed like I profited 8.1K, when really I profited 4.1K. Since I’m taxed at 22%, I owe 22% of 8.1K which is $1,782 (essentially double of $906).
Subtract $1,782 from $4,121, and I’m left with $2,339 in take home profits after a year on this book… this equates to me only taking home 57% ($2,339/$4,121) of my winnings as opposed to 78% ($3,215/$4,121).
Lastly, there is state income tax (if you live in a state with income taxes)…
@hcciam@DefazioIvano Well government responsibility with money is a whole other topic. But even if you go through a bottle of alcohol and case of beer this would add up to about $100 in extra taxes per year. Not gonna make or break anyone’s decisions.
@CanadianChrisBa@DefazioIvano Ah, but that $1 adds up! think about how much will be collected, and when did you ever see govt be accountable for monies, esp this Lib govt?? With everything going up, this is the Lib response, raise taxes!!
How much do Lib MPs claim for alcohol on trips??
🚨BREAKING: TRUMP JUST TOOK A MASSIVE VICTORY LAP ON THE “EXPERTS”
“Because of the tariffs, we’ve taken in $18 TRILLION. There’s never been anything like it! The Biden admin took in less than $1 trillion in 4 years. We took in more than $18T in 10 months. That’s good!”
The tariffs are printing MONEY, billions pouring in while protecting American jobs.
Simple poll. Please be honest! As of today, how much do you still support Trump?
A. 100% B. 75%
C. 50% D. 25%
E. 0%
@AlexanderFisher@C_3C_3 It’s either complete ignorance of your own government system or callous disregard for the truth and engagement farming. At least with the first one you may become a normal human. If it’s the second you’re just a bottom feeding loser.
@Victoria59L That’s mainly provincial and they are/were(?) attempting harm reduction. I’m not educated enough on the topic to know if it works. That has nothing to do with a small rise in alcohol taxes.
