"What the Canadian government is asking the Supreme Court of Canada to do is to amend the constitution without democratic consent." 👏👏👏
Macdonald-Laurier Institute@MLInstitute

“If the Supreme Court continues on its trajectory and decides to throw Canada’s future into the unknown by inventing limits on the notwithstanding clause, Parliament should use its powers under Section 9 of the Supreme Court Act, to remove from office any judge who voted for such restrictions,” writes @yuanyi_z, member of MLI’s Judicial Foundations Project.

Everyone before the season: the Mariners finally have bats to match their exceptional pitching! The heart of the Mariners lineup since the start of the season:

Alberta New Democrats turned once-in-a-generation circumstances into a term in Government. Basically everything they’ve done since has shown a real commitment to ensuring that their time in Government remains a once-in-generation thing of the past.

@NeilOberman There’s no hypocrisy. You said he didn’t mention taxes as a reason for the differential. He quite literally *did* mention taxes as a reason for the differential. This is not a new phenomenon.

You seem keenly interested in disregarding context and hyprocrisy. Let's fix that with our own pen shall we? You see - if one country raises it's taxes on something and the other doesn't raise on the same thing, that increases the gap. I know - very hard for a liberal to understand the concept. But one can only hope.

The "T word" seems to be missing here. "Taxes". Gas taxes in Canada are about twice the amount per litre versus the U.S. By the way, once upon a time in Canada, $100 or more for a barrel of oil would raise our currency to about par. Look at now by comparison.

Hi Pierre, Gas in Canada has been higher priced than gas in the U.S. my entire life - for lots of reasons including market size, economies of scale and, yes, taxes. But it has nothing to do with any recent tax changes. In fact, a gap of 18% would be among the lowest on record.

After making a deal with the devil to hit 60 home runs last year, Cal Raleigh is doomed to strike out on every at-bat this year. #Mariners

That's a real nice win for the Lightning against a desperate team. Especially after such a shaky start. Onward.

I'm a typical Canadian centrist. I think the Liberals sometimes have a good ideas, I think the Conservatives sometimes have good ideas. I think the New Democrats always have really bad ideas. #cdnpoli

@sarkonakj Clifford Olson’s repeated parole applications should have been the wake up call, but alas…
