And God Bless you that you do and do it so very well!

I think Fruitfly Guy gave all the credit to SUN because he's afraid to even mention Kate. In case something might... happen... to him.

Congrants Kate, that's a heavyweight endorsement. Good to know they're listening.

I hope this is not the same Kory Teneycke who lobbied for biofuel subsidies?

Using taxpayer $$s to rob the food shelves and burn it in vehicles. Knowing full well it takes more fossil fuel energy to make biofuels than is ever recovered in their energy output.

Please tell me there is another Kory T

Stupid is as stupid does with apologies to Forrest Gump.
Paying attention McGuinty, Wall ?

Good to hear from Kory Teneycke here at SDA!

Now Kory, get busy and locate a studio in Saskatoon, so Kate can contribute to SUN TV from there, ..... (no SKYPE stuff) a short commute from Delisle, eh?

Sorry ron. Googled him AND went to that world renowned sight Wiki for all things eco-cultist/facist/Useless Nations Agenda 21,etc......and it is he.....sigh.Maybe he caught a baseball bat tuning tool? Or Sun News has a plant,as an execuitive director,yet?

I got a new cable package a few weeks ago with Sun and Fox News. I keep thinking I'm going to check other news channels, the ones I was previously stuck with (CTV, CNN), but it just never seems to happen.
I did hazard over to MSNBC for a few minutes with Martin Bashir. It was not pleasant.
IT was surprising t hear KevinW warn about what's going to happen as far away as twenty years. Is that the new deadline for climate apocalypse? I thought the whole thing was over in as few as five years...

It is interesting that the Left, which regularly rushes to call for an end to charitable status for religious or pro-life organizations has become so sensitive about its own pet "charities".

it takes more fossil fuel energy to make biofuels than is ever recovered in their energy output.

Not true for biodiesel made from canola, but hey, don't let facts stand it the way of your beliefs.
google 'EROI biodiesel' for factual info.

Do Farmers grow their own fuel needs instead of buying fossils? No, a lost cause.

And the day you decide to use your power for bad... Ho, boy...

Do biofuels require subsidies and mandates to make them "viable" ?? Yes.

Is Kory Teneycke's sda endorsement a step in the right direction? Yes, a huge one.

While watching and reading Sun News, Kate's sda influence is obvious.

search youtube for more fuelfarmer videos; just one of many exmples

don't let ignorance limit your understanding of reality

Kory Teneycke from Young and Kate from Delisle. No wonder Saskatchewan is booming.

not necessairly in the case of biodiesel

don't assume that all 'biofuels' are the same, that only shows a lack of understanding important details

if you think education is expensive you should consider the cost of ignorance

Perhaps the Menzoid could acknowledge where the idea for the "dedicated drunk driving lanes" came from next time he discusses the injection sites for T.O. And Ottawa.

The Sun is forging an alliance, a bridge, between the new and the old media. I think it will be successful and I hope the bloggers they resource get credit and remuneration when the whole thing gels.

...which only proves that generalizations are generally incorrect. For example one might conclude from one person's biased ignorance that all people in Kelowna are ignorant, but of course that's not necessairly true is it?

I'm not very familiar with biodiesel but I don't think it lubricates an engine the same way as regular diesel, which damages the engine

Biofuels have so far been a disaster on all fronts and Harper is intent on pushing them on us very hard.

I'm not sure if I like what this story is about. It seems to me the government is twisting definitions to gag organizations. I would prefer if 'charities' got no tax break at all.

Now if they could put an end to the "Peak Oil" myth.

That is correct. The new ultra low sulfur diesel fuel can have insufficient lubricity. Biodiesel is the best lubricity additive one can use. It also significantly reduces the harmful particulate pollution from diesel engines.

http://watch.ctv.ca/news/latest/suzuki-resigns/#clip658151

I do not think Suzuki has walked himself very far from what he was doing before he resigned from the board.

He still plans to be the mouth, and hence the public will keep the connection to the Suzuki Foundation pretty much where they had it before.

He claims to have ended his formal involvement on the foundation's board, but says he will still "volunteer".

Same old slick schtick.

Revenue Canada needs to get in there and provide clarity.

Vivianne Krause and SDA and SUN still need to keeps tabs on him. His ego will not let him stop for long.

BY LAS

Obviously I would prefer no taxes at all but come on if I want to give away what pittance I have left after my wallet is waxed eloquently by ccra. I sure as heck am not going to allow them to waste even more on their garbage and take more of it out of the hands that need it.

I think that we should be taking a collection to whittle Kate a new ninja costume... instead of a sword, I propose we give her a gunny sack full of hornets to throw at fake eco-tards.

Yay Kory! And it is GREAT to know SDA is popular over at Sun News. We'll keep 'em honest.

and Kory - We love Sun News! It's more conservative than Fox News is and it is required viewing at our house. Good job!

I try to use my power only for good.

Then why are Saskatchewan families paying an arm and a leg to fund freeloading farmers forever? Why, Kate, why? You must desire this evil, what with your extraordinary powers and all.

That's wonderful...way to go Kate!
So many times I've read the op-eds in the print edition and realised.."That's just what we were discussing at SDA "

Do you suppose these Sun News people just read Kate et al., or do they skim the comments, too? The idea of Ezra or Brian Lilley taking in my invaluable insights makes me feel almost tingly.

And yes, needless to say we're all very relieved that Kate uses her power for good and not evil.

A few quick responses...

I have been begging Kate to come on Sun News since before we launched. She keeps turning me down. Lobby away.

We are trying to find more ways to credit and expand the roll of bloggers on Sun. Stay tuned for more on this.

And yes, the comments are one of the best parts of SDA.

In closing, Saskatchewan rocks.

Kory

PS. Ron - I would get into a biofuels debate but I think it would be breaking Kate's rules about staying on topic. Happy to debate offline though!

Ah well. Sun Gods come, and some dogs go. It's just the nature of things...

Saskatchewan has much to answer for. Namely the spreading of the filth known as socialism.

Kory, sure. Kate has my email addy.

@ LAS: I would prefer if 'charities' got no tax break at all.

I would prefer if all others got tax breaks.

@ The Grey Lady: Obviously I would prefer no taxes at all but come on if I want to give away what pittance I have left after my wallet is waxed eloquently by ccra. I sure as heck am not going to allow them to waste even more on their garbage and take more of it out of the hands that need it.

We are in agreement to a large extent. Consumption and income taxes have no justification.

Consider yourself beaten about the head and ears with wet noodles the neighbourhood cat just pee'd on!

Kate...go on Sun News...you have a lot to contribute. Hey, it worked for me when I was on Corus, I was able to surface a number of issues that had been overlooked, and frankly, in a small way engineered some change, or, at the very least, some controversey..

PLUS...if you acquiese, I have it on good authority that you'll get those ruby slippers, to ensure that you always use your power for good....

C'mon Kate...just remember that sidebar comment.."Why this blog"...keep SNN on their toes too.

I can think of other farm yard stuff to use beat phil over the head. Farmers are too busy to engage tho.

Geezus, and now how are we going to live with you in here:-))))

(I added the "in here" so's things wouldn't get miss-construde:-)))))

I think Kate is afraid of what leftist terrorists do to conservative women. She's probably right.

James - Ever heard of a punk terrorist shooting up defenseless weak kneed lefties at a University?

How about a gun and hobby meet where there are well armed and gun savvy law bidding individuals who know right from wrong?

James

Shortly after Sun News went to air I asked Kate about the possibility of her appearing as a regular contributor.

Kate indicated that the offer had been made but she didn't have the time to deal with the hassle that TV appearances would mean. I believe her.

BTW, if you think fear of leftist terrorists is holding Kate back you havn't been hanging around here long or reading comprehension isn't your strong suit.

I'm with syncrodox on this one...Kate has her reasons, but being "afraid" (of anyone or anything) is not one of them!!
