It’ll never work.

Is what the environmentalists told us.

It’s a grudging admission that CCS can and does work. But the biggest issue many environmental groups have with clean coal is its high cost.

Enabling coal driven power stations to continue operating versus a million new windmills, twice as many new natural gas plants or a couple of nuclear plants is cheap at twice the price.
This effectively shifts the argument from, “Rargh fossil fuels!” to “Is it a real problem?”
That’s good.

“You know what? We’re at a point where Canadians … are cynical about politics and not paying an awful lot of attention to what’s going on in the federal scene right now. People are getting ready for the end of school, for beginning summer vacations and going off with the family,”

Balancing family responsibilities while in public life is always a challenge. This is particularly true when you have a child with special needs. Recently my wife and I received some difficult news about the health of our beautiful son Spencer.

The Republicans have been lucky the last couple of primaries. Lots of competition and for good or bad, the candidate chosen by the people was their nominee.
Clinton didn’t plan for that kind of campaign. Her whole campaign to this point has been about nothing: no waves, no press, no questions. Her team expected to cruise through the nominations because no Democrat would have the guts to take her on. Who wants to get on the bad side of ‘the Clinton machine’?
Not so fast, says Sanders. It looks like the Democrat voters might be agreeing with him.

And this explains the polls.

The flake proves the label; the Opposition promotes stability.

Trudeau’s speech was unremarkable in its delivery. But the content, and the subsequent question-and-answer session with reporters, were anything but. The Liberal leader unveiled a series of 32 proposals, many of which singly, if implemented, would transform Canadian democracy.

Small-business tax cuts, support for manufacturing, infrastructure spending; it was fare of the kind you’d have heard in a speech 20 years ago from a federal Liberal minister. In effect, Mulcair is making an unabashed play for the moderate, conservative centre.

Pretty much what Ace said.
“And yet, when Anita Sarkesian makes pretty much the same whiny, bitchy ankle-bites, but this time casting them as arguments from the left, rather than the right, the whole Kotaku Klaque praises her as a serious scholar and Voice of a New Censorious Generation.”*
