Why the Liberal plan to tax entrepreneurs who invest will come back to haunt Canada
He doesn’t care, he wants the cash and if a few thousand families, a few tens of thousands of businesses get ruined…what of it?
Our job is to make DiCaprio happy, not to provide for our families. How dare you question a Trudeau!
Money for the dental insurance? Trudeau wants it. Money for retirement? Trudeau wants it. Passing the farm on? Trudeau wants to tax it. The whole family working the gas station? Too bad, that’s Trudeau’s money too.

Blog Notes
SDA is hosted by Hosting Matters out of Jacksonville, FL.
I note that the mayor has now ordered an evacuation of vulnerable areas.
I am completely unfamiliar with the area, so I can’t say if SDA will be affected, but in the event SDA goes down in the next while, there’s probably a really good reason.
Hate Facts And Fainting Couches
If our colleges continue down this road, they are going to create a host of extremely weird, hyper-sensitive people who have no earthly idea how to converse and interact with the sane.

And some governing jack-ass turns my “Let’s get the heck out of Canada” dial up to ten.

CFL Picks, Week 12
The second set of the Labour Day Classics, the Back to Backs…unless you’re Hamilton or Toronto, in which case…IS THE CFL CRAZY? I hate that they don’t have the rematch. Why not just give BC their two byes together?
Friday:
Montreal @ BC. Montreal is in for another beat-down, I’m afraid.
Saturday:
Riders @ Bombers: This will be the game of the week but Saskatchewan will lose a squeaker.
Hamilton @ Ottawa: Ottawa is tough to beat at home. Sorry Hamilton, the streak was short-lived.
Calgary @ Edmonton: Edmonton knows what went wrong last week, they will still lose.

Did we learn nothing from 100 years of limited alcohol distribution and regulations?
If it’s legal, it’s legal. Let private enterprise go, already.
