Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Rubbish it is currently -8C and I’ve lived in lovely places like northern Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Mica Creek the land of 95ft snowfalls.
I think I have a pretty good understanding of COLD, like -45C in Grand Rapids, Man. …
The lady is complaining that CANADA has WINTER and poor politicians!

I pay $75/month for gas and electric for my 1,500 square foot home in New Jersey (ok, my central air died a couple years back and I didn’t get it fixed, so that partially explains why its so low). My heart goes out to this woman and the rest of you Canadians. Time to get out torches and pitchforks.
The “sobbing women” appears to be barking mad. She was later pictured near swooning over our bumbling boob of a PM, clasping him around his neck while he reciprocated. Disgraceful behaviour on both their parts.
The lady is complaining that CANADA has WINTER and RICH politicians!
There fixed that for you!!!!!
Don’t you dare accuse me of voting for that little c**t! Did you vote for HRC (I think you’re one o dem Muricams, no?)
PS – BC Hydro is sh*t-canning us out here, too! My last bill was $1100 for two months! Granted I have old heating and it’s been mighty cold…..

Yes, no doubt you do, and that’s not an issue.
However what you pay to heat a house in Langly BC is a fraction of what the rest of Canada has to pay, and the TurdoTax is going to hit us the hardest.
I live in Ontario, in a modest house in a small city. I have gas heat, gas hot water and a gas stove. My hydro bill is about 110 a month. I have had the gas stove for a few years now, and when I bought it my hydro bill went down about 20%. I can’t really tell what it did to my gas bill, due to equal billing and variable weather, but I didn’t really notice a change in the gas bill. When my dryer craps out I will replace it with a gas one.
Trudeau is a scumbag. Wynne is a scumbag. The two of them should be “in a transition”, as he says, to prison
My heat has also been turned off so far ALL winter because the electric bills are insane. These liberal crooks and their green energy scam belong in prison for FRAUD.
JT is merely PMButt’s meat puppet.
Le Dauphin Petite Pomme de Terre is a person of no consequence, a figurehead, flack-catcher, ignore him. He exists so that people will focus their energy on personally hating the meat puppet and not question what’s really going on behind the scenes in the PMO.
The only way that Le Dauphin Petite Pomme de Terre can appear to save face on this issue is to pin Canada’s carbon-tax at 1.5%, the amount our emissions contribute to global GHGs. They will have their TurdoTax, but it will be merely a gesture, however justified by the numbers.
Yes you will get hit harder with a carbon tax; which is why this should be banned in Canada.
Vote the ‘carbon “free” economy politicians’ OUT; they’re too expensive!
So Trudeau wants to get our ‘resources to market’ by freezing the workers out. What guy, what a plan. Oh look shiny locks of hair!
Freezing out Canadians for political purposes is, I agree, asinine.
They should relocate Parliament to Alert, Nunavut 82°30′05″N 62°20′20″W with a record low wind chill of -64.7C this might improve their concentration if they don’t turn stone cold first.
I can see the next Trudeau family vacation already…!

How many years did Hillary last, staging events with only hand picked, truly committed sycophants? Trudeau has decades of supply left on the devoted cult members front. Jim Jones, a friend to Democrats everywhere and probably a teacher of Hillary’s, perfected the art. Wonder if there are any photos of the first Trudeau with the reverend?
and Hans, let’s not forget.
She puts her trust in Juthtin. She’s a FOOL!
He bafflegabbed her and brushed off her concerns. But hey, she got a hug, that hug will pay her bills, right? Or will that make her feel better when she pays her grand per month to fund the Unicorn plan while paying her HST, loyally.
Liberal supporters suffer from terminal cognitive dissonance
So, for comparison’s sake, let’s talk about a 2800 sq ft home built in 97, with 2×6 construction, thermo vinyl windows, a gas central system with a heat pump, in the lefty universe of Victoria.
I put in the HP in 2008, under the PMSH Home Renovation program. Got tired of mid-winter gas bills topping out at $200+ per month, while turning it down to 15 every night. Hydro was around $70/month. Got a further subsidy from the province on the pump. The idea was to be more efficient, drop the overall gas costs, and have 24/7 climate control as well.
End result, I wouldn’t change a thing, the HP is great and I recommend to anyone in the BC climate. Newer systems are more feasible to sub-zero weather, to minus 10, where your gas backup comes in, caveat, no sysytem is perfect.
Two years after the HP install, BCHydro comes up with its Two tier power billing. Nice, right after leading people into more Hydro sourced heating systems…..
its been a cold month here in Whacktoria, by these standards (not looking for sympathy my friends, spent some years in Ft Nelson….). I expect my Hydro to be $200 for the month, and my gas to be about the same. Once the freezing goes away, I will be back to monthly, $120 Hydro, $40 gas, for the rest of the spring/winter.
For the record, many new homes here are being built with baseboard electric heat only. Developers have to pay Fortis to bring in the gas, and they hesitate at putting in heat pumps. Fireplaces are verboten! Not saying builders should be forced to put in central heating, but, homes are very difficult to retrofit for central heating, to allow gas or heat pumps.
Stupid is as stupid does.
if we had linger sustained periods of sub-zero, I would do as Hans has done, and blow in more insulation in the attic, its a good idea for anybody.
Lefty governments lose touch with the ordinary citizen, look at the Spud’s response to Grandma, and her pathetic response, hugs and selfies
Hey, I’ve got an idea.
How about Trump gets Keystone up and running, we get all your tar sands oil, refine it into nat gas and gasoline (sorry, “petrol”) and then sell it all back to you guys at a profit? Then your boy wonder can put more carbon taxes on it and you get to buy it at the customer level and go broke quicker while he uses all those Canadian tax bucks to subsidize your very own muzloid invasion and your LGBQWERTY K-12 indoctrination programs while you chop down more trees in an effort to keep warm and cook food without paying obscene energy bills.
Win-win. No?
(I do apologize for the snark. I just couldn’t resist. But honest to God, I do feel horrible about what you guys are going through. I’m afraid your collective pain is gonna have to get a whole lot worse before any semblance of sanity in government comes to you country,)
