  1. Yesterday the NDP announced details of a $21.5 million spending program where Albertans can have someone from the government come into their house and retrofit it with low-flow shower heads and new LED lightbulbs at taxpayers expense.
    The NDP claims this service is ‘free.’ But where is the money coming from? It’s coming from you – via the multi-billion dollar job-killing carbon tax!
    That’s right: The NDP is taking money from Albertans, buying lightbulbs and shower heads, then telling us that we should be grateful for all the presents the Government is providing.

  6. They did this in the GTA, prior to my moving, about 6 or 7 years ago, hand delivering the items door to door without any prior announcement. The young immigrant lady employed to do this insisted on entering the home to install the shower head. I absolutely refused to allow her entry but took the items. I still have the low flow shower head in a closet somewhere. The two led bulbs are installed in lamps, I believe. Think about this…what was this exercise all about? A total bureaucratic cock-up with no measurable outcomes? I can only guess, and am not comforted by my conclusions.

  9. Coyne is at it again.
    While simultaneously bashing Oleary he disses the conservative party for letting him in the race at all
    But what do I know?
    I figure anyone that meets the requirements should be allowed to run even not matter their philosophical views. I figure that allowing a no holds barred debate on who can best articulate conservative policy will weed out the chaff.
    How could I be so wrong?
    I guess we should do what the liberals do and stick handle a chosen candidate to the big chair even going so far as to allow the anointed one two extra weeks to organize the votes…..er supporters prior to the leadership vote.

    VIENNA — An Austrian court found eight Iraqi nationals guilty on Thursday of gang-raping a German tourist on New Year’s Eve more than a year ago and sentenced them to prison terms of between nine and 13 years.
    The Iraqis, aged between 22 and 48, came to Austria as migrants between May and December 2015. Five subsequently were given refugee status.

  13. “How do you reload (especially when somebody is shooting at you)? How do you clear a malfunction?”
    Where the guy says “charge it” it remotely loads. That should clear a malfunction. As far a loading new belts – plan ahead. You really don’t want to deliberately go into battle with a Hummer. However, it is nice to provide your own cover fire.

    “Dopamine Puppets”
    “Here’s a funny article by David Wong of Cracked that talks about the dopamine high we sometimes get from outrage. The gist of it is that the brain gets some sort of chemical payoff from outrage, and we seek it when we’re otherwise bored with life. Politics serves up lots of outrage opportunities. That’s why we are drawn to it – for the high.
    We rationalize that we are fighting the good fight and making the world better. But mostly it just feels good to get worked up about issues and share the experience with like-minded dopamine addicts.”

  15. Bassam Aladin Al-Rawi a Halifax taxi driver found with an intoxicated, unconscious, mostly naked woman in his cab and her DNA on his mouth has been acquitted of sexual assault by a judge who said there wasn’t enough evidence to prove the woman’s “lack of consent.” […] She also couldn’t provide information on whether she “agreed to be naked in the taxi, or initiated any sexual activity,” Lenehan said.}
    It appears that a Halifax cabbie, also named Bassam Aladin Al-Rawi, has been involved in [other incidents of questionable consent sexual activity] with passengers.
