    1. R-i-i-i-i-g-h-t!!!
      Hire more journo’s so that they can gang up on the cons, why dontcha!
      Tell me another one, Red Star!

  1. An article on the Carbon price saga:

    [..] in the early years of the Liberals’ mandate.
    The federal government was negotiating with the provinces on how to implement a national price on carbon.
    Most of the premiers around the table already had some version of the same policy in place, or were at least receptive to the idea, even the conservative-leaning ones.

    But there was one naysayer: Saskatchewan premier Brad Wall.
    Butts pointed to Wall as the ghost of conservative future.
    “That’s the base (the national party) will build back from,” Butts told his colleagues. “So listen to what Brad Wall is saying.”

    1. Dizzy.
      Who was in power in Alberta at the time…?
      NDP followed by that fat Lying Prick Kenney…No surprise as to how THEY looked at Carbon pricing.

    1. Red.

      Outstanding.
      Carry on IDF…!

      I likely woulda seen that tweet had I not been in “X” incarceration for espousing the entire Liberal party have a meeting with a Tall horse, Oak Tree and some Hemp.

      In-Shallah…

    1. Do you want to bet that Shiny Pony didn’t know it was a golf tournament and was instead hoping to see Biden’s jockstrap?

      1. For those who claim to play hockey, I bet if you ask them what do you like best about hockey, their answer will be, “the slashing, I love the slashing!”

      2. H.R., the Canadians-of-convenience’s favorite sport is watch Hezbollah launching missiles to Israel. So now as the war is starting up they want to be “rescued”, in order to skip out of a plane fare.

    1. Because they want to, for some stupid reason. But it’s totally their right, and not all my obligation to rescue them when things go predictably pear-shaped.

    2. Once they have their “Canadian citizenship” they can go back and continue to have their provincial welfare or disability benefits directly deposited in their Canadian bank that they can withdraw in Lebanon.

      The money goes a lot farther in Lebanon than in Canada while the politicians and bureaucrats turn a blind eye to the frauds they know have been going on for decades.

      Canada is well known for being a sucker throughout the Third World.

        1. I have worked in a constituency office and know that it was going on with a Bangladeshi family who had been out of the country for a few years and were not only continuing to receive benefits but also illegally subletting public housing to another Bangladeshi family who I was trying to get the lease transferred over to.

          I got in trouble for trying to report it to the “correct authorities” and was reminded of the NDA I had signed.

        2. Yep, I think I’ve seen a Lebanese lady file tax returns to get all the extra credits like Child Tax benefit for a couple kids. I’m guessing she wasn’t all that separated from her husband in Lebanon. All told we are talking over $1,000 per month.

    3. I know a few Canadians from Lebanon both Christian and Jewish (Gad Saad is a Lebanese Jewish Canadian). They all are very clear on the subject of “Canadians” who choose to live in Lebanon: everyone of them is a Mooselimb Heznobollah supporter who contributed to the destruction of Lebanon. Hope Lebanese Christians and Druze will cull the herd.

    4. Why do 20,000 Lebanese have Canadian citizenship? I wonder how many are scamming benefits like Child Tax,GST,and Carbon Tax Credits.

  2. Trump’s tariffs: How they work, and who would pay

    https://www.axios.com/2024/09/28/how-tariffs-work-trump-china

    Spoiler alert: Americans would pay, in every way. On the bright side, this demonstrates that all the guff about wanting ‘fair trade’ back in 2016 was a total lie. This also tears up the USMCA that Trump himself negotiated, making it instance XXXLVI of Trump violating something he agreed to. What a shocker. This idiot must never get anywhere near power again.

    1. Great, they let you out of the looney bin after you appealed that smearing everything with feces is part of your heritage and not mental illness?

  3. So Trunp name-calls Harris “mentally disabled”. So the entire left-establishment media plays up this latest name-calling. FOX News, the only national medium supporting Trump, refuses to report on it. And this week we will a further deterioration in Trump’s support. So with each Trump bombastic rant, his campaign lags further behind. He may not be purposely sabotaging his effort. But he is mindlessly continuing his bombast, when all he has to do his to factually list all of the country’s ills under the Democrats. I have as of now written off his campaign. He is going to lose. The question is will his demagoguery jeopardize the Republican Senate and House races?

    1. I wish I had the same confidence as you, but the race really never should have been this close and that it’s as close as it is shows that the American people really are deficient and have a racism problem, much more so in older folks than new. No one who claims pets are being eaten by Haitians or that tariffs are good should ever be anywhere near election let alone ever been elected.

    2. The GOP’s candidates are doing a fine job of sabotaging their races all by themselves. Lake and the Black Nazi Guy are both down by about the same amount in their races. These are stupid people nominated by stupid people.

    3. ” But he is mindlessly continuing his bombast, when all he has to do his to factually list all of the country’s ills under the Democrats. I have as of now written off his campaign. He is going to lose. The question is will his demagoguery jeopardize the Republican Senate and House races?”

      I wish I could argue with you on that, David….but I can’t.

      The “I hate Taylor Swift” was the last straw for me. Why is there NO ONE in his campaign telling him to settle down and act like a President?

      This is just stupid. It’s like he WANTS to lose to Harris now.

      1. Bruh, if they wouldn’t/couldn’t override choosing JD Vance because Trump’s son favored him, they weren’t going to bother telling him no on anything else. Harris made a mistake choosing Walz over Shapiro, and that doesn’t even register on the same scale you need to really describe the ultra-blunder that was the choice of JD Vance. Just…incredibly bad. At everything.

        1. That is actually NOT the stupidest thing you have ever said here (the meds must still be working), both VP choices are disasters.

    1. Janis Joplin was wandering through a hotel and run into Leonard Cohen. She asked him if he knew where Kris Kristofferen was. Cohen replied, “I’m Kris Kristofferen.” They then went to his hotel room and spent some time entertaining each other, or so goes the story.

    2. I will always remember him as Rubber Duck from Convoy and Whistler from the criminally underrated Blade Trilogy.
