Drilling For Debt

One measure of Canadian exceptionalism might be how much capital we insist on destroying in order to shove harmless trace gases deep into the earth.

He made his announcement at the site of Bow Valley Carbon Cochrane Ltd. northwest of Calgary, where emissions from a natural gas extraction plant are to be stored four kilometres underground. Bow Valley is a partnership between Inter Pipeline Ltd. and Entropy Inc.

It is to receive $10 million to add equipment to the plant, and Hodgson says its emissions reductions will equate to taking more than 12,000 cars of the road a year.

Great Success!

Sylvain Charlebois- How Ottawa gift-wrapped our dairy sector for Trump

Which brings us to Donald Trump. For him, gaining access to the Canadian dairy market is not about economic necessity—it’s about principle. It’s about cracking a closed, protected system that offends his transactional worldview. Fresh off forcing Canada to abandon its digital services tax, Trump may now see himself as the liberator of Canadians from an outdated system that serves a small, powerful minority.

When you’re flapping your elbows it’s funny how people tend to notice.

This is the fatal flaw of Bill C-202. In trying to shield supply management, Parliament has made it a bigger target.

Canadian trade policy is now so contradictory that I’ll admit to not being able to keep things straight anymore. I thought the whole purpose of the “Elbows Up” campaign was to demonstrate that we could replace declining trade with the US by increasing trade with other nations. Now we appear to be doing our level best to shut the trade door with everyone else. Go figure.

The federal department of finance says it will limit the amount of foreign steel coming into the country by placing a tariff on imports that exceed a certain threshold from countries that do not have a free trade agreement with Canada.

The policy, known as a “tariff rate quota,” announced on Friday allows non-free trade countries to send the same volume of steel to Canada that they sent in recent years, but applies a 50 per cent tariff if they exceed a designated threshold in any single quarter.

National Post- She objected to land acknowledgments. Now she’s paying the price for her heresy

“In my view, the Board’s imposition of a land acknowledgment during our school council meetings undermines the democratic process and constitutes a form of compelled speech, which I believe contravenes the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. There is no school board policy mandating its inclusion. In my opinion, the sentiments implied by the land acknowledgment, are political in nature, highly controversial, and therefore divisive and inappropriate within a government institution. And I respectfully request that my objection be noted in the minutes of this meeting.”

Cartel Clout

If anyone wonders why Canada’s trade negotiations aren’t moving as quickly as hoped, the reason will become obvious before too long.

While Blanchet and his Bloc colleagues have remained focused on currying favour with Quebec dairy farmers, there has been a sea change in the geopolitical context, most notably a dramatic deterioration in the Canada-U.S. relationship, with Trump targeting dairy import restrictions among the many trade assaults he’s been directing at Canada. For Parliament to raise this protectionist fence higher is downright foolish — as was emphasized by experts over and over again during the debate on C-282 — and would seriously jeopardize our relations with the U.S. at this very sensitive juncture.

Grifter Avalanche

About the last thing Canada needs right now is more of these kinds of movements. Keep it up and it’s the economy that’s going to look like a rock falling off a mountain.

Kataquapit said First Nations youth are “starting a movement” to protect their cultures and lands from what they see as increasing encroachment by governments looking to build major projects in a hurry.

He compared both pieces of legislation to a rock falling off a mountain.

“You don’t know how much momentum it’s going to build,” he said. ”It might cause a mudslide and turn into something like an avalanche.

 

The Invoice Is In The Mail

It’s polls like these which demonstrate why Canada is not a serious country. Most voters would be happy to entertain national bankruptcy rather than let go of any aspect of the nanny state.

The poll of about 4,000 adults conducted from June 2 to June 8 said 59 per cent opposed selling Canada Post while 29 per cent favoured selling it. The margin narrowed when it came to privatization, with 47 per cent against the idea and 38 per cent for it, though that only related to certain parts of the crown corporation.

Blacklock’s- Fewer Use Gov’t Forecasting

Canadians choose private sector weather forecasts over Environment Canada, says in-house federal research. The finding followed 2022 disclosures the department scooped data on hundreds of thousands of users who downloaded a government weather app.

The Department of Environment in 2019 launched its own weather app with “super cool” features at an undisclosed cost, according to then-Minister Catherine McKenna. Managers subsequently acknowledged they tracked the personal information of 715,791 Canadians who downloaded the app.

April 3rd, 2025:

Liberal Leader Mark Carney says it’s not necessary to protect Canada’s supply management system through binding legislation.

The stance puts him at odds with his party’s position less than two years ago, when the vast majority of Liberal MPs voted for a bill that would have protected the supply-managed dairy, egg and poultry markets from future trade concessions.

May 30, 2025: Prime Minister Mark Carney yesterday endorsed a Bloc Québécois dairy bill opposed by free trade farmers as protectionist.

Now that the Ontario government has conceded the moral high ground to the enemies of progress, one can expect these critical projects to flounder endlessly. If any protests arise, don’t expect any bank accounts to get frozen either.

Road, rail and mine blockades could be on the horizon, First Nations leaders said Monday, as they ratchet up pressure on the Ontario government to kill a proposed bill that seeks to speed up large mining projects in the north.

Provincial ministers, meanwhile, said they heard the outcry and will make improvements to Bill 5, but stopped short of suggesting they would eliminate it outright.

National Post- Closures of B.C. parks to non-Indigenous visitors a sign of things to come

A year ago in these pages, I criticized land acknowledgements for implying that non-Indigenous Canadians are “uninvited guests” in their own country. Now, the B.C. government has embraced these labels.

To the applause of her colleagues, NDP MLA Rohini Arora stood in the legislature earlier this month, encouraging non-Indigenous British Columbians to describe themselves as a “settler,” “colonizer” and “uninvited guest” living on “Indigenous land.”

Fickle Thoughts

Canada’s Bolsheviks Drill, Baby, Drill 7 Comments

It’s not surprising that Quebecers want lower gas prices too. What is also not surprising is this bizarre statement from Francois Legault on the subject of pipelines. It is safe to assume that in a more “dogmatic” world, Quebec would be okay with losing money? Why would a culture think that way in the first place?

“We’re not dogmatic. We’re OK with Quebec making money,” he said. “The world has changed.”

In the coming months, everyone should prepare themselves for a massive expansion of what constitutes a “nation building” project.

At a meeting in March with the premiers, Carney asked them to identify “nation-building projects.” Ford’s letter sets out his list of areas he wants the federal government to prioritize “that would be transformational for Canada’s economy.”

But the “nation-building” project drawing the most attention is a driver and transit tunnel expressway under Highway 401.
