BREAKING: Data centre hinges on dispatchable baseload power, including coal refurbishment. Without coal power, it’s unlikely this would be happening.
Also, I will be posting for tomorrow morning two in-depth stories on the NDP’s study into the impact of coal refurbishment on SaskPower rates.
Paul Ehrlich went to his reward, and all we got is this lousy new word for “wrong”.

Rowan Atkinson Interview with Elton John (1991)
As a self-employed software engineer, I use AI daily to help with my work. But I use it in a very targeted way and with a heavy skepticism I call “Don’t Trust and Heavily Verify”. This is the opposite of “vibe coding” where the developer is simply typing sentences into the AI and getting it to do everything behind the scenes with little to no verification of the resulting code.
So, while I do appreciate what modern AI is capable of doing, I also realize that it’s a magic trick of sorts; a very impressive magic trick to be sure, but one must understand the limits of AI and realize that it’s not actually thinking. In fact, it doesn’t actually know ahead of time what the next word in its response will be displayed. That is determined on the fly by a huge probability tree.
There are two new videos on this subject that are well worth watching but, for some background, please read about the recent failures of AI at Amazon.
Here’s the first video and here’s the second.
When I tell Americans why I left San Francisco, I often talk about the endless empty storefronts in the downtown core. I suspect they think I’m exaggerating. Turns out, these vacant storefronts extend much further around the city.
Greta Thunberg blocked oil tankers 3 years ago in the name of saving the planet. She is now demanding Trump send Venezuelan oil tankers to Cuba.

Weekend Watch: The Iran War Expert: I Simulated The Iran War for 20 Years. Here’s What Happens Next.
While watching this, consider if the Iran War does become a forever war, what will it’s impact be on oil production, delivery through the Strait of Hormuz or lack thereof, the world economy, Canadian and Saskatchewan oil production could be profound and last years? Could this lead to a global recession, but good times for our oilpatch? Remember the $147 WTI barrel of July, 2008, led to the global financial crisis that September. Some of us are still bearing the scars of that.
I know I am.
Ron Butler asks the tough question: are the problems in Canada’s private credit market an indication of a financial contagion?
We have Easy Financial. The stock price fell 50% in one day. Is this the private credit contagion?
Um, they’re restating earnings from over a year ago. What? What? What? What sense does that make?
I think something is wrong because you don’t want to see the CEO of a independent financial lending organization both quit within the same two year period.
No Food Spaces: Fairview school in Calgary Alberta has implemented bans all food from its cafeteria and lunchroom for Ramadan
At the start of the Ukraine war (2022), Canada’s carbon price was $40/tonne.
On April 1 2026, it reaches $110/tonne — more than double.
For a truck hauling food Toronto–Montreal weekly, that’s roughly $6,000 more per year vs 2018.
And that doesn’t include higher fuel prices… pic.twitter.com/xVvKkACoz4

On February 2, 2026, an SFU professor went missing. A man and a woman have now been charged with his murder:
First-degree murder charges have been laid against two people in connection to the death of Masood Masjoody, a former SFU instructor and outspoken critic of the Iranian regime.
The charges were laid against 48-year-old Maple Ridge man Mehdi Ahmadzadeh Razavi and 45-year-old North Vancouver woman Arezou Soltani on Saturday morning.
The pair is accused of killing Masjoody, 45, who was reported missing on Feb. 2.
Burnaby RCMP launched an investigation after “receiving reports from concerned neighbours,” and soon determined that Masjoody’s disappearance was out of character and involved criminality, according to a news release from the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team Saturday.
Just another terrible murder to the casual reader. But Mahyar Tousi, a well known Iranian ex-pat and podcaster in Britain, is reporting that Masood Masjoody was assassinated. Watch and decide.
