Blacklock’s- GST Benefit Worth Under $5
Cabinet’s GST holiday will save the typical Canadian $4.51, the Senate national finance committee was told yesterday.
“When it comes to retail, the average consumer will save approximately $4.51 over that two-month period per Canadian,” said Charlebois. “That is based on sales volumes.”
Remember a town called Brampton?
And not even all of it, according to SaskPower Minister Jeremy Harrison, whom the other media are apparently ghosting by not actually quoting him as minister.
In Pipeline Online’s continuing mission to ensure we all know exactly what the federal government is telling us on climate change initiatives, this is the verbatim press release from the Government of Canada issued at 18:10 hrs on Dec. 5. Notably, it was not sent out via provincial media releases nor SaskPower’s media releases. And apparently according to the feds, Jansen is a company, not the place the largest mining company in the world, BHP, is building the world’s largest potash mind. Check that out in the opening paragraph.
(You’d think the natural resources minister, and ministry, might be aware of the largest potash mine in the world being built in their country)
The announcement was made by Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Jonathan Wilkinson. He and Minister of Environment and Climate Change Steven Guilbeault are the federal Liberal government’s lead ministers on their numerous and various climate change initiatives. For good measure, we’ve interspersed a healthy dosage of oil and gas ads, that industry that this government’s Bill C-59 is trying to muzzle.
Highlights include money for a number of solar projects, advancing SMR development, the intertie to the United States, grid-scale batteries, and a “forecast that there will be over 130,000 clean energy jobs added in Saskatchewan between 2025 and 2050.”
Oh, and I am willing to bet a Christmas cheesecake the $265 million number was set so they could say it was more than Harper gave carbon capture in 2008 ($240 million). Never mind 9 years of inflation meaning my kid cries after buying groceries.
And on the topic of Guilbeault, Pipeline Online columnist Jim Warren, knocks another one out of the park talking about his involvement with the green slush fund.
I have two customers who own major trucking companies–one on the east coast and one on the west coast. I’m sure you’d recognize their names.
They both told me last week they can’t fill their trucks with freight and they are not even making enough money to pay for the fuel. They say freight volume is down over 50%.

In the past few weeks many readers have emailed to report they were hitting “403 forbidden” pages, having comments disappear or most recently, were unable to access the site at all.
A bit of background: in September, our original hosting company was sold, and as a result, SDA was moved to a new hosting company and server. All seemed well at first, but as the reports of problems began to escalate, I ordered a site audit. That has been underway for the past couple of days and a number of issues were discovered that led us back to the hosting company and their service being inadequate and misconfigured for this type of site. Without going into the gory details (and they are gory), the issue has been found and (fingers crossed) resolved.
I apologize for the difficulties that so many of you have dealt with, and that it took so long to tease out the problem.
Mark Steyn- Goodnight, Vienna
In civilised societies, a ten-year-old cannot consent to anal rape. The boy himself was physically damaged by the encounter and reported to be suicidal. But, as a subsequent Supreme Court jurist put it, for the rapist it was a “one-off incident” and it was important “not to lose your sense of proportion”. Whatever problem it may once have had with sharia, the Austrian judiciary has artfully solved.
Nothing says abject failure like the imposition of draconian penalties in order to keep doctors from leaving socialized medicine.

Matt Taibbi- Pardon Me, But This Is Bullshit
The Politico piece by Jonathan Martin might be the first of the era that needs to be read entirely between the lines. White House officials are “carefully weighing” preemptive pardons really means White House officials already decided, but are publicly floating the idea. Pardons for “those who’ve committed no crimes” means those who’ve committed crimes.
Politico- Biden White House Is Discussing Preemptive Pardons for Those in Trump’s Crosshairs
When congressional committees wanted to know what Hunter Biden’s new “sugar bro” motive was in paying millions of the princeling’s back taxes, they were stiffed-armed, Heisman-like, from those in the Deep State intelligence community (IC) who told them to back off. The “or else” was a given.
The stiff-arming happened on purpose and was perpetrated by the CIA. According to whistleblowers, during the five-year-long probe, the CIA stopped the IRS investigators from exploring the root of the poisonous tree of free-flowing money from a connected Hollywood attorney and agent who had just barely befriended the out-of-control addict at a Joe Biden for president event in LA when he started cutting checks.
