Kleptocracy. That’s the word and Trump’s regime is the text book definition.

They invested peanuts in existing companies and have made no direct investments, or taken controlling interest in any major projects. Indeed Saudi Arabia is busy diversifying their investments away from oil. It’s good to be sceptical, but we are a very long way from a business case for a pipeline.

I would be surprised if a petro-state like Abu Dhabi would choose to invest in competitive oil infrastructure in Canada, with all the attendant risks. Lots of places have money. How and where to wisely invest it is the issue.

But Quebec also charges foreign students from French speaking countries the same as Quebec based students. It’s cheaper to be from Belgium than Ontario.

Quebec has much higher tuition rates for out-of-province students (plus forcing an additional qualifying year to correspond in theory to CGEP). You can easily double those numbers depending on the program.

Carney has also put Alberta’s feet to the fire. No longer is Ottawa the problem. The problem will land squarely with the province when all the impediments to a pipeline pile up at their door - all crystallized in the absence of private sector funding.

He needs to go. It can’t be soon enough. But the opposition has yet to produce the leader we need. Bonnie C was a disaster. Marit S is better but the NDP probably can’t win. Who will it be?

It will die a slow death as BC and First Nations resist, oil markets decline and private investment fails to appear, but the blame will shift from the federal government. I don’t think it’s a particularly ennobling political calculation, but a lot of pigs will have to fly before this is real.

That rail overpass is a monstrosity. Such a prominent piece of infrastructure needed some proper design with a bit more budget.

We are in an incredibly difficult squeeze. Priorities and their balance have had to change. Difficult. Necessary. I don’t think this budget or any budget can be a perfect answer because there isn’t one. Certainly the opposition parties don’t have anything better or more coherent to offer.

He either didn’t know in which makes him supremely stupid, or he knew and is supremely immoral. By his own admission, he’s not stupid - so. The only real question is whether this supremely immoral man participated in the direct pants down abuse of minors or the trafficking or both.

This is a business. These animals are being raised for their meat and would typically be slaughtered at around 2years old - certainly not 100 times the age of a chicken. And like a cow culled for mad cow disease or a chicken for avian flue, farmers are compensated at market value.

I don’t think there ever was or will be a politician who doesn’t on some level disappoint. The nature of politics (and leadership) is compromise and hard choices and that always leaves someone, often everyone, dissatisfied. And that dissatisfaction accumulates until we demand change.

In North America and much of the west, most housing fills two roles. It provides shelter and it’s an investment, whether personal or corporate. That investment dynamic benefits from high demand and low supply. But at some point those two things collide, making for very problematic policy choices.
