This pretty much says what I've been saying throughout this thread, but is a lot more technical detail. Well done, I think you know your stuff. It's just that Boges doesn't like all that negativity when it comes to his EV. Stop trying to tarnish his halo. Not to mention what dirty business mining is. Far worse than most people realize. I have no faith that government can deliver on a complete solution. So far this is mere lip service and political posturing more than anything else. Meanwhile we might screw ourselves. Canadians being the first to make a move, may end up investing in unproven technology or that has little net gain in the long run.

Yeah Boges that's ok. That's why I alluded to the mass of the vehicle. See I'm one step ahead of you here. As usuL Yes I know the game your playing. You believed the sales brochure. You've got a poster of a Tesla on the wall. Obviously it behooves the design of EV's that they be as lightweight as possible. I say that conflicts with a trend in wanting EVER BIGGER cars. Pickup trucks, not SUV's you urbanite. Sorry if you don't like it.

No clever is getting told there's Uncle Joe's war in the Ukraine when you forgot about it. Move along, sonny bozo

You probably didn't even know there was a war, because your ass is sitting in a comfortable Starbucks all day. Doing homework on your laptop. Gete lost kid, do not try to come here and pretend you know something. Your mommy probably pays all your bills anyway,

No one actually cares whatever it is you think you're showing us. It should be a discussion, not stupid back-and-forth. You get that, dick head? Everyone knows that Biden's war in the Ukraine is raising the price of diesel, and that's a major factor in why the price of all goods is going up. There was already a shortage before the war, and now this is taking us over the top. Sanctions on Russian gas have created a shortage in Europe. Really, who knew? And from there the whole house of cards starts coming apart.

Other issue is that many people do not want a smaller, more lightweight vehicle. If you're just going to Costco down the road, ok maybe these EV's are suitable. Maybe. I'm talking safety. Now let's say you need to go on the 401. Massive trucks going 120 in the right lane. That means you better be able to GO, you f*cker... But I tell you what, you get in an accident, that's where you want to have some serious steel around you. Not some lightweight mini-suv made of fiberglas

That's right, but while CBC et al were screaming entire front pages about the accusations and inuendo when it first came out, they've quietly retracted and said little about it. Proof that our journalism completely sucks. Luckily most Canadians have the memory of a hamster, and forgotten about it already.

It's an interesting point. I didn't fo look up the efficiency, but in principle you never get more out than goes in. In fact, you never even break even when it comes to energy transfer. See the Second Law of Thermodynamics. It's a Law.

Boy the sales pitch really got the hook in you. I'd like to see a cite or a little math on that one.

Insults? Fook off, you mental midget. You're a laugh.

I get to be free of groups, so I can pick and choose. The one that brings more kindness is correct. In general.

Interesting, isn't it. Of course the federal government will cover that up. That's why I was so amazed at how people like Tam and Moore could call themselves Chief Medical Officer of Health.

Our PM sure made it sound like our border was open. - Trudeau’s viral tweet – sent out shortly after Donald Trump moved to ban travellers from several Muslim-majority countries last January – read: “To those fleeing persecution, terror & war, Canadians will welcome you, regardless of your faith. Diversity is our strength #WelcomeToCanada.” He had to recant this open invitation six months later, after a lot of damage was done. “Our system now is in shambles, and I think a lot of this has to do with the messaging — the inconsistent messaging — that has been coming out of Justin Trudeau’s personal communication shop,” said MP Michelle Rempel, It's unsafe for the migrants, too if all we can offer them and their families when they come here is to live in a ghetto. You better join the gang, little homie.

A-historic types are the greatest threat to a civilization. Leftism, in particular communism requires that past history be re-written, since the truth is their enemy. Therefore keeping people ignorant of the past is a hallmark of the left. As we see right here, with these fellows...

Their Trump Derangement Syndrome has not been cured yet. Trump is like the boogy-man in their closet. They go to bed at night, praying on their knees, please gawd don't let him come out...

Some days it's like shootin fish in a barrel. Most days, actually.

You dismiss the values of millions of people in this, doing exactly what the very problem is that creates irreparable division. "We are the future, forget the past, they're just old".

They might be hijacked by a foreign influence that seeks to make us attack one another.

Right, the media is not talking about the terrible mistakes being made under the Joe Biden regime. Probably because most of the mainstream media is in the hands of just a few, left leaning billionaires who deem themselves activists in shaping world change. That's why we have WW3 now, but Don Trump was completely unacceptable on every level. He belongs to a different cabal, I would guess. So the CURRENT state of liberal and conservative ideologies is - Liberals are progressives who have changed the world from a stable agrarian society that lasted centuries, into the doomed technological shithole we have today. As socialist progs they seek to change it ever further in that direction. - Conservatives who defend tradition and stability were hijacked by a cabal of religious Alberta preacher-men, whose ideology Canadian liberal society generally rejects, and they can't shake these people off. That's why they cannot hold power. All Poiliever can do is throw a blanket over their heads. Only this one has a hole in it, for some reason. It could be from Saskatchewan... Let's hope it all ends quickly...

Well there is little of interest they can say. They never say much interesting anyway. They're just goading you. They don't have time to do their own research. They come here to feed their confirmation bias, and you're the fly in the gaspatcho.

Congratulations, we've started WW3.

Is Canada a full democracy? If by full you mean smashed drunk and staggering around, then yes, it's very full

Not sure but presumably there are rules for releasing them. It's possible this was the one Trudeau ordered to be shot down. It's the same day their balloon went missing, Feb. 11 over the Yukon. The article should be titled "Trudeau shot down our balloon."

Whatever gets you through the day. You can call me Sam, or you can call me Sammy. Morality is a thing and seems universal, across time and space. Civilizations of the past had their religions. They knew not yet the words of the gospel. Yet the truth speaks the same no matter where people are, if they ponder it long enough. But then don't think too much. .... So when it comes to religion I say, it's like yer Irish Whiskey. Kinda good for ya... taken in moderation.

Yep, so true.
