So did herbie get you an equity card?

I know but I'm an optimist.

Which is? The fear rises once more.

There are three types of people in this world and you three would make a right pair if ever I saw one.

Yes, the bereft of a cogent answer name calling, do try to get out of your basement. It refers to a lefty identity drama from last weekend. I'm sure you would relate to those "people". https://www.westernstandard.news/bc/ndp-leadership-convention-equity-cards-explained-inside-the-system-that-ignited-battles-and-ridicule/72353

You a Cockatiel or a Cockatoo.

Wooosh right over your head. NATO says how much Carney says this much.

What industry?

Do you have an equity card?

NATO gets it's info from guess who. Pro tip, it's not the tooth fairy.

To you it's magic. Have you named your fairies yet.

Weasel words again, try putting the brain into gear. Are you implying that Harper was the cause? Yes or no. Even for one who's tends to have some comprehension difficulties that can't be too hard to figure out.

Weasel words. Are you implying that Harper was the cause?

Yes they are but surreptitiously throwing the blame onto someone who was not responsible is questionable.

Not talking to you, do your interruptus thing elswhere.

Are you implying that Harper was the cause?

Reality.

Flawless magic.

Same with Poilievre, testosterone is their Kryptonite.

So you don't like it? Try dragging yourself out the Liberal molasses for a minute and offer some kind of counter argument. Or are you afraid of increasing your post count.

The federal government has largely removed the consumer-facing fuel charge as of April 1, 2025, but the industrial carbon pricing for large emitters remains a critical, ongoing policy. The OBPS is designed to prevent "carbon leakage," which is the risk that companies move to jurisdictions with lower carbon costs.

Sounds like a 24v system only getting 11v. There's a village somewhere......

Sequential Impact: The cost increases move step-by-step through the chain—production to processing to transport to retail—before appearing on consumer bills. Delayed Effect: The full impact of energy price hikes on manufactured goods is not immediate, typically experiencing a lag of six to twelve months before appearing on store shelves. Manufacturing Drivers: Sectors that rely on energy-intensive processes, such as petrochemicals, plastics, packaging, and fertilizer, are among the first to face these cost increases. Transportation and Logistics: As fuel costs increase, transportation companies pass these higher shipping rates to wholesalers and retailers. Market Competition: While businesses in competitive markets might try to absorb some costs by shrinking profit margins, sustained high energy costs generally force them to pass the expenses to consumers, often resulting in higher prices for food and essential goods. Industrial Carbon Pricing: Similarly, industrial carbon taxes applied to heavy emitters (like steel and oil) are rarely absorbed by the companies themselves; they are passed through the system, acting as a "sneaky tax" that influences the cost of consumer staples.
