  1. Trump is not having a good time. Then again neither is the Carney...... The Canadian Industrial Product Price Index (IPPI) reached a record high of 137.40 points in January 2026, driven by a 4.9% year-over-year increase in December 2025, marking 15 consecutive months of gains. Significant upward pressure came from surging prices for gold, silver, and agricultural products like meat. Statistique Canada +2 Key details regarding the Canadian Producer Price Index (IPPI) as of early 2026: Performance: The IPPI increased to 137.40 in January 2026, up from 133.80 in December 2025. Key Drivers: Increases were largely driven by higher prices for unwrought gold, silver, and platinum group metals, which rose over 50-100% in late 2025. Other Sectors: Food products, particularly fresh and frozen beef and poultry, contributed significantly to rising costs. Components: The IPPI measures "factory gate" prices (excluding taxes and transportation), while the Raw Materials Price Index (RMPI) tracks costs for manufacturers. Trends: The IPPI experienced consistent, sustained year-over-year growth through 2025 and into 2026. Statistique Canada +5
  2. How could we, they change by the hour.
  3. Pipeline? Nova Scotia sits on 7 trillion cu ft of natural gas. Who needs a pipeline. So why import it?
  4. Cmon Mike, condoms isn't short for condominiums.
  5. Did you? I didn't hear, what was it you said?
  6. Of course, then again, it's always close to the truth. Nail on head and all that.
  7. WASHINGTON D.C. - After completely mopping the floor with the snowflake libs on the Senate floor, the Trump administration fears that he is at high risk of drowning in a literal tidal wave of liberal tears during Tuesday's State of the Union address. "The risk for liberal tear downpour is always high any time Trump speaks," said climatologist Dr. Herbert Thwayne. "But under these conditions, the risk is driven up exponentially. Not only is there going to be a record amount of crying like a bunch of babies, but the melting snowflakes are going to cause a rapid rise in the sea level. It's smart for the president to take any precautions necessary." For the general public, Weather scientists recommend staying indoors on Tuesday and for families located in blue states to wear life vests on Tuesday night. https://babylonbee.com/news/trump-to-deliver-state-of-the-union-in-scuba-gear-to-avoid-drowning-in-liberal-tears
  8. So what about the copy and paste do you want to refute? Sucking up to China over a blunder by a previous PM. Pray do tell what is it about China that causes the Liberals to fawn like 5 year old's watching Taylor Swift.
  9. Canola is making headlines again. It’s been the centre of trade negotiations with China since last year, when that country instituted 100 per cent tariffs on canola oil and meal in retaliation for Canadian tariffs on electric vehicles, instituted at the behest of the United States. Now, as Prime Minister Mark Carney wraps up his trip to China, there’s a new canola deal, which would see canola seed tariffs drop to 15 per cent (from nearly 76 per cent) by March, and tariffs on canola meal removed completely. The preliminary agreement makes no mention of tariffs on canola oil. With the U.S. and Canada now frenemies, Carney is trying to expand our trade network, including rejuvenating a long-icy Canada-China relationship. But even if dropping vehicle tariffs to restart the flow of canola makes sense geopolitically, it could be a problem nationally, with Ontario’s auto industry and Prairies canola growers at total disagreement about which trade stream is more important. It appears, for the time being at least, the Prairies got their way. The deal for lower canola tariffs also allows close to 50,000 Chinese electric vehicles into the Canadian market — not great news for Ontario’s auto sector. “Make no mistake: China now has a foothold in the Canadian market and will use it to their full advantage at the expense of Canadian workers,” Ontario Premier Doug Ford said in response to the news. The tariffs are still in place and could possibly drop in March. You want to use this as reason to Champion the Carney?
  10. Comprehension problem?
