Canada, NATO, de Gaulle, Poilievre
Aristides replied to August1991's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
France rejoined NATO in 2009. https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/news_190458.htm https://www.politico.eu/article/france-will-reach-nato-defense-spending-target-in-2024/ -
KEEP THOSE VACCINE DEATHS QUIET!
Aristides replied to WestCanMan's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
One thing is continually missed when this is debated. At the time there was a real worry that our hospitals would be overwhelmed and in some cases they actually were. Hospitals in the Los Angeles area were actually running out of things like oxygen. That wasn't a conspiracy it was the real world being faced by the world's health care systems. I'm continually amazed by WCM's 20/20 hindsight, the guy must be some kind of genius. -
BC Premier EBY . . . carbon tax.
Aristides replied to Nefarious Banana's topic in Provincial Politics in Canada
The BC carbon tax was introduced by the Liberals, was revenue neutral and capped. The NDP dumped revenue neutrality and put it into general revenue to be spent as they see fit. They now use it for wealth redistribution which is the norm for NDP. Because they use it for winners and losers. The less tax you pay, the more they give you. Earn more than 61K taxable income, you get nothing. Buying the votes of those who pay the least. -
Which aircraft at those? I worked on large transports for 5 airlines from two countries with employees from all over the world. I don't believe internet bloggers because they are full of shit no nothings. But like I said, it doesn't matter because you don't listen, I've tried giving you accurate information so you can learn something but you think willful ignorance is critical thinking.

Grey water is drained overboard on many aircraft through heated drain masts on the aircraft belly. We learned not to stand or leave anything under them when flight attendants were doing their preflight in case one of them emptied a pot of old coffee into the galley drain. Black water from toilets is retained onboard and emptied into lav service trucks on the ground.

The difference between you and me is I worked on and flew these things for over 30 years so actually know what I'm talking about. NASA and other scientific organizations aren't mainstream media, they are where MSM get their information. You get what comes out of any internet bloggers ass that supports your conspiracy mindset.

This can be true, there are lots of variables. Temperature and relative humidity are a couple more. You can have aircraft at altitudes only 1000ft different, one will be contrailing and the other won't. The only way you know if your own aircraft is contrailing is if the sun is at the right angle and you can see its shadow on the cloud below you.

So why don't upper level winds disperse your phantom chemicals the same as they disperse frozen water. What about all those trails made during WW2. Do you think they were busy spreading chemicals while trying to kill each other at the same time. You are incapable of answering the most basic questions. If contrails stick around it's because there is no wind to disperse them.

Trudeau Liberals Bribe Voters with Taxpayer Dollars
Aristides replied to Zeitgeist's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Unfortunately it is borrowed money that will never be paid back. Our descendants will still be paying for services we used long after we are dead. -
Really? How do you produce it from nothing and who is going to do it? How do you produce enough of it without generating CO2? Green hydrogen can only be produced by electrolysis which requires massive amounts of electricity to produce in quantity and you get less energy out than you put in. Liquid hydrogen also has to be kept at minus 270 degrees to keep it from boiling off so you won't be able to fill up your car and then let it sit for days. Solar and wind sure won't provide enough to double our generating capacity in the next ten years and a tax that you give back to select people won't do it. You can not power everything with electricity, batteries just don't have the energy density and there are other issues when it comes to high power requirements like aircraft. Gasoline contains 70 times as much energy per KG as a Li battery. A Tesla Model S requires a 1400 lb battery to go as far as a car getting 30 mph on 75 lbs of gas.

What constitutes subsidies is debatable. Viable loans and loan guarantees are not really subsidies, in fact, they can be investments. Supporting carbon capture projects is actually something government is doing to reduce emissions other than just taxes. Because of its high energy content and easy portability, there is no real substitute for petroleum unless we can develop cost effective synthetic or bio fuels in large quantities. Petroleum products are also Canada's largest export, worth well over 100 billion annually. Imagine what would happen without the revenues they provide.

Trump Media Stock Price Falls Forty Percent
Aristides replied to Rebound's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Looks like you are correct. The board consists of mostly his family and cronies. Trump owns 60% and this thing will likely crater fast. The only other time a Trump company went public it went belly up. His cult won't care though. -
Justin Trudeau, please fund Bibles in every home
Aristides replied to West's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Are you going to force people to read it as well? -
I’ll ask again, what is government doing to make this happen except make life more expensive for everyone? Producing hydrogen requires lots of electricity, charging batteries takes lots of electricity, heating all the homes in the country takes lots of electricity. What is government doing to develop and produce alternate fuels in the many applications where electricity isn’t viable or practical? Yes, EV’s can be used for town deliveries but that’s about it. What is government doing to make all that happen other than sucking money out of peoples pockets?

Trump Media Stock Price Falls Forty Percent
Aristides replied to Rebound's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Trump can't sell until 6 months after going public so he is taking a big hit. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/trump-s-net-worth-drops-us-1-billion-as-social-media-firm-sinks-1.2053755
