You just did. Demeaned them.

People weren't as stupid in the 1970s as they are now. Nor were they so morally bankrupt they couldn't fess up to their mistakes.

Nixon had the decency to resign, Trump has no shame at all. None. Zero.

FYI [/sarcasm] Sometimes I will make up a phony name that holds some retarded concept other posters will jump to endorse. I will include a [/s] as it seems to go over people's heads so often. And I will go overboard often when scenarios as absurd as the "Red Chinese" tunnelling thought the Earth's core and invading through Billy's sandbox in the backyard.

Had they. We're both arguing the same thing, I'm only pointing out if you don't have the refinery you're still hostage. We blew the opportunity for Canadian owned, Canadian controlled solution. Now it's too late for anything, investing the amounts needed for an end of life product. When I visited my sister in Truro in 2014, she'd converted her furnace from oil to propane, it was cheaper and natural gas was 'coming'. Just a matter of changing nozzles. Well it's 2022 and natural gas is still 'coming soon'. Same shit as in BC, my cousing worked at Ballard researching fuel cells. In effing 1982... while the Premier talked Hydrogen Highway... talk talk talk. Thank God we have people like Musk who might be a jerk but DID instead of 'study' for 50 years.

This is hilarious the same fools taken in by a con man are still taken in after all these years. Now they're gonna take retribution. That's what's most important. MAGA - back to the caves people!

Oh FFS I'm not ragging anyone person, I'm pointing out this misconception that PET's action is related to the current problems. He handed us a process and WE rejected it. I voted for Mulroney too, and now we have Free Trade and deregulation and privatizations and we're stuck with that and all it's implications like world prices for oil. There's no going back. FFS look at our telecom infrastructure, we're shelling billions of public dollars out to Bell & Telus to deliver access to small communities so they can make even more money. Not using their own money.... using yours! And ArmyGuy makes a good point - yeah it would be more cost efficient to send oil south, refine it there and buy it back... just like Vancouver does. Enjoy tham prices - diesel will be $6 a litre in NB & NS then.

Yes, if he made big changes to their working conditions and gave them an ultimatum. I don't know if he did exactly that. If he offered them money if they quit, that would be a buy out not a severance. So if they quit because his actions changing their work conditions, he'd be liable for severance which could well be more than 3 months pay and probably huge legal and employment law expenses. Then again, they might be in some GOP right to scab state where he could just say "I'm the Boss, you're fired. eff off" and dive them nothing. Not a matter of IF, a matter of HOW BIG an a**hole Elon is.

It didn't work because we compensated for it being set up and then quickly privatized it for a little money right now. Just like Gordon Campbell did flogging of BC rail here. Instantly got rid of the electrified line, went back to diesel only a couple years before CO2 shit hit the fan. CN instantly forgot everything BC Rail knew e.g. where empty cars were parked, why you can't run longer trains on certain areas. Oh yes, I'm well aware he didn't sell BC Rail, just leased it for 999 years....

No, everyone who disagrees with Hodad is not ignorant. Just you. Look lefty, Russian hoax of interference the politically establishment correct thing the demonrats take their orders from higher ups fascist Turdeau liberal cabinet MP's is full of young WEF globalist aims great reset Can you squeeze in any more buzzwords? I actually miss the old days where a 9 yr old from the USSR could reel out a more literate manifesto.

Masochists. Gotta support an ideology no matter how much it hurts. Cut off their own nose to spite their face as Granma used to say. And Canada is not all that different than the USA, we have our share of people who are dumb as a hammer here too.

Oh Jesus, no wonder you agreed with the old fart.

Totally ass backwards opinion you got there, so intent on hating a Trudeau you forgot what actually happened. His NEP meant we could sell oil for export for more than we sold it for our own use. PetroCanada meant we could build our own refineries, we had an end to end publicly controlled system where YOU as a taxpayer could vote them out if they ripped you off, not just yell at the clouds. Pierre Trudeau set that up, but oh no that was too 'communist' for some, and Alberta threw shit fits and tantrums that they should get "world price" for their oil. Well PetroCanada got all broken up and privatized and Alberta got world price and you have to pay whenever they up it because some shiek got mad or Putin farted or whatever. Well pray to Jesus and maybe Elon Musk will build a refinery in your province, cuz ya pissed away the opportunity PET handed you.

Who is in favour of injustice. Those who benefit, even if it's just from being reassured they're not the only arse hole around. General Dork, why he'd stop all this woke shit. Ban women from the military, then there's be none of this sexual harassment bullshit. Harrumph!!

Oh go chug a bottle or two and quit wasting bandwidth.

Oh those silly women and their hysterical notions they should decide what happens to their body.

Still making the price is too high argument after seeing the prices of ANY new car these days? After the shortage and used cars listed at ridiculous prices? Looking through the local private sales ads, it appears too many people believe people will pay those fake prices for rusted old hulks they see on TV and then drop $100K rebuilding them. Lots of ads for 30 yr old pickups that have been sitting on blocks in backyards and are listed over $10,000 these days. You're going to shell out $40K+ for any new car. Lots of EV choices in that range now.

The circle jerk of deniers rises in a NATO like club in it's own defence! Ayeeee any criticism if capitalist excess is an endorsement of Josef Stalin - ackkk we're not OLD we just think like 19th centurians - EGGGHHHK making them clean up after themselves is a war on oil WAKKK Nazi Greens - URRKK there are no droughts there are no floods and washouts there are no hurricanes it's ALL Trudeau Trudeau Trudeau... listen to your own sad and sorry responses. Sad enough to not make the slightest attempt to DO anything about a real problem, but spout endless hours of utter bullshit trying to discourage others from even trying... Can'tservatives, Won'tservatives

"Little Greta" has more brains and balls than anyone of the deniers sticking to their guns in 2022. She's definitely not all that interested in the opinions of old farts who fished out all the cod, the salmon, pumped 70 years of lead into the air, she's motivating young people. Because her parents generation forgot they could or should even try to do things to improve life if it wasn't cost effective. Wah those 3rd world people should be happy cooking roasted bugs over fires using our scrap plastic... why should I have to help them?

What makes you think listening to this shit about Russia crossing over the ice at the top of the world just to take more effing ice for over 60 years makes me conclude? That shallow panic stricken fear mongering never goes away.

Some people watch too much Game of Thrones. It's not yours unless you put your armies there....

Most people who rant about morality don't have any.

It's Sunday why aren't you knocking on doors handing out pamphlets? Calling other people full of it....

Illegal votes.....? It's over and done. Go back to Moscow now.

GOP needs to take a peek at our Green, Conservative and NDP here and find Picky Little Clause #22 that says why he's not eligible to run for leadership and stick by it. They can avoid the embarrassment of using the actual reason that he's a toxic failure sure to lead them to doom.
