In the southwest corner that is, the NW corner housing is much cheaper, food a little higher and gasoline much cheaper. But as a whole, it's huge area here so the economy is way more diversified. Oil, LNG, lumber, grain, cattle, mining, tech and commercial, fruit in the south and yes way more coal than WV, for steel and totally for export - therefore never a reliable pinion of the economy. And the most unionized workforce in Canada. The place where the 'free enterprise' party nationalized the ferries, the hydro and more long ago and brought in the first carbon tax 10 years before Canada did. No coal or oil fired power plants, LNG powered ones been on on standby for years. EVs are 20% of car sales, not because we're weirdo environuts, because they make common sense. 2/3 of the population can use those every day and save money. Maybe that explains why some of us can't see the whining of sticking to whatever ideology and ranting when things have, can and are being done and the population is growing not running away from phoney fear mongering.

Not quite that simple a comparison, the two things have nothing to do with each other. Aside from the USA telling others you must do this, but we'll do as we please. Only Russia and TRUMP are deplorable enough to just rip up treaties so callously.

Oh my, sexist too. It's supposed to be a discussion, not one to display how deplorable you can be.

Haha... how about for starters the one too stupid to know how to use MSPaint and change it to 2024 Liberal Platform? Or the one who must compulsively troll without ever having anything to say about the subject at hand?

Nothing more stupid than a man who works for a living and isn't upper management to hate unions. Nothing. Not on the whole planet. And if the cost of living is higher where you live, it makes you even stupider.

Trudeau's bail law? A bench warrant is not enough for failing to appear? We got a few people here doing their best to put the administration of justice into disrepute.

I thought you already said they were Nazi ideals? And if we don't know of 2 posters that would benefit from a spell in a re-education camp. Obvious the first education didn't work.

Could it be how the car dealer donors just got DeSantis to make direct to consumer car sales illegal maybe? That will sure help car buyers save money, won't it?

Wonder until your head explodes. Sweden had to agree not to shelter any more Kurd terrorists. But there must have been some huge conspiracy among all the other members you can probably uncover on the dregs of the Internet you can tell us about.... Canada doubled apricot quotas, Biden is sending California pistachios for balaclava, UK sending Erdogan a private shipload of Scotch... etc etc Like who gives a shit?

It's illegal not to consider someone's background whether they grew up in a mansion in Cape Cod or on a reservation or a project in some ghetto. So if you racist blockheads can see a way that doesn't involve race, feel free to tell us all. So chill, go sip on a mint julep on the porch while you supervise Pedro cutting your lawn.

So let's all hear your take - that there are fewer hurricanes and they're less destructive and Farmers is pulling out because Biden made inflation so bad it costs them over 3 billion dollars just to rebuild an outhouse...

We know you didn't say that bur your talking with someone who can't support his own argument, so has to make it about you instead.

Some people will still be in denial as they watch their front porch float away with the tide. With them on it, in their rocking chair.

Doing the same as Mulroney did, hiking interest without also hiking income taxes and pumping the GST to 12%. That would stop inflation in it's tracks, wouldn't it?

I find it incredible that among such a crowd of ardent free enterprise supporters anyone should have to explain something so obvious.

I was referring to Putin's collapse, not Russia as a whole. Even the USA wouldn't support that. Talk about a scenario for utter chaos! Japan would try to grab the Kuriles back, China Vladivostok, Mongolia... some 1dot like Trump would offer to BUY Siberia...

The sun doesn't shine and the wind doesn't blow all the time. But it is always sunny and windy somewhere. So linking everything together is proposed by some people, and pilot projects are already underway. It would be a huge undertaking, but where there's money to be made, there's a will. High Voltage Direct Current is a long-range transmission method.

All they needed to do was nominate 100 or so non Chinese people to run against her....

It's Florida. They'll deny the sea level is creeping up until their toes are wet on the main floor. Then they'll sing the song about how its from natural causes, we can't do anything about it.

Once visiting Seattle in the 1970s I ordered a Coors. The bartender loudly said "A Coors?" and a half dozen customers piled in and yelled that it was a Union town and they drank Union beer. Avoiding a punch up I pulled out my union card, told them I had no idea Coors was scab beer. All of them went 'Oh - he's a Canuck' and sat me down and bought me a jug. Don't remember, I think it was Rainier. Their TV ads were a motorcycle whizzing by and a voiceover RAINNN EEEER BEEER in those days. I did find some damn good brews on the US West Coast, the weren't the major labels though. Weinhart or something like that? Haven't been to the US in 30 years... but I will be visiting Hyder Alaska this summer, it's walking distance from my stepdaughter's home.

OMG ..so dry... how British a rebuke. Nice.

"Instead" they issued a warrant to arrest him and drag him into court? What did you want a dead or alive poster?

You're being butt stubborn just to spite your face now. Arguing that there's no law that says you have to absolves ones responsibility to do so.

I wouldn't link drinking that to their IQ, only their lack of taste. After all the best selling burger in N America's a Big Mac, and look at the sugary crap most people think is great Chinese Food. Like I said, drink the p1sswater from Ann Hauser's bush?
