In any case it is not just a science matter but public policy. How much will we warm in the next 20 years? Is the net effect negative or positive? Is it even significant? If it is, is it worth the economic disaster caused by bad policy?

Nope I think the 11 billion to natives should be added to the military.

Wasn't Canada just a fiefdom of the Hudson Bay Company at one point? Early Canada was a society of French speakers governed by Great Britain.

Nothing is quite as stupid as socialism and 2 out of 3 Canadians embrace it.

Which is the same problem with the MSM. Can't do any worse relying on social media.

There is a new bill out there designed to force social media outlets to censor participants.

Yes we have a terrible federal government. One of the worst things about Canada is the need for the rest of the nation to subsidize Quebec and the Maritimes.

Yes, and many reap the rewards of hard work by running successful businesses. Me I'm not particularly ambitious, which is reflected in my modest middle class income.

Except Canadian McDonalds doesn't serve biscuits! Love biscuits more than than english muffins. But yes McDonalds is atrociously expensive - considering the crap that is served.

None of the LGBT squared minus 1 crap.

These are generally young people so that makes sense. I use to take a bus and this horrifyingly old woman would bring bags and bags of bottles on the bus. Her bus pass was probably subsidized and collecting cans was how she made money. I remember thinking I don't want to be her when I retire. Scary. But the prices of nursing homes could easily send me to bottle collecting. See I agree that greed is bad, like greedy nursing homes. Of course that is TOTALLY subjective and there could be legitimate reasons nursing homes charge so much.

You are talking to a person who dearly loves Canada. On the other hand I do NOT love Canada and what it has become. Now isn't there a new bill out there that basically demands Facebook and others to police their users

No but they were seized just for DONATING to the truckers convoy. Scary.

Fake cons everywhere.

Ended abortion funding over seas. MAGA. Streamlined environmental approval process and got keystone going. MAGA

He should have gotten rid of his Finance Minister. My big issue with Harper is he cynically stopped increased funding for the military to build social programs.

I've been reading you posts and especially the one about corporate tax rates. I know you despise Trump but would you agree his cutting of the corporate tax rates was one of the best fiscal policies in North America these few years?

First, the only reason the Cretien years tackled the debt was they savagely cut military spending. Second, the way Trudeau went about dealing with COVID was totally ass backwards. Instead of giving direct money to individuals they should have been propping up the small business that got destroyed.

oh the covid excuse. COVID made Trudeau run a never before seen budge deficit.

I use to think liberals were just mindless do gooders, but I don't anymore. Al Gore of course we found out owned companies that traded on carbon credits. In New York I use to assume politicians built new low income homes because they cared. But they don't. You find out there have a political donor who will be building those homes. Cha Ching.

Well, I will just address your main point of "greed". It is a human personality trait. Conservatives are no more or less greedy than liberals. Churchill called socialism the politics of envy. There are probably more rich liberals than conservatives. Think of the Clinton family, George Soros, the Heinz family, Al Gore, ect.... Greed of course is also very subjective. If I penny pinch and don't give money to windshield wiper boys does that make me greedy? Or does that make me a good steward to my family?

If that's the case why is the government so threatened by "bar talk".

The PROCESS is the punishment. A good example is the fraudulent hockey stick graph by fake scientist Michael Mann. He sued Steyn to put Steyn through the process. There was no way it was ever going to see the light of day in court. If that happened then global warming would have to be defended - something no one wants to do on the left.

Been going on for a long time. The FBI NSA and CIA are now weaponized to move against any conservative group they deem a threat.

Yes miss Trump. The country just couldn't handle an Andrew Jackson of this age.
