You're the absolute last person that should be talking intellect.... Again... show me where he said that. While you're at it, show me where Rousseau said he was being pressure into biofuels and feared his reputation being ruined if he didn't go along. I'll be waiting... 😂

You just have a tough time accepting that Smith is happy about this MOU, and that she believes Carney is working with Alberta, and not against it like Trudeau seemed to be when it came to oil.

So, you got nothing and just pulled it out of your àss. Too funny! BTW, that was obvious...

If you paid attention, which we know you don't, you'd have realized the comment wasn't about Carney, it was about port expansions. But, you don't pay attention...

Yes, you posted your usual bûllshït.... Show me otherwise, stunned one.

Lol... does she have conference calls with Albertans only to voice her displeasure? I'll assume then that the Calgary Herald, Edmonton Sun, Energy Now, and any other media source that can print a person's words are subsidiaries of CBC.... Try reading... Your little world of media is following similar fools on X and Facebook because they say what you want to hear.

Great comeback... 👍 It's not blowing off steam, it's a low tolerance for people who are lazy and/or act stupid. You fall into this category with your inability to think outside your comfort zone of conspiracies, the laziness you have in looking for facts, and your obvious need to pull untruths out of your áss to fit your story. Lol... show me what 'facts' I've disregarded. I've shown you a few of yours just in this short time I've been there today. Your serve... 😂

Food prices escalated 24% during his term. That's not a lie, it's fact. We also had a different world with different costs and different dollar a decade plus ago. It's difficult for you to deal with facts isn't it....

Your anti-liberal minds don't allow for much thought beyond your narrative, do they... I'm guessing you're also of the mindset that climate change is fake news so no need to reduce carbon emissions in this industry either, right... US airlines are more heavily invested in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF/biofuels) than Canadian airlines, primarily driven by significantly stronger financial incentives in the United States. While Canadian airlines are actively pursuing partnerships, the U.S. market has moved ahead in both investments and production capability. Skies Mag +2 Key Differences in Investment and Activity United States Leadership: U.S. carriers, led by United Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and American Airlines, have made large-scale investments in SAF production, startups, and supply chain expansion, with United claiming to have invested in more SAF production than any other airline in the world. Production Incentives: The U.S. Inflation Reduction Act provides tax credits of up to US$1.75 per gallon, which has attracted significant capital for SAF production. Canada's Challenge: Canadian aviation industry groups have highlighted a lack of federal policy and financial incentives, leading to a shortage of domestic SAF production. Investment Contrast: While Air Canada has taken steps, such as a 2024 agreement with Neste for 77.6 million litres of SAF, the scale is generally smaller than the multi-year, multi-million dollar investments announced by major US carriers.

Absolute nonsense... Show me when/where that was said. Anyone with half a brain knows that if it was factual, not a chance in hell he'd be elected. The penchant you have for picking things out of your áss to keep your narratives going is priceless 😂

You haven't been looking close enough... Port of Vancouver: The Port of Vancouver, which handled a record 160 million metric tons of cargo in 2024, is prioritizing the Roberts Bank Terminal 2 project, an estimated $2 billion initiative to expand container terminal space. Additionally, the Centerm Expansion Project was recently completed, significantly increasing its container handling capability. Port of Prince Rupert: Known as North America's closest port to Asia, this port has $3 billion in projects scheduled to expand export capacity for products like liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). Port of Halifax: Upgrades are focused on accommodating larger ships (18,000 TEUs), including building a new container buffer zone and adding new cranes to enhance transatlantic trade. Port of Churchill: Recognized as critical for Arctic sovereignty, the Port of Churchill is undergoing modernization to act as a crucial trade corridor.

But I thought the countries biggest oil proponent, Danielle Smith, said the deal her and Carney struck was a 'grand bargain', an 'end of dark times', and a 'starting pint grounded in good faith'? You seem to be getting Carney mixed up with Trudeau...

And your little mind probably thinks this delegation is only there on behalf of Carney's personal wealth, don't you... 😂

No idea how we compared to the G7 countries with that inflation. I do know though that labor, transportation and energy costs were less, we had a higher dollar, there wasn't a war that impacted food prices, and there were less weather events then there are today.

I'm hoping it's Trump 🤞 Hire a minion, fire a minion. There is a long line of highly inept àss kissing minions in his world so hard to say who's next... Hopefully all of them. He does need a scapegoat for the war though so guessing Hegseth will be under a bus before long is this thing drags on.

No, m0r0ns are intellectually and emotionally insecure people who can only function in a narrative that suits their simple mindset, while disregarding the reality of facts. Actually, this sounds a lot like you...

I'm implying food inflation was high during the Harper years, just like it is now.

We also had lower labor costs, lower transportation costs, lower energy costs, a much higher dollar, and less weather events. Because of liberals all have increased, even weather events.

The cry hards either forgot that, disregarded it, or just think that any inflation under a conservative government is better than inflation with a liberal government. Too many years back for me to remember the cost of food but the stat's say that food prices increased ~24% under Harper, and these fools probably thought that was okay. During the Harper government years (2006–2015), food prices in Canada experienced volatility and a general upward trend, often outpacing general inflation . This period saw significant price changes due to global economic shifts and weather-related supply constraints. Statistique Canada +4 Key aspects of food pricing during this period included: Volatility and Upward Trend (2006–2015): Food prices experienced sharp increases around the 2008 global financial crisis and experienced further pressure from droughts in 2014. While economy-wide prices rose roughly 14.5% between 2006 and 2014, food prices increased by nearly 24%. Rising Meat Prices: Meat and beef saw some of the largest price increases, with meat prices increasing significantly during the latter part of the period, partly due to reduced cattle herds and rising feed costs. Market Concentration: The retail food market saw high levels of concentration, with major chains holding significant market share, setting the stage for long-term food price increases. Northern Food Costs: Despite the existence of federal subsidies (such as Nutrition North Canada, which began in 2011), food prices in Northern and remote communities remained extremely high, continuing to present a challenge for accessibility.

Here's what I think is going on with your weird way of thinking; Advisors are contracted to advise, not pressure. The airline industry has been investing heavily in biofuels for many years, and some like UAL have gone as far as their own refinery. Brookfield as one of world's largest asset managers is naturally invested in the future. Seriously.... you made up both these comments. Do you believe that if you tell yourself something enough times it becomes real? The charge was led by Legault, other Quebec politicians, and the committee of language. Are you curious why? AC's next CEO will be hired and approved by the companies board of directors, not by Carney or anyone else. Viola! Your active and misguided mind flames out yet again. And you live happily ever after in your world of imagined conspiracies....

The US protects us by being a deterrent, not with military dollars spent guarding over us daily. That's appreciated and obviously taken for granted over the past couple decades that is shown in our, and the majority of NATO countries military spending. One good thing, and maybe the only good thing about Trump is that he's given us and others a much needed wake-up call.

100% of us never underestimate your clans stupidity. The only reason the cons got 41% of the vote was because of Trudeau's unpopularity. Think about who is leading your party... a 29% poll lead lost to a first time politician, and now a 50%+ favourability deficit to Carney say's everything you need to know about Canadian's like and/or faith in Poilievre. The party is well into double digit deficits behind liberals in any poll you find, and Poilievre's day's are numbered. Even Joe Rogan can't help this guy.... Hopefully the cons find a better alternative to lead the party the next time around.

We've had this conversation and you couldn't and can't provide any numbers attached to the opinion of the guy from Dalhousie, because there are no numbers attached to his opinion. You chose to make up your own, which you do often. What is in the link I attached is actual math to back it up.... a novel approach don't you think. This economist at the UoC, the Bank of Canada and the predominate economic opinion is the same.... it add's little to nothing to the price of our food. Your so-called math is more than suspect... is economics one of your many 'qualifications'?

I agree that he could have been better with his comments on the US war, but then again the way it went down and the need to balance reality with a fool like Trump doesn't make it easy. He just shouldn't have said anything right away, and waited for it to play out a bit longer. End of the day though, it doesn't matter....

You're debating with people who only read what suits their anti-liberal narrative....as I'm sure you know well. The fact is that the industrial carbon tax add's little to nothing to the cost of food. Carney threw a dig on the same subject to Poilievre a couple weeks ago that provided for a good laugh during question period. It ruins a good story, so can't fault them for trying.... https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/cjag.12383 The industrial carbon tax (known as the Output-Based Pricing System or clean fuel regulations) has a minimal impact on food prices, estimated to increase overall grocery costs by less than 1%—roughly 0.1 to 0.3 per cent. While it adds small indirect costs to transportation and processing, it does not apply to most on-farm agricultural emissions. Trevor Tombe +3 Key Impacts on Food Prices: Minimal Contribution: Economists and research indicate the impact is nearly zero, with one study suggesting it adds only about 30 cents to a $100 grocery bill. No Direct Tax on Farmers: The industrial pricing system targets large emitters (e.g., refineries, fertilizer plants), not individual farms. Indirect Costs: While it can slightly increase the cost of producing fertilizer or processing food, this impact is considered minimal, as industrial systems are designed to limit costs to industry. Other Factors Dominant: Food price inflation is driven more significantly by international factors, supply chain disruptions, energy costs, and climate change, rather than the industrial carbon tax.
