      Most people do but as they get older it becomes prohibitive  .. last year was our last because of the cost for hubby.  if it increases a lot now probably many will no longer go  down south. 

  5. With just a few cents more per liter at the gas pump, people are already cranky in BC?  Lol.  They say it could still go up.  Embrace it!

    Just love it that prices are starting to soar.......

    Kris Sims, the B.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, said when filling up a typical Toyota Camry sedan, $5.99 will now go toward the carbon tax. More than $10 will go toward the tax to fill up a pickup truck, she added.

    And when it comes to the larger tractor trailers that transport the food and supplies most of us rely on, more than $45 of the cost of a diesel fill-up will go toward the tax.

    “So it’s just an astounding amount of money when you start to add this up,” she told CTV News Channel on Monday.

    Sims said she supports initiatives to create cleaner air, but only if ordinary residents are not made to suffer.

    “The idea of amping up the carbon tax to the point where it punishes people so much that they can’t run a business and they can’t drive around, we have to ask ourselves: what kind of an economy and society will that be?”

    It's a tax grab.   This is how Trudeau will bankroll all his reckless spendings.

    Food, and anything else that uses transportation will go up in prices, too!

     

  6. Right now, let's just focus on the current government. So many things done on the sly by this Trudeau government.
  7. Montreal to ban single-use dishes and cutlery.   Expect a surge in communicable diseases.

  8. Golan Heights new community might be named after Trump!  That's the plan.

    “All Israelis were deeply moved when President Trump made his historic decision,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a video statement made on the Golan.

    He added that, after the Jewish Passover festival, he would “bring to the government a resolution calling for a new community on the Golan Heights named after President Donald J. Trump.”

      I guess the CBC will be ridiculing the Queen now.

      ....and.....they'll be covering the protests and the blimps, more than the actual event.

      From June 3rd to the 5th. 

      I wonder what that   mayor of London is gonna say now?

  10. Will CBC and CTV cover the funeral services for those killed in Sri-Lanka.....just like they did with those killed in New Zealand?

      Did your church give equal time in prayer for the people shot in NZ?

      I don't know.    I don't go to church regularly.

      But that's not the point.   We're talking about media coverage  - especially the CBC, which is taxpayer's funded!

      I'm pointing out the stupidity of over-coverage!  Why do these media give us endless coverage (like the Humboldt) - for crying out loud!   Now, they even cover the memorial service for its anniversary! Does it matter how people get killed? 

      But of course, we can't help but see the political point of covering Muslims that get murdered (through terrorism), and yet don't give the same airtime to others (particularly Christians).  That's the bias I'm talking about.

       

      If you're going to take my status off-topic, you'll get deleted.

  11. Trudeau-supporting media trying to break up Conservative Alliance of Premiers by pitting one against the other?

  12. Liberals writing off billion worth of loan to Chrysler, without details or any explanation!

    CRA also written off 133 million tax debt by a single taxpayer.   Won't reveal who.

  13. America is being wrecked from within. The Democrats are selling out the USA for political points!
  14. Calling conservatives "White supremacists," is beginning to sound like Hillary's "deplorable."

      If most conservatives aren’t white supremacists, then how would so-called dog whistles rally support?

    3. betsy

      betsy

      Actually, it's pundits (journalists) who made that observation (Liberals trying to tie up conservatives (like Scheer) to white supremacists -  I think it was on CTV Power Play - saying that it's starting to sound like: Hillary's deplorables. 

      One said people are not buying into it.  They say it could backfire against the Liberals.  Journalists must be seeing some negative reaction from the public.

      Only the most backward of voters would actually believe it

  15. Russian interference/Wikileaks - the motivating factor was the desire to see Hillary Clinton defeated more than having Trump elected! Big difference!   No matter who ran against her - Russia would try to get her out!    Clinton has made a personal enemy of Putin!

    Putin must've been having the biggest laugh that fateful election night!

      I'm sure it's been a barrel of fun in Moscow, for a couple of years now!
      Putin has a great sense of humour, I understand.

      Russia also proliferates anti-fracking propaganda too, that’s then used and spread by environmentalist groups and far left political parties in North America.

  16. Lol. Illegal pot is far more cheaper - so, it's very much preferable! I kinda imagine the whole PMO having a toke session every time they have their meeting.
  17. I have ways......... I wonder if that's really his own tongue sticking out? Could've been doctored?.....
  18. WHERE HAVE ALL THE FEMALE PREMIERS GONE? 

    1. scribblet

      scribblet

      Voted out but was nothing to do with gender, absolutely zilch

  19. I can't help but notice - for all of Trudeau's gab about more women in politics, here is something glaring: WHERE HAVE ALL THE FEMALE PREMIERS GONE? lol. They're all gone with the wind! Most, if not all of them, got only one term! https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/women-premiers-disappear-notley-1.5102897 Who voted them out? Just shows you - it isn't about gender, Justin. It shouldn't be.
  20. Lol. Looks like Jason Kenny wasn't kidding at all. https://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2018/05/16/jason-kenney-finger-bowl-justin-trudeau_a_23436336/ We've seen the proof! The proof is in the pudding! We can't have someone like Trudeau continue wrecking the country! If Liberals love him for his looks and his drama - get the liberals produce his film, or something. Give him a sitcom!
  21. It's a contest! They want to know which country's population is the most dumb!
  22. Lol! You saying you belong down there with him?
  23. Who's the fifth one? I have not seen the prowess of Scheer and Singh and May as PM, so I can't really make any comparison. However, I have seen how Trudeau is! Sorry to say but....among the whole lot of world leaders, we can say Trudeau belongs somewhere at the bottom of the barrel. Lol.
  24. Your "keyword" is pathetically "off-key!" Practically everyone - except him and you - can analyze and show that he's made such terrible decisions, one after another! But then again, like I said, "if YOU THINK......" Therefore, it's your perspective that's in question! One thing we do know though........your bar for what you think is "smart and superior," is too low! So. Between you and Trudeau - who do you say, is smarter?
