Goddess Posted May 15 Report Posted May 15 UAE to build new pipeline to bypass the Strait of Hormuz. It will be finished in 2027. ** Cries Canadian tears ** 1 1 Quote "There are two different types of people in the world - those who want to know and those who want to believe." ~~ Friedrich Nietzsche ~~
Goddess Posted May 15 Report Posted May 15 This is extortion. Before Alberta is *allowed* to export it's oil overseas, create thousands of jobs, and billions for the economy, they must first agree to: > increase in industrial carbon tax > net zero targets > methane regulations > $20 billion Pathways Project or no pipeline "Do as I say or you don't get to make a living." Sounds more like authoritarianism than cooperative federalism. Via L Wayne Matheson: Carney isn’t some neutral national steward who wandered into politics carrying a lunch pail and a dream. He is the carbon-finance guy. GFANZ was launched in 2021 under Carney’s leadership as UN climate finance envoy, and its own material says it tied together financial firms with more than US$70 trillion in assets at launch. By late 2021, GFANZ was boasting that net-zero financial commitments had climbed past US$130 trillion. Then Carney went to Brookfield. Brookfield announced him as Vice Chair and Head of ESG and Impact Fund Investing in 2020, and later he became closely tied to its transition-investing strategy. Now as Prime Minister, he is pushing carbon markets and industrial carbon pricing while talking about pipelines like they are bargaining chips in a climate-finance spreadsheet. Reuters reports Ottawa and Alberta are moving toward an industrial carbon-pricing deal, with an effective Alberta credit cost rising toward $130 per tonne, and that this deal may help clear the path for a new crude pipeline. So spare us the “pragmatic centrist” routine. This is not normal resource policy. This is Canada’s energy future being filtered through the worldview of a man who spent years building the global carbon-finance machine. The pattern is obvious: First, create the carbon system. Then, make industry depend on it. Then, make provinces bargain through it. Then, call the whole thing “nation-building.” No. Nation-building is pipelines, LNG, nuclear, mines, ports, rail, affordable power, and private capital willing to risk money in Canada again. Carney’s version is different. It is permission-slip capitalism. You may develop your own resources, but only after kneeling before the carbon market. That is the sickness in Ottawa now. They don’t ask, “How do we make Canada rich again?” They ask, “How do we make every productive industry pass through our climate-control booth first?” Canada has oil. Canada has gas. Canada has uranium. Canada has critical minerals. Canada has engineers, workers, ports, railways, and customers waiting around the world. What Canada lacks is a government that will get out of the way. Carney is not fixing the Liberal decade of decline. He is professionalizing it. Same anti-growth ideology, better suit, colder voice, bigger spreadsheet. 2 1 Quote "There are two different types of people in the world - those who want to know and those who want to believe." ~~ Friedrich Nietzsche ~~
Goddess Posted May 15 Report Posted May 15 Carney is doing all this in spite of the UN-backed scientific community acknowledging that the planet is NOT warming as fast as their previous worst-case scenario projections suggested and downgrading the most extreme climate scenarios that have given rise to trillions of dollars spent on climate mitigation and carbon taxation. This is not making the news but Canadians need to know. Because Carney is still full steam ahead on Net Zero fantasies while the rest of the world wakes up and are abandoning them en masse. And he's putting in very expensive policies that are designed to re-shape our economy, energy systems and food affordability. To the detriment of Canadians. But to the benefit of his Net Zero shares. Canada is the last to abandon this scam and THAT'S why he's here and in power. It's the last place on the planet where he can continue the scam. 2 1 Quote "There are two different types of people in the world - those who want to know and those who want to believe." ~~ Friedrich Nietzsche ~~
Goddess Posted May 15 Report Posted May 15 Something to think about when evaluating Carney's plan to join the EU: Switzerland built the world's most prosperous society by doing exactly what every government expert told them not to do: staying neutral, keeping taxes low, and letting markets work. While the EU suffocates its members with 170,000 pages of regulations, Switzerland maintains bilateral trade agreements that preserve sovereignty. Swiss GDP per capita hits $94,000 versus Germany's $51,000 and France's $45,000. The Swiss franc remains one of the world's strongest currencies because the Swiss National Bank can't print money to fund Brussels bureaucrats. Meanwhile, EU nations surrender monetary policy to unelected technocrats who inflate away savings to finance welfare states. The regulatory contrast is staggering. Switzerland ranks 4th globally in economic freedom while EU heavyweights like Germany (16th) and France (64th) plummet under Brussels' command-and-control apparatus. Swiss unemployment sits at 2.1% compared to the eurozone's 6.4%. Swiss labor markets remain flexible while EU employment laws make hiring workers feel like adopting teenagers forever. Brussels promises prosperity through harmonization, but delivers stagnation through standardization. Every EU directive removes another price signal from the market, replacing voluntary exchange with political allocation. Swiss neutrality isn't just about avoiding wars (though that 200-year peace dividend helps). Economic neutrality means staying out of supranational central planning schemes that turn dynamic economies into managed decline. The EU's answer to Switzerland's success? Punitive measures and threats to cut off market access unless the Swiss submit to Brussels rule. Nothing exposes the coercive nature of the European project quite like watching bureaucrats demand that free people abandon the policies that made them rich.

Goddess Posted May 15 Report Posted May 15 (edited) Bill C-22's architecture is similar to laws in place in China, Russia, India and Viet Nam. Among allied democracies, the closest analogy is Australia's TOLA act (from 2018) which is currently being amended due to the economic harm it caused. Signal warns it would pull out of Canada if made to comply with lawful access bill - The Globe and Mail Both Apple & Meta have also warned they would do the same. And Shopify founder, Tobi Lutke has also said it. Also Windscribe, who posted this: We won't be far behind if C-22 passes. In its current state, VPNs would almost certainly require us to log identifying user data. Signal isn't headquartered in Canada so they can just shut off Canadian servers, but our HQ is. We pay an ungodly amount of taxes to this corrupt government, and in return they want to destroy the entire essence of our service to basically spy on its own citizens. Not happening. We'll move HQ and take our taxes elsewhere.

Goddess Posted May 15 Report Posted May 15 Martha Hall-Findlay says Carney is in error championing the Pathways Project at this point. "I was one of the creators of the Pathways Project and so it's not an easy thing for me to say at this point." "We need to spend billions of dollars on national defense, on economic diversification, on trade, infrastructure. We don't have unlimited resources in Canada" "... let's spend those billions of dollars on the things that we need more immediately. Pathways Carbon capture and storage doesn't hit that list in my view right now."

I am Groot Posted May 18 Report Posted May 18 How much does the Left hate Canada, and how hard are they working to destroy any semblance of culture, values, traditions and a shared sense of identity? Just look at how they treat our history. In no other country around the world will you find the level of vilification and deliberate fabrication of a country’s founding hero than in Canada. There is no Macdonald City. There is no Province of Macdonald. There are only a handful of Macdonald schools left in Canada, and most Macdonald statues have been either torn down or carefully removed from public view. The federal government erased his biography from the Government of Canada website. His home in Kingston, Bellevue House, was reopened after six years of renovations in 2024 as a shrine to decolonization and reconciliation. The first words you see when visiting Bellevue House after the visitor centre are “He was a monster.” https://www.junonews.com/p/faulkner-john-a-macdonald-needs-no Quote "A civilization is not destroyed by wicked men; it is destroyed by weak men who cannot defend what is good.” — G.

Goddess Posted May 27 Report Posted May 27 (edited) This is why Tim Hortons Canada no longer requires Temporary Foreign Worker Program, 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗴𝗼𝘁 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗜𝗠𝗣 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 as Canada broke all previous quarterly records for Work Permits approvals. Mark Carney is lying to you. In the first 90 days of 2026, Canada issued 292,855 work permits, smashing the full-year target of 220k–230k. 247,895 under IMP (International Mobility Program) 44,960 under TFWP Why employers love the IMP: It’s a much cheaper, faster, and easier alternative to the TFWP. Key Financial & Practical Benefits of IMP (vs TFWP): No LMIA required Saves $770+ per worker (no $1,000 LMIA fee) No mandatory job advertising to Canadians Much faster processing (weeks vs months) Lower compliance costs — only $230 employer fee Fewer obligations around housing, wages, and recruitment More flexible permits for workers (easier to retain staff) This is exactly why companies like Tim Hortons and many in hospitality/retail have shifted heavily to IMP workers. It’s faster, cheaper, and bypasses most of the strict labour market tests required under the TFWP.

Venandi Posted May 27 Report Posted May 27 (edited) 2 hours ago, Goddess said: No mandatory job advertising to Canadians On the plus side, all of the seasonal Canadian helicopter pilots who, back in the day, responded to those bogus job adds (meant only to obtain a favourable LMO) won't feel tortured about it anymore... they can now drive their dump trucks in peace. I used to send those ads, a copy of my resume and covering letter to the Labour Minister when they came out... as did hundreds of others BTW. It was something of a letter writing protest. He'd always authorize the LMO anyway though. Edited May 27 by Venandi 1 Quote

Goddess Posted May 28 Report Posted May 28 Steven Guilbeault is leaving federal politics, and not a moment too soon. He may go down as one of the ministers who most aggressively weaponized science, funding questionable research groups like the Canadian Climate Institute and other pet projects to reinforce a single “climate crisis” narrative. Anyone claiming Guilbeault truly believed in science is fooling themselves. He treated science like a buffet — picking only what supported his agenda. That’s not science. He even misquoted me in the House of Commons, attributing claims to me that I have never said or published. That alone tells you everything you need to know about how evidence and dissent were handled under his watch. Good riddance.

The news agencies that favor the libs are stressing it's a " TECHNICAL" recession suggesting maybe it isn't a real recession. But the fact is most economists have been saying for some time that canada is in a practical recession with reducing gdp per capita etc for over a year.
