@antonoki @SteveSaretsky And electric car drivers pay 12 cents/kwh while our gov pays California 25 cents/kwh to burn gas and sell us electricity. I can’t anymore with our govs of last 10 years. It’s insanity defined. All the Tesla driving wealthy families in Dunbar + west Van thank you for your $ folks

Canada is set to become the only country to cap oil & gas production at a cost of ONE TRILLION dollars of GDP for what will be essentially zero reduction in global emissions.

[Martin Pelletier @MPelletierCIO]

Nine years.
- set policy to go after small and medium businesses after calling them tax cheats.
- massively increase public sector workers and govt bureaucracy such that 1 in 4 working Cdns are employed by the govt.
- impose a carbon tax with large increases adding to the cost of living crisis. Exempt certain provinces because of who they vote for.
- open the floodgates of immigration and non-resident permits like never before putting massive strain on provinces regarding housing, health care, education and police.
- terrible economic productivity with Canadians financially worse off than they were in 2014.
- introduce a emissions cap on the only sector driving the economy at the moment because most of the sector is in Alberta.
Nine years.

To my American followers, please read this.

In Canada, you need $200,000 income to qualify to buy an average home. This is just shy of the $246k where you are taxed at rates over 50%. If your family income is above $90k, you��re pooched.

Nine years. It’s all out in the open now. A complete mess has been made. And he wants 5 more years. Wake the hell up Canada.

We have a serious problem with waiting times in BC for patients who need urgent cardiac care.

Long term patient I diagnosed with multi-vessel coronary disease. Young. Off work because of it. Needs urgent bypass surgery. This was back in February. Constant delays. No staff. Worsening. Ultimately now admitted because of the delays to hospital.

His surgery should have been done in March. It’s October. This is dangerous and puts his life at significant risk not to mention the mental anguish. Delays like this are not just an inconvenience.

@fullback15ca Oh and when I asked my 4th grader why she didn’t have spelling tests anymore she tells me that “science” shows it just gives kids anxiety and they don’t learn anymore. Funny cuz she sure learned a lot from Monday to Friday last year working on words. I can’t anymore…

Can confirm this system is a joke. They consulted and were told no one liked it including teachers and did it anyway

Instead of A, B or C, British Columbia now grades kindergarten to Grade 9 students on a scale from 'emerging' to 'extending' — and many parents are confused

Jail time for immigration consultants and any employer found complicit in this sort of shit!

This is a stain on Canada and a slap in the face for all immigrants who came here legitimately and followed all rules

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Thanks to our policy makers decisions we are poorer and getting more poor each quarter, imported goods more $$ and travel costs way more. Well done

https://t.co/S2trLItArV When health authorities require them, that’s a problem. Employers need to work with and trust their employees. MDs can’t be the arbiter. I 99% write what my patient tells me. I have to trust them.

@Tim_Pettit_ So despite losing 10 seats, possibly squeaking out a razor thin majority by a few votes in a couple of districts, Eby will act as though he has a historic mandate to govern from the far left with an iron fist. Our system works so well.

@PennyDaflos So now is the time where despite losing 10 seats, possibly squeaking out a razor thin majority by a few votes in a couple of districts, Eby will act as though he has a historic mandate to govern from the far left with an iron fist. Our system works so well.
