Roughly 75% of the containers unloaded at Vancouver and Prince Rupert—about 900,000 physical containers each year—are shipped east through Alberta, primarily by rail.

If B.C. demands a royalty on Alberta oil moving west, why should B.C. freight cross Alberta for free?

Fairness must work both ways.

NEW STUDY: Top 20% of Canadians NOW pay 65% of all Personal Income Taxes

and the bottom 20% pay just 0.7% of taxes!!

Together, the top 40% of income earners pay 85% of ALL income taxes......insane levels of wealth redistribution!

BREAKING: In an unprecedented move, the UN has finally admitted that Hamas is blocking aid into Gaza.

They describe a system of arresting drivers, intimidating and threatening aid workers, and limiting aid.

Israel has been vindicated once again.

I have engaged many liberal voters in my neighbourhood. They are utterly oblivious to any evidence that might require them to alter their positions. The main position that they take: "I'm a good person. I'm liberal. This is why I vote liberal."

Ambassador of Japan: “To be very frank with you, before these pipelines there was not so much… possibility that Japan imports Canadian crude oil because of lack of infrastructure to all the oil existing in Alberta. But once you have the pipelines, you have the facility to export your oil to Asia, then that’s a totally different story,"

Fact check time.

Older data centres required massive amounts of water and took large amounts of electricity from the grid. What Alberta is building is the complete opposite.

@meta's Sturgeon Data Centre will use a closed-loop, liquid-cooled system with dry cooling that requires no operational water use for cooling. In fact, it will use less water than an average Alberta golf course.

The data centre campus will be developed under Alberta’s “bring your own power” approach. Rather than relying solely on Alberta’s electricity grid, the project will combine grid-connected electricity with generation from a new $4.6 billion private-sector funded on-site natural gas power plant, helping protect grid reliability. This will benefit electricity customers across the province by reducing transmission costs by up to six per cent on Albertans’ utility bills.

Annually, Alberta moves $30B of oil west through B.C.

B.C. moves $55B of B.C.’s goods east through Alberta.

If Ottawa accepts the idea that B.C. should be paid for Alberta’s access to tidewater, it creates the obvious precedent: Alberta can charge for B.C.’s access to eastern markets.

This is interesting. Would be good to review the hopeful story.

[(((Stockwell Day))) @Stockwell_Day]

Your kids have been told that the world is dying, and the only hope is to shut down almost everything. At least respect your kids enough to show them are two sides of the story.

Dear teachers everywhere, please stop terrifying students by telling them that the world is coming to an end through global warming. At least let them know there are thousands of scientists who don’t agree with that. There is a future.

[Pierre Poilievre @PierrePoilievre]

In a recent YouTube video, Mark Carney had a confession to make: he will not meet Liberal emissions targets.

At least he was honest about that.

So, let's be honest about this: he pretends phasing out oil and gas was someone else's idea.

For a decade he was the worldwide CEO of the idea. He built his entire persona around Net Zero.

He claimed fossil-fuel-caused climate change was an "existential crisis", which in plain English means the world could end.

He was the UN's Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance where he recommended 65% of oil and gas should stay in the ground.

As Trudeau's Economic Advisor, he advised bigger and broader carbon taxes than even Trudeau had imposed.

He founded a banking alliance with the mandate to starve oil and gas of investment.

At Brookfield, his job was to use his political influence to get government handouts for his "green" investments (heat pumps, pricey "green" aviation fuel, etc.).

He made fortunes off an agenda that inflated costs and killed jobs for the working class around the world.

He didn't inherit this ideology. He built it. He milked it.

Now, he claims he changed his mind. Really? So, it’s no longer an existential crisis? Was he wrong for last decade?

If so, why go on hiking the industrial carbon tax by 500%?

Why has he not scrapped a single Trudeau-era anti-development law?

Why are 500 projects still waiting for federal approval?

Why has he not used his unprecedented powers in Bill C-5 to approve a single project?

Because it is all an illusion.

It was always about enriching the club. And it still is.

He will sound the alarm on new crises. The solution will be the same: heavy-handed, top-down crony capitalism—taxes, inflation, and debt for you, and handouts, bailouts, and carve-outs for the Liberal club. All to save us from the latest crisis.

The only way to change any of this is with a party that has been saying the same thing all along: get the government out of the way; free our businesses from all carbon taxes, red tape, and subsidies to unlock abundant, affordable energy. For Canada. For you.

Remember how Gazans used to dig out water pipes and repurpose an entire sewage system in Gaza just to make rockets and fire them at Israeli cities?

Later, they claimed to be victims, saying they didn’t have water.

Start a war, lose badly, then play the victim.

🚨BREAKING: The IDF has released new footage of the massive Hezbollah terror underground tunnel it destroyed yesterday, full of weapons.

The tunnel was just 6 miles from Israeli civilians.

Share this. The mainstream media won't.

You must be mistaken, Roman. We were assured just a few weeks ago by the CBC itself that everything they put into the world is 100% true, and that we always get the full story.

Contrary to reports, Seth Hatfield's manifesto is about taking down capitalism through terrorism, not lashing out against women, writes @terrynewman

[Ezra Levant 🍁🚛 @ezralevant]

READ HIS MANIFESTO: The Montreal murderer was a Jew-hating Communist censor

The murderer in Montreal has been named: Seth Hatfield, from Alberta. He murdered a policeman in a shooting spree in a Jewish neighbourhood in Montreal.

Soon afterwards, government journalists at the CBC and elsewhere started describing a manifesto that he had left behind. But none of them published the actual document — they just quoted the odd phrase from it, and called him an “incel”. That’s a term for someone who was “involuntarily celibate”, or someone who didn’t do well with women. The usual suspects were doing the media circuit claiming that Hatfield was a “right wing” extremist.

But if that was true, why was the manifesto being shown only to selected, government-friendly journalists? Why were the rest of us blocked from seeing it for ourselves?

Well, that just changed. Rebel News has acquired a copy of the full, 104-page manifesto. You can read it for yourself right here: https://t.co/fAYaqOVZZe

It’s true that the murderer had extreme ideas about women. But that was only a small part of his world view. In most of the rest of his rambling remarks, he was indistinguishable from left-wing politicians like Bernie Sanders, Avi Lewis, or half the Liberal cabinet.

He praised Communism. He called for the abolition of private property. He railed against the Jews, and Zionism. And — like Mark Carney himself — he demanded the censorship of the Internet.

Read the manifesto of a crazed, left-wing extremist.

And never forget: the mainstream media lies to you about everything important.

I fixed the headline: “Indigenous woman and her son, denied justice because of the race of her killer.”

🔥 Jeremy Clarkson had a fiery clash with BBC’s Victoria Derbyshire at the farmers’ protest against Reeves’ inheritance tax raid on family farms.

Victoria went straight for the gotcha:

“So it’s not about you, it’s not about your farm and the fact you bought a farm to avoid inheritance tax?”

Clarkson, visibly stunned:

“Classic BBC there, classic. The ‘fact’ that I bought a farm to avoid inheritance tax? The ‘fact’?”

Victoria doubled down: “You told The Sunday Times in 2021 that’s why you bought it?”

Clarkson, laughing in disbelief:

“These people… BBC. Let’s start from the beginning. I wanted to shoot. That’s even worse to the BBC. Which comes with the benefit of not having to pay inheritance tax.”

He pointed out the tax isn’t even an issue for him personally as he can simply put the farm in a trust, but he’s standing with ordinary family farms that will be hammered.

After sparring over the real numbers affected, Clarkson urged the government to U-turn.

Victoria: “And get the money from where?”

Clarkson: “Walk into any of the offices around here and if you don’t understand what somebody’s job is, fire them.” 😂

Classic Clarkson.
