Last Notes npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Pierre Trudeau presented a Juno Award in 1979 and in 1980 he inducted Joni Mitchell into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. In 1981 he was in the audience as Liona Boyd’s date. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Not surprised, given how toxic this portrait of her is. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Her grammar ain’t great either. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Theoretically because when prices finally drop the gas that’s in the tanks was purchased at a higher price so it should (again I say theoretically) balance out for the gas stations and refiners. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 They neglected one salient fact: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 It’s a long term strategy by the Pension Plan board to make life unliveable so the world ends with a huge surplus left in it. /s npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Was she cleverly planning ahead to the day she could weaponize the immigrants? npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 So she is ignorant and a liar. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Danielle Smith is either ignorant or a liar … or both. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 CEOs of the large oil companies are focusing on maximizing profits for the benefit of the shareholders who are happy to increase the CEOs’ compensation. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 From their Wikipedia page: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Just to be clear, he’s the CEO and member of the board for DP World, the umbrella organization based in Dubai. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Because that’s what a Conservative government would do… npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 On Amazon you can buy an Alberta Republic trucker hat and an Alberta Independence hat for $18.99 each. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Imagine the money they’d have if our Supreme Court ruled for a similar Citizen United political donations law like in the US. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Section 46 of the Criminal Code defines High Treason and Treason. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 It’s interesting that the Canadian Press thought it was necessary to indicate that Mark Carney is on the right in this picture. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 It’s certainly a copy of the UN Security Council whereby countries that pay Trump $1 billion get to be permanent members and other countries get invited to serve three year terms. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 A cunning plan to get the Danes to blame Norway for the US invasion of Greenland, probably? npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 It didn’t surprise me that the Harper Government™ supported that contract but I was majorly disappointed the Liberals continued to support it. Clearly a political decision that protecting the well paid jobs for the workers at General Dynamics on London was worth overlooking the violations in the terms of the contract by Saudi Arabia. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 There’s history… npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 The Conservatives want to keep communities safe too, but from things that scare them more than crime. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 “The call is coming from inside the house!” npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 No disaster/armed conflict is too small to monetize. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 They need to try harder: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Canada started applying sanctions against Venezuela and Maduro starting in 2017 so it’s policy not to like him and be happy he’s no longer in power, except not be happy in the way he was removed. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 It’s a stereotypical Canadian compromise statement. Mustn’t be seen to support a dictator that’s been illegally removed from power while understatedly denouncing the illegal removal. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 A bunch of oil companies set up the Pathways Alliance which claims that they can get CCS working to a level where at least enough CO₂ produced during the production of oil will be captured resulting in net zero emissions. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 So what’s the solution? Over regulation appears to be a non-starter. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 I can appreciate the reason without accepting the result. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 At least Carney’s reason for suspending the plastic straw export ban is economic and not because it’s woke. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 If it can answer questions accurately for 99% of taxpayers then it’s a success. However a 10% failure rate for 1% of taxpayers is a still problem in need of resolving. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Given the complexity of the tax laws, will much higher than 90% from any source (CRA,AI, tax accountants & lawyers, etc) be achievable? npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 In 1999 the Conservative government in Ontario, Canada, passed an ‘Ontario Works’ law that had a provision for workfare “as a last resort.” npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Parks Canada has released a video on the importance of peatlands (and it just happens to include a shot of my daughter collecting peat samples for study). npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 I guess we should start building air raid shelters. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Seems like they’re settimg things up to make it easier to slip into becoming the 51st state if they can. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 After Xitter (briefly) exposed the location of many so called MAGA influencers as foreign based, it would have been interesting to see how many alleged Canadian accounts that support the Freedom Convoy Crowd actually aren’t. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 I understand that. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 The Media Bias/Fact Check website has this to say: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 The same in Finland. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 That $713 fine will undoubtedly be a significant financial hit on that Lamborghini owner. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Speaking of job commitments, the Alberta Local Authorities Election Act allows for three consecutive hours paid time off to vote if the hours of work don’t permit three free consecutive hours during the time polling stations are open. That Act may have to be amended for a longer time to be paid if the UCP intends on keeping the voter registration policy in place. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 That’s why I tagged my comment as satire. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Maybe the minglers were keen for a Darwin Award. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Unfortunately, that’s the politics of today’s world which isn’t all that new. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 It was easy to accuse Russia of war crimes because there’s a big block of Ukrainian voters vs Russian in Canada. The same cannot be said about Palestinian voters vs Jewish. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 “… all we need is the greenies to recognize our product as an interim step to allow the new technologies to mature.” npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 “Carney said the labour dispute was too big a disruption for the government to ignore. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Note that the Digital Services Tax Act has not been repealed so it’s possible it can be put back into place to collect the retroactive taxes plus any current ones not collected since it was rescinded June 29th. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Amazon closed their fulfilment centres in Quebec, ending union jobs, saying there wasn’t enough demand there. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 That was a campaign promise: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 As an oil industry publication has pointed out: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 It’s the PM’s job to appoint senators so maybe the majority of them felt honour bound to do so, even though this PM hasn’t appointed any yet. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 They keep hoping history repeats itself, like when Hitler annexed Austria and the people there were told to be thrilled when he visited. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 When the federal government cuts taxes they offload some services to the provincial governments who are also cutting taxes so they offload services to the municipalities who, by law, can’t run deficits so they cut services and still have to raise taxes. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 'There's no Canadian dream' says an Albertan wanting Canada to become the 51st state because he thinks he’d make more money. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Because THAT’S what will stop the flow of fentanyl and illegal migrants from crossing the border. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Especially liked the bit about: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Seen in a Montreal chat group about that Cybertruck that was stuck in a bit of snow: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Elon Musk, responding to the petition asking the Canadian government to revoke his citizenship, wrote on Xitter “Canada is not a real country.” npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Surely there’s plenty of three word slogans they can come up with to convince the #MapleMAGA hoards that this actually makes Carney look bad? npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 The Liberal Party has it running on their Bluesky account. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 The speed of change can be a distraction so 338 Canada’s methods may be a truer picture, but not necessarily accurate. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 “Ontario MPP Michael Ford says he won't run in next provincial election” npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 “Mark Carney talks tariffs, Trump, Liberal leadership in Daily Show interview” npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Whenever it’s suggested to stop funding fossil fuels, I’m reminded of this toot: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Another text from The Philippines about a bad Canadian zip code preventing delivery of a parcel during the mail strike… 🤦🏻♂️ npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Don’t know enough about the US electoral system. As #CouchHumper’s name was on the ballot with Trump’s does that mean he’s compelled to be VP? Or does he have to pull a #Gaetz and resign thereby allowing a bigger suck up to Trump become VP? npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Now that Trump has won, Elmo has muscled his way in so the techbros, like Peter Thiel, that wanted Vance as VP will have their needs met far better than they could have hoped. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 JD Vance isn’t there so at least some of the garbage is out. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 But thanks to the Streisand Effect the whole world is now aware that the LA Times and Washington Post editors planned to endorse Harris. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 He’s presumably referring to the Nuremberg Code which was amplified by anti-vaxxers at the height of the pandemic. It’s a non-binding post WWII protocol requiring consent for medical experimentation on humans. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Might have been Alain Rayes who was elected as a Conservative but now sits as an Independent? npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 “The Senate has become an important institution for the representation of minority interests and groups who may be underrepresented in the elected chamber (such as Indigenous peoples, minority language and ethnic groups, and women).” npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 He’ll be too busy recording a fund raising video to cry. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 “WHAT KIND OF CANADIAN HAS THE NERVE TO DISRUPT A TERRY FOX CEREMONY?!” npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 There was an upstairs room at 24 Sussex Drive set aside for some cats to live in while waiting to be adopted, according to a Macleans article in 2014: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 They have two very different purposes. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Based on his Xitter post, it appears Singh thinks he can beat the Liberals and the Conservatives. However he’s no Jack Layton, and if his second best hope is leader of the opposition we may find ourselves for the second time with the Bloc Québécois forming the Official Opposition. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 Maybe Singh will pull a Kevin Falcon and merge the NDP into the Liberal Party without advising its members. It would give the Liberals a majority now and a better chance of winning the 2025 election. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 The Post Millennial has the Algoma Story front and centre, being a right wing rag. Would they highlight it if Oakley has worked there in the past? Is suppose if they’re not too bright… npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 I don’t think so. He’s a video specialist at Mobilze Media based in Montreal (their head office is in Toronto) so why be a plant? npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 I don’t think so. He’s a video specialist at Mobilze Media based in Montreal (their head office is in Toronto) so why be a plant? npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 I find it odd, given his length of service in the House of Commons and the positions he had in the Harper Government™ and in Opposition under Scheer that he’s been shut out of roles since O’Toole was leader, and his referenda have stopped since Poilievre became leader. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 I live in the federal riding of Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston where Conservative MP Scott Reid has represented it since 2000. When we moved here in 2017, every now and then a pamphlet from him would be in our mailbox. He held constituency referenda to guide him how to vote on certain bills in Parliament. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 He may not introduce new legislation but he didn’t say he wouldn’t try to resurrect some old anti-abortion legislation and use the notwithstanding clause to make it stick, at least until the Cons are kicked out of government and it’s repealed. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 It’s men in general. Look who the main supporters of right wing parties are everywhere. npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 A study done in 2017 post-Trump found that very little will change the mind of the committed voter: npub1yntx6qpdg4jv5xxjalry6hm86acguryuyd89jj2xjzqm8t0hj9lq8u3zqj Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁 They’re speaking a language their followers understand.
