Hooray! The next election is going to be so fair!
Canada broke ranks with the US and refused to sanction a couple of Russian bigwigs. Of course it has nothing to do with their significant investments in Canada. Wouldn't those actually be two of the best guys to sanction if you were actually trying to prove a point?
This guy figures Trudeau has lost the Catholic vote with his abortion proclamation. Probably had already lost them on gay marriage, anyhow.
The new pipeline rules and regulations are far from "world class". And why a 1 billion cap on liability? 1,000 people out to an anti Enbridge rally is nothing to sneeze at.
Canada may be subsidizing energy companies to the tune of $34 Billion. Per year.
This is pretty much straight from the Stephen Harper playbook. Find a crime that happened once or twice. Ensure that it is something nobody can argue on behalf of. And put resources into creating a law against it. Voila. Tough on crime. Who doesn't love police dogs?
There's something kind of funny about an old dude like Julian Fantino defending spending $100,000 to promote a twitter account. I wonder if he knows what it is?
Garth lays out the sad state of employment affairs in Canada. Yikes.
Rafe Mair raises a good (and familiar) point. How is it a "jobs plan" to just dig shit out of the ground and put it on a boat?
Dean Del Mastro doesn't give up. Wants the RCMP to investigate Elections Canada. Charles Manson makes similar demands of the people that investigated him as well.
The NDP sent out lots of mailings using government resources. The Conservatives do this all the time as well...but Elections Canada is investigating. As well, the Thomas Mulcair grilling over NDP satellite offices has devolved into a bit of a sideshow.
A full swat team came to arrest the engineer on the train that exploded in Lac Megantic. I mean, when your crime is perhaps being negligent in operating a train, of course you should be considered armed and dangerous and have your entire family hauled out onto the front lawn at gunpoint after you offered to just come in on your own volition. Meanwhile, the owner declares bankruptcy and walks away.
This story reveals how silly government secrecy rules are. David Cameron's name has been redacted from documents about his official visit to Canada. The photo is pretty great.
Jason Kenney to the rescue! Somehow, we're going to tie the number of temporary foreign workers to the unemployment rate. Even though our ability to collect stats is bad. Another company swindled temporary foreign workers out of money.
Hold on a second. We have a "Federal Ombudsman for Victims of Crime"?
A nice long read on the history of the Experimental Lakes Area and the impact of bad government management.
This article lays out the case for a London housing bubble...and sounds oddly familiar.
This story highlights all the changes to other countries laws the USA wants. Canada and Japan need to get rid of privacy laws. Mexico can't put taxes on junk food. Canada needs longer pharmaceutical patents.
