  • Stop subsidizing oil and gas, in 2024 Canada handed over 29 BILLION to the oil and gas industry. It needs to stop now. After more than a century of industrial scale operation, if oil and gas can not operate without subsidies then maybe they are a failure as a business and they should be allowed to collapse.

    30 Billion could provide a lot of healthcare, public transit, and affordable housing.

    If the liberal government wants to spend 9B on defense I am all for it provided it comes from Canada’s industrial scale parasites.



  • I keep reading about how shocked Canada is by this behaviour, who didn’t see this coming?

    We have always been on the shit end of the trading stick. We sell energy at a huge discount, we sell petroleum at a discount, we sell lumber at a discount but we have always paid a premium for US imports. Fuck 'em, I’m tired of “the greatest country in the world” getting a deal because our politicians have been kissing their ass for decades.

    Canada should be focused on subsidizing domestic prices by making trade agreements where we don’t loose money,












  • We have age limits for smoking, drinking, driving, etc. and don’t expect only parents to be involved in that protection.

    Uh, if a parent gives their kids smokes, booze or car keys before they are of age it is 100% on the parent.

    Parenting is the act of instilling values and teaching the ability to reason out whether a behaviour or decision is appropriate. That includes whether or not to drive a car without a license, whether or not to drink when underage and whether or not it is appropriate to tell your teacher to get back in the kitchen.
