If the punishment is a fine, it isn't really illegal for rich people.

" In fiscal year 2024–25, Canada's federal government provided CAD 31.9 billion in subsidies and other financial support for energy production and consumption. Fossil energy received 75% of this support, followed by 22% for clean energy, and 3% for nuclear and mixed energy."

You young 'uns won't remember but in 1999, Gwynn Morgan, then president of Alberta Energy Company, colluded with the RCMP to set off a bomb that blew up a shed at a gas well site. They did this to try to entrap locals who were acting against the oil wells' sour gas leaks, and also to drum up public sympathy for the oil&gas company whose shed was blown up. #fossilFuels #cdnpoli

The original plan was for Gwynn Morgan and the RCMP to blow up an oil tanker truck but Morgan was afraid it would prove too unnerving to truckers so they settled on a shed.

There used to be a lot of CBC stories about this RCMP/oil&gas company conspiracy but I think this is the only one still standing:

NaPo headline: Polls show Americans dislike Canada more than ever
Poll numbers from the article: Americans who see Canada favourably dropped from 91% to 80%

Why are we subsidizing this US rag again? #media

I'm guessing Coke is thinking the part that's going to cause them "undue hardship" is that the injured worker repeatedly warned management about the malfunctioning door that eventually injured him. #cdnpoli

Mulcair, you may remember, applied to join Stephen Harper's staff in 2007 prior to joining the NDP, but according to Macleans, Harper did not offer enough money.

Former NDP leader Tom Mulcair's lavish public praise for PP's appearance on Joe Rogan's podcast seems unlikely until you remember Mulcair joined Stephen Harper's lobby firm Wellington Advocacy in January.
While Harper does not actually appear on Wellington's masthead, there he is in all the Xmas photos and formally welcoming new staffers.
Mulcair said Poilievre gave one of the best political speeches I've heard any Canadian political leader give." #cdnpoli

So the US knew the location of the Iranian ship off Sri Lanka bc both the US and Iran were part of a military exercise hosted by India which the US pulled out of at the last minute, presumably so as to bomb the unarmed Iranian ship.
The former Indian FM:

The Prime Minister of Spain on FB 3 hours ago:
"The world, Europe, and Spain have faced this critical moment before. In 2003, a few irresponsible leaders dragged us into an illegal war in the Middle East that brought nothing but insecurity and pain.
Our response then must be our response now:
NO to violations of international law.
NO to the illusion that we can solve the world’s problems with bombs.
NO to repeating the mistakes of the past.
NO TO WAR."

Remember when Alykhan Velshi from the neocon American Enterprise Institute was Harper's director of issues management and took over Ezra Levant's Ethical Oil website to contrast Canada's good "democracy oil" vs Iran's evil "conflict oil"?
Maybe the Carney gov could recycle some of those old posters for the folks in the back. #Iran #cdnpoli

100 users are responsible for almost 70%t of all online conspiracy claims in Canada.
In 2025, Meta made $16 billion from ads for scams and banned goods, including from Epoch Times in ads targeting Canadians under false names.

Jeffrey Rath of Alberta Prosperity Project is suddenly more coy about their ultimate 'sovereignty' objective actually being Alberta joining the US.

Amended: Although they have been on the Alberta Repubulicans separation list for a year, Joseph Schow, Minister of Jobs, Economy, Trade and Immigration; Rajan Sawhney; and RJ Sigurdson told CTV they have not signed the petition and say they don't support independence, so I amended the post above.

This is from nearly a year ago on FB.
Don't let them pretend they haven't been taking steps toward US statehood for a year.

Jeffrey Rath, March 6, 2025: "There's a group of Albertans that are working together right now to put together a delegation to go to Washington to talk to the Trump administration about Alberta positioning for US statehood."

Angus Reid poll on Canadian response to Trump:
66% say they would give Trump an ‘F’ for his first year of his second term, while 15% grade him either an ‘A’ or a ‘B’.
The latter group is mostly composed of those who voted Conservative in last year’s federal election; half (50%) of CPC voters give Trump a ‘C’ grade or better. #cdnpoli #poll
