Conservative Ford gives everyone $200.00 GoodLiberal Trudeau gives everyone $200.00 BadCarbon Tax Money coming to the Soo. Clean Air is Good but If it comes from the Liberals it must be bad. Someone should ask Dr. Ian Symington what his thoughts are on Private For Profit Clinics. I guess his answer will depend on which Political Party brings it in.Some people just don't like the colour Red.https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/sudbury/algoma-steel-420million-feds-clean-technology-1.6090465

Is it time to consider shipping goods by rail? Have a series of Loading and Unloading Stations like Naval Shipping Ports. Consider large and small shipping containers so that large or smaller trucks can then deliver goods to consumers over a much shorter distance. It will certainly reduce the volume of traffic.

A Lot.....HmmmmmmA Lot is not exactly a Scientific Form of Measurment. I wonder how much "A Lot" will become when you consider the fact that Canada, with it's Deflated Dollar, buys the bulk of their gasoline from Angry "King Donald of Orange", "The Offender in Chief", He who is "Above the Law", He who will most likely be exonerated on January 10th at his Sentencing. (Source Google)From Google: Yes, Canada imports gasoline from the United States: Crude Oil: In 2022, 72% of Canada's crude oil imports came from the U.S., which is the largest source of Canada's imported crude oil. Most of the crude oil imported from the U.S. comes from the Gulf Coast and Midwest regions. Refined petroleum products: In 2022, 80% of Canada's refined petroleum product (RPP) imports came from the U.S. This increase was due to growing oil sands production and the general economic recovery. So now that Trudeau is gone you might wanna consider exchanging your flag for F**Trump

If you are here to complain about Trudeau....It's because you didn't die of Covid39 Million Republican Floridians, Georgians, Louisianians, Alabamians and Mississippians with 182,000 Covid Deaths.39 Million Democrat Californians with 102,000 Covid Deaths39 Million Canadians with Government Imposed Covid Mandates 54,000 Covid Deaths.Mandates saved lives, and in a country where the Government pays for Health Care that saved moneyAnd in the case of Ontario's Doug Ford, Covid was an excuse to "make money". He held back 5.6 Billion Dollars of Federal Covid Assistance Money and what does everyone do??? Blame TrudeauDo you think the world over reacted to Covid? Yea a lot of the survivors seem to think so.

WATCH: With Ford’s blessing, Mulroney endorses Poilievre

12

Conservatives have always been know for Putting Canadians First and being Fiscally Responsible. And who shows more Fiscal Responsibility than the former Governor of the Bank of Canada and the former Governor of the Bank of England. Carney would have made the perfect Conservative Primeminister and if he was wearing a Blue Jersey you can bet that Caroline Mulroney would have endorsed him. But she has thrown her support behind someone who wants to put Canada First by Making Measles Great Again. Pierre Poilievre is Not Brian Mulroney, He is Not John Diefenbaker, He is not even Joe Clark. He's has a long list of complaints but no realistic solutions. But at least he's wearing the right coloured Jersey. Doesn't matter who....Just vote Bluehttps://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/article/poilievre-backed-anti-covid-19-vaccine-mandate-bill-fails-to-pass-house/

Time to leave the USA out of the equation. Time to start building Pipelines, High Speed Rail Lines, and Ships in Halifax.

Not being an expert on gasoline I checked out a Government of Canada Website. Of course many notable Scientists have stated that Burning of Fossile Fuels contributes to Climate Change. Coal being a major offender and Natural Gas though still not perfect is not as detrimental to the climate.So Eliminating the Carbon tax might be Wonderful......If coupled with a plan to help the Environment.https://www.cer-rec.gc.ca/en/data-analysis/energy-commodities/crude-oil-petroleum-products/report/archive/2019-gasoline/index.html

Province says school boards are to blame for classrooms without A/C

Those darn School Boards. Imagine short funding the Capital Expebditures Budget to compensate for the fact that the Provincial Government has slashed funding for Autistic Children and others with Special Needs Programs. If the Provincial Government really wants to help Ontario Education, cancel EQAO. The cost is in the Millions and the results have not changed significantly in over 20 years.EQAO costs Millions to run. It's the "Drive Clean" of Education

Bob Rae's NDP's came to power with promisses of increased funding for Health Care, Education, and a whole host of other Social Programs, most notably helping single mothers. The only problem was that the Federal Liberals lost the Election and "Brian GST Mulroney" with his platform of Fiscal Responsibility, while granting Tax Cuts for Big Business, cut Federal Transfer Payments to the Provinces. Bob Rae was stuck out on a limb with a whole list of unfulfilled promisses. Enter Rae Days......And we all know how much better things became under Mike Harris / S.

Premier Doug Ford wishes Ontarians a happy new year

SooToday

Well isn't that nice / S. I'm so glad to see that he used Conservative Media to get his message across rather than buying another Ad. Meanwhile, Ford has held back 5.6 Billion Dollars in Federal Covid Funding.....Why? Over 2 million Ontarions are unable to find a family doctor and Ford has been using taxpayers money to purchase advertising so he can tell Ontarians how wonderful he is. That way Ontarions can feel all warm and fuzzy, while we wait in an Emergency Room Hallway. Healthcare is a Provincial responsibility and everyone want's to blame Trudeau. What's with that? Trudeau gave Ford 5.6 Billion, but Ford is saving it as "Start Up Funding" for Private For profit Clinics. And they will all be in Southern Ontario.https://www.catherinefife.com/ford_held_back_5_6_billion_that_should_have_been_used_to_protect_ontarians_ndp
