And I do hope more Canadians will change their minds aboot AB being "Canada's Texas/USA" or otherwise "I dislike these hicks" because of their love of fossil fuels, given what our PM has expressed of AB and his embracing of pipelines and fossil fuels as part of the whole shebang...

Interesting times indeed...
 
There are stranger things under cover of what's overhead ... while the thing burns itself out ... without a Q' loo 've common stuff ...

There has got to be an answer that would be extensive given the situation and complexity that is ignored! It would go on for some time I would think ...

No bores in heaven all the swine took a dive ...
 
Does diplomatic immunity require that a person declare themselves immune to diplomacy and thus they act volatile and fulminating?

As in that old Wahl 'n myth ... thar 'id blows. Gone With The Wind! Wayward or otherwise ... alternate comprehension ... all some know about is the emotional path-EH? No profound thought allowed ... could be embarrassing to M up there in essence! Thus Lo' another essence ... get in the Queue ... it is a sacred chord! Requires much etude ... yet, some are sure they know all they need to get a grip of ...

Complexity overwhelms all but the ultimate essence of God that is way ahead of us ... it is a sol thing very strange ... if you ever encounter such, a wee bit may rub off ... there are many fine examples! Consider stardust ... particle science or just particularly noted ... spots? Where E (energy) seizes ... according to mv ... momentum times velocity and Lord that goes by fast ... so that few understand momentum and relations with 8 Balls ...

These are demonstrated in Primavera ... 8 characters of which ONE is shadowy in the trees ... the satyr?

I didn't watch. I looked for some post debate discussion. The scrums were cancelled due to safety concerns. That was disturbing. I understand some more extreme outlets were allowed to there. Traditional journalists were attacked. Scrums were cancelled. It sounds like this is the results of rage farming over the the past few years. It's the result of pandering to the extreme. Sad.

Really the entire thing is sad and we need to dig deep ... although depth is censured ... at least on the face of it!

This article from CTV makes it sound like they had no choice. They tried to bar Rebel in 2019 and 2021 and lost in court when Rebel sued.

Post-leaders’ debate scrums cancelled due to security concerns

The leader scrums that had been scheduled for after the English-language debate have been cancelled due to security concerns, CTV News has learned.

The Globe has a more detailed discussion but locked it behind their paywall. Here's the link if there are any subscribers reading.

Post-debate press scrum scrapped at last minute over lack of ‘proper environment’

The move, which followed an argument in the media room, is another black eye for the Leaders’ Debate Commission amid a week of criticism

Didn’t Rebel have 5 reporters lined up and traditional outlets were having trouble getting in but there was nothing the debate commission could do about it because they lost a previous court case claiming Rebels activities/ lack of accreditation should disqualify them (so Rebel doubled down and sent a bunch)? So the commission decided to cancel because, basically, the questions were unfairly going to be weighted to some hotheads and it wasn’t going to be an environment conducive to productive questions and answers). I read about it somewhere, as I skimmed through a few articles this morning. That’s how I interpreted it. I’m not sure I totally understand what happened though.

Misinformation: some was covered by CBC.

Pollievre and Carney about Canada's clean oil and gas. No such thing.

Carney about Carbon Capture and Sequestration: this is a scam. About 40% of the energy produced would go to CCS. Planting trees, watering hemp fields, regenerative farming would sequester more carbon at a lower cost. Solar panels over parking lots, wind farms, and other renewable production of electricity would produce more power at lower cost than would the power used for sequestration.

Energy conservation measures would save more energy at a lower cost than would be used for CCS.

Pollievre's claim that the Liberals were responsible for inflation in Canada is bogus. A big driver in housing costs is making housing investments attractive through special tax laws supported by Conservatives and Liberals. Most of the rest were the result of supply chains, increasing costs of extracting and refining resources, and growing food along with retailers increasing markup.

Our country and our economy are not broken.

@Kimmio Laughterlove I believe that was also part of it.

Rebel News and maybe another one or two outlets are registered lobbyists or something biased. They are not impartial journalists at all. That should have disqualified them. I'm all for more variety in media, even when I disagree with the outlet. Being registered this way isn't good. Of course, most media has at least some bias.

I saw a clip of PP answering the security question. I wonder how many different answers he's given to that one. He needs to at least keep his story straight if that's even possible. It adds to his shady appearance. The funny part of the answer is it sounded like he said he would become gay if he got his clearance. He actually said gagged.

Yeah he needs a security clearance if he’s running for PM. Really, seriously. It’s required for lesser jobs.

I’m so tempted to make a dirty joke. Nope, nope, not going to.
