Scathing op-ed from Lloyd Axworthy. "In his dystopian novel “Nineteen Eighty-Four,” George Orwell coined the term doublethink: the capacity to hold 2 contradictory beliefs simultaneously & accept both. Canada’s policy on climate — & other files, I daresay — has all its earmarks."

Email from my public library today reminding me the UCP is getting ready to monitor what we request and/or check out to read or view. And that they will be keeping lists for their "library monitors" aka Dan Williams and his weirdos. Is that list going to be safer than the electors' list?

A Canadian making $70k a year will save $11 a month. This will reduce contributions to the plan by $3 billion. A year. I can't even fathom the thinking that went into this. Carney keeps doing these tax breaks that don't do shit for individuals but cost the government billions. It's pathological.
