Why didn't Trudeau do any of these plans in the last 6 years that he had power. Why did the liberals vote down a proposal to do this two months ago

they don't know all alien abduction experiences can be explained by people thinking saving private ryan was a documentary

I had to double check and make sure that wasn't a Trudeau parody account, this is the sort of nonsense you would put in an SNL skit about how liberals propose complicated tax credits as a solution to an alien invasion.

I just hope the Maverick party splits enough for some close races in Alberta. Maybe NDP can sneak a riding.

Edmonton-Manning doesn't have a liberal candidate to split the vote so maybe NDP can sneak in there.

A bitcoin mining power plant secretly set up shop in Alberta. Now it's being forced to shut down

quote:

When residents of an affluent estate community in Alberta started hearing noise from a nearby power plant, they didn't expect their complaints of sleepless nights would lead to a months-long investigation that would find a bitcoin mining operation had set up shop without approval.

Now, Link Global, the company behind the site, is being ordered by the province's utility commission to shut down two plants until it can prove it's allowed to operate — a move the company says will cost jobs and cause the oil and gas infrastructure in which it operates to sit dormant.

This article has everything: rich people whining, buttcoin miners moving in without permits, CEO's claiming that jobs, oil and gas are threatened. Someone just ring the loving gong.

I don't like that everyone gave up and are going to let covid be endemic, but i'm not going to pretend that I'm going to singlehandedly accomplish covid zero when every level of government is actively working against that.

it single-handedly ensured that the liberals never get my vote for anything until they actually get rid of first-past-the-post. i don't care if it's for strategic voting reasons or they've personally promised me ten million dollars; it's non-negotiable
