Yeah, sounds like bullshit.

I wish Canada had a serious PM focused on fixing the many serious issues here, rather than galavanting around the globe and publicly fantasizing about a new world order.

Listened to it. Max was not very respectful and did his usually top heavy spin such as nonsense saying that solar is going to be preferable to natural gas because it’s cheaper when it comes to powering data centers. This claim falls apart the moment he skips over the difference between cheap energy and cheap 24/7 power. Solar may have a low marginal cost per kWh, but data centers don’t buy “sunshine when available” they buy continuous, guaranteed uptime. When you include the massive overbuild and battery storage required to turn solar into firm power, it becomes more than twice as expensive as natural gas. That’s not my opinion; that’s straight from S&P Global’s analysis of a Texas data center, which found a combined‑cycle gas plant costs $2.9B over 20 years, while solar storage costs $6.2B. So if the argument is “data centers choose the lowest‑cost fuel,” the math shows they clearly choose gas, not solar. And the examples he cited (Texas and South Korea) actually undermine his point. Texas has some of the cheapest solar in North America, yet its data centers overwhelmingly rely on natural gas because it’s abundant, dispatchable, and stable. South Korea, meanwhile, has limited land for solar and some of the highest electricity prices in the OECD, relying heavily on LNG, coal, and nuclear (not solar) for baseload. Even with aggressive build‑out targets, Korea’s Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy projects that fossil fuels and nuclear will still supply the majority of electricity for decades, because the country has limited land, high population density, and extremely high reliability requirements for its industrial base. Solar growth in Korea is real but it’s mostly distributed rooftop and small‑scale installations, not the kind of utility‑scale solar farms needed to power data centers 24/7.

Mark Carney’s grandfather once roundhouse kicked someone so hard that his foot broke the speed of light. Wait… No, that was Chuck Norris.

If you peddle the “Canada is an illegitimate colonial state on stolen land” claptrap, then you are probably not the best defender of Canada.
Some extreme activists are trying to bring Alberta separatism to BC. But British Columbians are proud Canadians who expect their to leaders stand up for Canada unequivocally. At every opportunity. The stakes are too high. 🇨🇦

Yeah, Musk’s wealth was just like winning the lottery. 🙄 It had nothing to do with his unique education, genius, ingenuity, vision, technical knowledge and judgement, tenacity, hard work, financial risks taken, management and project execution skills, and proven track record.

Albertans should approach the Oct 19 referendum fairly, calmly, and with clear eyes. This is not about anger or division. It is about whether Alberta can keep accepting a federal system that too often treats our province as a source of revenue rather than an equal partner. For decades, Ottawa has held Alberta back through policies that discourage investment, obstruct responsible resource development, and harm the prosperity that supports jobs, families, and public services. Albertans have tried elections, negotiations, court challenges, and constitutional arguments, yet the unfairness continues. That is why I believe Albertans should vote for Option 2 on Oct. 19. It is a democratic way to say the status quo is no longer acceptable. If Ottawa will not treat Alberta fairly, Albertans must be prepared to stand up for our economy, our future, and our right to decide what comes next.
Chatted with @MichaelSolberg from @VotetoStayAB about the referendum campaign & its goals leading up to October 19th. Here's my story on that. stalbertgazette.com/beyond-l…

If Carney was serious about creating competition to reduce food costs for Canadians, he would do something about the elephant in the room. The Dairy cartel AKA Milk Mafia.

Mark Carney’s new strategic partner. 😔
Looks like China is using hostage diplomacy again. A few years ago they used the same technique against Canada. The two Michael's were arrested on trumped up charges. The CCP operates like a crime syndicate and taking hostages is part of their MO.

On behalf of the Embassy of Israel in Canada I express my deepest condolences to the family, loved ones and colleagues of Police Constable Marc Pinizzotto, who was killed in the line of duty while serving the community and investigating the shootings at multiple Toronto Synagogues and the U.S. Consulate. x.com/torontopolice/status/2…

For a second day, we lined the route to the Office of the Chief Coroner in honour of sacrifice and service to our community by a police officer trying to make their community safer. Today, we saluted our own Emergency Task Force Constable Marc Pinizzotto who was taken from us far too early.
