Completely unqualified like most of Trumps appointments. Lots of things you can criticize. Just wish people would not make fun of his eyes. Its demeaning to those with fixation disorders. Don't be like Trump.
They also love hypocrisy. No studies needed for anything that fits their MAHA agenda
Manufacturers have deliberately slow walked EV's. They are not as profitable. Fewer parts for resale, less servicing. Porenfar more reliable. They have large factories making gas and diesel engines . China without big oil and car manufacturer lobbyists doesn't care.
Our manufacturers have been deliberately holding back because EV's are lless profitable. They loose parts and servicing. Factories need investments. China literally has an EV technology race. New battery technology with faster charging and better range. The end of gas powered cars is coming.
I don't pay attention to anything from Post Media. Might as well be Tristan Hopper. Palmer is not the same reporter he was years ago.
Just wait 10 years. Oil to no where. We have Chinese manufacturers making rapid advances with EV's while we go backwards. Today's news CATL battery charges to 98% in 6 minutes. Today's Tesla will be an antique in the near future.
Might suggest FN negotiate something everyone will accept. The Conservatives could win because of this issue alone. If so they will abolish it entirely.
Pharma is reluctant to do research into something less profitable. This is one of the few benefits of RFK's influence. As well as the change in classification of pot. Trump isn't really a Republican, he's an opportunist that flips with the wind. RFK is a Libertarian. Its an odd combination.
This is the number one issue. You really can't overstate it. Conspiracy theories racism, science denial are driven by this. Then they blend them into a largley MAGA/populist soup. The left also suffers but its less unhinged.
BC has similar taxes. Should have been done decades ago. High end luxury homes that were curiously owned by students and housewives with minimal income. Dirty money laundered in Casinos. A provincial government deep in the pockets of developers that ignored the start of the housing boom.
Would be interesting to compare with medical professionals. I know from experience physicians and RN's aren't 100% correct. Sometimes even in their own specialty. Often old medical myths persist and they are difficult to correct.
Right after his 100 nurses he promised
They don't in BC. The lower mainland transit tax is 18.5 cents/litre. They almost never pass on the full savings in the communities right next door that it doesn't apply. Its often 5 to 10 cents.
Who would ensure companies don't just increase their profit margins? Thats exactly what they do.
Physicians will have less time to deal with patients who need care. Its going to lead to a large increase in demand. There just aren't enough Physicians for this.
Is not the GST is on the total cost of gas including taxes? It would vary around 6 to 10 cents per liter depending on location.
Traditional vehicle manufacturers and big oil have a vested interest in the status quo. Its going to take other countries like China driving around in vehicles that make us look like Cuba. We need to be developing better batteries and charging technology here.
If you work in heath care you see how this will lead to massive amounts of unnecessary follow up testing and physician visits. Physicians are often reluctant to let you go once something is discovered even though they believe its not a significant finding.
Mental gymnastics at an Olympic level. Religious particularly Evangelicals that are often manipulated are easy targets. Thats why he keeps that bizarre spiritual adviser around. She is a complete nut. Trump playing a scam.
Make more housing while large numbers of condos go unsold ? Someone without a vested interest should be examining supply needs. The market has slowed.
And ask what services he proposed to cut with ovwr 5 billion in lost revenue? On top of cuts already happening to the civil service.
Like many I can't watch. Lie after lie. He communicates at the level of a child. Now increasingly rambling and incoherent. He just makes a lot of things up thinking its entertaining like he is still a reality star on TV.
My head hurts these people have no clue. You don't spend billions with zero return for 5 or more years to produce more oil than is required. Even in its infancy EV's have already had an impact. Translink in BC is loosing revenue from the transit tax because demand is dropping. Just wait 10 years.
Companies would not pass the entire savings and use it to make even more profit. Then the Conservatives would complain about the deficit getting larger.
When they expanded the TMX one of the biggest selling points was gas would be cheaper for the lower mainland in BC. It didn't happen. The oil is exported to where its profitable. BC still brings in US gas,no one's building a refinery to loose money.
This is why we have the "Canada is broken" crowd. Apparently the health care system I work in never successfully treats any patients. None of the ferries function. Unfortunately controversy is more media worthy. I get it my father was a journalist.
Its costly to care for those who are bed ridden or in wheelchairs. Special washrooms. Fire and earthquake standards add huge costs. Its basically a hospital. You end up with disruptive transfer when a senior deteriorates if a home only provides basic care.
Better to plan what is Alberta going to do in the future. Oil is in demand at this moment but thats going to drive alternatives even more.
Thats some BS. He know its not viable and wants government to pay for it. More big oil welfare. Demand for oil and gas is predicted to drop by 2035. Not enough time to pay off tens of billions for a pipeline that won't be ready for years
I wonder how many young men run to get their testosterone levels checked because of Joe Rogan? A lot of patients end up on a regular cycle of testing and physician visits from initial testing. Physicians are often reluctant to miss something even when they believe a finding is inconsequential .
