In my latest Loonie Politics column I say Justin Trudeau has reverted to type on squeezing cash out of Google and Meta for Canadian media, and it ain’t pretty.
“unlike traditional commodities, which sometimes during the course of their market exchange must be delivered to someone in physical form, the carbon market is based on the lack of delivery of an invisible substance to no one.”
Mark Schapiro (apparently) in Harper’s in early 2010 [I found it here https://www.integrity-research.com/wanted-independent-research-to-assess-carbon-offsets/ but the link back to Harper’s is broken, as is a similar link in another piece quoting it; perhaps Harper’s pulled it; this piece attributes it to Mark Schapiro: https://www.reddeeradvocate.com/columns/air-travel-major-contributor-to-climate-change/].
In my latest Epoch Times column I say at their national convention the federal Liberals should have tried to sell themselves to the nation as older and wiser not conceited and reckless.
In my latest National Post column I highlight the hypocrisy of Justin Trudeau about fighting global warming while having a huge carbon footprint, and climate alarmists generally about following “the science” while peddling junk numbers.
“Lord Salisbury’s observation that ‘no lesson seems to be so deeply inculcated by the experience of life as that you should never trust in experts’”

In my latest National Post column I say the Friday-afternoon dump of the supposed and long-awaited Sustainable Jobs Plan could not hide that its authors have no idea what a plan even is, or what practicality is, which is why they have no interest in why central planning has always failed and always will.
In my latest Epoch Times column I say the Prime Minister is blithely uninterested in Communist subversion while bitterly opposed to domestic dissent.
