Next week there's a major arms fair in Ottawa. Representatives from two zionist weapons companies are speaking there.

In unrelated news, the paper that reported this story has had its application for credentials to attend the conference refused. Repeated requests for clarification and reasons behind the refusal have been met with silence.

"the sharp spike in oil prices caused by the U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran was immediately and proportionately projected into Canadian prices, even though the supply and cost of petroleum and petroleum products in Canada was unaffected..

Canada produces far more oil and gas than it consumes, and those domestic supplies are unaffected (in either cost or quantity terms) by events in the Middle East, Canadians are about to experience a
painful reprise of a similar cycle that occurred in 2022..

More petroleum is consumed in Canada by businesses, than by final consumers. So the final impact on overall costs and prices in the economy will be amplified by the indirect impacts of higher petroleum prices on the costs faced by those businesses. Their higher costs for purchases of petroleum products will be passed on to consumers in higher prices for non-petroleum goods and services..

Canada’s petroleum industry will set new profit records this coming year, just on the
basis of events that have already transpired. After-tax profits for the industry could easily double in the coming year..

In the deregulated energy market, sellers of oil and refined petroleum products in Canada match world price trends, no matter the cost of the oil that went into the gasoline they sell. Consumer prices for gasoline in Canada thus rise quickly with world oil prices..

in the 2022 oil price shock, workers in Alberta experienced the largest decline in real wages from the resulting inflation, of workers in any province..

the coming record profits for the petroleum sector will certainly lead to a widening
of the already worrisome gap between the wealthy and the rest of the population"

When will Canadian politicians challenge the economics that puts profits ahead of people? A banker prime minister knows how to challenge this.

Oil pricing is raising inflation rates. Will Canadians face interest rates that hurt us all, or policy that challenges speculation and outsized profit?

It’s a relief to hear the Prime Minister express some moral outrage over Ben-Gvir’s brutish behaviour, outrage which has been missing during Israel’s attack on Iran, bombardment of Lebanon and ongoing genocide in Gaza.

But strong words must be followed by strong action. Sanctioning individual ministers is not enough when this cruelty is mirrored in Israeli state policy. Close the loophole on arms sales, cancel the free trade agreement and use every tool in Canada’s diplomatic arsenal to end Israel’s impunity.

But no amount of pressure can get them to build a hundred feet of solar cells.

A windmill just facing the hot air spewing off Parliament Hill could power Ontario.

Hey #HamOnt - did you know that there are proposals to build AI data centres in our city?

Here’s everything I’ve been able to find out so far.

The upshot: our zoning by-laws are way out of date, and we need to push back against these projects!

Mr. Carney has served many years as an expert in and senior representative of international finance capital, of which the oil industry remains a key component in Canada. While neither an expert nor a deep thinker, Ms. Smith has been a lobbyist for the oil industry and an effective public proponent of its preferred policies throughout her career as a journalist and politician.

Of course they weren’t going to have all that much trouble finding ways to grant the Canadian oilpatch its wish for a pipeline to the West Coast, preferably completely paid for by taxpayers, plus slow-walked carbon taxes and big subsidies for the carbon-capture boondoggle to build social license for the pipeline.

They may have their differences, but they are flying in formation when it comes to the oil industry.

Is it possible that the biggest winner in this deal of the century could turn out to be … Avi Lewis?
