Draisaitl is questionable tonight and Carney practises. Coincidence? Maybe not.

Mark Carney will maintain Oil and Gas production caps. This man certainly likes to say one thing and do another. Also pretty much plays for the Edmonton Oilers!

The media has painted Carney and the liberals as "team Canada" even though they are the ones that have caused all the issues in Canada, Trudeau has been dividing Canadians for 9yrs. Trudeau did not write any of words he said on the way out, and it was comical to see him attempt to show any pride for the "post national state" he actively destroyed for 9yrs, he is a great actor and a horrible human.

I haven't seen Carney show any strength, he has mostly hidden from the public and has resorted to approved media only situations. The premiers have had to resort to dealing with Trump on their own even though trade is a federal jurisdiction. Carney has hilariously adopted the PP conservatives taking points as his own without the media calling him out on it. He did not kill the carbon tax, he just put it on hold, and he will be replacing it with something even more taxing to Canadians, he is extremely pro-carbon tax and we will all suffer greatly under Carney.

Carneys purpose is to keep the money flowing to his green investors, the liberal media and all the other corrupt liberal recipients of tax payer money. The liberals are corrupt to the core, they need to be completely rebuilt from the ground up and I don't see that happening under Carney. It is sad to see people who watch too much mainstream media give Carney such high praise when he hasn't earned any of it. What a sad country Canada has become.

There goes one of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live and too rare to die.

And, uh the last two make me think you didn't read my post.

Yes, I added to my post.

I did read your post, but focused on what I considered the fastest way to jump start our economy, which I consider the most important thing to do, especially considering our present situation with the looming tariffs.

Oil and gas is our trump card (pun intended). The tier one plays in the Permian are coming to an end, and it won't be too long before the US needs more of our oil and gas.

It is my belief that Alberta will be one of the driving forces for the Canadian economy while Trump is in power. This is providing the Federal Government sees fit to support the province.

If he was a real politician he should cancel the GST for the rest of the year.

Almost! But another lie.

They’ll maintain emissions caps in a cap and trade system, which based on a PBO report, will not only not-hinder production, but will lead to record production highs.

So close though. You almost got all of the two words right.

Putin wanted Trump back in the WH, so he "endorsed" Harris to hurt her chances of winning.

I mean yeah, it’s just so blatantly obvious. And Maple MAGA here knows it. They are just as childish as dear leader.

Pierre Poilievre will 100% cut a deal with Trump where we keep our name and anthem but become the 51st state. The evidence is overwhelming. So if that's your wish just move down there and get it over with.

You are crazy man. The conservatives don't side with Trump, nobody does.

That will help and is a good move. But with the tariffs, potential job loss, inflation and possible recession, I see the real estate market and house prices in Ontario continue in a downward direction.

Of course they do and you know it. Thank God you won't have to face the reality of that because they are going to handily lose.

Listen, we all understand the terrible point you're trying to make. Your point is an opinion and a bad one. Putin's involvement in the US election is not the same as Trump's involvement in the Canadian election. Its not the same no matter how much you want it to be. I get that it fits your narrative and I have no issue with you believing whatever you want to.

Of course it’s the same. Silly attempts at gaslighting isn’t going to work for you here.

This is taken right from the article. Is this the production highs you are referring to?

The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers — which represents companies responsible for three-quarters of Canada’s annual oil and natural gas production — said the proposed changes would deter investment and undermine employment in the sector.

This week, a group of top energy executives called on the leaders of the four main federal political parties to declare a Canadian energy crisis and scrap the emissions cap.

In November, they introduced draft regulations — two years behind schedule — that require producers to cut emissions by about one-third over the next eight years, and said that the regulations did not place a cap on production.

The federal government also proposed a cap-and-trade system where each company would be given an emissions allowance equating to one unit per tonne of carbon pollution. Companies that pollute less would be able to sell their leftover allowance units for profit, while companies that don’t reduce their emissions enough would have to buy allowance units from other companies to stay in compliance.

“We want that energy. What we don’t want is that pollution,” Duguid said in an interview with The Canadian Press.

The Liberals have said repeatedly they aren’t capping production, just the emissions that come from it - a bid to force companies to invest in technology to produce the fuels more cleanly. But industry leaders and conservative politicians insist the targets are too stringent and can’t be met without capping production.
