Updates On The March To The Great Green Energy Future
The cries of climate alarm get ever louder and more urgent. (E.g., New York Times, January 9, “It’s confirmed: 2023 was the planet’s warmest year on record and perhaps in the last 100,000 years. By far.”). We’re all about to boil! Something must be done!
OK, but then there is the proposed solution: Order up by government fiat that our current fully working and inexpensive energy system must be replaced with a never-demonstrated pipe dream conjured up by political science and gender studies majors who know nothing about how an energy system works. We’re far enough into this by now that some of the pieces are starting to blow up in dramatic fashion. Are we allowed to notice?
From Richmond to Ottawa: Indigenous Land Claims Threaten Private Property Rights Across Canada
The Continuing Perversity of Civil Asset Forfeiture
A Richmond, B.C. man who’s owned his home since 1975 claims he has just been told his mortgage will not be renewed — because the B.C. Supreme Court granted title of his land to the Cowichan Tribe.
