Alberta Premier Danielle Smith holds a news conference in Calgary to discuss the establishment of a new working group between the provincial government and Enbridge with the aim moving more Alberta oil and gas across Canada and to the United States. She is joined by Enbridge CEO Greg Ebel. Working with Enbridge to develop opportunities to expand the company’s footprint and increase global market access is aligned with the Alberta government’s goal of doubling oil and gas production.

Responding to questions from reporters, Smith comments on Justin Trudeau’s announcement that he intends to step down as prime minister and federal Liberal leader. Premier Smith also discusses the need for a concerted approach to respond to U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s threat to impose a 25 per cent tariff on all imports from Canada.

Thank God there is one judge following law & common sense than to take someone’s livelihood away from them, rather than following ideological crap!

β€œOn the contrary, the evidence suggests that Big Red will continue to be used for its legitimate and intended commercial purposes as a work truck in the future, much the same way as it has been used since its purchase ...

How bloody true….

An Obituary printed in the London Times.....Absolutely Dead Brilliant!!t

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years.
No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long
ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:

  • Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
  • Why the early bird gets the worm;
  • Life isn't always fair;
  • And maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend
more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).

His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing
regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents ...
