To limit global heating to 1.5 C, Canada must end oil and gas production by 2034, says report
“The maths are clear: for a 50-50 chance of not exceeding 1.5 C, the carbon budget equates to 10 years of current emissions,” write University of Manchester energy and climate scientists Dan Calverley and Kevin Anderson in the report.

School bus at Pastor Artur’s church catches fire
A school bus belonging to a daycare parked behind Pastor Artur Pawlowski’s church caught fire today. Pawlowski’s church, the Cave of Adullam, shares the Calgary building with a daycare which has no affiliation with Pastor Artur and his church.
The Russia/Bermuda Dark Money Subterfuge
If there is one thing you can say about the Russians it is that they stick to their proven playbook no matter what carnage they inflict on the innocents or how greatly they deceive the gullible.
During the height of the Cold War, they sought to stop America’s introduction of sophisticated weapons that would have blunted any planned invasion of Western Europe by the Red Army by infiltrating the “peace movement” with money and resources.
So it should come as no surprise that members of Congress continue to express deep concern that Putin’s Russia may be preventing the West’s energy independence by promoting through third parties, who may be unwilling dupes or active co-conspirators, “green” alternatives that are either impractical, aspirational, or an outright fiction.
Trudeau and the NDP plan to reward allies in predatory public service unions with 10 days paid sick leave
Liberal-NDP deal includes a push for 10 days of paid sick leave for federal workers
OTTAWA – The Liberal Party of Canada and the federal New Democratic Party signed an agreement to keep Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in power until 2025 in exchange for moving forward on a series of policies.
The “confidence and supply deal” would secure the NDP’s support for major legislation, such as budget bills and confidence votes, necessary for the minority Liberal government to stay in power until the next election in three years.
Inflation Mostly a Made-in-Canada Problem, Finance Committee Hears
The high inflation bout affecting Canadians is not transitory nor mostly tied to a global phenomena, two economics experts told the House finance committee on March 21, but it is instead the product of domestic monetary and fiscal policies.
“Inflation is indeed a global problem, but our inflation problem is very much made at home here in Canada,” testified Vivek Dehejia, associate professor of economics and philosophy at Carleton University.
Trudeau and NDP form parasitic socialist union
Deal in the works between Liberals and NDP that would keep Justin Trudeau’s government in power in exchange for NDP-friendly measures
A deal is in the works between the federal Liberals and New Democrats that could see Justin Trudeau’s minority government safely staying in power for the next few years — in exchange for NDP-friendly measures in the coming budgets.
News of the potential deal leaked after Trudeau informed his Liberal MPs on Monday night. Sources are saying that Liberals have committed to a dental care program and “real progress” on a national pharmacare program, as the NDP has long demanded.
If the Liberal-NDP deal goes ahead, and sources were saying negotiations were still going on late into Monday night, Canada would be spared a federal election until 2025.
Canadians cutting back spending as inflation keeps skyrocketing: poll
According to the poll, the majority of Canadians think the cost of living will continue to go up. It also showed that 86% of respondents say they believe inflation will increase, while 84% expect gas prices to rise.
Canada to slap new sanctions on Russia soon as Ukraine war continues, Joly says
She says more economic sanctions are forthcoming against Russian nationals and Russian companies in an effort to further isolate the country.
It Is Not Enough To End Vaccine Mandates, They Must Be Banned
Many Canadians are happy to see provincial governments, and now even the federal government ending COVID-19 restrictions, mask mandates, and worst of all, COVID-19 vaccine mandates for certain occupations and activities, but is that really enough?
The fact that the government had the capability to mandate vaccines that did not stop the spread of the virus they were meant to fight is quite troubling. In some provinces like Ontario, they have still not scrapped the digital infrastructure for the mandates, making it so that businesses can still continue discriminating against customers based on vaccine status.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford is tacitly endorsing discrimination, and even if you think businesses should be allowed to deny service to whomever they please (which is a fair argument), it is undeniable that nobody would care about vaccine status if the government did not tell them to care.
Suspect charged in downtown Ottawa arson last month not connected with ‘Freedom Convoy’: police
Ottawa police say one man has been arrested and charged in connection with an arson at a Centretown apartment building last month, but there is no apparent link between him and the ‘Freedom Convoy’ protest that was ongoing at the time.
The incident happened at a building on Lisgar Street on Feb. 6, in the heart of the protest zone. Residents of the building told CTV News Ottawa that they found fire starter bricks in the lobby and the front doors had been forced closed and sealed with tape. A passerby noticed the flames and was able to open the door and put out the fire before anyone was hurt.
Canadian Energy Official To Biden: Why Look To Venezuela, Saudi Arabia For Oil? ‘We’re Right Next Door!’
“The Biden administration has flirted with lifting oil sanctions on once-shunned Venezuela to temper surging oil prices, yet it appears unwilling to encourage investment in domestic energy production,” Fox News reported.
Meanwhile, Biden’s advisers “are discussing a possible visit to Saudi Arabia this spring to help repair relations and convince the Kingdom to pump more oil,” Axios reported.
But one Canadian energy official last week expressed frustration with the Biden administration for not just turning to its neighbor to the north, which is among the world’s top oil producers.
The war in Ukraine could force Canada to shed its self-image as a peacekeeper
Over the past three decades or more, Canada has suffered from a deep identity crisis whenever it has been confronted with the messy, brutal foreign wars raging in far-flung parts of this troubled globe.
The overwhelming brutality of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has forced the Liberal government in recent weeks to confront some thorny questions. What does a peacekeeping nation do when there’s no peace to keep?
And what do you do when faced with a nuclear-armed adversary whose default reflex is to wage war?

Canadian Inflation Continues to Surprise Bank of Canada Forecasts, Merits Faster Tightening
Canadian inflation continues to surpass the Bank of Canada’s expectations and that likely amplifies the risk of a 50bps or larger hike at the April meeting. Momentum and breadth are both very high with further pressure ahead as Canadian monetary policy is far behind the curve.
NATO head urges Canada, other allies to do more on defence commitments
Canada has not spent more than 2% of its GDP on defence in decades
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg says he appreciates Canada’s commitments so far, but expects all allies “to do more” and follow up on pledges to spend at least two per cent of gross domestic product on defence.
Stoltenberg stopped short of explicitly asking for Canada to hit that mark in its upcoming federal budget, referring instead to previous NATO agreements dating back to 2014 that commit allies to increase spending and focus on a GDP target of two per cent.
