Electricity demand, natural gas production and renewable power expected to soar by 2050

Electricity demand is set to boom in Canada by 2050, according to new modelling from the national energy regulator released on Tuesday.

The projections also foresee robust growth in natural gas production and expansion of renewable power in the country.

The latest modelling from the Canada Energy Regulator (CER) focuses on an expected spike in power demand from coast to coast as consumption grows 44 per cent from 2023 to 2050.

Furious US troops erupt at CNN’s $20m steak and lobster claims as grim photos expose reality

Furious US troops have hit back at CNN’s claim that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth blew $20 million of taxpayer dollars on steak and lobster dinners.

Service members sent the Daily Mail exclusive photos of their dinner plates — petite lobster tails and grey ribeye served cafeteria-style on trays — in the months before military action in Iran.

The backlash comes after a heated on-air clash where CNN commentator Paul Begala suggested Hegseth was hoarding the luxury supplies for himself rather than feeding the troops working grueling late-night shifts.

OLDCORN: Canadian Anti-Hate Network founder on Ottawa’s ‘online safety panel’ is the wrong call

Anti-Zionism will receive a shot in the arm.

Ottawa has reconvened its Expert Advisory Group on Online Safety, and one name is a cause for concern, Bernie Farber. The announcement from Canadian Heritage says Farber, founding chair emeritus of the Canadian Anti-Hate Network (CAHN), will again help guide federal policy on “online harms.”

The same release also says the panel’s 2022 advice helped shape Bill C-63, the Online Harms Act, which later died in January 2025. That alone should have set off alarm bells in Ottawa.

Mamdani Celebrates St. Patricks Day Exactly How You’d Expect

The mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, spent St. Patrick’s Day morning talking about the supposed Palestinian genocide, as he hosted Ireland’s former President Mary Robinson for breakfast just days after a reporter stumped him with a question about the Irish liberation movement.

Some had fun …

Official Ireland is embarrassed by St Patrick’s day

As the crowds thronged Main Street, a drunken brawl erupted, prompting a shocked TV newsreader to declare: ‘What you are seeing is a total disregard for the things St Patrick stood for. All this drinking, violence and destruction of property. Are these the things we think of when we think of the Irish?’

At the time, that episode was far more controversial with Irish Americans than people who actually lived in Ireland, who thought it was hilarious. But that was then and this is now – and the modern Irish tend to take themselves far more seriously.

Pornographic LGBT ‘art’ displayed publicly after winning Canada’s top award

A Canadian art gallery is warning those who enter to be aware of an LGBT pornographic art piece on display because the Governor General gave it the nation’s top award.

Located in Regina, Saskatchewan, the MacKenzie Art Gallery is hosting Bruce LaBruce’s work, which is about as family unfriendly as possible. It shows large photos showcasing graphic gay sex acts, naked bodies of so-called transgender people, and full-on exposure of genitals.


So much of “Art” in Canada seems to involve deviants doling out tax dollars to their deviant friends.

‘Another internet is possible’: Norway rails against ‘enshittification’

The video’s opening shot shows a man hiding under a bed snipping in a hole in someone’s sock. Seconds later, the same man uses a saw to shorten a table leg so that it wobbles during breakfast. “My job is to make things shitty,” the man explains. “The official title is enshittificator. What I do is I take things that are perfectly fine and I make them worse.”

The video, released recently by the Norwegian Consumer Council, is an absurdist take on a serious issue; it is part of a wider, global campaign aimed at fighting back against the “enshittification”, or gradual deterioration, of digital products and services.

‘Mean tweets’ video of Avi Lewis has Alberta New Democrat calling for apology

OTTAWA — Former Alberta NDP environment minister Shannon Phillips wants an apology from NDP leadership frontrunner Avi Lewis, after a years-old video re-emerged of Lewis and wife Naomi Klein laughing over Phillips losing her cabinet post.

The video, which has been on YouTube since September 2020, shows the two reacting to “mean tweets” about their Leap Manifesto, a sweeping attempt to shut down fossil fuel use and impose extensive income retribution that they had tried unsuccessfully to force through as official NDP policy at the party’s 2016 convention in Edmonton.

One of these lunatics will likely be NDP leader, they’ll pretend it’s the one wearing pants.
