OTTAWA — More than 43,000 electric vehicle chargers have been funded over the last seven years under the federal government’s two main EV infrastructure programs.
But data supplied by the Department of Natural Resources shows fewer than one in five are actually operational.
The data comes as Energy Minister Jonathan Wilkinson is in Quebec City today making another funding announcement on EV chargers.
On the evening of Feb. 22, 2020, Satartia, a small town in Yazoo County, Mississippi, was enveloped in a fog of fetid gas following a loud boom. People collapsed, shaking and breathless, vehicles choked to a halt, and first responders were bewildered. It took four hours to bring the situation under control. Two hundred people were evacuated to safety; 49 had to be hospitalized. Three years later, respiratory problems still plague many residents.
The Ground Zero Mosque was something from another decade. All of New York City is becoming overrun with mosques. There’s even an official city guide to the best terror mosques to visit while in the city.

Calling a female civil servant a “clever woman” is not sexist, a tribunal has ruled.
Christine Rodgers tried to sue the Ministry of Defence (MoD) for sex discrimination after a senior Army officer made the comment.
Lieutenant Colonel Simon Watkins, the Commanding Officer at the MoD’s Defence School of Transport (DST), said Ms Rodgers was “a clever woman” but could be “manipulative”.
If you go down to the woods of central Europe today, you are in for a big surprise: radioactive pigs.
Scientists have found that wild boar in the forests of Germany and Austria are so radioactive that they are unsafe to eat and have discovered that this is not because of the Chernobyl disaster, as was previously assumed.

This is the moment a fugitive Venezuelan drug trafficker known as Taliban is dumped alive in the ocean with his hands zip-tied and an anchor around his waist in revenge for stealing 450 lbs of cocaine – and cash – from a cartel.
Reinaldo Fuentes is seen bound and gagged with blood stains on the back of his head before his killers struggle to heave him – and the anchor – over the side of a boat into the Caribbean Sea near Martinique.

Tom Mulcair: These conservative politicians claim they’re protecting kids, but they’re making victims of them
Saskatchewan is joining New Brunswick in an unseemly political manoeuvre, using the sensitive issue of gender identity to gain the support of certain voters at the expense of the fundamental right to equality.
If it were an oblique attack against people for who they are in terms of their religion or ethnicity, calling out that prejudice would be a slam dunk. Most segments of our society would denounce it. No serious politician would ever get close to it.
This is what Mulcair supports for your children.

For an administration that’s solely focused on “optics,” it’s pretty wretched stuff that the first words that came to mind when “Joe Biden” was said to a group of polling respondents were “outdated,” “senile,” and “dementia.”
That’s what the Associated Press found in its August survey, meaning the public has seen a bit more of Joe Biden than maybe his handlers would like.
Ewwwww!
