This, while one ethanol plant in Canada is shutting down, and at least one more is likely to follow. And meanwhile US ethanol plants are expanding and new greenfield plants are being planned with Canada as a key market. 2/2 www.mylloydminsternow.com/84102/news/e...

This is one of the more puzzling aspects of Carney's 'Build Canada Strong' plan: the absence of a plan to bring clean fuels jobs back to Canada. "Rising Canadian demand could increasingly support production and investment south of the border" 1/2 .. www.syngenta.ca/market-news/...

Canadian farm and renewable fuel groups are pressing Ottawa to change the Clean Fuel Regulations (CFR) by year-end, arguing U.S. ethanol is gaining an unfair advantage in the Canadian market.

Ya they wouldn't have won the seat anyhow. But as a matter of principle you want everyone to have the option of voting for you, especially if it was your decision to call the election.

My road map for the PCs, should they choose to follow it: 1. Select a pragmatic leader and good communicator 2. Purge anybody who tries to put social conservative crap on the agenda 3. Focus on health care and spending/fiscal issues 4. Be patient and don't get drawn into name calling etc.

Some people will cheer the struggles of the PCs, but every democracy needs a viable opposition. What we need are the PCs to get their act together and provide one. 1/2

I grew these peppers because I thought it would be fun to grow peppers but I don't typically eat peppers. What should I do with them? I would call them a 4 or 5 out of 10 on the spicy meter.

Virtually every net zero plan between the Atlantic and the Pacific is in the same boat. Plant a few trees, create a few incentives. Don't do anything innovative or politically challenging. This is why we are doomed to suffer continually rising global temps and increasingly sever weather.

It's always fascinating to watch Dan try to be critical of the NDP government. "Detailed" and "comprehensive" but "shallow" "There’s nothing bad about Manitoba’s new net zero action plan." But .. Ya. Anyhow, he does make some good points including the lack of initiative on transit. Worth reading.

Most are not, no, which is why I almost always say cottage. But I stayed once in a small 1 1/2 room cabin that a hunter built that definitely was not a 'cottage' :)

This Osborne Street safety study is going to fail because it is looking for "low-cost improvements that can be installed quickly" when a proper (but not necessarily cheap) long term solution is needed www.winnipegfreepress.com/breakingnews...
