Congratulations to the people of Ontario for voting out the worst government in Canadian history.

Kinder Morgan wanted to invest billions into the Canadian economy. They wanted to spend private sector cash to upgrade a pipeline that will help Canada ship oil to new markets in Asia. Right now, Canada only has one client: the United States, and therefore, we can only sell at the price they determine.  

The fight against a national carbon tax is the policy fight of our lifetime. Every taxpayer in the country, and especially every conservative who believes in the principle of limited government, should do everything they can to stop this devastating tax grab.

The Trudeau government is spending $280,000 to study why Canada’s oil and gas sector is falling behind. Folks online were quick to propose a better way to answer this question: someone hand Justin Trudeau a mirror! (Who are we kidding, it’s Justin Trudeau, he probably owns thousands of mirrors).

The silent majority of Canadians were represented on Tuesday, in a large rally in support of Canada’s natural resource sector. Thousands gathered in Calgary to show their support for Western Canadian industry, and to urge the continuation of Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountain pipeline.

The University of Alberta has decided to grant an honorary doctorate to the infamous David Suzuki, the charlatan who has long advocated for Alberta’s hydrocarbon industry to be shut down.

Speaking at the New York University graduation ceremony at Yankee Stadium, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau talked a big game about political leadership. He told students to reject identity politics, tribalism and ideology, and to embrace people with differing views and opinions.
