> About 30% (of that 25% above) is oil & gas etc. That's easilly sellable on the global market. No, it's not. The bulk of Canada's oil sells at a discount (the WCS price), because most of it can only be bought by the U

We tried increasing immigration recently. Most of it went to Ontario and BC, who are incapable of building housing quickly or cheaply enough to accommodate even a modest increase in demand.

Did you forget about Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor? About China's complete dishonesty during trade negotiations, lying about the quality of or pork and canola oil and then pretending that never happened?

You can have a space in an email address. On a project I was working on at a company I was at in 2003, I had to fix our support for that a number of times because that's what one of our customers had.

I was still using my XT clone (with Hercules graphics) in 1990, mostly for WordPerfect and to play SimCity. I also remember getting simcga from a friend in 1991 and using that to play some 80s CGA games. Finally upgraded to a 386SX in 1992.

I had one of those Apple speakers (HomePod Mini) and the only other thing I ever did with it was speaker phone calls. It was really good that that. I ended up selling it for $50 or something.

What did the prepared mustard ever do to you? You're far, far more likely to get fatty liver disease from products sold by companies like Diageo and Bacardi.

I'd love to hear about the game ROM. This post is just focusing on a new, slight variant of the packaging, as if the game is a collectible like a stamp or coin.

I was expecting to read about a new variant of the game ROM itself. But, this just sounds like a new, slight variant of the packaging. It almost feels more like stamp or coin collecting, than video game collecting as I understand it.

Electric utilities are certainly building out infrastructure. It's needlessly costly and slow in a lot of places, but it's happening.

The conversion to all-electric homes is more recent, and hasn't even started in some places. Here in Canada, some jurisdictions require newly constructed houses and apartments to have electric heat and cooling (heat pump, with resistiv

There was never a Canada-wide US alcohol ban. In places like Ontario, which admittedly is the most populous province by far, the purchaser for the government-run liquor stores (LCBO) decided not to buy US alcohol, and the LCBO decided not t

This is off-topic, but I find it surprising that relatively small Stockholm is so high on the list.

Most of the tomatoes and cucumbers I buy here in Alberta year-round are greenhouse grown in-province. Our electric power here is basically natural gas with a bit of wind and hydro. Although to your point, we're probably one of the chea
