    It's Climate Change I tell'ya!! IT'S CLIMATE CHANGE!!

    Our per Capita emissions are among the highest in the world. But if emissions per square kilometres are used as the metric — a calculation the United Nations has done in the past — Canada becomes one of the world’s lowest emitters, illustrating that with statistics, what you get depends on what...

    Well, today is the Liberal/NDP Non-Coalition Coalition Budget Day!

    It’s politics of division, and he’s reminding one of his references to “flat earthers” or “anti-vaxxer mobs” — or people who are racist, misogynists or against science. This time, Trudeau said in an era where “the richest are only getting richer, I think it’s fair to ask those people to pay a...

    Switzerland wins 68th Eurovision Song Contest

    Oh hardly. It was funny. You should really give it a watch above. It’s one of the anchors from Australia for sky news.

    Switzerland wins 68th Eurovision Song Contest

    Is the Eurovision Song Contest the most insightful window into western society and politics we currently have? As usual, the 2024 show delivered a memorable night of the fun, the bizarre and the weird. It was also highly politically charged as contestants voiced their opposition and...
