As with Musk doing foreign policy and everything else, this is the privatization of public power, which is always followed by the privatization of public money into the same hands. We saw this in Russia and it's how to replace a democracy with oligarchy.

@CanPoli403 1) Don't underestimate the Trump administration's willingness to subsidize refineries so they can process more light American crude. 2) The pain would be felt disproportionately in Alberta. And the message needs to be heard most urgently there.

A lot of buzz in Toronto Country because a certain Taylor is coming to town. Yet, another certain Taylor is leaving for an Indigenous Literary festival in Quebec City and there seems to be a lot less publicity about it. Hmmm... It's cause I'm Indigenous, isn't it?

If an MP refuses to speak to their own bill at committee, then the committee should vote it down and kill it, no matter its merits. This kind of thing wastes everyone’s time and there needs to be consequences.
