“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” ~~ John G. Diefenbaker

So once more, in Donald Trumps eyes, we’re pulling our weight. Trump changes his mind more times than Justin Trudeau changes his socks

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and President Donald
Trump at NATO meeting on December 3rd

MAKE OF IT WHAT YOU WILL ... however, today Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with United States of America President Donald Trump.

According to the Prime Ministers Office, Trudeau and Trump reaffirmed their support for the new North American Free Trade Agreement which supports millions of jobs in Canada, the US, and Mexico. The two leaders welcomed the work towards its ratification in all three countries.


  • I have to wonder what’s talking so long to have three people sign a document already agreed to?  It’s no wonder nothing ever gets done, or at least its painfully slow, when it comes to governments at all levels


The Prime Minister and President discussed the importance of the NATO Alliance for international peace and security as well as the indispensable Canada - US partnership for the defense of North America. The President noted Canada’s contributions to NATO missions including in Iraq, Latvia, and Romania.

  • Oh so once more, in Donald Trumps eyes, we’re pulling our weight.  Trump changes his mind more times than Justin Trudeau changes his socks.


The two leaders also discussed relations with China ... 


The President agreed with Canada’s position on the ongoing arbitrary detention of two Canadians in China and said Canada and the US would continue to work on this together.

The Prime Minister and President agreed to keep in touch and to strengthen their close cooperation.


  • I’ll keep close eyes on Donald Trumps Twitter account to see how well that continues as it seems to change from day to day – or is it hour by hour?
I don't know about you, but some how I just don't feel confident about the long-term outcomes of much when Trudeau and Trump meet. Do you think Justin has the authority and power to influence Trump?

No? Well I didn't think so either.

Interfor Moves Headquarters Out of BC as Forestry Crisis Continues

NDP policies are driving businesses out of B.C., and the forestry industry just suffered yet another calamity. Interfor, a BC company founded more than 60 years ago and now one of the world's largest lumber producers, is moving its headquarters from Burnaby, BC to Atlanta, Georgia. As BC’s forestry sector faces mill closures and mounting uncertainty, this move is another warning sign that the crisis is deepening and conditions are fatal. “This is the NDP’s record: endless job losses with no hope in sight for the forestry sector,” said Ward Stamer, Shadow Minister for Forestry. “Interfor still has three mills in BC which are now in serious jeopardy, and it is likely we will see even more companies pull out of BC. The NDP government is suffocating the forestry industry with high taxes, excessive regulations, and permitting delays, while DRIPA has made it impossible to plan for the future.” “Decisions like this are sadly not surprising given the NDP’s indifference if not hostility tow...

Okanagan Farmers Face NDP-Created Water Crisis ~~ BC Conservatives

Okanagan farmers are facing a water crisis as government-imposed restrictions threaten to kill their crops and destroy one of B.C.’s most important agricultural industries. In perhaps the most water-rich province in the country, our farmers have been left high and dry by the NDP government. For nine weeks, Okanagan and Shuswap farmers have proposed solutions, only to be met with NDP foot-dragging. Now forest fires have come to these regions as they are simultaneously reckoning with a water crisis that has been made worse through years of government inaction. Vernon-area farms have lost 70 percent of their water, while Kelowna and Summerland growers face severe restrictions. This situation is unacceptable and cannot continue. Ian Paton, Shadow Minister for Agriculture, said the NDP is once again forcing farmers to pay for its own failure to plan. "Farmers and ranchers must be listened to when decisions affecting their livelihoods are made, and under the NDP, they aren’t," said...

NDP Hypocritically Admits Natural Gas Power Was Needed All Along ~~ BC Conservatives

The NDP just got caught buying back the exact kind of power plant it spent years telling British Columbians they didn't need. The NDP government announced today that BC Hydro is purchasing the Island Generation natural gas facility in Campbell River, an admission that its electrification-only energy policy was never realistic. The 275-megawatt plant was originally privately owned yet kept to a minimal backup role under the NDP, operating just 15 days a year on average. Now, with demand outpacing what the NDP's plan can support, the government is spending taxpayer funds on the very gas capacity it once treated as obsolete. "You cannot electrify everything and pretend natural gas doesn't matter," said Larry Neufeld, Shadow Minister for Energy.  "Buying back a gas plant they once wrote off is proof their own plan couldn't keep the lights on. It's a step towards more energy reality, but the government needs to go further and scrap the impending province-w...
