EV bullshit , fact checking

[furrowtickler]

Like Jazz, I also heard from an oil exec that the keystone XL pipeline would bring riches to Alberta, it would make electric vehicles be taken back to the horse age. That oil would be THE resource. No point getting anything electric, our future in oil is now.

Now imagine if Kenny would have spent 1.3 billion + loan guarantees on rechargeable infrastructure - or frankly anything else? Oh right, tax payer subsidies on oil and lost causes are just fine with low IQ Agriville.

Imagine if the PM did not waste multi billions the past 6 years throwing away tax payer money all over the world on pet projects and virtue signalling...
talk about low IQ ... the ones running this country are all guilty . Not those of us here , your just being simply ignorant...
go buy a farm , all the equipment, bins , pay all the tax , get all the insurance needed and go farming ... it’s so easy .. with your high IQ it should be super easy ..
or just come back here time to time and be condescending to those who actually make agriculture work ... without those of us left there would be no ag industry period ... yes us , the actual wide range of grain and livestock producers on Agriville .

Ya, but you keep posting you can't make it work. It's doomed. Only loosing money, blah blah blah. Maybe the IQ fits. I own a farm - doesn't mean i have to farm - duh.

This project is specific because you are fine with subsidizing oil (and losing it all) with tax payer money no problem, but when it comes to renewables - nothing. What kind of IQ is that?

Can’t make it work ? Loosing money ?
Never stated I support oil subsidies
Your throwing assumptions around like others do here
Kinda sad actually.
Farming is real , not easy . Being a critical by stander is easy though .
Have a good weekend

Well oil is Canadas most valuable export and its highest marginal economic activity and it and its spin offs employ the largest number of people compared to any other industry in this country. Even all the subsidized exported hydro out of BC, Quebec, Ontario and MB cant touch it.

It funds most of the equalization transfers which then go to support basic programs in our lazy provinces and it raises the per capita income of every Canadian by almost $20k.

So I am all ears how our new green economy is going to replace all that. Is Quebec hydro going to reverse fund equalization? Bet they separate before a single penny every leaves that place.

"lazy provinces" LOL just because Alberta was lucky enough to be sitting on a bunch of oil and gas because they won the geology lottery doesn't mean they work harder than other Canadians!
You gotta love people who got rich because of oil, thinking of themselves as harder working and smarter than everyone else! What a simpleton you are Jazz

GDP in Canada by Industry

Something is severely wrong when real estate is #1 for gdp. Is China buying up this country.

[TASFarms]

Oil would be #1 if it weren’t for the Trudeau’s.

How is social assistance gdp?

[fjlip]

About same as % of population, Farmers only 2-3%, now I feel insignificant!
If the other 97% of GDP sectors couldn't eat or had to hunt/grow their own....

BC is one of the most popular places in the world for asian money laundering.
42% of Vancouver residential sits empty owned by non resident investors.
Hide your money and drive the price up due to housing shortage because all sitting empty.
Thats all OK but no dirty oil.

wonder why this isn't on the news 24/7 ?

Our trusted friends at SNC just came out with a study that says we need 3x the power production by 2050 and Hydro or Nuclear are the only reliable choices.
Equivalent to 113 site C Hydro projects.
That's a lot of $1.72 a day.

Power grid upgrades will be required for this game of luxury car virtue signalling.

How is social assistance gdp?

Health care and saftey nets for those who can't take care of themselves.

Imagine the economic impact of poor health care if people who are sick can't get treatment? When sick people can't work, don't pay taxes or spend much money and can't make much a contribution, this would have a negative impact on the economy.

What happens to a farm when the person who does most of the management and work gets sick and nobody else can easily step into replace them? Imagine if this happens a lot in a country with poor health care. Good healthcare is important for a strong economy.
