The JAS 39 Gripen Has A Message for Canada and the F-35 Fighter Canada’s F-35 drama isn’t over: a switch to Sweden’s Gripen could save flying costs but sacrifice stealth, combat edge and Canadian aerospace jobs.

In the case of a mother of two children under 18 only earning $20k, it is likely she would benefit from filling her taxes.

However, unless you have children, and if you earn $10k or $20k more you will most likely be paying more in taxes than getting back in benefits.

Sure - but, understand that most will be paying more taxes than receiving back in benefits.

Rather than enforcing taxes on the poorest segment of society, perhaps do something that actually makes a difference in their lives.

Look up the total taxes paid if earning $20k, $30k, $40k annually.

Canadian defence procurement has been rigged to favour US suppliers for ages, how else will these guys get their high paying jobs in US defence firms when they retire?

The shift to EVs is happening—fast. Manufacturers can either embrace the long-term transition or chase short-term gains by clinging to petrol and diesel.

China is choosing the long view. Many in Europe aren’t. The risk? Ending up with cars no one wants, lost market share, and shuttered factories.

Carney now to enforce taxation of the poor - rather than taxing the wealthy their fair share.

Instead of enforcing taxing the poor - why don’t you tax the wealthy.

Fckn neoliberal.

For the ultra wealthy to exist, there needs to be the ultra poor.

This is by design from our captured governments.

Beyond public ownership: Time for ecosocialism Ecosocialism is about sustainability in decision making both for the economy and the environment.

“It’s exciting to hear an emerging consensus around public ownership. I think it’s a popular idea in a time of market failure. And I think that the Liberals and Conservatives, the only idea they have to stimulate the economy is to give public money to private interests.”

Carney subsidizes oil corporations while simultaneously calling the Enhanced Oil Recovery tax credit a win for the climate.

An outright lie and indicative of the now very right leaning federal liberals politics.

NB Liquor’s AI ad has local creative industry calling it ‘lazy’ and ‘an insult’ - New Brunswick | Globalnews.ca The minister responsible for NB Liquor said he asked them to 'pause' the use of the video as a paid advertisement so they can have a conversation about AI.

NB Liquor choose NOT to hire Canadians or New Brunswickers for their Xmas ad - rather they choose to pay a U.S. corporation to make an AI ad with U.S. values & imagery.

I ordered a bunch of books on sale last month.

It seems to me like a good price on new hardcover books.

Here in Saint John, N.B., Value Village sells well used hardcovers for approx. $7 bucks.
