    Russia Invades Ukraine

    My reading (eyesight) is not great but I think I got the basics. The challenge with most Western Canadian oil is that it is very viscous (crude). Our bottleneck, to get it into pipelines, trains or truck transport lies in upgrading. Refineries take the upgraded product and creates bitumen...

    Russia Invades Ukraine

    Canada has the third largest oil reserves in the world... and we are importing? Makes no sense unless Trudeau figures Alberta, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland oil is unethical?

    Russia Invades Ukraine

    You may be proven correct. Russia is very reliant on natural resources for export. That is going to concern eastern and western Europe in particular. China has capitalized on rare earth elements but equally on discretionary items to the west. The latter is going to be in play. My opinion only.

    Russia Invades Ukraine

    I think that China prematurely had the hand lotion and kleenex handy but they are re-examining the porn they thought they were watching. Still might not be enough to dissuade but...

    Russia Invades Ukraine

    for context, the Ukraine has the largest amount of Ukraine citizens, Russia has the second most and Canada is third with approximately 1.3M citizens. The latter surprised me. Alberta and Saskatchewan have very large immigrant populations. Great people that contribute to Canada.

    Russia Invades Ukraine

    Loss of life period. Bull$hit move by Putin but it sounds like there is a lot of collateral damage in unwilling, unparticipating Russians. My prayers are with the Ukraine and the innocent.

    When you finally piss off Switzerland you have to realize you are on the wrong side of history.

    Bingo!! Apart from IE, I don't have any other accounts and have never had any social media accounts. My privacy in important and like you said, my life isn't that interesting or unique. The one thing that bother me (Grinds My Gears?) is that I am largely unable to read Twitter posts from...

    Putting a Dog Down

    Knowing when to put your dog down is both the most difficult and responsible decision you can make as an owner and friend. I had to put my 15-3/4 year old chocolate lab down in late August of last year. During my life, I've had to put down 7 dogs but this one was the most difficult. I'm not...

    [NFL] Super Bowl LVI

    I think we are getting into some space/time continuum stuff here... or maybe the butterfly effect. So, if correct, I think you may be overthinking some of the events and how they may or may not have effected the outcome. In my opinion, there were two major flaws made by the refs, (1) the Tee...

    [NFL] Super Bowl LVI

    It was but if you go back to the Tee Higgins TD "non-call", I think they offset.

    [NFL] Super Bowl LVI

    True that. Before seeing the replay I thought he just tripped. Hate to see that kind of blown call in the Super Bowl.

    Media Matters

    Many of us up here have been watching the "Freedom Convoy" with great interest. As I wrote before, I wasn't sure what they were trying to accomplish but I think things have evolved far beyond ending the vaccine mandate. I was sent this clip today and I honestly think it represents the situation...
