It’s all fun and games with these goofy electric vehicles until the next thing you know there’s no more toilet paper. Or medicine. Or food.
In its ongoing effort to destroy just about everything, the Biden administration is now cracking down on the trucking industry.
Let that sink in for a moment.
Former Newfoundland Premier Brian Peckford is the last living signatory to Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
CALGARY, ALBERTA: The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms is pleased to announce that on Thursday, April 13, 2023, lawyers for the Honourable Brian Peckford, the Honourable Maxime Bernier, and others, filed their written arguments in support of their appeal of the October 20, 2022 decision of the Federal Court that found their case was “moot”.

The ‘8 March principles,’ as they are called, lay out a human rights-based approach to laws criminalizng conduct in relation to sex, drug use, HIV, sexual and reproductive health, homelessness and poverty.

The back of ‘Ted’s’ truck, parked for the night near Thunder Bay, Ontario. 26 January 2022. Screen capture from a video shot by ‘Sally’
Last month, I told you about a Saskatoon couple I called Ted and Sally. He’s been a trucker for 40 years, and she’s been a trucker’s wife for nearly as long. They joined the Freedom Convoy in late January 2022 and, from day one, she streamed Facebook Live videos from the cab of their truck.
These videos allowed friends and family to ride along, to witness in real time the incredible enthusiasm with which ordinary Canadians responded to the Convoy. Today, they are an important, permanent record of what took place.
Read MoreA global network of over 1501 scientists and professionals has prepared this urgent message. Climate science should be less political, while climate policies should be more scientific. Scientists should openly address uncertainties and exaggerations in their predictions of global warming, while politicians should dispassionately count the real costs as well as the imagined benefits of their policy measures.
Read MoreFriday, April 21st is the deadline to submit your suggestion for the “Worst Road in the Province.”
The annual Canadian Automobile Association’s “Worst Roads” advocacy campaign is marking its 20th year of influencing change. For the past two decades, the campaign has given decision-makers a snapshot of the roads that the public perceives as not meeting their expectations.
“Our research tells us that 85 per cent of Ontarians are concerned about the state of our roads,” says Teresa Di Felice, assistant vice president of government and community relations, CAA SCO. “Due to inflation, consumers are being more mindful of their purchases, and people are opting to hold on to their cars for longer instead of buying a new one. Funding for roadway improvements and proper infrastructure needs to be consistent to ensure that quality and safety are maintained.”

A few minutes later, he says, the cops came to the door and told him he was facing a $50,000 fine. When he asked an officer if he had kids, the response was “What does that have to do with this? You broke the law, we have a limit, and you’ve passed it.”
A few moments later, after the officer admitted he was, indeed, a father, Mike explained: ‘I have a little six-year-old lying in the chapel, and the family needs to see him. They need to say goodbye.”
Read MoreA significant part of the regulatory history in the taxi industry is that the City has consistently
tightly controlled who can participate in the industry. Only licensed brokers, plate owners, and
licensed drivers could operate legally in the industry.
The City prohibited anyone else from doing so. For years, the City enforced the by-laws to stop
what it called, “bandit cabs,” and unlicensed brokers from operating. The City investigated these
unlawful operators, charged them, and ensured that the illegal taxi services were stopped. In
many instances, the City’s enforcement efforts were done in cooperation with members in the
taxi industry. Up until 2014, the City kept a tight grip on who could operate in the taxi industry
and made sure that any illegal activity was stopped.
