The Conservative Party of Canada leader roasted Prime Minister Trudeau over his infamous teaching scandal, where the former high school teacher left in the middle of the semester for unclear reasons.
Trudeau proudly confirmed that he was a high school teacher before he entered politics, and said he couldn’t remember what Poilievre did before politics — a dig at the Conservative leader for being a lifelong politician.
Poilievre responded, “Yes and he left right in the middle of the semester and I’m having trouble remembering why.”

Read MoreThis essay provides a rough estimate of the environmental benefits associated with
imposing the GHG cap on the oil and gas industry. We show that eliminating all GHG
emissions from the oil and gas sector in 2030 would reduce Canada’s projected GHG
emissions by 29 percent. This is not a trivial number, as an absolute value, even for a
single sector of Canada’s emitting industries.
However, when seen in a global context, even if Canada eliminated all of its GHG
emissions expected in the year 2030 as a result of the new greenhouse gas caps implemented by the current government (187 Mt), the emission reduction would equal fourtenths of one percent of global emissions, a reduction unlikely to have any impact on
the trajectory of the climate in any detectable manner, and hence, to offer only equally
undetectable environmental, health, or safety benefits

Driving the news: It’s called Colombier Acquisition Corp., and earlier this year agreed to merge with PublicSq, an online marketplace for companies in what it calls “the patriot economy.”

The frustrated driver can be heard pleading with the eco-clowns before he loses his patience and tells them: ‘I will run you over’.
In chaotic scenes, the protesters can be seen trying to thwart his attempts to move them out the way but he presses on, managing to part the crowd before driving off.
Just Stop Oil supporters took up positions on London’s bridges on Tuesday afternoon, bringing traffic to a standstill during rush-hour.

Target has been the focus of boycott calls due to offering Pride products this year aimed at children. Target’s 2022 ESG report (pdf) shows that at least 51 percent of its suppliers are “owned, controlled and operated by women, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, veterans or people with disabilities.” In addition, 59 percent of their Pride Month assortment was created by LGBT creators and brands.
