For every step forward that the Carney government takes regarding energy policy they seem to take two steps back by subsidizing bird choppers.
The federal government is committing $100-million toward development of a Nova Scotia offshore wind energy project with the potential to power homes and businesses in Quebec, Ontario and New England.

“Republicans will be hunted”
Scott Adams got it right.
Ex-special counsel Jack Smith obtained personal information on 639,000 Republican donors, voters and supporters — including some who contributed as little as $1 or bought “red MAGA hats” — according to subpoena returns obtained by a Senate Republican committee.
In a Wednesday memo, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) disclosed the details of data Smith’s office received, denouncing the former prosecutor of President Trump for “abuse of authority.”
More than 148,000 rows on spreadsheets contained the findings, including donors from 2005 to 2021.
Dates of birth, home addresses, email addresses, Republican party registration, information about credit cards or employment history were also hoovered up. […]
“The new findings further corroborate that Smith and his partisan team aimed to map out the entire Republican Party apparatus,” he added.
That included names of Republican campaign aides and volunteers, as well as party donors who contributed anywhere between $1 and $1,000. Information on red Make America Great Again hats was also shared, including the buyers’ names and home addresses.
There’s more: The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency reviewed 100,000 complaints and found the nine largest national banks it supervises had policies that factored in customers’ political, religious or business activities […] JPMorgan-owned WePay closed accounts of merchants selling MAGA and Trump merchandise.

A Challenging Collapse
I seem to recall that the housing bust of 2008 lasted a lot longer than a couple of months. The company I used to work for once offered farm machinery financing at 3 to 4 percent interest. Now it’s over 7 percent. That’s got to be causing someone to say “I’ll wait”.
“The housing market was not in a robust place to start off with. And then with mortgage rates moving up the way they have, I think we’re going to see a challenging couple months ahead,” Hale told Yahoo Finance.
Mortgage rates rose sharply in September, starting the month well below 7% and ending around 7.5%.

Officers arrived at the intersection of Ninth Avenue and Pinkie Road, finding the vehicles that appeared to be involved in a head-on collision.
Four people in total were there, with a driver and passenger in each vehicle. They all remained at the scene and were later transported to hospital for what seemed to be serious, but non-life-threatening injuries.
In a Thursday news release, police say both vehicles involved sustained “significant” damage.
Police say SGI notified them several months later, noting the collision may have been intentionally staged.
That prompted an investigation involving the SGI Special Investigators Unit, members from RPS’s Investigative Collision Analysis Reconstruction Team, and Forensic Identification Unit and Technological Crime Unit.
The investigation determined the collision had been deliberately staged.
As a result, 23-year-old Sukhveer Kaur, 24-year-old Akashdeep Singh and 26-year-old Gagandeep Singh have all been charged with fraud over $5,000.

Forget the US, at this point even a Russian invasion sounds pretty good.
As almost 300 mostly unidentified Canadians attend a trade mission in Mumbai, the High Commissioner of India to Canada predicts that this country will need 15 million immigrants to meet the workforce needs of a growing economy in the next 10 years.
“This is a new Canada and we are anticipating that things will happen fast. And Prime Minister (Mark) Carney, given his background as the governor of two banks, Bank of Canada, Bank of England, as well as Brookfield, his experience with investment with the economy, there is a lot of trust that he will be able to deliver on a lot of the things,” Dinesh Patnaik said in an interview on CPAC.
New country, incoming: PM Carney says in an interview with New York Times that his government will resume growing the population through mass immigration because that is “the nature of Canada”.
