    Gordon Sonland pitching his book "The Envoy" and sneaking in a public plea to future presidents for Ambassadorship consideration. In this and other interviews, Gordo has claimed that he had no agenda when testifying against then President Donald Trump. For those of us on planet Earth, it was clear that his motive was to stay out of jail, particularly because he was caught lying on several occasions and had to repeatedly restate his recollections. Further, Sonland's sole reason for becoming an Ambassador was NOT to serve his country. It was to satisfy his own curiosity and ego, having stated that "others he knows who have held Ambassador positions said it was the most interesting thing they'd ever done" as the primary reason he took on the challenge. Geesh Gordo, it would have been better if you took on a role as zookeeper, an equally interesting position you could insert into the LinkedIn CV and humble-bragged to bored family/friends. Meanwhile the rest of the country and world would have been spared from your unqualified tenure. Let us not forget that this role was bestowed on him NOT for skill and acumen. He was appointed by Dildo Don after Gordo opened up his check book and wrote a fat check to Dear Leader. Unsurprisingly, much like other famous repentant Maga-morons, Gordo has had an awakening. He denounces the January 6th riots and refutes the concept that the 2020 election was stolen. He bristles with confidence and patriotism at this acknowledgement. The rest of us roll our eyes at him reminding us that the sky is blue and that water is wet. While I have not read "The Envoy" nor will I, I predict it to be as fun a read as a "Choose-Your-Adventure" book set in the DMV where the choices are already chosen by a half-deflated used-car lot's inflatable noodle. Without even reading this disaster, I award it a "FIve Gordos" rating and suggest this soggy diaper of a publication be retitled from "The Envoy" to "The Idiot." And in the meanwhile, Gordo, do everyone a favor and kick rocks.

    One thing you can do, make all interest paid on a house mortgage tax deductible, that would greatly increase the building of new houses. When I started started building my first house in Danmark in the 1960,s that was the rule there, and the housing industry was booming, do that here and you will se an uptick in the building of new houses, and that what we want and need.

    I know of imm8grants who have worked very hard to become licensed to legally work in their profession. Of course they have families whom they would love to share their homes with. Even if it means being crowded in a tiny living space. Meanwhile their are millions of Canadians crowded into "designated" tent cities across the country. Absolutely welcome immigrants doctors, nurses, skilled workers who can hands on construct homes. As a priority, create shelter, provide health care that includes both mental and physical health as well as social development. Many of the folks on the streets are disabled mentally and/or physically. Some are a danger to themselves and others. Designating an area where human beings are "allowed" to shelter themselves in the elements is inhumane. I don't believe the "bad guys" live in homeless camps. I believe the "bad guys" do business in the camps that inflict harm to the most vulnerable folks in the country. Why can't we house the homeless at least as well as we house criminals?

WTHeck?! You have to announce it? Since when did a gay walk into a bank and get thrown out? Since when did a lesbian walk into a bank and be refused service? Please cite all the bigoted incidents in Vancouver, BC that have caused you to think this is something that requires special signage as if Vancouver is just full of bigoted banking institutions!

    Hmmm. [21:00] I wonder about the future economic sectors induced by energy transition policies that are not captured, identified, GDP tallied in this. As for “bad for prosperity”. I suppose it’s spends how you measure prosperity. (Incidentally: I expect the lift in GDP due to tackling floods and fires is not projected in the models. Not that those are good things, but they will likely increase GDP. Another reason why GDP is such a lackluster metric. But it’s what we got, so… yeahhhhh)
