Unbelievable... Wow.

Are you amused the little things that Pierre's silly #DitchBillies are losing their minds over? What's their next 9-Alarm Fire going to be over?

Mr. Meredith brings the facts (as always) on the small number of Canadians who will be impacted by changes to the capital gains tax. Perhaps all of the pundits who shill for millionaires can pipe down now?

Interesting thread on Musk's current negotiations with Tesla shareholders on his compensation, which is, of course, obscene.

👉Last week: Pierre Poilievre commits to using Notwithstanding Clause.

👉This week: MPs start bringing forward petitions in favour of banning abortion.

(PS2) All this makes Elon Musk look *terrible*.
