I would be more than happy to look at a consumption tax if they’d be willing to give me a substantial income tax break. You know… for the benefit of EVERYBODY!

I also share some mild opinion about the Pope and why I’m not podcasting as frequently.

Thanks to all who contacted me, letting me know they want another episode. I explain why I took a few weeks off. Not much of a game plan in this episode. I hope it feeds the need nonetheless…

More of a catharsis today.

I’m tired of hearing lame attempts to disguise bullshit as sincerity. Guilty parties today include Chief Theresa Spence and Grand Poobah Gary Bettman. It insults me when people speak at me with a forked tongue. It should anger you to.

Pardon the use of the word ‘bullshit’ in today’s episode. If it was clean enough for my gran, I’m sure it’s clean enough for the internets.

Canada lost at hockey… to the Americans… and we just can’t take it! Our lust for hockey embarrasses us sometimes.

Anyway, the Wildrose Party wants to fund hockey arenas with a Keno game. Gambling and the WRP, two things I love… so why do I not support the idea. Also, Idle No More and a nice gift from the Harper gov’t.

Thanks for listening. Please share on twitter and google+ or whatever you use.

Thanks for letting me delay this by a few days. I wanted to wait until the NRA press conference… and boy was that disappointing!

Naturally, I’ll speak a bit about Sandy Hook, guns, and why I said what I did about teachers on Thursday’s radio show.

Back from a week off. Very rested. Thanks for asking.

In the run this week: Nexen, health care inquiry, and the right to die.

Thanks to Jim and Tom at Village Brewery for fueling today’s episode. I popped by to celebrate a year of beer on their part. If you haven’t tried their wares yet, I encourage you to do so. Great product by great people. It’s the beer I feel good drinking.

Cheers!

I have it on good authority that the premier said “fuck” in the legislature today. Classy! She’s more and more like a villain wrestler everyday!

Okay… so, taking stock, the PCs have closed a seniors home, hesitantly agreed they should have better food to eat, and most recently said they’d “look into” getting them showered more than once per week. I love a government that treats their greatest generation like zoo exhibits.

This week, why Alison Redford should be turfed and why Rob Ford should not.

I’m disheartened. I had conducted an interview with Tony Binns, stand-up comic and facebook friend of TRKS, about the left wing vs. right wing battle that rages in our country, but I screwed up the recording of it. Naturally, I’m sure he won’t mind if I blame society for my shortcoming. So I’m sorry that’s not in the podcast this week.

I still found the fortitude to comment on poor David McGuinty (Liberal MP from Ottawa) and his anti-Albertan perspective and Justin Trudeau and his sudden pro-energy industry position.

Also… why Canadians have to learn to say ‘yes.’

Thanks for listening.

What is the fiscal cliff? I’m glad you asked! I try to explain it in this podcast. Try to… the bottom line to me in all this fiscal cliff nonsense is this; It’s a man-made problem, there is a man-made solution, and those mans have to figure out how to avert these issues down the road.

As well, I extend my venom on the Alberta government’s decision to start racking up debt again. Funny, we know that America’s debt is out of control, yet we’re happy to jump into that pool here in Alberta? Odd.

Lastly, some people decided to have a baby in a building with a no-baby bylaw. Poor baby. The baby will be raised by irresponsible people who refuse to hold themselves accountable for their own mistakes. Poor baby. Off to a bad start.
