Michael Campbell’s MoneyTalks – Complete Show
That was a quick $10.5 million dollars that the Trudeau Government slipped into Omar Kadhr’s back pocket on America’s July 4th Birthday. The backlash has many facets but the most blatant is that Kadhr is getting $10.5 miilion and an apology from the Canadian government for admittedly killing an American soldier while fignting as an Afghani. Worse the family of the dead US Soldier Canadian citizen Kadhr killed got zero from Canada. That $10.5 Million tax dollars is also more money than has ever been paid to a Canadian soldier in history.

…..Money gets squandered. No Government expenditures should ever be above scrutiny but when it comes to Climate Change that is exactly what has been happening. Federal Bureaucrats even admit that the 4 billion spent between 1998 and 2003 to meet the Kyoto Accord committment was wasted. Stories of billions being lost are everywhere you look when it comes to climate change. Look no further than Ontario’s green energy program for one of the worst examples of waste.
…also Michael’s Mid-Week Update: Buckle Up: Here Comes Higher Rates
The markets are beginning to react to the hints coming from Central Banks around the world that interest rates are going to rise. Right now 90% of analysts think that Stephen Poloz, the current Governor of the Bank of Canada will raise rates this fall. Rate increases that will change the investment landscape across the board. Possibly the only factor that will hold back a rise in Canadian rates would be another significant fall in oil prices.

Why Aren’t We Celebrating Our Oil & Gas Industry
Posted by Michael Campbell

One has to wonder – Is Canada is the only country in the World where a majority of citizens would NOT celebrate a major new oil discovery? Despite the fact that Norway, the darling of the left, derives its success from North Sea Oil, the same celebrants look with disdain upon the Canadian Oil Industry. An industry that pays high wages and whose taxes support significant social programs.
