March 6, 2024 | Canada Moves to Ban Christianity – Changes to Bill C-367

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has passed numerous pieces of legislation prohibiting free speech in Canada, yet nothing has been as restrictive as Bill C-367, an amendment to the Criminal Code that will prohibit Canadians from expressing “an opinion based on a belief in a religious text.

March 6, 2024 | Unlocking Fusion: The Role of AI in Sustainable Energy

March 5, 2024 | Sheltering in Place

Happy Monday Morning! As expected, the Bank of Canada held rates firm last week, pushing back on a growing chorus of market pundits calling for rate cuts. “The assessment of the governing council is that we need to give higher interest rates more time to do their work.” The persistence of core inflation north of […]

March 5, 2024 | What China’s Slowdown Means for the World Economy

For decades, China’s economic growth was tremendous. But now the nation is seeing a significant slowdown.

These issues may be a major headache not only for the Chinese people and President Xi Jinping, […]

March 5, 2024 | Monsters We Should Know: Victoria Nuland

Dig into any of the US Empire’s recent crimes you’ll find a bunch of familiar monsters. Dick Chaney composed the lies that sold the invasion of Iraq (WMDs!!), engineered the actual war, and then oversaw the “rebuilding” that enriched his business partners. John Bolton pops up in pretty in every administration of the past four decades, always agitating […]

March 5, 2024 | The 2024 Election – Will Your Vote Even Matter?

  The computer has been forecasting these events decades in advance. As we approach them, what seemed outlandish years ago probably seems today. The civil unrest is dividing not just the United States but we see it in Canada and throughout Europe. This is NOT simply due to Trump. What is unfolding is the discontent […]

March 4, 2024 | Vacancy Control

Happy Monday Morning! Last week we introduced the home flipping tax. A seductive new tax introduced by the BC Government that will hit evil speculators with a 20% tax on any profits derived from flipping a property within two years. Remember this new tax comes on top of the tax CRA already collects which, for […]

Current estimates are that we have six years to solve 80% and eleven years to solve 100% of the air pollution, climate & energy security problems caused by fossil fuels and bioenergy. We cannot afford to waste time and money on useless technologies that will not help us advance the cause of sustainable human life on […]

March 4, 2024 | Doomberg: Will The Shanghai Gold Arbitrage “Empty Vaults In London and Europe”?

Gold is suddenly fun again. We should probably just relax and enjoy it, but if you’re curious about why this is happening, Doomberg, publisher of the top-ranked Substack financial newsletter, has a plausible answer. Here’s a (lightly edited) transcript from a just-released Doomberg interview with Soar Financially’s Kai Hoffman, followed by the full video: Two big gold market […]

March 4, 2024 | The CFTC’s Response

March 4, 2024 | Haley win Washington DC which is 98% Democrat – What do You Expect?

March 3, 2024 | German Health Minister Said We Need to Boost Healthcare in case of “military conflict”

I have been reporting that it is the West that wants war because the financial system is collapsing. They are reaching the point where they know that the are rapidly approaching the point of collapse which HISTORICALLY always takes place when governments run these Ponzi Schemes where they NEVER intend to pay off what they borrow, so they constantly […]

March 3, 2024 | The Dregs Take Flight

  The endgame inched closer to singularity last week with rigged rallies in stocks that had rightfully been given up for dead.  There was the more than doubling in the price of Beyond Meat, for example.  Until last week, shares of the veggie-burger upstart seemed content to scuddle sideways on a tortuous path to death. […]

March 3, 2024 | When Readers Speak

Today, we have a different kind of letter. I’ve been in California for some rather innovative and hopefully life/health span-extending medical treatment. I’m fine, but it has been a bit tiring. So this week, I’m handing the keyboard to you, my intrepid and smart readers. This is easier than it used to be, thanks to […]

March 1, 2024 | Chinese Capital Retreating From Foreign Realty Markets

Thirteen years of ‘easy money’ spurred debt complacency and a global credit boom that inflated asset prices, particularly real estate, worldwide. Now, higher rates are triggering the great unwind in a dash to reduce overhead and raise cash everywhere, all at once. Countries that saw the most significant influx of foreign investment and property appreciation- […]

March 1, 2024 | Art of the Collapse, March 2024

Obviously, we have to start with Google’s epic Gemini AI faceplant. It’s not often that a new product launch crashes a company’s stock, but this one shaved $96 billion from the parent company’s market cap in a single week. The responses to Gemini’s … um … lack of attention to historical detail, run the gamut from funny […]
