    Let me tell you how bad of a job Biden has done. He's been so terrible that you and other liberals are cheering for cheaper oil. Lord have mercy!!!!

    When the world was searching for a covid vaccine, Canada was begging other countries because they didn't have the resources to invent or produce their own.


    Now that the world is facing extradentary prices at the pump, Canada is once again doing it's part by releasing 50 million pounds of maple syrup from it's reserves.




    Canada releases 50 million pounds from maple syrup reserve amid global shortage



    The Biden administration is trying to reign in gas prices by releasing oil from the US strategic reserve — but a different sticky supply situation north of the border has spurred Canadians to tap their emergency stockpile of maple syrup amid a major shortage of the sweet stuff.
    The Quebec Maple Syrup Producers is a government-sponsored cartel that controls some 70 percent of the world’s maple syrup supply and is sometimes compared to the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries’ grip on oil.
    The consortium of more than 11,000 Canadian maple syrup producers said this week that a warmer- and shorter-than-expected spring led to a 24 percent year-over-drop in production of the pancake topping.
    Amid surging demand for syrup as more people cook at home amid the pandemic, the cartel has been forced to tap a whopping 50 million pounds of syrup from its strategic reserve.

    I'm not talking about refining. I am talking about the cost of getting in out of the ground. The same is true when they talk about the market price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI). WTI is the underlying commodity for the NYMEX's oil futures contract and is considered a high-quality oil that is easily refined. WTI is one of the standards for Light Sweet Crude.

    If I am going to go the expense of buying pure maple syrup, I stick with products from Vermont and other parts of New England. The rest of the world can have that Canadian crap.

    So to be clear, are you saying that you want expensive oil but cheap gasoline? Is that about right?

    Oh, we had the resources but not the political will. Our prime minister threw the money at foreign companies , instead of investing it at home.

    Now as for maple syrup, it's very important. But to use it as a bad example of whatever you are trying to point out is kinda silly.

    Re: The Shining City Upon a Hill

    What a twisted way of looking at life! Give school desk's to african kids while America schools cant teach the inner city kids how to read and write to a 3rd grade level. Country being destroyed from within and you are worried about the rest of the world? What world do you live in? From looting to car jacking's, to murders, no respect for the people that put their lives in line to help the citizens, And you to give deskes to kids in africa? How does one mind get to that point, in acknowledgement that it doesnt work, that socialism gradually brings down the prosperity and happiness of a country. If you dont understand that or wish not to understand it, my God have mercy on your soul. But, from your writings(posts), you couldnt care less what God would think of you. God Bless America! Still the greatest country in the world. Even with people of your ilk.

    Billy you rascist dope you do realize a Canadian scientist develped the Covid19 VACCINE

    Without Ian MacLachlan’s innovative delivery system, Moderna and Pfizer couldn’t safely get their mRNA vaccines into your cells. So why does hardly anyone acknowledge the Canadian biochemist’s seminal contributions—or pay a dime in royalties?

    Suggest you start reading more before you make a fool of yourself if it's not to late.

    Google it really really works for U people
