Three Points

1. Okay, my errands and movie-watching are done for today. I'm home now. Not sure just how tired I am at this point. But I got my time and money's worth from Infinity War.

2. As regards the Koch Brothers: Guessing they're going to have people trying to meddle in Canada too. I have a problem with that.

3. I have a problem with this thing with Aecon and China Communications Construction Corporation. Because, with "Xi Xinping Thought" in play, that means someone thinks Canada is a province to be taken away from someone else's empire rather than a nation - or. perhaps more accurately, a legitimate alliance of nations - in its own right.

Sorry about the Kochs moving northward, that sucks. You prevented Fox and their clone died, but I guess blind greed capitalism has to expand or die.

Oh, they've had stakes up here for a while now. From 2014:

Not surprised in the least.  I kinda wish those tar sands had never existed.
