To those who may have wondered how the citizenry of 1930s Germany could ever have acquiesced to the atrocities that the 1940s would bring … or how today Americans elected a wanna be dictator like Trump ... we now have our answer - it's the influential power of Fascist Media.

Am I wrong? [2/2]

Thank you for the feature!

Good luck with the show. Unfortunately I will be unable to attend the Opening but I will try to see the Exhibition. Cheers!

Fay. Thank you for sharing your thoughtful and well written words.

Nicely done!

I initially was of a similar mind as you on this, but more often than not, CNN anchors get overwhelmed by the blizzard of disinformation and filibustering such that the occasional fact checks get lost. The end result for most casual viewers is that the truth gets blurred … which benefits Trumpists.

albeit, with early steps that seem to side with short term consumer economics vs long term energy policy. Clearly, environmental issues will receive more audience with this govt — although they will benefit from your continued advocacy. You have my support. Let me know how I can help. Cheers! (3/3)

I know that energy policy is very complex. Hydro utilizes long term planning & short term focus. Political horizons are notoriously short. Conflict abounds, esp in the post-Bob Brennan years. The previous PC reign was problematic for Hydro. The Kinew govt has been more constructive (2/3)

Hi Scott. I generally agree with your positions on the need to address climate change. Having been on the inside of these deliberations at Hydro and testified to their financial ramifications at the PUB, including under cross examination by the Consumers Association of Canada, (1/3)

Trump routinely conflates his opinions with simple observations (his facts) to create narratives which he loudly proclaims to be the FACT. Such is the creation of the universe of “alternate facts”.

It’s been a good convo John. I appreciate your perspective. Cheers!

Ok … I see now, you have an onboard view that “Rebates are giveaways to buy votes. Pure and simple”. That’s not a statement of fact but rather your opinion … also rather cynical. Interesting discussion here John. I think this thread has been exhausted. Best wishes.

Love your passion. Lots of interesting ideas. I’m still uncertain what your taxation/ economic/ financial solution would look like 🤷‍♂️?

I get it, you don’t like consumer rebates … what’s better in your mind?

I wasn’t talking about transfer pmts as offsets - but I do agree PP may adversely affecting such transfers. Borrowing money is good public policy if within ratios. Have you ever had a house mortgage? MB credit rating is stellar - I know, I used to be in the MB meetings with Moody’s, S&P, and DBRS.
November 20, 2024 at 3:38 AM
I see what you’re doing here. You’re simply adding your calculated revenue shortfalls to make your overall argument while not considering offsetting benefits of these policy decisions. You are also using public borrowings as a boogeyman (again MB credit rating is stellar). How would you improve $$?
November 20, 2024 at 3:28 AM
You are also assuming no offsetting revenues or economic stimulus benefits in your analysis? Deficits have been run by almost all govts for decades & easily financed by fixed rate long term debt with historically low interest rates. MB credit rating is still top tier & impact to public is minimal.
November 20, 2024 at 3:12 AM
I sense we may be in the same public policy side here, but in order to buttress your opinions, as you say “Facts matter”. Please provide facts for: the amount of revenues (billions?) govts willingly did not generate? How much did the govt borrow to provide “rebates”?

Manitoba Hydro is financially viable as the long term prospects are quite positive. Hydro’s financial variations are mostly due to water levels/weather. While I generally support rate increases (I was a testifying witness before the PUB), a one year hiatus is not going to affect MH’s viability.

As someone who was a testifying witness before the Public Utilities Board as Hydro’s Corporate Treasurer in support of rate increases and gave financial testimony at the NFAT, I can assure you that a one year rate freeze will not significantly affect MB’s overall government revenues. We should talk.

One of my fav birds too!
November 20, 2024 at 2:01 AM
Hi Scott. As someone who was a testifying witness before the Public Utilities Board as Hydro’s Corporate Treasurer for rate cases and the NFAT, I can assure you that a one year rate freeze will not adversely affect MB’s energy transition … nor is the NDP plan “burn baby burn.” We should talk.

Ditto. As an artist, Insta is still a big positive. www.instagram.com/manny_schulz...
