"One obvious response would be to repatriate
a share of excess profits petroleum companies are capturing from a price shock which has no relationship to the
real supply or production cost conditions of the Canadian industry. Many countries in the world (including oil-pro-
ducing industrial countries like the U.K. and Norway) set higher taxes (of 50% or more) for petroleum profits
generated during periods of high prices." https://centreforfuturework.ca/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/A-Sequel-We-Dont-Want.pdf -

"The Atlantic provinces regulate retail prices for gasoline, to prevent unreasonable price hikes during
periods of price volatility. The assumption that petroleum prices must inevitably or naturally follow the gyrations
of financialized global futures markets is unjustified." https://centreforfuturework.ca/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/A-Sequel-We-Dont-Want.pdfhttps://www.cbc.ca/archives/complaining-about-the-cost-of-living-1968-edition-1.5475240

6/n "Some analysts conclude that
as a net exporter of oil, high oil prices must be ‘good’ for Canada. That assumption is wrong: since the country
does not ‘share’ its revenue from various sources like a unified, happy family, the record profits coming to the
domestic petroleum industry have no direct impact on incomes or living standards for Canadians (other than
those who own substantial stakes in the petroleum industry). Even Canadians in oil-producing provinces will be
net losers from this price shock." p. 31 https://centreforfuturework.ca/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/A-Sequel-We-Dont-Want.pdf -
Delilah Dagger B. @D6016 is one of the coolest #indie #comic artists I know, working out of #Newfoundland and drawing comics about identity, anti-fascism, and funny werewolf doggies.
You might disagree with me but I feel like her art is like if Mike Mignola and Steve Purcell got in a transgender transporter accident.
Her recent Vivi Lives comic is phenomenal. You can buy it on ko-fi, and follow her socials for comic releases.

"Six men began their abuse of young orphans on one coast of Canada, then by a travesty of justice were sent to the opposite side of the country, where they allegedly abused [200] more boys."
