Opportunities North -- to Alaska


I hope you had a good week of fishing, because there was plenty of fishwrap with the publication of the now-fictional three section supplement Opportunities North inserted in the Frostbite Falls Fishwrap.

This enormous waste of trees is an annual offering at the Fishwrap, but has really outlived it’s usefulness -- if it ever had any -- outside of using advertising dollars to wrap fish.

The only “opportunities” left in the North are for the parasites; lawyers and consultants feeding off the aboriginal groups or for the eco-thugs who brought this economy to its knees. 

If you can sleep at a boardroom table without slobbering too much or snoring too loud, you can take an appointment at one of the 100s of redundant boards.

These are the crumbs left after the cake was put back in the oven.

While we sat silent, the eco-freaks and redundant regulators legislated a living and a legacy away from the people of the NWT.

On Friday, Exxon announced that they’d be backing TransCanada’s bid on the Alaska pipeline, driving yet another nail in the coffin of the Mackenzie Gas Project.

The US has already offered up $18 billion in loan guarantees, with another $30 billion forthcoming, while our government is playing their cards close to their chest. Exxon knows a good thing when they see it. 

It doesn’t help having a Member of Parliament who refuses to support the $16 billion job in his riding. “The federal government should not be a cheerleader to this pipeline project,” Dennis Bevington said in monthly manifesto. Further, the Groucho Marxist urged the Joint Review Panel: “Take your time to do a thorough job.”

They’ve done as you told them, Dennis. As for all the working families you and Taliban Jack say your fighting for, well, they’re left out in the cold -- literally.

Sleep well, you mealy-mouthed little worm and pray there isn’t an election soon. This time you won’t get the protest vote – those votes will go to the Anyone But Dennis Party.

  1. I am so glad you have this blog. Through this I am sure people will see what kind of shit-slinging monkey you really are. Hopefully armed with the knowledge that you are sexist, homophobic, sociopathic neanderthal you will never advanced beyond shitty, backwater councillor in buttfuck nowhere.

    I think it's hilarious that you speak with such tough guy machismo, safe behind your keyboard where you probably jerk off and cry while you write this drivel.

    Face to face you'd be too much of a snivelling wimp to talk like this.

    Anyway keep up the good work. The more people who see you for the ass scratching ape you are the more we can look forward to being trapped up in no man's land where you can do little damage.

  3. Yay! New mail from my #1 fan!
    Can I send you an 8X10 glossy?
    Sorry about the "its." I'll try harder, if you start ending your sentences with periods. Oh yeah...and try some hyphens -- it's "face-to-face" and "ass-scratching."
    I'm gonna have to send you back to Megan.

    All my love
    Terry
