I share your skepticism. The fact that Greenspon (regardless of how nice a person he is in real life) lobbied for a slush fund which lines the pockets of newspaper executives and throws the objectivity of our entire media ecosystem into question, undermines his credibility as any kind of purveyor of genuinely important 'big ideas' (this isn't to say however that he can be blamed for Slush Fund: The Sequel Bill C18 in which Big Tech is forced to take over payment from the government - a really good 'idea,' if deceiving the public is one of your objectives).

(BTW Paul, investing in this newsletter was a good idea. Getting great value for money, thank you).

Dumbest thing ever!

The primary obstacle to supply of things like oil & gas, pipelines, energy export terminals, minerals, housing, air travel, telecommunications, doctors, children's medication, and basically anything else in short supply in this country is government interference and regulation. Get rid of that, and the problem will be solved. Try to solve the problem without culling regulation, and you are just wasting everybody's time.
