00:00:00.000 Vegas, if you know any friends in Vegas right now, they had a bad night, torrential flooding,
00:00:05.480 shut down the entire strip, Corey. Flash floodings, Caesar's Palace was flooded out,
00:00:12.240 underground parking. Our Mike Thomas has got a good story on it up there now and
00:00:17.600 several videos where you can just see how badly Mother Nature treated Las Vegas.
00:00:26.160 The German city of Hanover has banned hot water in municipal buildings and swimming pools and
00:00:33.420 things like that. So no hot showers at work anymore. This is because of the Russians cutting
00:00:39.180 off the gas supply over Germany's helping the Ukraine. So that's going to be fun and games
00:00:46.880 for them. Our David Creighton has got a column, his latest column on the Trudeau Follies, this time
00:00:54.720 talking about your friends in the green movement and how they are basically going to kill Canadian
00:01:02.280 farming and Trudeau has got to go. Spare me for a second, are there lots of good stuff up

00:01:16.160 them. He got absolutely hammered and drove drunk and passed out at a BC Burger King where he was
00:01:24.720 discovered. A poor Burger King employee couldn't wake him and called the authorities after about 20
00:01:31.060 minutes. So he's been able to keep his job. You remember the out roar earlier this week over the
00:01:38.420 Canmore Deli. A former co-owner wrote a very homophobic letter to Pride people who were trying to ask him
00:01:49.020 for some sponsorship or a gift for Canmore Pride Week. They put out a new social media policy hoping to
00:01:56.020 get some customers back. And no surprise to me, Corey, but the cost of the coastal gas link pipeline up 70%.
00:02:04.860 But they're still on time to finish it off. I think it's either by the end of 23 or 24.
00:02:12.860 So
