The net income in the second quarter increased by 33.3 million to 63,1 million, over doubling from the second quarter last year. The quarter generated a 10 million dollar tax liability due to increased income.
Two consistent quarters
Net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 increased by $59.4 million to $114.4 million, as compared to $55.0 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase is mainly due to the $81.3 million increase in equity AFUDC, due to spending on the Expansion Project, partially offset by the $19.3 million increase in income tax expense, due to higher pre-tax income, the $2.2 million increase in interest expense, and the $2.0 million decrease in Adjusted EBITDA.
TMX
EBITDA
A company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (commonly abbreviated EBITDA, pronounced) is an accounting measure calculated using a company’s earnings, before interest expenses, taxes, depreciation, and amortization are subtracted, as a proxy for a company’s current operating profitability (i.e., how much profit it makes with its present assets and its operations on the products it produces and sells, as well as providing a proxy for cash flow).
Two quarter increase due to customer funded equity.
Customer Income toward construction, is not moved to inventory or assets, and will eventually go to capitalization.
Who is the customer.
Trans Mountain moves oil by tariff, The 12 billion dollar (funding) cost of construction of the expansion should end up as capitalized expenses and will be written off against taxable income on a scaled annual basis and rate. Meaning that if it is ever sold the deprecated rate will be subject to recapture at a selling price that morally, should shadow fair market value or better, a profit for the Canadian taxpayer when they sell..

start and success will depend on individual effort as well.

Phase 4 starts tomorrow…
John Horgan says no Sept 7th restart to normal, two weeks ago…
Phase 4 will only be achieved when COVID-19 is no longer a risk, due to an effective treatment, vaccination, or evidence of community immunity. Until British Columbia reaches Phase 4, there will be no rock concerts, conventions, or large gatherings of more than 50 people. Resumption of business, but not business-as-usual

Get vaccinated.
The Variant is out there and Covid-19 will still get you, that will hurt people I have that work in the health care system, we don’t want it to create another dependant class of people to replace the Ingenious that may be coming out of that on September 30th. TIC
Restrictions during phase 4.
The only real restriction planned for phase 4 is business will still be under public health guidance, large events are only targeted for ” increased numbers”
Polio was a scrooge to the population prior to vaccinations, put on US president in a wheel chair for life. But true horror was the triage for for who might live when recourses were needed to be rationed. The truth of it is that you don’t mess with these things when they can be resolved, because that door may not always be open. I am familiar with one case where a young girl inn the 30’s involuntarily traded. her high school time for a life never getting out of an iron lung capsule.
That was a better outcome for people that go triaged out of that limited resource. Covid.19 is out there and so are you, it will find you in that 20 percent of unvaccinated. and you may triaged out because of your present health and age and the availability of treatment resources.
As provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry was announcing tighter restrictions to cover all of the Interior Health region, she said it won’t be a surprise if the province doesn’t advance to Step 4 in September.

Japan is a seafood loving , long life expectancy, going to sea nation. Claiming poverty for living space because of a lage population on 5 main islands, there are thousands of small islands under their control .
Dolphins range about and have individual characters
Dolphins are distinct from Porpoise ( not by being aimless and without porpoise) but by their teeth Dolphin teeth are conical Porpoise teeth are Flattened.
Japanese History as Seamen
The Japanese have a tradition of seamanship and vessels. They are not to be mistaken for the Chinese and their junks. Both have a long trading history with the middle east and the sill road when it was mostly navigated by following the long coastline. Their craft resembles the Arabic sloops of that time.
Trans Mountain Expansion,, TMX is a pipeline that is a twinning of an existing one that comes from the Edmonton Alberta area and brings Alberta crude west through Burnaby to refineries in the US that process and distribute oil products into the free market. Trans mountain works on a tariff system that it charges producers to transport the crude to destinations. They do not own the oil.
Know as the trans-mountain apartments, Merritt BC File Photo KDG
Owned by the Government of Canada.
The 60 year oil company that was the Trans Mountain Pipeline was bought the Trudeau Government from US investors to ensure that the national interest of its bringing oil from Alberta was secure against the “oppression of the majority” and other dynamics of the provincial interest of big against small, wealth transfer, strategic supply of the needed chemicals for energy, food , medicines, and the sovereign Canadian ability to mange its own.
Trans Mountain pipeline was commissioned in March 1951, after an act of the Canadian Parliament created it.
Trans mountain pipeline was born in the public interest, moved in and out of public control over its life time and at this time remains steadily in Canadian public control, at least until completion of and the maturity of its role in the supply line. The standards of construction and maintenance may exceed what is generically called an oil pipeline elsewhere in the world, which is good we believe. The following videos are produced by Trans Mountain however they are film and can be easily verified by interested.
Climate Change Emergency.
The discourse of the current federal election has some candidates calling global warming as an emergency situation. We agree that the demands of human population is making for all kinds of emergency situations and they all need attention. The carbon thing is to be addressed by emissions controls after use and requires industry to do it if other needed dynamics are not to be neglected.
Insurance
Some are calling for the insurance industry to not give insurance to the TMX operations, in an effort to stop the construction. We have not researched who may be providing insurance to the operations. However for those that find comfort in the fact that insurance company’s often partner by under writing projects we would remind you that the Canadian Government self insures its operations as do some large corporations and because the TMX operations are government owned its a mute point to try to undermine its construction by that kind of boycott
Sense of place
The way the expansion and indeed the continuation of life on earth should not violate our peoples sense of place or belonging.. Three generations have come along of people that directly benefited from Trans Mountain operations, sense of place is well established with these, we hope that those that are not at arms length will try to and speak out when needed, to support the good things, that may come to the people in the macro sense.
New cases peaked on the 21st of August making the curve start to bend down from 2664 and the seven day average at 2736. The 28th saw 1699 new with the seven day average 2,414 showing the down trend.
Over 5 billion vaccinations world wide, Canada punching above weight…
There were 5,213,175,620 vaccinations accounted for worldwide, Canada has accounted 52,057,379 doses roughly 1 percent pf the worlds effort.. Canada has 0.5 percent of the world population, this makes a small number to administer and care for covid-19 related measures, meaning Canada’s effort is a rounded success, but not complete yet..
Hey another private supply mission was scrubbed over weather on Saturday. The 5000 lb pay load will have a window for another try after 3 am EST Sunday the 29th. So it may show up and be docked with another Musk Falcon rocket already docked at the ISS around breakfast time. Any how here is a you tube live view from NASA to enjoy what ever activity is their on Sunday. Regards
Private corporations for space…
The unlimited budget and hundred’s of thousands of workers from the cold war space race is passed and Nasa is developing private contactors for some of its more routine work. Sunday will see another window for a SpaceX corporation Falcon 9 cargo rocket to launch a mission to the ISS.
Three contenders in the US.
Leading the pack of contract hopeful is Elon Musk and his Spacex corporation. ( noted for putting one of his EV cars into orbit) with a man playing the radio in the drivers seat.

Candidates have until day 21 at two past morning time to register as a candidate.
Take note on who was prepared as this is an election that was called to straighten out parliament 2 years before the regulated day. If many candidates did not get their parties nomination through a contest it is likely that they were not ready. Oppositions are there to oppose and provide an alternative to the ruling party. The official opposition is always in a state of some readiness coming from the fact they have official critics that get budget from parliament to be prepared as an alternative if their critics’ weaken the confidence in the governing party..
Independents
There are some that go through the necessary filing and obtaining of nominators to get a platform for there view point. There is all candidate forums and they get to present to the interested public, along with those with party nominations.
Good luck and good manners waiting your turn to present when ears are open,; to anyone who try’s.
