There is no political, economic or environmental case for even pretending to consider Northern Gateway pipeline.
Mark Carney has given a huge with to Danielle Smith while reviving the environmental conflicts of Stephen Harper.
This is a huge mistake.

Prime Minister Mark Carney’s success in his first year has been to successfully convey an image of being the “smartest guy in the room.”

Care worker burnout is not just exhaustion. It is a measure of a system that continues to fail disabled people. When stable funding, accessible housing, and consistent services are missing, care workers are left filling the gaps.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

As basic question from an ex-police reporter: Can some of our journalists detail the training regimen all these new federal agents receive? The lethal incompetence involving use of force and perameters of the 4A suggests they are just handed guns, masks and badges and told to go fuck people up.
ICE is made up of men who have failed the human test and have nothing of value to offer this nation.
