When you think about all the work Guilbeault and others put into the clean electricity regs and emissions cap its especially frustrating that Carney can just erase it all overnight to get his little deal with Alberta www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

I hope Scott Moe is proud he’s getting sued by a 12-year-old who wants a liveable future. #skpoli

Why are Chinook fisheries and recreational fishing still legal? Chinook salmon are declining- they are the main food source for southern resident killer whales. It’s one of the main reasons the whale population is critically endangered and could become extinct.
