Hands down the best analysis I've read of last week's Fed-Alberta energy agreement. Trust me, @chrishatch.bsky.social's piece will make you both laugh and cry 👇

Excellent interview about the hope that still exists for us to change course and slow climate change. Not too late but provincial and federal governments must act now!
