Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy.

For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.

The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

Carney claims we need to produce more fossil fuels so we can electrify. Trudeau told us TMX would pay for electrification. Notice a pattern?

TMX didn't even pay for itself. How stupid do they think Canadians are?

Talked about the prospect of another pipeline and Carney's recent comments on my Monday political panel.

As I said, the biggest impediment isn't regulations or even Indigenous opposition but the lack of a viable business case.

This summer, Canada’s tourism sector did more business than ever before — by welcoming the world and being our own best customer. 
 
More good news: we just renewed the Canada Strong Pass for the holidays and summer 2026 — so it’s more affordable to explore our incredible country.

The most important driver of Canada's long-term economic success isn't a new pipeline or some other infrastructure project. It's getting immigration right — and capitalizing on the opportunity Trump is handing us on it. #cdnpoli

Donald Trump's immigration policy is a gift to Canada
Canada’s ability to integrate people from around the world has long been a source of comparative strength. It's all the more important right now.

An alarming sidelight on the back doors AI is opening up into scientific publications: not paper factories, but insta-comments for the letters pages.

🚨 This is inexplicable news to share. If in Alberta and you want flu and covid shots for NEXT year (2026-2027), you have only until December 15 of THIS year to order them.

This is not incompetence. It’s a deliberate choice to prevent as many people ..
