Hey fellow Canadians. Cost of living more important to you than addressing climate change?

Here's a 10-year graph of my home insurance costs, following on recent years of monstrously costly floods, wildfires, storms.

Just 1 of so many ways in which we're paying for *not* addressing climate change.

Canada also a good example.

I was going to post this with an observation about how far we've come.

But maybe that's assuming too much. I'm reserving judgement until after the US and Canadian elections.

CPC votes against Canada-Ukraine trade deal; claims it forces carbon tax on Ukraine (which already has one).

Here’s actual text. I’ve read a lot of trade deals. This is a boilerplate best-effort commitment to cooperate. Unremarkable, inconsequential. So what's the real rationale for that vote?
