Haha yes I thought of that when typing and almost corrected, but thought the point was actually still valid: as opposed to liking or not cilantro, which isn’t correlated to your socio economic context, wanting a pipeline or opposing one is a matter of a broader context and media should bring that up

Journalists, stop framing being pro or anti-pipeline is a matter of personal preference, as if it was similar to liking cilantro or not. The media basically forced Carney to say that he was open to a pipeline, when none of his speeches mentioned one. Now they won’t let it go before rage = clicks.

What I do appreciate with his statement are his remarks on how working within the confines of this profit-driven, growth-obsessed system *will* fail. That's the headline we need, over and over. We need every thought leader to express that in their own words, for the narrative to stick.

Second, on the strategy:
This is a cruel thing for Suzuki to say. He is leaving our movement with even more apathy and despair, our biggest challenges. Saying "it's too late" validates what some people already think: since the world will burn regardless, let me have fun now by adding to the fire.

First, on the facts:
"Too late" doesn't mean anything in climate science: we are trying to avoid degrees of warming. Every fraction of a degree avoided matters.
Yes, we will pass the dreaded 1.5 C of warming. But our actions could mean this is only a temporary overshoot - not a permanent thing.

This was super insightful.
I’ve also been feeling like the Carney government is taking an archaic/ old-school approach to other major problems, including climate and energy energy…

"When Conservative critic Shannon Stubbs asked how political, hand-picked projects would give investors more certainty, Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson responded: “the politicians do not pick the projects.” But this is precisely what Bill C-5 does, it is the legislation’s raison d’être"
