Today, we honour the 14 women whose lives were stolen at l’École Polytechnique.

Their memory calls us to confront the violence that still impacts women and gender-diverse workers every day and to demand better. #EndGBV #16Days

PM Carney subsidizes Big Oil to pump carbon to increase production.
He walks back greenwashing rules allowing Big Oil to lie.
He cuts a deal on planet killing methane.
Now his team is walking.
The CEO isn't smartest guy in the room when it comes to a burning planet.

We need to stop imposing what we think are best for Nations and instead partner with them to see what projects they are ready to build.

We need to close the infrastructure gap on First Nations.

Closing that gap and building infrastructure will improve Canada’s economy at large.

Just a reminder for those of you that can afford nice gifts for your kids for Christmas. Make the expensive ones from you, and something cheap from Santa. Don't make poor kids wonder why Santa loves the well off kids more.

This budget-tight season, you can skip Black Friday sales (except for perhaps supplies), and make things to gift: hot chocolate mix or baked goods, sewing project, or an experience (ie: axe throwing). :-D
Or donate to a charity on behalf of your friends/family.
Also, ask what is useful/needed. :-D
