Never forget, we were manipulated into hating carbon pricing here in Canada.
It’s exhausting to hear reporters lazily referencing the “unpopular carbon tax” while giving up on informing us that the reason it’s “unpopular” is the successful conservative misinformation campaign ignoring that it’s better than price neutral for people & is a bare minimum tool for climate action.

1. There has been a major effort by that old combination – big business and the far right – to diss foods derived from plants. The meat lobby invests big time in misinformation. And the far right hates “soyboys”, while associating itself with red meat-eating. It's a match made in hell. 🧵

So, according to Republicans, attacking our Capitol & beating police officers with their own shields is “free speech” that gets you pardoned, but signing your name to an op-ed in support of Palestine is “causing a ruckus” that gets you deported.
Do I have that just about right?

I see tomorrow is Friday.
Is Friday going a tariff day, or a some-tariffs day, or a no-tariffs day?
Or will it be some other kind of day, like an annex-Greenland day, or a Hannibal-Lecter-wants-to-have-you-for-dinner day, or an Arnold-Palmer-size day, or something else?
I just can’t keep track.

As a climate reporter I have dealt a *lot* with Americans' almost total lack of tolerance for sitting with complex problems. Ours is very much a "hurry up and get to the solutions" culture, a "I'm just trying to stay positive" culture. It's not real helpful when facing deeply rooted complex problems
