We can all laugh at the way the Peter states are spending money like they are drunk, but they are doing it not just to sanitize their image but to diversify because they see the writing on the wall. How come we can’t see that writing in Canada?
Look out BC! China’s LNG demand drops for 13th month running. Last week, Pakistan cancelled a huge contract to purchase LNG from Qatar (even choosing to pay a penalty) because they no longer need/want it -- the solar revolution is quickly displacing demand for LNG.

Author John Vaillant, The Golden Spruce, describes Hecate: “The Strait is a malevolent weather factory. During winter storms, waves can reach 10-20 m and expose the sea floor. The result is one of the most diabolically hostile environments that wind, sea and land are capable of conjuring.” #cdnpoli

This whole MOU is based on lies. There's no such thing as "low emission" bitumen. CCUS does NOT work. Indigenous co-ownership IS NOT reconciliation. Doubling down on fossil fuels & AI data centres will NOT "lower costs." Both govts are putting corporations before the public interest. #CDNPoli #ABLeg

This is a really good point. I used to get buttonholed at parties with 'Oh, I thought of you this morning, I saw a cyclist jump a red light'

Something I've been thinking about a lot lately is how when a driver does something wrong, the public and media don't smear all drivers as reckless assholes. But when a cyclist — and especially an e-biker — does something wrong, all bicyclists get attacked and blamed.

What, precisely, is the crisis? When will it be resolved? People have been talking about housing crises since the 80s. I agree that there’s a long-run upward drift in housing costs; I agree some high-cost metros have real issues. But what are we seeing right now that’s a nationwide crisis?
