“Soraya Martinez Ferrada breathlessly defended Airbnbs as 'mom-and-pop operations' run by snowbirds just trying to earn an extra buck. As if we don't know that the real issue with Airbnbs is large-scale operators destroying our rental market by removing hundreds of units at a time.”

I ran for office for Montreal's nightlife community — and against landlords, Airbnb apologists and NIMBY creeps
I ran as a Transition Montréal candidate in the 2025 Montreal election, and all I got was 100 leftover campaign tshirts I can't sell.

In 2000, almost 90% of Denmark's electricity was from fossil fuels. By 2024, 90% of their electricity was from renewables. ⚡ Energy transitions can happen faster than we think!

Sorry to harp on about this, but item 60 in budget Appendix M13 contemplates ending the Community Investment Grant Program. That this is being considered, however remotely, is crazy. I'm struggling to find a list of all the groups the CIGP funds b/c if you saw it, it'd blow your mind. #yqrcc /1

Carney’s next book should be called “Value($): Building a better world for very rich people, burning it up for everyone else.” Or: “How I caved to the oil and gas industry, and did it with a smile on my face.”

All of that debt championed by Mayors #Fiacco and #Fougere, then Premier #BradWall, and the #Regina business community.
For what? 9 #Rider games a year, a big concert every 5 years, and a #GreyCup every 10 years.
Foolish spending by foolish men.

Over 40% of corn grown in Indiana is used to make ethanol that cars burn. One acre of corn yields about 16,500 vehicle-miles per year of ethanol, which sounds high until you realize that one acre of solar yields about 2,700,000 vehicle-miles per year: 16,000% more driving for a given plot of land.

As I’m typing these words, Israel is illegally intercepting the Global Sumud Flotilla that is trying to break the siege on Gaza.
This is an illegal enforcement of an illegal blockade.

Shaun Semple insisted a lease at Regina’s exhibition grounds was not a deal.
CBC had obtained a copy of the document.
It shows REAL could potentially miss out on tens of millions of dollars in rent over the course of the 90-year lease.
