Today, we remember women hurt or killed by cowardly violence and stand with survivors and their loved ones.
As the 16 Days of Activism begins, we recommit to preventing violence, strengthening supports, and doing the work so every woman in our province feels safe.

Meanwhile in Canada we are yammering about a bitumen pipeline
Most people hear “heat pump” and think of small air-source units at home. But Germany is building one of the world’s largest heat pumps in Mannheim: a 162 MW river-source system using heat from the Rhine.
Big reminder that heat-pumps scale far beyond households — they can decarbonise whole cities.

Totally. NATO members + EU states have been WAY too slow to support Ukraine, to see fascist Russia for what it is, and to appreciate the scale of the threat. Even now, many in Canada and Europe don’t understand that Ukraine is defending the wider democratic world - the Kremlin is at war with us too!
