I love your optimism @hobbitlover.bsky.social but today's announcement includes financing for the Pathway's carbon capture project which will cost taxpayers in the neighborhood of $60-70 billion.
How sure are you Carney will keep his word when the industry can't come up with the $$$$?

I think all the drama in the BC Conservative Party might have more to do with Eby's sudden interest in a snap election, than the fate of the North Coast Transmission Line. #bcpoli

Well maybe its just about Rustad appeasing the right wing of the Conservative Party as Sturko suggests in this interview. Or maybe she was to close to being able to prove that he cheated in the leadership review.

I suspect that he was using women in the plural sense and that redacted name in that email is Elenore Sturko's, the openly gay MLA from Surrey-Cloverdale who was kicked out of Conservative caucus by Rustad last night.
