It's so important we all learn about these groups and what their ideology is. They talk about "moving the Overton window" and having influence over Conservative parties.
CBC has put together an impressive collection of clips exposing Diagolon and Second Sons in their own words. These are white nationalists and neo-Nazis who want an ethnic cleansing and believe "violence is the answer." Largest group of its kind in Canadian history. www.youtube.com/watch?app=de...

TLDR: "Electric heat pumps are six to eight times more efficient than heating with gas. And gas companies will act deceptively to prevent you from knowing this."

This is heartbreaking, infuriating & shameful all at once. Our “record” as a country committed to refugee protection is rapidly crumbling, at a time when that example is so sorely needed in a world of closing borders. Time to turn in our Nansen Award.

You absolutely should question if this 4-hour interrogation of an internationally renowned legal expert on his *95TH BIRTHDAY* was politically motivated and an abuse of power

If CBSA refuses to explain itself, it is betraying the public's trust and deserves no benefit of the doubt

"Fossil demand has been flat for industrial energy since 2014, for buildings since 2018, for road transport since 2019, & may peak for electricity this year. 2/3 of countries have already seen peak fossil demand in end-use sectors, & half the world has seen a peak in fossil fuels for electricity."

Latest from me about how a consortium of companies led by Shell offered at least one community member money as long as they agreed not to raise concerns with "members of the media, the [BC Energy Regulator] or the District of Kitimat."
LNG Canada offered thousands of dollars to a Kitimat, B.C., resident to temporarily “relocate” due to flaring and noise from the company's gas liquefaction and export facility. The resident would also have to agree not to bring future legal claims about property damage.

Look at this, every year infrastructure spending for non-Native communities goes up, and at the same time spending for First Nations infrastructure goes down.

Absolutely amazing: they've got so much solar in Australia that they need more people to use more of it, so the gov't has instructed energy retailers to offer *at least three hours of free power* during the middle of the day.

Meanwhile fossil-addled US struggles with an energy-price crisis ...
Energy retailers to be directed to offer free power three hours a day
Saying there is enough solar power for everyone in the daytime, Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen will direct retailers to provide three hours of free power every day to consumers.

This is some psychotic, McCarthy-esque bullshit.
The Canadian Parliamentary Standing Committee on Science and Research is launching a US-style attack on EDI in Tri-Council funding.

As part of this attack, they are demanding disclosure of confidential demographic info + reviewer comments of all Canadian researchers who have applied b/w 2000-2025.
