Going thru old photos: 2002 in my editor office, windows smashed second weekend in a row. I had written an editorial saying the local high school should have invested in shops, not a new theatre. #bcpoli #bced

Alexander Brown: No, Tim Hortons isn’t suddenly interested in hiring Canadians "That '10,000 people locally' includes foreign students and TFWs already in the country, with both groups on active and expired permits in the millions. And that’s not all." withoutdiminishment.com/p/alexander-br…

NEW COLUMN. Be afraid, be very afraid. Jason Kenney says an independent Alberta is one scary scene. #ableg #abpoli #yyc #Alberta #cdnpoli #AlbertaIndependence calgaryherald.com/opinion/column…

@mortimer_1 @SLN74849293 It makes total sense - if the gas is burned over there, it doesn’t count against our carbon emissions and helps us get to net zero! 🤪🤪🤪

The NDP wants to sell BC's natural gas to the world. And ban it in your home. The Minister of Housing sent a letter pressuring Vancouver City Council to ban natural gas. The Minister of Energy knew about it. But nobody thought that was a problem. They're championing LNG exports on the world stage while stripping energy choice from BC homeowners. #bcpoli

"As drafted, this bill allows the government of Canada to force companies to break encryption by inserting backdoors into their products, something Apple will never do." "...In other words, when you build a backdoor into an encrypted device, anyone can walk through. And because so much depends on encryption, we can't take that risk." —Erik Neuenschwander is Apple's Director of User Privacy

This person just got a PhD in human sexuality for a thesis about "How Queer Witches Heal Without Western Psychology" and why "magic" should be a "public health priority." From the abstract: "What can queer pagan liminal healing practices teach therapists and other practitioners? Investigating the dichotomies of clinical versus spiritual and history versus present, as well as the inherent liminality between queer memory and queer futurity, aid us in understanding the many subaltern patterns of queer witch healing that are created in the absence of support from mental health fields of practice."

Elizabeth May believes pensioners in Germany hang solar panels off of their balcony & plug their kitchen appliances into it directly to power them. This right here highlights the absurd & abysmal state of Canadian politics.

This is the paper that still has an “ESG reporter.”

There’s a “climate sector” now.

Safe to say it’s not because Ksi Lisims will be “decarbonized” LNG using huge amounts of hydro to liquefy it.

👀The security premium is real. Canada will announce a deal tomorrow to supply Germany with LNG shipped from the Ksi Lisims project in northwest BC. The buyer is Germany’s SEFE, the former Gazprom PJSC unit nationalized by the German government after the invasion of Ukraine.

I wish this was the reason. He’s leaving a rich man.

Rather rich for a man who built a majority by coaxing floor crossers into his government to lecture people about democracy and what the mandates people were elected upon are.

Now Suzuki’s a space expert too. I covered his descent into eco-propaganda, fish farming, “tar” sands etc. Bonus, my introduction to CBC style was in 2000, when I was depicted as a racist dupe in a hit piece fronted by Hanomansing.

Bigger bureaucracy, incompetence.

Witness what will probably be David Suzuki’s last time on CBC. I don’t this they appreciated his take on the Artemis mission.
