TL;DR: Carbon taxes in Canada, such as the federal $80/tonne emissions price, are often criticized for raising costs. But we find that emissions pricing increases domestic food costs modestly—about 0.8%—with imports shrinking the overall impact on food prices to about 0.5%.

Netanyahu, Gallant, and Deif have all launched indiscriminate attacks against civilians and caused unimaginable human suffering. If the world does not uphold international law, we will descend into further barbarism. I agree with the ICC.

Goldman Sachs considère radiés ses 900 millions $ US investis dans Northvolt, selon le Financial Times. Québec y a mis 270 M$ et la Caisse de dépôt et placement 200 M$. La confiance affichée par le gouvernement Legault en septembre était moins là jeudi

Note that those who reject the genocide reports never bother to refute them. Evidence is meaningless to them. It's considered sufficient to just say the word antisemitism.
U.S. Senator John Fetterman@SenFettermanPA

What’s actually consistent is UN’s rank, pervasive antisemitism. I reject this report in its entirety. I look forward to voting for @RepStefanik to continue a strong and unapologetic pro-Israel position.

Our reporter in Gaza just filed a dispatch describing how his family has resorted to eating pet food, cooking with bug infested flour and paying exorbitant prices for rotten vegetables (when they are even available).
The Recount@therecount

Karine Jean-Pierre, when asked about international aid agencies saying Israel has failed to improve the humanitarian crisis in Gaza despite the U.S. previously warning military aid would be at risk: “Israel has taken steps to address the measures laid out in that letter.”

This clarifies that Bliden/Blinken/Sullivan/McGurk didn't support mass starvation of Palestinian civilians out of political necessity. Election is over & Biden has no political future. They did this because this is their preferred policy. They are the architects of these war crimes.
Barak Ravid@BarakRavid

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱Secretary of State Blinken has decided that there will be no change for now to military assistance to Israel following the deadline the U.S. gave Israel regarding the humanitarian situation in Gaza and that expires today, two U.S. officials said. The officials said Israel has taken important steps to address the U.S. concerns regarding the humanitarian situation in Gaza and stressed the U.S. wants to see more steps in the coming days

Animal welfare rarely enters national political discourse, but elections always have consequences for animals, and 2024 was no different — from the presidency to the local level: vox.com/2024-elections…

coda: i don't think i can stick around here (twitter) that much longer. the atmosphere here is absolutely rancid and i don't know where things are better but if i find out i'll drop in and let you know
великий комбинатор@grapesmoker

so yeah things are grim and they're probably only going to get grimmer. best case scenario is that all these people spend their time looting to acquire personal wealth, worst case scenario is something i don't want to talk about

Our new paper shows that net-zero is far from the end goal as the climate continues to evolve for centuries. Getting to net-zero as quickly as possible limits the damage we are doing to the climate. esd.copernicus.org/articles/15/13…

If Harris wins tomorrow night - or if Harris even appears *likely* to win key states - you will see @elonmusk and the MAGA crowd go full disinformation immediately. They will claim the election is being stolen. It will be coordinated and immediate. Realize this is coming.

I don’t think people appreciate the extent to which Arab and Muslims Americans are going to be scapegoated in the event of a Trump victory by liberals who think the extermination of Palestinians is just a policy disagreement.

Leah Greenberg says NO KINGS ❌👑
Rashida Tlaib is doing GOTV in Michigan. The Uncommitted movement are up on the air with anti-Trump ads. These folks deserved so much better from the party. But in spite of it all, they know how much is at stake and they're throwing in to fight against the fascist movement.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez@AOC

DETROIT, MICHIGAN: GOTV RALLY TONIGHT 🗳️ WITH THE ONE AND ONLY @RashidaTlaib 👑 AND THE GREAT @ShawnFainUAW 💪🏽 LET’S GO WIN THIS WHOLE DAMN BALLOT‼️ I’LL BE OPENING FOR LOS TIGRES DEL NORTE AFTERWARDS TOO 🎸

There are no "secondary streets" for Yonge St. Mt. Pleasant and Avenue Rd. are the only other North/South roads. Doug Ford simply wants bike lanes gone, despite the actual data, and study after study, showing the economic, health, environmental, and safety benefits of bike lanes.

Doug Ford@fordnation

Bike lanes belong on secondary streets, not clogging traffic on main roads. It’s time to get you moving again.

It's telling that there's been no outrage, and no pressure whatsoever on Trump to disavow, this unbelievably racist statement from a speaker at his MSG rally - which wasn't a joke or delivered by a comedian.
