Woah! Look at that jump. People are beginning to notice @avilewis.ca. press.liaisonstrategies.ca/federal-trac...

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”

#VictoriaBC MP @wgreaves.bsky.social ran on a platform that mentioned climate change 28 times, and did not mention pipelines once. Stephen Guilbeault did something significant about Carney's betrayal. Will Greaves can too. Everyone has choices to make. #yyj #cdnpoli #bcpoli

Both of our former environment & climate ministers are speaking up strongly and critically regarding the direction of the current federal government on climate—even though it is their party. That to me shows integrity and leadership. Thank u @cathmckenna.bsky.social & @stevenguilbeault.bsky.social

"The Liberals under Carney have repealed the consumer carbon tax, eliminated the EV sales mandate, signalled the end of the oil and gas emissions cap and reversed the Liberal promise to end fossil fuel subsidies." #cdnpoli #climatecrisis #yyj @willgreavesmp.bsky.social

Firing a democratically elected school board for refusing to use hundreds of thousands in public funds to put police in schools was always a massive overreach of provincial power. This ruling only confirms how tainted the Ministry’s decision was. I congratulate SD 61’s trustees for their victory.

Site C dam being named after John Horgan is actually quite fitting for BC NDP, a government that campaigns left & shamelessly governs right. John Horgan Dam and Generating Station David Eby involuntary mental health facility Mary Polak TMX pipeline expansion project www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

“There is no scenario in which these policy shifts do not increase both Canada’s domestic emissions and, even more, downstream carbon pollution elsewhere through the expansion of oil and gas exports.” Any climate-concerned Liberal voters feeling some “buyer’s remorse”? #cdnpoli #canadastrong ?

"Parking is another major blind spot in anti-bike-lane ­arguments. Vast portions of urban land are devoted not to homes, parks, businesses or public gathering spaces, but to simply storing inactive private vehicles." Should drivers be entitled to use public land to store personal property? #yyj

1/ This announcement marks the Carney government’s official surrender to the oil and gas lobby.

It should go without saying that diversifying Alberta’s exports would mean supporting any export besides oil and gas — and reducing emissions requires emitting less of them. My column on today's announcement for @nationalobserver.com

"Climate change is the reason to freak out, and ideally, in a constructive way, by doing something about it. And we do know what to do about it. We have the knowledge and technology to go very, very far away from using fossil fuels." www.cbc.ca/news/science...

I spoke to the Trudeau-era environment minister who resigned from cabinet under Carney. Steven Guilbeault has a warning about Carney’s latest environment-trampling proposals — ones he agrees would be worse than Harper’s. Here’s the latest on the plan that would “eviscerate” environmental laws:

Really appreciate Natalie reaching out for this important piece:

Mental health is part of your health. It should be part of our publicly-funded healthcare system. What do we think is worth spending money on in this country? Why does this government have billions available for major projects and for bullets and bombs but not for projects that benefit all of us?

Great to see Avi Lewis calling out Carney’s liberal doublespeak on Democracy Now #cdnpoli #canada

As a result of the illegal war on Iran, Canada’s oil giants are raking in billions they didn’t earn and don’t deserve. It’s time to stop war profiteering and return money back to Canadian families and communities. Take action: 350.org/canada/theyp...

WOW, very harsh words for Prime Minister Carney from former Liberal Minister of Foreign Affairs Lloyd Axworthy. Very damning indeed. Forget the Rhetoric, Watch What They Do: Canada’s Liberals Move Right open.substack.com/pub/lloydaxw...

Yes @wgreaves.bsky.social as another of your constituents I would also like to know your answer to this question. And how is your government planning to address and reduce income inequality? So far Carney seems set on letting the rich get richer, while the rest of us struggle.

I am a family doctor and public health researcher, and I oppose Carney’s cruel cuts to refugee healthcare. I join healthcare workers in 9 cities across the country today to demand access to publicly funded universal healthcare for ALL regardless of status. #NoCutsToCare

Striking that the Liberals and Conservatives offer the same response to pain at the pump: siphon money out of the public purse instead of Big Oil’s profits.

Imagine going down as the "progressive" NDP premier that let his government fall because he is opposed to principles of reconciliation. (As he was when DRIPA first passed) How much more can he disappoint us and, I imagine and hope, so many in his own caucus?

BC was supposed to be different. A climate leader. A progressive counterweight to fossil fuel politics. But today, it’s becoming something else: a case study in petrostate politics. 🧵1/ www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...

“We are seeing more evidence every day that Mark Carney is a conservative, and that there are now two conservative parties in the House of Commons.” Read my full statement on MP Gladu’s floor crossing here: www.ndp.ca/news/ndp-sta...

Today I joined Indigenous women’s organizations condemning the Liberal government's appalling $7 billion cuts to Indigenous Services Canada and Crown-Indigenous Relations, two ministries that are already grossly underfunded. (🧵 1/5)

But like, genuinely wondering if “Liberal Party” means anything lmao

Since the start of the Industrial Revolution, fossil fuel has meant Freedom, Power. Now, thanks to DJT, those meanings are shifting fast--it means Scarcity, Peril. You want to feel safe now, you turn to the sun And that psychological shift is enormous! billmckibben.substack.com/p/oil-and-ga...

The President of the United States is openly threatening to commit genocide against 90 million people. Prime Minister Carney: if there was ever a moment to denounce this illegal war, withdraw your support, and call for accountability for war crimes—it’s now.

(1/) Prime Minister Carney’s silence while Trump openly threatens genocide against millions of people is abhorrent. Real leadership isn’t complicity and cowardice, it means speaking out against Trump’s horrific threats, which channel the rhetoric of fascist dictatorships.

Editorial: Here’s why Avi Lewis is the wrong choice to lead the NDP – by a centrist Liberal

I hope Avi and his loved ones take comfort in the fact that they gave Stephen an incredible last gift in his final moments: the gift of a burst of hope that his family and descendants will see a better world, thanks to a flame that he passed down to his son.

Thrilled to see Avi elected. I just made a donation to help the party rebuild. #cdnpoli #canada #ndp

Prime Minister Carney, silence is not an option when Trump attacks sovereign nations in the Americas. Canadians expect you to stand up for human rights, international law, and against the bullying of smaller nations by a rampaging superpower.

When you elect a progressive, the sky doesn't fall. That's why I'm on team @avilewis.ca. (🧵1/4)

Instead of punching down at hardworking newcomers, we need to tax the rich and fully fund the universal public healthcare system that everyone in Canada deserves.

Hey folks! Just 5 days left to renew or take out a membership in the NDP if you want to vote in the current leadership race. ICYMI 👇

Tbh this just saved Carney from himself, if he was still planning to accept (as he said he would) after giving that speech. It would have looked like he immediately did something unpopular to appease Trump after giving a speech that suggested he plans to have more backbone than that.

🧵Canadian friends: if you want to vote for the next leader of the NDP, you have *just one week left* to buy a (cheap) party membership. After that, there will be a big English debate and lots of media coverage, but it will be too late to have a say. Only members can vote for leader. link below:
