I regret to inform you that the Globe and Mail's opinion section is at it again. This time it's the Fraser Institute's Kenneth Green getting a byline -- and using it to spread any number of obvious falsehoods. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/com...

The Colbert interview Paramount, Ellison, Trump & GOP don't want you to see: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiTJ...

In today’s @EdmontonJournal 1103 words from Chris Varcoe (@chrisvarcoe.bsky.social ) about the province buying new water bombers to help fight the increasing number of wildfires.

Lowell Green was a racist demagogue who used his CFRA radio show as a soapbox to rant about immigrants and target racialized communities in Ottawa Contrary to Ottawa Mayor Mark Sutcliffe's eulogy here, Lowell wasn't proud of Canada – he wrote an entire book about how it wasn't white enough for him

In case you thought otherwise, climate change is still an issue. www.realclimate.org/index.php/su...

Thinking of buying a cow?

And in Japan you cannot own a car unless you can prove to the authorities you can store it in a private parking bay or facility OFF STREET

Proportional Representation: here's an explainer. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_S0P...

This is the best speech, just from a pure rhetoric perspective - its sophistication and persuasiveness - that I've seen a politician deliver in a good long while. Really recommend watching or reading the whole thing.

Lots going on right now, but this is worth repeating: the planet will keep heating up and the climate will keep breaking down until we phase out fossil fuels. We should all want to phase out fossil fuels as soon as possible, I think!

Danielle Smith is a traitor.

Folks, new fossil-fuel propaganda alert: "make clean energy cheap" now means "build out more fossil gas." I am actually not joking.

Here's something you didn't 't read about in the pages of a National Post paper. www.cbc.ca/news/science...

Not gonna tell you that I told you so. But I told you so...

What the KENNEDY Center used to be… Remember that time Aretha Franklin performed at the 2015 Kennedy Center Honors, paying tribute to Carole King, who co-wrote “You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman,” and it brought a tear to Obama’s eye and everyone to their feet? And Carole King’s reaction. Wow.

Let’s get vigorous. “Canadian English is a rich part of our heritage and helps define who we are as a nation, but it’s under threat from – strangely enough – our own federal government.”

Hey, Albertans. Here's how you can stop coal mining in the Rockies. www.coalpetition.ca

I started reviewing the Alberta Next report by looking at their polling results. The numbers in the sample table don't add up. Can anyone make it make sense? If not, I'm not sure how we take the analysis seriously. 🔗 open.alberta.ca/dataset/2919...

My Christmas wish is that one day our sidewalks will be as wide as our trucks.🎄🎅

There’s nothing religious about the GOP in the United States. It’s 100% about racism, power and corruption.

But you don't really care about climate change, do you? #ClimateCrisis #TaxMyCarbon

Pierre Poilievre open.substack.com/pub/deadder/...

Looks like I'm done with Twitter.

In last Friday’s @EdmontonJournal Don Braid (@DonBraid) applauds the new pipeline agreement and Carney’s backtracking on climate action. In doing so, Braid proves he doesn’t give a rat’s ass about climate change, ...

Zillow, the country’s largest real estate listings site, has quietly removed a feature that showed the risks from extreme weather for more than one million home sale listings on its site.

With the world heating up [and more pedestrians being killed], why are more SUVs being sold? “It’s the industry that has driven the demand through huge marketing & advertising campaigns in recent years. SUVs offered the industry a simple way of charging more for a vehicle that does the same thing.”

Here’s something that’s really important for everyone to understand. If we design our cities just for cars, they fail everyone, including drivers. If we design our cities with many great CHOICES in how to get around, they work better for everyone, including drivers. Spread the word.

Folks have been telling me they’ve noticed I’ve gotten “a lot more political” on social media this year. Of course I have. The circumstances have gotten nightmarishly worse, and the consequences of inaction and staying silent infinitely more obvious. Everyone needs to get “a lot more political.”

CANADA: May correctly calls out Poilievre for stealing from the Trump/Project 2025 playbook again. Oh, and it’s ANOTHER good day to remind everyone that Poilievre STILL hasn’t done the normal security check, still hasn’t received the standard security clearance that EVERYONE in his position gets.

When was the last time anyone at the BBC had to resign for misrepresenting a leftwinger?

So you can do a bicycle kick goal, huh? That’s nice. Can you do one in a snowstorm? #CPL #Canada

This is seriously one of those things that probably blows the minds of most people outside of the United States. A “swearing in” should obviously be completely ceremonial, and should have no legal weight at all. THE ELECTION GIVES THE WINNER THE ROLE, not the Speaker. It really makes no sense.
