The article states that their “decarbonization ambitions remain the same”… and I’m gonna suggest that’s probably true but tells us a lot more about what their actual decarbonization ambitions were in the first place… 🙄 www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Important discussion paper dropped today from ECCC on how to strengthen carbon markets in Canada, as part of the 2026 federal pricing benchmark review of federal and provincial industrial carbon pricing systems. Comments due by Jan. 30. www.canada.ca/en/environme...

Watch for Carney to get out in front of this and cancel the EV mandate before Poilievre even has a chance to come up with a good verb-the-noun slogan around this one… www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

If memory serves me correctly, wasn’t it George Bush that we all made fun of for suggesting exactly this? www.bbc.com/future/artic...

Whoa. 4800 MW of nukes proposed for the Peace region in Alberta. iaac-aeic.gc.ca/050/evaluati...

I’m not crying, you’re crying.

Excellent article out this morning.

I will vote for any party (that isn’t led by Poilievre or Bernier) who will eliminate the stupid 100% tariff Canada imposed on Chinese EVs…so I can get a BYD.

Usually the imminent loser doesn’t trot this line out until about a week before the actual election. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

Important new consultation that no one seems to be talking about. Maybe because it will only matter after an imminent federal election, but have your say. www.canada.ca/en/environme...

It is well known, of course, that US banks are excellent at stopping fentanyl.

Great article by Judy Rebick.

…during a call … with the other premiers and the PM he also advocated for the federal government to "immediately approve the Energy East pipeline”. Is there a mystery Energy East pipeline application sitting around waiting for approval, that no one knows about?? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Notice how the chart in this article has basically the same slope no matter which party controls the White House. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

What we aren’t talking about enough is how this would be an excellent time for Jagmeet Singh to resign and see if someone could step up to generate some excitement on Canada’s left that could actually penetrate with the broader voting public.

I don’t know a lot about her, but listening to this interview made me think she’s someone I could really like. youtu.be/x33Q2ApZpw0

Since the Gov't of Canada enacted the Impact Assessment Act in Aug. 2019, not one project going through the federal process (not counting projects substituted to BC) has managed to submit an Impact Statement... until today! Dig into the Crawford Nickel project. iaac-aeic.gc.ca/050/evaluati...

Amazing outcome yesterday in the Wolastoqey claim for Title in New Brunswick. Congrats to the Wolastoqey Nation! And also congrats to my brilliant wife Renée Pelletier who is their lead counsel in the case! ❤️

Guess who isn't planning to spend any of its own money building Pathways? 🙄 www.theglobeandmail.com/business/ind...

This is a potentially important new mechanism for First Nations to exercise their sovereignty on major projects. But the details will determine how meaningful these agreements will be. I encourage my Indigenous contacts to get involved. letstalkimpactassessment.ca/lets-talk-in...

Fun fact: we need more critical minerals for the clean energy transition, but in the 4 years since the new federal Impact Assessment Act came into force, there are 13 mining proposals that trigger a federal review - only 3 are critical minerals, with 2 coal, 1 oil sands, 7 gold (2 incl copper).

The SCC will be releasing its much anticipated decision in Reference re: Impact Assessment Act (aka is the federal impact assessment act constitutional) next Friday, October 13: decisions.scc-csc.ca/scc-csc/news...
