Alberta led the country in renewable growth — by A LOT — for years. Now investment has collapsed in the wake of provincial government actions. 2025 saw no new wind projects and very little solar. Corporate agreements, which funded 60% of projects, are down 99%.

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

Not *quite* a threat of invasion—when you drill down on exactly what's happening here—but clearly walking up to that line by way of *telling* Canada (not asking for a negotiation on the matter) that the United States will in the future violate Canadian sovereignty in ways that are currently illegal.
