It’s great to see
@theenergymix.com
share our Oil and Gas Dir. Janetta McKenzie’s analysis on AB’s emissions performance. With talk of “decarbonized barrels” of oil in exchange for a new pipeline, it’s important to be clear on the industry’s track record on emissions and how far it still has to go.

A new study finds that “promoting active travel modes, particularly cycling, may be associated with better brain health and lower dementia risk.” With rising healthcare costs and an aging population, it's another reason that politicians should stop ripping up bike lanes.

Harper’s not Trump’s friend—but he chairs the same far-right alliance Trump belongs to. While private ties are denied, the political overlap is real. Silence on Jan 6, praise for populism, & quiet alignment with Orbán’s IDU. That’s why we need CBC—to track the threads.

“It’s become very clear that the free market no longer works as it should when it comes to housing. At the end of the day, landlords would rather have an apartment sit empty than give someone a break. More social housing and stronger rent controls are needed.
