Parliament of Canada petition to end First-Past-the-Post. Please sign! We can't solve the big problems while we are fighting each other. We need a political system that reduces authoritarianism and wild policy swings. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

I highly recommend this read from @billmckibben.bsky.social Clean, super-cheap, ag-friendly, oiligarch-free, low resource energy is really exciting. Hey, MB Hydro! Read this before building your $3B LNG burning backup plant. app.thestorygraph.com/books/d669e5... #EndFossilFuels

The MB government’s decision to support a new fossil gas-fired power plant—announced in today’s throne speech—is a major disappointment that undercuts its recent commitments to emissions reductions, affordability and economic development. Read our full response: climateactionmb.ca/new-provinci...

Manitoba is an extremely sunny and windy province. Our new special report shows how we can foster renewable energy to move away from fossil fuels: climateactionmb.ca/the-immense-...

Connecting some dots here... - 80+ countries call for a roadmap to phase out fossil fuels. - Many of which are building (Chinese-made) solar capacity. - Which is rapidly dropping in price and improving in efficiency. - Rendering our expensive oil a financial loser. #EndFossilFuels #NoMorePipelines

Watching Carney's APEC CEO Summit talking about how Canada would vastly increase (more than doubling) our LNG exports by 2040 was distressing. The costs of fossil fuel damage to climate and health are increasing. Ignoring that is bad economics. #EndFossilFuels #FossilFools #LNGisNotClean

Power (and water) for people, not billionaire oligarchs.

Sometimes it takes a chance encounter to make you remember why you fight so hard for this idea called Canada. Six brave young teens from Afghanistan reminded me of the need to fight the hate that is oozing over the border. Here is my latest. charlieangus.substack.com/p/angels-of-...

We are likely facing growing mental health problems due to property loss, evacuations, rising food costs, and general existential crises too. Saying we can't afford to clean up our act is indefensible. #EndFossilFuels #FossilFools

Will our political leaders wake up? For the health of our democracy we need Proportional Representation implemented. Premier David Eby has the power to change our voting system, without a referendum. Lets do it!!!

@aradwanski.bsky.social preview of Carney’s likely climate strategy confirms that Canada is, yet again, refusing to deal with the oil and gas sector, which generates around 1/3 of Canada’s emissions. Carney is gambling w Canada's economic future & he should know better. 🧵

The Longest Ballot has been a clever nuisance. Poilievre's response is anti-democracy. greenpartyprovencher.ca/longest-ball...

"The truth is that on a rapidly heating planet, a pragmatic approach means we are playing Russian roulette with all six barrels loaded. The only question is just how big a mess we will make when we pull the trigger" In case you missed it www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Telling a room full of really people, many who can see the direct results of climate change on their countries, that this is a hoax is the ultimate in gaslighting, from a government funded by O&G. #EndFossilFuels billmckibben.substack.com/p/the-stupid...

At the a River Heights MLA environment town all last night there were a few folks that expressed displeasure with EV Rebates. Think again. We are subsidizing O&G for $Bs every year a) making corporations wealthy(er) and b) making climate change worse and more costly. #EndFossilFuels

I'm pleased to join 20 other movement leaders in issuing this public invite to come on out this Saturday to DRAW THE LINE – for People, for Peace, for the Planet. ✊☮️🌎 👇 There are about 70 actions taking place across the country. Find the one closest to you here: drawtheline.world/canada?r=CA&...

From the @winnipegfreepress.com Sept 17, 2025. IEA says we need to spend $540B per year to ensure the climate crisis and environmental degradation gets far worse through 2050. We must do better. #EndFossilFuels

Note the date change of the Organic Week celebration. It is now September 27 Vimy Ridge Park 1 to 4 pm

If you are blaming the 2 percent of immigrants that arrive by small boat for all your problems, a long, hard, think might be in order

Our future wasn't even on the radar in the last federal election. But if we don't collectively deal with this threat, all the issues we face, from economy to healthcare, to immigration will be much more difficult. #EndFossilFuel

This among reports that airborne pollutants are linked to increasing rates of dementia. Building more O&G capacity, particularly in a world rushing to renewables, is killing us to feed corporate greed. #EndFossilFuels

This. Expanding fossil fuel development in an era of rapid, and cheaper, renewable deployment is lunacy. Especially considering recent reports on the health impacts of breathing forest fire smoke all summer. #EndFossilFuels

Another piece I’ve been working on for a while… many parts of North America used to burn as much (or even more) than present, but climate change is also making wildfires worse… so how do we explain this? I spoke to experts and dive into the details:

Manitoba has lost another summer in a forest fire smoke-induced haze. And yet the "EV's will never work in Manitoba" crowd (looking at you CPC MPs), have surrendered unconditionally to a grim future. You keep using that word "conserve" - I don't think you know what it means.

Calling Mr. Carney, Mr. Kinew and Ms. Smith. This is what a real Energy Superpower looks like. You are now in China's rear view mirror as they race ahead. #EndFossilFuels

Got this from our CPC MP Ted Falk today: Mr. Falk doesn't appear to have experience with EVs, but doesn't mind spreading misinformation on behalf of the O&G industry. While we breathe climate-change fuelled forest fire smoke all spring and summer.

The costs are going up and are going to keep going up. While our leaders talk about new pipelines and new wells. Mention it. Mention it until people understand how serious this is. We must not keep voting for an unsustainable future. www.nationalobserver.com/2025/07/29/n...

The smoke hurts my eyes. And my heart. I wrote some words. #climateweirding #climatechange #environment #WabKinew #MarkCarney greenpartyprovencher.ca/we-must-not-...

How much of global warming is human-caused? More than 100% How can that be? Doesn't climate change naturally too? Of course But according to natural factors--changes in the sun's energy, volcanic eruptions, natural cycles & more--the planet should be slowly cooling now. Instead, it's warming 😬

I thought this headline could use a little context. The background photo is from firesmoke.ca.

GPM was pleased to be at the Leg today supporting The Energy Efficiency Disclosure Act, introduced by independent MLA Mark Wasyliw (Fort Garry).

Elections Debate Commission decides at the last minute to remove Jonathan Pednault from the debate even though the Greens met the requirements. Shame on them. cpac.ca/leaders-tour... Too bad he didn't take questions but I suspect there is a lot going on he needs to attend to.

This is a strategic vote in the Winnipeg riding of Kildonan-St Paul. I guess SmartVoting is trying to tell us this with "Active Vote Split" in the top right corner. I argue that there is no strategic vote if there is no mathematical path.

And again, in Nanaimo Ladysmith, a truly possible strategic vote here where a strategic vote for Paul Manly makes a lot of sense.

While I appreciate what SmartVoting.ca is trying to do here, a vote for the Liberals in this Provencher is NOT a strategic vote. There is no mathematical path to a win for the Liberals even IF all the non-CPC parties were to vote Liberal. Know the numbers. Vote your values.

A visible vote split is starting to unfold across the country. The Bloc and the NDP have picked away at some Liberal leads in the country. FEDERAL SEAT PROJECTION LPC: 197 (220) CPC: 118 (87) BQ: 18 (19) NDP: 9 (14) GPC: 1 (3) PPC: 0 (0) April 16, 2025 | MOE: +/- 10 #cdnpoli #election #canada

And Sio Sands is looking to restart their silica extraction project in Southeast Manitoba (again). We can't keep doing this to our water and our valuable agricultural land. Sign the petition here: l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http...

Ted Falk's most recent mailer landed in my mailbox this week with a "Canada First" theme. There a few good ideas there that most parties seem to be aligned with. And there are a few big red flags about where the CPC is taking us. Here are my thoughts. greenpartyprovencher.ca/trump-like-t...

"Mr Trump has overturned Canadian politics as well as the international order. As a result, in the worldwide battle to protect a rules-based trading system, and to defend an international order based on respect for sovereignty, it is Canada that finds itself in the frontline."

Cutting "red tape" is good if we're talking about how to build more affordable housing or support family farms. But increasing our output of environment-and-planet killing fossil fuels? Not so much.

And none of them involve building more fossil fuel capacity.

There is no shortage of good ideas for disentangling Canada from the U.S. and investing in more resilient alternatives. What all of these ideas have in common is a foundational belief in and commitment to the public interest. New from me: www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc...

Climate change is an environmental issue – but it’s not only an environmental issue. It affects our health, and the economy. It impacts food, water, and resources. It contributes to geopolitical instability and even conflict. Here are the Canadian scientists who study this.

These are scary times for vulnerable people. The Green Party of Manitoba calls on Manitobans and Canadians to challenge the distressing and harmful rhetoric of both the Manitoba Progressive Conservatives and the federal CPC regarding 2sLGBTQIA+ rights. greenpartylacdubonnet.ca?p=232

The Green Party of Manitoba will not run a candidate in the Transcona byelection, out of respect for the recent passing of Transcona MLA and Minister Altomare.
