There is still beauty in the world. (Frankfurt, Germany 📷 maxwiesenbach)

Not really a secret though, mostly manufactured excuses to get to the oil.

Let's support small Canadian businesses whenever possible!

Any political “leader” still selling the obviously false choice between #ClimateAction and “the economy” is just reminding us that they clearly don’t understand either the climate crisis OR the economy. Or they’re cynically hope that WE don’t understand the difference. Or both.

There is no political, economic or environmental case for even pretending to consider Northern Gateway pipeline. Mark Carney has given a huge with to Danielle Smith while reviving the environmental conflicts of Stephen Harper. This is a huge mistake. My latest. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Since when was the National Post so sensitive? Oh right, spin it to try and weaken us. Gotcha.

#Pinks #ProudBlue Hmmmm…. Just saying…. 🤔

This year's #Arctic sea ice freeze-up is clearly the latest on record for the Baffin Bay region (located between Greenland and the Canadian Arctic Archipelago). The extent of ice cover is a record low for the date there. Data from @nsidc.bsky.social at nsidc.org/data/seaice_...

“We found some of these toys will talk in-depth about sexually explicit topics, will offer advice on where a child can find matches or knives, act dismayed when you say you have to leave, and have limited or no parental controls,” the report said.”

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, I hope Albertans will remember that trans kids and teens are living breathing humans who just want to be themselves, without fear of hate and discrimination. Demonizing kids merely to score political points in some weird culture war is craven and cruel.

We have choices, America !

Similar situation with Venezuela.

I need to tell you what's happening right now.

“Methane emissions across the supply chain are a key indicator of poor environmental and operational practices in the fossil fuel industry. Reducing [them] in the energy sector is the most effective and rapid way to cut greenhouse gases in the short term.” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

OTTAWA – A Mi’kmaw hereditary chief is pleading for help from the public to return his chiefs jacket he lost in the Montreal airport last week.

Canadians, please share this on all your social apps, let’s find this jacket and have it returned. Lost at Montreal Airport.

This. This is why we can’t have nice things. #OntEd

This is interesting — a recent study of mode share (the % share of transportation trips by car, transit, walking, biking etc) relative to city size and income levels in almost 800 cities in 61 countries. Interesting results. HT @davidzipper.bsky.social www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Ecologist Suzanne Simard sought to understand why certain forests appeared to decline when paper birch trees were removed from stands of Douglas fir.

Tonight was a very bad night.

I am very sad for the ppl of the US today. This didn't need to end this way.

We are long past the time where denial is an option.

Pellets aren't the answer, especially not this way.

You've probably heard of Bill C-12 and C-2, but there's a slate of other bills that, when assembled together transformer style, could create a freedom repression machine that rivals the one south of the border. We broke down how it would work >> act.gp/4i9pU1b #Cdnpoli 📹 via leftiejane on IG

“Providing the homeless with a place to live may seem like a high cost for taxpayers. But the alternative, it turns out, is more costly, new research shows. Subsidized accommodation could actually be a bargain for the public, in purely economic terms.” Via @fastcompany

“Fred Rogers taught us that each individual child is special … and that the small, peaceful moments we share together have a huge impact,” elementary teacher Cindy Michelini writes in her first article for Edutopia. 🧡 Here’s her Mister Rogers–inspired approach to SEL: #SEL #EarlyChildhoodEducation

HOC Petition: Legislation requiring majority Canadian ownership & control of print, digital & other non-audio-visual news media, to protect Canadian sovereignty, ensure journalism integrity & guarantee that our media reflects Canadian priorities & values. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

Out of budget lockup. I recently wrote: "Ottawa imposes a 10 percent luxury tax on yachts... yet a family buying a semi in Scarborough pays the equivalent of 15 percent in [DCs] and land transfer taxes." Today the gov't addressed this by eliminating the luxury tax on yachts.

Canada has had record setting forest fires in the past 4 years and Carney’s solution is to pour billions into oil, nearly a billion into energy-wasting AI, and remove a climate cap. He’s murdering our children.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps. McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay. Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay. See the problem?

Know your rights when voting today.

These signs were not created by the real “No Kings” group. Don’t let deceptive messaging confuse or suppress your vote.

Please share widely!!!

Republicans are holding hungry Americans hostage. F*ck. Them. WE can take care of our neighbors. Join our Feeding America campaign to help families on SNAP! 1 dollar = 10 meals. Pass it on!!!

This would be an environmental disaster. Peatlands need to remain undisturbed, esp. in this age of rampant climate change. Dangling a carrot of much needed and long overdue infrastructure in order to gain approval is particularly slimy.

My thoughts are with the ppl of the US today. Crossing my fingers, toes that the elections are successful, fair, and bring more power against the oppressors.

State officials say they’re working to deliver updated poll books to all polling stations. If you see any attempts to interfere with voting, report them immediately. We’re monitoring in real time and will keep pushing updates throughout the day. Sorry, if we flood your timeline.
