No lifting of Tanker Ban “As if First Nations rights can be wiped away with one fed, prov MOU. The truth is that Canada can create all the MOUs…that they want, but chiefs are united when it comes to approving large national projects on FN lands.” Gift 🎁 www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/d7d9f21...

I was wondering about that…

The Exxon Valdez disaster is a warning why the Tanker Ban should remain: "It's spectacularly dangerous to conceive of putting a pipeline to northern B.C. & hauling that oil across the Gulf of Alaska to Asian markets," [Steiner] said. "It should not see the light of day” www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

They don’t go after you directly anymore like that. They go after your taxes and finances and family. Always. Now with an edit :)

A monumental loss for the Liberal Party of Canada 🇨🇦, and for Canadians who believe in science and good governance. #cdnpoli

We made Christmas cake! It was quite a process! I gathered all the dried fruit & soaked them in rum for 24 hours. My sister & her care worker (who knows a lot about baking) made the cake. Then my husband and I wrapped the cake in brandy-soaked cheesecloth! We’re going to taste the results in Dec 😋🎄

I want to like Carney (I really do), but this is a catastrophically bad idea. We do not need more money dumped into fossil fuels. We need more solar, more EVs, etc

Why is PM Carney investing heavily in Fossil Fuels?? "Oversupply of oil could create glut of 4m barrels a day, says energy watchdog" www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable.

Thanks!

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

Zohran wins! As a Muslim immigrant, this moment hits deep. A proud day for New York & for everyone who believes in what America can be. His victory isn’t just political; it’s historic. Now begins the real test: turning hope into action and making the greatest city truly great. Wishing him success 🇺🇸
