Priceless.

@maxfawcett.bsky.social: The Energy Transition's New Gear "They still don’t get it...🇨🇦 biz and opinion leaders are still acting as though the world hasn’t changed — or worse, that it’s changed in ways that are somehow favourable to the oil and gas industry" 🤦‍♂️ www.nationalobserver.com/newsletters/...

I'm sure "there's one thing that's worse than being uneducated" is going to go over well with his disproportionately uneducated supporter base. #cdnpoli

Pierre Poilievre seems to be labouring under the belief that federal gasoline taxes are in the neighbourhood of 25 cents per litre. The federal gas tax is actually 10 cents per litre, and if you include the GST on that it nets out to 10.5 cents.

The federal government suspended its 10 cent per litre gas tax in the face of soaring oil prices. Will the UCP suspend its own 13 cent gas tax -- and if it doesn't, will all the anti-tax folks out there (hello, Pierre Poilievre! Come on down, CTF) call them out on it? #abpoli #cdnpoli

#cdnpoli alt take: Or… we could let the oil situation accelerate electrification and use the $billions saved by not cutting gas taxes to support families hurt by fuel inflation thru a boost in the CCB and GST credits.

“We need to generate more cheap electricity” “No, not like that” We’re likely to get some serious renewables abundance this summer, but there’s no pleasing some people…

For all those still feeling the moon joy—Artemis II was brought to you by public schools and publicly funded science. Copy that! 👩‍🚀🚀💕 *All four astronauts went to public schools!

Unbelievable stuff from the Washington Post on behalf of Jeff Bezos today.

Glad to see the Australian government on board. Massive milestone today with Bowen acknowledging EV growth is already offsetting the oil crisis. Increasing reserves while demand falls makes no sense. Now for a solar carport mandate! Charge baby charge. ☀️⚡ #Bettrification #EVs

It’s all dirtier than it looks

In a first last month, renewables supplied more power to the U.S. than natural gas, a milestone in the shift to clean energy.

Wait I thought these guys like coal? *BESSENT: A CHINESE EV IS 'A COAL-POWERED VEHICLE' [as an aside, if you could hypothetically swap all US ICE vehicles for BEVs charged off coal plants, you'd reduce emissions because of efficiency gains]

The American president counts Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-Un as his friends while denouncing the Pope.

My latest newsletter: the energy transition is kicking into an even higher gear, and it will eventually leave Canada's oil and gas industry in the dust. When will its op-ed writers and political proxies wake up to the threat they're facing? #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/newsletters/...

Those of us who advocate for federalism in Quebec are obligated to help our confrères in Alberta.

An important provocative read for your Tuesday morning. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli #SenateofCanada

There are still a whole bunch of AI and tech guys who just cannot understand why their industry is quickly growing more hated than fossil fuel and tobacco companies

Chatted with @maxfawcett.bsky.social who says recipe for a Brexit situation exists if pro-Canada forces don't rally hard on referendum Also dismissed claims that anti-sovereignty is "communism" + adds why leaving would turn us into the Rob Schneider of countries podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/t...

From @metzger.bsky.social, I am HOWLING.

Hey, look at Substack promoting Andrew Tate as the #1 new bestseller. The company's amoral leadership & backers will platform anyone, even ludicrously toxic rapists & human traffickers.

new communities like... *checks notes* women

"It's way too serious for people to play it safe." Is Alberta sleepwalking into separation? @maxfawcett.bsky.social says everyday citizens better wake up and take action before it's too late. Thoughts? 👀 FULL: rtrj.info/041326Max 🎧 FULL: rtrj.info/041326 #abpoli #cdnpoli youtu.be/UE8puQIWDJA?...

Get up, stand up, stand up for Canada. "This is not the time for half-measures, for staying quiet, or for keeping your powder dry. Use that powder. You can be sure the people on the other side — and especially the ones enabling and amplifying their arguments online — are going to be using theirs."

Come on people. We all know that Trump was dressed as a doctor.

i will vote for any candidate who offers up this slogan

Memo to the federalist forces in Alberta: stop fucking around and start fighting. #cdnpoli #abpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/04/13/o...

This is a great illustration of @larryglickman.bsky.social's point about how "backlash" framing lets the right play the victim.

The outgoing CPC comms director posted this over in the bad place, and....what is that last line supposed to mean? Did she forget the word "worth" after "always"?

Never forget. #cdnpoli

Péter Magyar victory speech: "We want to make a country where no one is persecuted because they think differently or because someone loves in a different way to others." He may not have campaigned as a liberal. But this is a huge change of direction and rhetoric from Orbán’s anti-LGBTQ+ crusade.

cybertruck owners are achieving levels of unfuckability scientists previously believed impossible

Guy Fieri was hamming it up with Andrew and Tristan Tate at UFC last night? He can get bent too.

historic rejection of JD Vance

This is what Times Square will look like when Congress or a cheeseburger finally does its job

I cannot even begin to imagine what he's going to post.....I literally cannot fathom what he'll come up with

Kudos to these Swalwell staffers for demanding accountability. Hey @cnn.com — you ever wonder why GOP staffers never do this?

Congratulations to Rory McIlroy, who becomes the first person in the 21st century who doesn't have multiple DUIs to win consecutive Masters

RORY GOES BACK-TO-BACK! Rory McIlroy is the 2026 Masters champion finishing 12-under through the tournament! #TheMasters

It’s a great night for the Leftist chatterati

this is a boring take but if we want this from a Dem President in 2029 we need to deliver the type of huge legislative majority Magyar just achieved and not the razor-thin one that Biden was forced to work with.

If Hungary can free itself from the rule of a corrupt Russian agent, the USA can too.

ok NOW i bet Zelenskyy will thank JD Vance

Hungarians deserve every congratulations for giving Peter Magyar a bigger margin than Orban has ever gotten in all of his rigged elections - and this within the system that Orban rigged. Magyar now has a constitutional majority to undo Orban's constitutional prison and govern as a democratic leader.

I’ve seen enough. God is 1) real 2) nonbinary 3) primarily motivated by a deep hatred of JD Vance

Mon dieu

The polls have closed in Hungary - and it appears that turnout will approach 80%, a post-communist record.

holy shit this is funny. the worst accounts on twitter are melting down rn

We have entered the “you can’t kill me if I commit suicide” phase of American Decline
