And a majority govt no less. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Canadians are getting stupider. Don’t forget the only reason Liberals won federally is because of Quebec. Only Quebeckers switched from BQ to Liberal. PC support rose in the rest of Canada. That’s why PP was allowed to stay in the party. We’re not far from the US

Poilievre tied directly to Enbridge, Pathways Alliance, Koch Industries & the Cdn Gas Association.
It’s not surprising for a career politician who has voted against the environment 400 times in 20 years Poilievre has capitulated to every one of Big Oil’s demands

Pierre Poilievre is Big Oil’s useful idiot

With an inner circle stacked with fossil fuel lobbyists, it’s no wonder that Pierre Poilievre voted against the environment 400 times.

Speed cameras save lives. Do we really need more reason to keep them?

Upon much reflection, I am comfortable in saying that Pierre Poilievre is the most petty, small, arrogant, and spiteful Canadians I can think of in my 52 years of life thus far.

How he got to where he is is a mystery to me.

Humanity is experiencing its fastest-ever energy transformation, as the rapid rise of renewables outpaces the decades-long shifts from muscle, wood, coal, and oil—benefiting us all.

Climate action can feel slow – but the fastest energy leap in history has begun

Weaning ourselves off fossil fuels is glacially slow – isn’t it? This pessimistic narrative doesn’t stack up against evidence of very rapid change in the real world.

This Thanksgiving weekend, I am thankful to:

1. Have been born and raised in Canada.

2. Have been raised by good, humble, hard-working people who raised me to be open-minded, to think for myself, live by my morals & ethics, and to know right from wrong - and live accordingly.

Sunday night!

Bruce “Spanky” McAllister shut down one students mic during the “Alberta Next” panel so that young man couldn’t get his message across…

Well…
