The agreement *literally* includes a massive powerline -- the intertie between BC and Alberta -- that would enable the addition of more renewable energy on both sides of the border.
C'mon, man.
C'mon, man.

Mark Carney managed to trade a pipeline that will never get built for meaningful progress on industrial carbon pricing and electricity interties — both of which will get more wind and solar built.

The method to Mark Carney’s madness
The memorandum of understanding with Alberta might look like surrender. Look closer

Premier David Eby, speaking now, cites PM Carney's comments from earlier this week that pipeline would have to have agreement from B.C. and First Nations.
"This project does not have the support of Coastal First Nations," he says. Adds no proponent, no route, no money.

Ok, this thing with Dani Smith and PMMC. It's not a betrayal by the PM. He's not working with the enemy. The NDP claiming so only hurts the trust they've already lost with Canadians. The stars that would need to align to approve a pipeline? I can't see it. If anything, this is about electricity.

Remember this. Put "you are not immune to propaganda" on repeat in your head. Most people don't check their sources, and there are a lot of accounts that look left-leaning but share dodgy info. Be careful out there.

This 'piggy' thing is interesting. I'm seeing a lot of posts from men saying that they've had an unexpected visceral reaction to the comment. Why? Because you've had no real proof of what men can be like to women. It's all been rumour. Now you've heard it with your own ears. #BelieveWomen

The narrative that we are being sold that our children's safety is somehow threatened by trans people participating in all aspects of public life as their authentic selves is the exact same bullshit that was peddled about queer folks 30 years ago. It was a lie then and it's a lie now.

So is Mark Carney going to go along with the suspension of human rights by MAGA government in Alberta?
You cant' do nation-building by allowing an autocratic government to suspend the charter rights of citizens.
Just say no Mark.
it's pretty straightforward.

PM Carney on Poilievre’s economic plan: "We can retreat, slash the deficit, hope for the best—wait and see if the trickle-down ever comes. That will gut the support to the most vulnerable Canadians just when they need that support the most. And it won’t grow our economy."
