In case you need to know how Authoritarians sweep into power in a Democracy and adapt to a new manner of governance... Read this. Based on the European experience, ⁷but applicable to the USA and Canada today. Trump's Project 2025 and the IDU use this method.

The only people who believe you can keep producing oil and rely on carbon capture are those who want to keep producing oil. 14/22
Carbon removal hype is becoming a dangerous distraction
Corporations and nations are touting plans to suck greenhouse gases out of the air. But the crucial priority this decade is slashing emissions.

A thread on the MOU.

MOST IMPORTANT: Carney's move signals to the rest of Canada, and the world, that it's OK to keep building more fossil fuel projects.
Other countries will use this to justify doing the same.

Our children are watching, to see if we care about their futures. Do we? 1/22

Note to all the Albertans working towards separation... put the tires back on your house and drag it down to Louisiana.

Tight race. Polling is within the Margin of Error.
This seat is winnable with a proper voter turnout.

Alberta has used the Not-withstanding-clause four times in the last month to remove Charter protections.
To change the Charter requires a two-thirds super majority of Provinces representing 50% of the population.
Including the NWC in legislation should require a similar super majority of MLA's.

Great story behind the Guess Who’s iconic ‘American Woman’

It was the first time a Canadian band had a #1 hit in the US.

It was an anti-Vietnam war song.

It was created because Randy Bachman was tuning his guitar.

Very cool.

Professor Snyder lays out why the “Peace Plan” isn’t peace at all:

1. Encourages nuclear proliferation
2. Breaks the basic rule of int'l order—respecting borders
3. Rewards the aggressor, risking wider regional conflict
4. Ignores reconstruction
5. Process excluded Ukraine and its allies entirely
We have a US administration trying to bully Ukrainians into accepting Russia’s proposal that their sovereignty be undone. Aside from the naked injustice of this, there are five basic practical reasons why it would make the world far more dangerous.

Let’s stop calling it the ‘notwithstanding clause’.
In practice, it’s actually the neofascist proviso.

Have you heard of “The Populist Playbook?”

A few years ago, I posted what I still consider one of my most important messages.

It was about “The Populist Playbook” that I’ve watched play out often over my 33+ years of city planning.

Since then, it’s only gotten worse.

Do the steps sound familiar?
