Most Canadians have no idea what the risks are because mainstream media either doesn’t cover climate issues or “both sides” any relevant information into incoherence
Or they describe an existential crisis as a political game
The risks are to literally all ppl, not voter blocks

Mark Carney’s first major test? Most Canadians see the Canada–Alberta MOU as a pragmatic compromise, not a sellout.
But risks remain — especially among younger and progressive voters.

One of the most common replies in any discussion of universal basic income is "but how do we pay for it?" and not once do those same people ever question the costs incurred by not doing UBI. We spend $1.5 trillion every year on the costs of child poverty alone. Poverty ain't free, folks. WE ALL PAY.

Renewables, green energy, electrification of transport!! WE CANT DO THAT. IT WILL COST US MONEY!! We prop up fossil fuel by Billions every year.
If we stop that and prop up Renewable, electrified transportation and clean energy, then it won’t be expensive! Fossil fuels will be.

The problem with this is that they're both elected officials with real power that they refuse to use on behalf of workers, so they engage in performative solidarity instead of living up to their half of the inside-outside strategy.

Today @juliedabrusin.bsky.social was grilled on the Canada-Alberta MOU and would not say whether a new oil pipeline would increase emissions.
Is she terrified of the PMO? How hard is it to acknowledge reality and try to spin it along the lines of 'yes so we'll have to find GHG cuts elsewhere'
