The mayor called the water main “a ticking time bomb”-until they replace the ENTIRE line.. original sections will be at risk of failure. This is a very unfortunate situation and, in my opinion, everyone is doing their best to manage it. #calgary
NEW: City of Calgary officials say last night’s water main break is “catastrophic” along the same feeder main that ruptured in June 2024. The break has been found by crews and water flow has stopped.

Alberta's dismantling of its 20-year-old flaring limit after companies blew through the limit two years in a row, with no objections from the federal government, is an example of the challenges Canada faces in reconciling its environmental commitments with a renewed focus on economic growth.
Surely even Liberal supporters can see the pattern by now: The Alberta & Cdn govts tell anyone who will listen that Alberta/Canada has "the best environmental standards in the world." The reality is that they are not fit for purpose, not implemented, or not enforced.

6 years today the first COVID case was identified in a man in Wuhan marking the beginning of a global pandemic that changed the world. We are way less prepared today to face another pandemic than we were back then. This fact makes me sad.

I'm old.

If you're not, listen to this.

Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.

Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.

It's literally never been more important.
