Oh man! I would love to see that!! What’s it called?

Okay, but then what? We get stuck with a Conservative government that scraps all regulation, environmental law, and gives the keys to the country over to private corporate interests? Yay.

PP has never had a real job and has even less education job or awareness of how the world works. That sucks.

I hear you. I voted for her because there is no alternate. Alberta is a broken place.

It’s true.

But here in Alberta the economy is completely tied to the oil industry and so any party that supports any regulation of that sector can’t win long term.

Alberta is a unique place. Our entire social infrastructure is woven into the industry.

The NDP’s aim needs to be federally.

When Canadians realize there is no way out of the food, water, climate crisis they will stop preaching about “economic growth” and remember that unions and state social security systems matter.

The @ndp.ca can position themselves into an epic comeback if they allow contributions from key sectors.

I have spoken to Heather McPherson and she’s really good on key issues, and Avi Lewis is brilliant and has the ability to really mobilize the younger generations.

So hopefully the combo of those two is energizing for the party no matter who leads.

The reason some smart folks mock and laugh at many environmentalists or animal rights activists is because our righteous claims lack specificity — and thus fail to diagnose the actual systemic problem.

If we want to (rightly) complain about the problem be specific about causes.

Yeah, but not at the scale of industrial food systems, and not in ways that collapse whole biospheres.

Scale and systemic structure matters re: cumulative impact.

It’s not subsistence hunting that’s driving mass extinction but habitat loss.

“If we turn that same curiosity, humility and care to the past, what might it teach us about ourselves, our world, where we’ve come from and where we’re headed?”

“We” who? Are uncontested tribes in the Amazon or African villagers in southern Congo causing this damage?

No. Consumers in modern industrial capitalism as living large and driving planetary changes with their lifestyles and economic systems.

Please be more specific with your “we”.

Again, it’s not “humans” that are the problem, but instead very specific ways of living and modes of production that disproportionally impact the biosphere.

Diagnose the problem specifically please. Blaming humans generically only spreads fear and self-hatred without offering possibility of change.

I think you mean “capitalism driven by fossil fuels and consumerism” has turned all of the planet’s…..

Please be specific about diagnosing the cause. Blaming generic “human activity” does nothing to help increase awareness (only fear).

I think centrists and lefties need to start organizing now to bring the Liberals down. This MOU was too much. Opening up the northwest coast to takers is FAR TOO MUCH.

I think there’re be an election sooner rather than later. He’s a conservative on Liberal clothing.

“This is infrastructural; it is a kind of existential scaffolding that gives us a point of reference (there are echoes of relativism, or the search for / lack of an anchoring throughout his work).”

“Moriarty’s model – that we grow up in a story, a personal story – suggests that we are all creatures of invention, products of abstract and (in a sense) arbitrary notions of existence and why we are here, or how we have come to be where we are.”

Thank you for being a person of such integrity and high ethical character!!!

The people of Laurier—Sainte-Marie are so lucky to have you represent them.

After Carney loses the next election due to reckless policies, please consider joining a renewed @ndp.ca and help raise all bars.

Let’s hope the @ndp.ca can get their act together in time for the next election and put a stop to #Carney’s reckless economism and disregard for the biophysical laws of this planet.

The #NDP need a leader who can prioritize the biosphere + working class interests at the same time.

It can be done.

What? So you are selling out my kids future to partner with an corporate oil lobbyist pretending to be a premier?

NO MORE PIPELINE SHOULD BE BUILT if we are to reach necessary emissions reduction targets.

You are rapidly losing support of those you need to win next election.

Expect resistance.

I see it more as getting intimate with eternity.
