hunting shadows, riding bikes, advocating for pedestrians and cyclists, predicting spring, and fighting fascism.
They better have some other planks.

Carbon capture may be the oil industry’s dream, but convenience doesn’t change the fact that a net capture has never been demonstrated.

NDP and Green have no budget for an election. An election would make matters worse for them. Unless their fundraising changes dramatically, they will still be delaying the election in 4 years.

Wait.

Earlier today, Trump was fighting a war on drugs. 🤔

In 2-4 years, when we go to the polls, there will be little progress. I doubt serious investors come forward. Too many political, environmental and logistical challenges.They canceled before. There aren’t any good port locations. All pose risks for big ships. Insurance companies won’t underwrite it.

Carney just made that Smith’s problem.

Even 1% support for fascism requires an intervention.

The MOU doesn’t imply BC or indigenous communities have agreed to anything, either.

Cool

They need to go after US Steel, which accepted Harper’s 2009 bailout to save Stelco, and shut down the smelter shortly after.

The American thing to do would be to sue, over 2¢.

A little sparkle of gold is all anyone needs, right? Right?

United States of America chose a complicated and awkward name. Then, they chose a complicated and awkward flag. Then they chose an unfit tyrant for leader.

These poor choices seem normal to them because the world revolves around them. Therefore, these poor choices are everyone else’s problem.

While I don’t care when the MAGA cult loses, I’d prefer if Trump didn’t get $59M in free money.

“the first celebration of Thanksgiving in North America occurred during the 1578 voyage of Martin Frobisher from England in search of the Northwest Passage.” … in what is now Northern Canada.

“it is 1760, we have taken Quebec, God is no longer mad at us, I declare a day of Thanksgiving,”

Canadian Thanksgiving predates Lincoln’s American Thanksgiving by a century.

Drivers literally obscuring their own view of where they are going.

Big lifted pickup was likely illegally modified. Not sure why police and insurance companies treat this like a nothing burger.

Putin’s leverage over Trump expires when the Epstein kompromat gets released.

Release the Epstein files!

Yesterday Trump claimed “The war in Ukraine would never have happened if I were president.”

It’s like he was claiming Putin was justified for starting the war. He’s very clearly working for Russia.

At least the G19 doesn’t always need to have conference calls, now.

Trump has picked his patsy, and the media shall treat him as such. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
