🔥 The climate emergency hasn't gone away - it's here & now. But our gvts aren't acting with urgency. Our 12-min video on the 6 Markers of Climate Emergency shows what real action looks like. Watch the full video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJdK... And visit: www.davidsuzukiinstitute.ca/ceu

Today broke grey and raw for New Democrats here in BC: last night was a body blow. This morning I’m sending solidarity and care to all the progressive organizers - within and beyond electoral politics - who have worked tirelessly over so many years in this province.

#1 in Canadian Nonfiction for the 5th week in a row - bowled over by the reception at home. This country is in a fighting mood!

This @zeteo.com documentary about AIPAC and the pro-Israel lobby in the US is an amazing eye-opener: zeteo.com/p/watch-our-...

If you are in BC and haven't voted yet, then... this 👇

“Heat killed a record 50k people in European cities this summer, new research suggests, with scientists blaming climate breakdown for 2/3rds of the deaths. Morgues and funeral homes filled with bodies from June to August as the heat added by planet-baking pollution cut short an extra 32,000 lives…”

Sure I’m upset with the BC NDP for calling this election and other things. But I understand order of magnitude. My frustration with them isn’t within the same galaxy as my concern with handing a blank check of power to an extremist BC Conservative Party that hasn’t even picked their REAL leader yet.

Are we much different from Trump’s America, given the Turkey deal? Canada halted arms exports to Turkey six years ago. This week, Carney signed a defence deal with it. Important read here from Steven Staples: open.substack.com/pub/stevenst...

Policymakers know price explosions are related to corporate profits, but refuse to act, endangering democracy & affordability. Listen to @avilewis.ca & @isabellamweber.bsky.social on why we need 'Anti-Fascist Economics' to defend democracy . 🎙️ perspectivesjournal.ca/anti-fascist-economics

Albertans deserve real solutions to the crises they face, not scapegoating that divides us and fuels prejudice. Right now, all Canadians have an opportunity to reject this and say: we stand with migrants facing the brunt of this cynical, negative politics.

Let's talk BC's $13.8 billion deficit. Election hopefuls are making their case to voters about how they'll balance the budget while tackling affordability. BC Policy Solutions' Iglika Ivanova joined CBC’s On the Coast to break down how we got here and how the next government should move forward.

We cannot build a stronger Canada by attacking the hard-won rights of First Nations, workers and our environment. The powerful may want us to believe that Canadians are too apathetic to stand up to them. But we are determined to prove them wrong.

It should be illegal for Israel’s top arms producer to purchase a Canadian company. Elbit Systems is complicit in the genocide of Palestinians. Cancel the Canada-Israel Free Trade Agreement, enact sanctions and a two-way arms embargo now. www.calcalistech.com/ctechnews/ar...

Did you know? BC has a revenue problem, not a spending problem. Deep personal and corporate tax cuts in the early 2000s, the elimination of the carbon tax and declining natural resources revenues have all contributed to eroding BC’s fiscal capacity

Aligning BC law with Indigenous rights is not a threat to prosperity. ➡ It’s the path we must take for a more just and secure future. DRIPA offers a path to sustainable land stewardship, economic justice and climate resilience.

Let's talk climate crisis. It's already being felt in communities across BC as we witness increasingly destructive wildfires, floods and extreme heat. 

The future of Vancouver’s climate leadership hung in the balance in this election. Sim’s defeat means his efforts to roll back Vancouver’s nation-leading climate policies are mercifully done.

As @chrishatch.bsky.social writes, it's good to see the feds investing in a big wind energy project. That said, this decision "continues the pattern of millions for clean versus billions for conventional energy." The Yes Agenda is ready. Is Canada? www.nationalobserver.com/2026/10/19/o...

My latest column out today, with analysis of the Vancouver election outcome. Ken Sim and his right-wing council sent packing & progressives swept to power. Vancouver has re-secured its climate leadership www.nationalobserver.com/2026/10/18/o...
