Running pro-energy sector ads is not the mandate of Environment and Climate Change Canada. Carney is also gutting federal science agencies and trashing environmental protections. Carney is worse than Harper.

The Government™ has made an ad about all these protests happening around the world, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.

David Eby’s legacy = human rights violating military raid on Wet’suwet’en as AG, cheating in the leadership race to become Premier, simping for LNG, colossally failing to uphold DRIPA, worst snap election in Canadian history

There are Polymarket ads in fortune cookies. There are pop-ups in our prayers. There are paywalls on the monasteries, and the monks are millionaires. Well little Johnny’s gone to war. He joined the McMarines. The Iranians must be liberated and blown to smithereens. ...

I have refused many invitations to be interviewed by Piers Morgan over the years. This time I made an exception, on the condition that it be one-on-one, not a scream fest, and that it actually be about the book Astra and I wrote. It was... an experience. youtu.be/SMFQBQx-qSU

Once again, I have to ask myself just what kind of a 'democracy' needs to have, as the symbolic expression of its authority, a relic of feudal absolutism and garish inequality. #KingCharles

The Conservatives want you to believe they can cut your taxes, add no new taxes AND balance the budget, all without touching your health care. The BC Greens have a costed plan that makes life affordable and asks the ultrawealthy to pay their fair share. Vote Green on Saturday, Oct. 24.

OUCH. Bloc Québécois MP @patbonin.bsky.social absolutely clears the environment minister in this clip on Bill C-39. My translation: “It’s sad to see the minister who is giving the impression of wanting to convince herself that the bill that’s directly under her purview isn’t a disaster.

You and I in a little dev shop Buy a bag of tokens with the money we've got Set them free at the break of dawn 'Til one by one, they were gone Back at git, bugs in the software Flash the message, "Something's out there" Floating in the summer sky Ninety-nine AI agents go bye

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...

Philippines following in the footsteps of Pakistan. If this keeps up, there'll be no market for all that LNG that David Eby is pinning the future of BC on.

Best quote of the whole night: "This year's election bribes are next year's broken promises." -- Emily Lowan, when talking about NDP and Conservative election candy.

I’m watching this debate and it’s genuinely shocking how much smoke Shachi Kurl has for any progressive ideas. Right-wing economic assumptions, frames as reality rather than theory, baked into premises of her questions almost across the board. Wow. www.youtube.com/live/nt7A6iK...

Given #Carney's high moral standards on 'attacks on civilian infrastructure' and 'the deliberate targeting of innocent people,' somebody should tell him about what's been happening in this place called 'Gaza.'

Sunny, windy Alberta is a leader when it comes to renewable energy in Canada. But new provincial policies are trying to rein in that growth. The Narwhal’s senior Prairies reporter, @drewanderson.bsky.social, explains.

Every Right Wing Goverment ever.

There's only one tax plan in BC that taxes wealth not work. bcgreens.ca/the-fair-sha...

Fun facts: 🔥Since 2007, BC’s climate pollution has decreased by 2.3 million tonnes. 🔥Approved LNG export projects will increase BC’s climate pollution by 21.2 million tonnes by 2035. 🔥This is ten times more pollution than we’ve managed to cut in nearly 20 years.

#MédecinsSansFrontières Three years on, Israel is asphyxiating Gaza and dismantling the means of survival

The capacity to produce more with less labour could be the basis for reduced working hours and improved living standards. However, with #Bezos and the rest of his class in the saddle, it can only mean increased exploitation for some and abandonment for the rest. #AI

If I built an AI lab and it went rogue and deleted all student loan information, I'm betting they'd suddenly figure out how to prosecute me.

The Feds will subsidize a $100 billion pipeline after paying $34bil for the last one. But the PM signs on with Trump to fight subsidized EV technology. This has nothing to do with jobs. It is about blocking the expansion of cheap/accessible alternatives. www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art...

the reason “AI will create so much abundance we will have a utopian society” rhetoric falls so flat is that the people building it will never, ever share their bounty unless it is taken from them and we all know it

The Pentagon plans to live-stream the firing squad execution of the Fort Hood shooter, and my head is so very heavy, and everything is covered in the ashes of a burning planet. I found the corpse of a water spirit down by the creek where my parents live. She used to play with me when I was small.

Anyone calling it Super Intelligence tells you everything you need to know.

Opposition to genocide is not hatred of a people, it is a principled stance against war crimes and a defence of human rights. The Carney government is escalating its support for Netanyahu's war crimes by criminalizing its own citizens' ethics. www.ijvcanada.org/tell-canada-...

This carbon capture thing, if it ever hits 100% of its planned capacity, will only capture less than 10% of planned oil sands emissions.

We run with the free market, right? So if you're tired of high gas prices, don't worry because the invisible hand is gonna swoop in any day now with new supply and everything will be back to normal.

Was there a really big guy there? Did he have tears streaming from his eyes? Did he say "Sir, sir, I can't thank you enough". Like a really big guy, tears streaming down his face saying "Sir, thank you, sir. You're the greatest premiere we've ever had" Was it like that?

I'm speaking to students at the Toronto Metropolitan University today on the nature of law enforcement. I hope I can do better than this.

"The 2027 BMW 3 Series comes in both gas and electric versions, and the EV is $4,400 cheaper." But I have range anxiety....

Queen Liz taking an open convertible ride through Terrace BC in 1959. Is that Abraham Zapruder on the sidewalk holding up a Bell & Howell 8mm home movie camera? Practicing for JFK in 1963? Ha ha ha just kidding. It's not. Really. It's not.

National interest and such

The oil industry is unwilling to pay for this pipeline because even they know the world is moving away from fossil fuels. This project leaves Canadians bearing all the risks of a bad investment without any of the rewards.

“The extinction of the southern resident orcas could now have a name and a price tag: “Pacific Link” for $44 billion of mostly taxpayer money,” said Conservation and Policy Campaigner Lucero Gonzalez. #cdnpoli www.wildernesscommittee.org/news/canadas...

The saddest part of this story is that the supplier was Canadian until it was sold to American billionaire pals of Trump last year. It's not just the ever-increasing American ownership of Canada, it's also the ever-increasing concentration of wealth in billionaires. thetyee.ca/News/2026/10...

Unexpectedly durable piece of Justin Trudeau's legacy: publicly financed pipeline construction.

Why are Indigenous people now being subjected to levels of overt hostility and racism unseen in decades? One chief recently told me he was denied entry into a store for being “Indian”.
