These alarmist takes totally ignore the reality of a constantly expanding, highly profitable oil and gas sector choosing to not invest the cents per barrel needed to slow emissions growth. Ridiculous positioning. calgaryherald.com/opinion/column…
Canada...let's not join the U.S. in its attempt to race backward as the rest of the world charges ahead. #cdnpoli #energy
California high-speed rail is a project that will never be built. 16 years, $15 billion, and zero tracks laid is no record to fundraise on. Thanks to this Administration, American taxpayers will not foot the bill for this billion-dollar boondoggle.

An important article on famine and starvation from the Red Cross. This is a global reality we thought was behind us. From Gaza to Sudan to Myanmar, it is a tragic reality. Depriving people of food is criminal. Food shortages happen. Crop collapses happen. But famine is an act…
Do you know what starvation or famine means? Learn more in this ICRC briefing note that outlines the rules of IHL most relevant to food security, starvation, and the prevention of hunger and famine in situations of armed conflict. Download it here 👇🏽 ms.spr.ly/6015sEqst
Of course you know that it is a proposed cap on pollution, not production. And you know that the oil and gas industry has promised to reduce pollution for years...but maybe now saying that they don't want to do this?
Don't cap Canadian prosperity.
Agreed. Multiple stairway requirements also need to be addressed like they have in other countries. Read more here: environmentaldefence.ca/report/mid-ris… #HomesinCities #onpoli
This is such a niche issue yet such an important reform. We really can’t make small apartments/flats work between 4-8 storeys without elevator rule reform in Canada. It’s time to legalize small elevators and the European elevator code in Canada.
And virtually no darkness all summer. The power does not need to be evenly distributed to replace burning expensive and polluting diesel. #cleanenergy #Yukon #energy
This beyond pathetic. There is virtually no sunlight in the winter.
The proposed Dresden landfill beside the Sydenham River and its disappearing Environmental Assessment keeps getting more interesting. #ONpoli #plasticpollution #waste #rivers
I wrote to the Integrity Commissioner to ask her to consider new information, revealed today by reporters at The Trillium, in deciding whether to investigate if Bill 5's cancellation of the environmental assessment for the Dresden landfill was improperly influenced by political…
The same week Metrolinx apologized for the use of artificial intelligence in an awkward social media response to customer concerns after a Coldplay concert, it had just completed laying off dozens of customer service employees. trib.al/fE4BKc3
Are you aware of this CMHC study with single stair pilot projects? All of the projects have been submitted for building permit approval. singlestair.ca

‘He’s very humble’: Ford says Carney stayed at his Muskoka cottage on Monday night cp24.com/news/2025/07/2…
Don't let the door slap your butt on your way out.
We’re at a crossroads. Not every Canadian can afford to leave. Not every family has an American job offer waiting. But make no mistake — the conversation is happening. At kitchen tables, at daycare pickups, in late-night chats between spouses. “Do we stay?” “What are we staying…
Ford wants to override towns and cities. They're saying no — by the dozens nationalobserver.com/2025/07/21/ana… #onpoli
@fordnation what are people going to do about returning empties? There's no local spots in East York any more

Canada is expected to finalize rules on toxic PFAS chemicals — but the government’s recent silence has left environmental advocates spooked that the groundbreaking effort could be derailed by Trump's trade war. nationalobserver.com/2025/07/18/new… #cdnpoli #Toxic

I honestly believe this is one of the biggest mysteries there is, Orcas are the most efficient predators on earth, yet they have never attacked us in the wild. They know something we don’t.
