I realize it's only a small portion of the Carney Mission O Unpossible, but watching Danielle Smith get booed by her own was pretty sweet. I have made sure it's racked up 1.5 million views on the Youtube.

An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

Ukrainian soldiers call Trump‑backed peace plan a sheer capitulation. “It’s not a plan, it’s surrender,” one frontline sergeant said. Giving up Donetsk and other regions they still hold is unacceptable. Peace for them means defending their land, not trading it.

Mark Carney managed to trade a pipeline that will never get built for meaningful progress on industrial carbon pricing and electricity interties — both of which will get more wind and solar built.
