Dear press, I requested a distinction
Don’t call them “deadly protests” if the government is killing protesters.
Only call them deadly protests if the protesters are killing people.
The former would imply that the protests are causing death. Rather than tyrants and evil leaders.

You wouldn't expect some of the most northern settled communities in Canada to be warmer than cities in the south like Regina or even our nation's capital, but that is our weather reality for the beginning of 2026.

Dramatic policy U-turns put Canada far behind in the global EV race
Canada’s rapidly accelerating EV adoption crashed and burned in 2025 while the world raced ahead. From Norway to Vietnam to Ethiopia, a diverse and growing mix of nations is leaving us in their dust.

Saying “the climate has always been changing” is misleading because it distorts the issue
You can say:
“It’s true the climate has changed before, but what’s happening now is unprecedented in speed and cause. Human activity is driving this change, and we have the power and responsibility to act.” 🧵
