This afternoon, I informed the Prime Minister of my decision to resign as Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture, Minister responsible for Official Languages, Minister of Nature and Parks Canada, as well as his Lieutenant in Quebec.

You can find my full statement below.

Men are socialized to hate women. They are told from a small age the worst thing they can do is “cry like a girl, or throw like a girl or act like a girl.” Then they grow up associating women & girls with shame. And that is how this misogyny breeds. It is patriarchal conditioning from the get-go.

He claims to have the full support of Indigenous Peoples and to stay consistent with Canada's climate goals. Those are LIES.

Instead of MORE FOSSIL FUELS, we desperately need clean energy projects. act.gp/3XnO3HD

The MOU reads that Pathways CCS project will generate $16 billion

That's actually an admission that it will generate nothing, since that's how much the companies have said the project will cost

Obviously it will all be paid for by taxpayers

The federal-AB agreement is a love letter to fossil fuels

-cancelation of critical policies (OG emissions cap & clean electricity rules)
-public $$ for a pipeline (via Indigenous loan program)
-more $$ for CCS, incl. enhanced oil production
- only mention of electricity is for fossil fuels

hardly surprising but once again I reiterate that this oil and gas cap was based on the industries own commitment.

Would be nice for someone to acknowledge this and the fact they are completely walking it back.

This is integrity - and a harsh condemnation of Carney from the best climate minister this country has ever had

👏👏 @stevenguilbeault.bsky.social

I hope others have the courage to be as honest about what a disgrace Carney is
#Breaking: Former environment minister Steven Guilbeault resigns from cabinet following Carney government's energy deal with Alberta
Steven Guilbeault resigns from Mark Carney’s cabinet
Before entering elected politics, Guilbeault was a famed environmentalist.

4. On the pipeline (cont'd):
- The Carney government appears to be trying to replace Indigenous consent with equity participation, i.e. Coastal First Nations (the rights holders) can't say no if an Indigenous group somewhere has a tiny ownership stake.

It's almost like Sara believes there should be honesty in advertising... better change that anti-greenwashing law ASAP.
MOU reactions hot take:

So about that 2050 net zero claim from the Pathways website (courtesy of the wayback machine)?

What we have witnessed tday in this new federal-Alberta agreement is a complete abandonment of core federal climate policy and a complete abdication to the MAGA-aligned govt of Alberta and to oil & gas corporations that send huge chunks their profits to the US.

4. More bad stuff
- lifting oil tanker ban (Coastal First Nations will not let that one go without a fight).
- Weakening industrial carbon price (now goes to $130/tonne rather than $170)
- New transmission lines between BC, AB & SK are for fossil fuel expansion rather than climate solutions

3. On the pipeline:
- it's a 1M bpd pipeline ON TOP of 3-400K bpd expansion of Trans Mountain
- the goal for CCS is make the oil being exported " best in class in terms of the average for heavy oil by 2050." That's a bar so low a worm can't fit under it

2. Pipeline MOU also:
- allows oil sands companies to use captured carbon to extract more oil (enhanced oil recovery), which previously wasn't allowed
- promotes expensive nuclear (i.e. keep using natural gas for 15 years) rather than cheaper, available-now wind and solar

You've probably heard of Bill C-12 and C-2, but there's a slate of other bills that, when assembled together transformer style, could create a freedom repression machine that rivals the one south of the border.

No one escapes the UK's crackdown on peaceful protests 😱 Even elders are arrested for sitting peacefully with signs that say "I am against genocide."

And his new bills are setting us up to be just like the US. Maybe even make it easier for us to be absorbed. He's a pathological liar. bsky.app/profile/gree...

Federal officers demand 25-foot buffer during ICE arrests. But THAT’S NOT THE LAW.

The Louisiana Legislature passed a 25-foot buffer law in 2024, but it was ruled unconstitutional by a federal judge earlier this year. | WWL-TV

1. This federal-Alberta pipeline MOU is even worse than I expected. Even before we get to the pipeline:
- exempts AB from net zero electricity reg (AB produces 44% of all electricity-related GHGs in Canada).
- delays methane reg by 5 years (75% redn by 2035 rather than 2030.
