Little doubt that there's so much more to know. yet just this alone should be enough to seal his personal fate.

This abuse incident is not the administrations doing, but it's handling is, & it shows the kind of admin this kind of leader would install. Evict his lieutenants too.

Wake up America!

‼️🚨Presidents DON’T get to run Elections in America

Trump’s attempts to interfere with elections are in conflict with constitutional delegations of responsibility.

The DOJ will not investigate the murders of Americans on the street in broad daylight, but they will indict a journalist! Wake up America! This is fascism! This is everything the Constitution of the United States was meant to protect being dismantled in front of our eyes!

The Antidote to Separatism is a New Vision for Canada. Where is it?

@mark-carney.bsky.social's Davos speech is part of that vision. Now we need other leaders to step up with fresh, new ideas.

That is not Danielle Smith or O&G CEOs.

Carbon is the New Metal

"Galvorn" is pretty cool. lightweight, strong alternative to copper in wires, steel in transmission lines, and many other materials. As an added bonus, Galvorn is 100% recyclable.

Fun fact: oil, gas are a great source of carbon.

Here’s a Canadian story that is an example of cutting off your nose to spite your face:
The Conservatives decided to blame immigrants for the housing crisis. The news media parroted it without any inspection whatsoever and so ppl believed it. Demand and supply right?
WRONG.
