I would feel safer about Canada’s natural future if we had First Nations deeply involved with all resource management.

It’s incredibly frustrating the way the boomers systematically broke every institution in our society and yet still hold on desperately to all the levers of power even as they drive off the cliff.

We’re not ready for an aging population — and it's going to cost us
Canada's government budgets keep getting squeezed by our aging population. When are we going to do something about it?

It's a bit much to listen to Jason Kenney talk about how running tankers along the BC coast is "worth the risk" when all of the benefits flow to Alberta and Big Oil, and all of the risk lands in BC. Except for the CERTAINTY of increased global warming, which affects all of us.

If the fossil fuel industry does not want to be mentioned in the COP texts then they shouldn’t be allowed to attend the event either. My 2 cents.

The BC NDP government talks a lot about rebuilding the forest sector, but they don't talk at all about addressing the simple reality that this industry has cut too much, too fast, for too long, in too many places, and that this still continues.

I have tried to point out to people advertising of most sorts should probably be banned for years, and they are weirdly defensive of it.
Even when you point out that advertising has a huge negative impact on everyone's mental health, people are just crazy indoctrinated.

Re-upping this 🧵 from when Ksi Lisims LNG was given enviro approval.
NOTE: Downstream emissions from Ksi Lisims will be roughly equivalent to 5% of Canada's TOTAL domestic GHG emissions. This is a carbon bomb - a willful act of arson.
Mark Carney simply does not get the climate emergency... 👇

This Ksi Lisims LNG approval is terrible news.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
