Politicians who continue to support the fossil fuel industry are evil.
It sounds hyperbolic, but there's just no other word to describe the morality of those willingly helping to destroy the habitability of our planet. If that's not evil, nothing is.

Stay away from rivers, shorelines, and trails near the North Shore Mountains. Conditions are dangerous: fast-moving water, flooding, and unstable banks pose life-threatening hazards. Stay safe and avoid these areas. https://metrovancouver.org/services/water/seymour-and-capilano-river-levels

JD Vance and Peter Thiel are running a sustained operation out of the White House designed to acquire Greenland, either voluntarily or by force. Thiel has laid out plans for what he intends to do with the island nation in past writings. It doesn't entail the consent of the Greenlanders for anything.

The Conservative Party has lost its way. It needs to stop mimicking the exact same US narratives and stop creating fear and using exaggeration to make a case for being in power. This is Canada. We are smarter and not easily fooled and we have the benefit of seeing what’s happening to the south.
