more from the budget: tax breaks on private plans and boats, but don't worry REFUGEES will now be on the hook for their healthcare costs. Did they accidently release the Conservative budget?

For those of you who thought the lack of urgency around climate issues couldn't get any worse - Carney's gov seems to be committing to scrapping the industrial cap, while relying on technologies like cap & storage which no climate expert will say is an effective strategy

This is first independent poll I've seen for the North Island riding.
This makes it clear that the strategic choice is undoubtably for Tanille Johnston
tell you friends in North Island-Powell River - especially if they're sitting in that undecided column!

Couldn't be more clear. This has nothing to do with fentanyl and everything to do with wanting Canada's resources.

More new rental units coming up in Courtenay. I wonder if 2025 will be the year we finally see balanced vacancy rates (around 3%)

An absolutely excellent read. Beautiful writing and layered story of the AIDS crisis in Chicago in the 80s. First book I’ve read by Rebecca Makkai - I’ll be searching for her others

When was the last time you saw a decarbonization plan ahead of schedule? I’m impressed (and proud) with the work on the climate file by the Comox Valley Regional District in recent years.
We’ve even implemented an internal cost of carbon to corporation operations to fun projects.

Had the privilege of listening to John Vaillant speak today. Exxon had a fairly good understanding of where climate was headed with 1970s science. Fossil fuel companies continue to lobby for policy that avoids tackling the crisis. the opportunity for a smooth transition was lost due to inaction
