This is not a good take. Carney's move signals to the rest of Canada, and the world, that it's OK to keep building more fossil fuel projects.
Other countries will use this to justify doing the same.
Our children are watching, to see if we care about their futures. Do we?

Yeah, fuck this guy.
The new Canada-Alberta MOU is a positive step for our energy future.
Meaningful investments in Pathways, clear measures to reduce emissions, and a stronger industrial carbon price give Albertans the certainty we need to move forward. /1

This whole MOU is based on lies. There's no such thing as "low emission" bitumen. CCUS does NOT work. Indigenous co-ownership IS NOT reconciliation. Doubling down on fossil fuels & AI data centres will NOT "lower costs." Both govts are putting corporations before the public interest. #CDNPoli #ABLeg

On a day where Carney is set to announce an MOU for a new oil pipeline, it's all the more important this country has a serious reckoning with the choices being made and how the world is changing. It's reckless, short sighted and completely ignorant to the shifting geopolitics we depend on.
The world is splitting between petro and electro states, and Canada risks being left in the dust
The most important takeaway from this year’s UN climate summit isn’t in the agreement — it’s that the world is splitting into fossil fuel and clean energy states, leaving Canada at a fork in the road ...

Is it just me or is it fucking bananas to have <any> fossil fuel lobbyists at global climate conference?
🔥 A 12% jump in fossil fuel lobbyists at COP compared to last year.
📍 Belém is seeing the highest concentration since records began.
The industry causing the crisis shouldn’t shape climate solutions.

While the timing is probably related,it needs to be understood that Trump and his fellow fascists would absolutely be attacking Venezuela no matter what.
Treating the carnage that will inevitably result in an invasion of the country like a "distraction" is incredibly insulting.

The sinking took the lives of all 29 men on the ship, and became immortalized in Gordon Lightfoot's song.

Silence over Sudan: why do Manchester City’s owners get away with so much?
Two midweek matches in England had a backdrop of war and geopolitics, but only one drew large protests
How would you feel if the owner of the football club you support was implicated, even as those implications are repeatedly denied, in famine, ethnic cleansing and the deaths of 1,500 men, women and children?
Compare this with the more familiar list of bad things football club owners do, the real sack‑the‑board stuff. Failure to buy a striker. Inadequate Showing Of Ambition. The hiring and/or firing of David Moyes. Mike Ashley was pretty annoying. He had shops full of quilted coats hung really high up close to the ceiling. Continue reading...
