Just as Putin, Orban and Trump all seem to recognize that tyrants have shared interests, so too we need to recognize that those who would be rid of tyrants too have shared interests that cross national borders.
Budapest today. People are demanding that PM Orban resign.

Climate change is an environmental issue – but it’s not only an environmental issue.

It affects our health, and the economy. It impacts food, water, and resources. It contributes to geopolitical instability and even conflict.

Here are the Canadian scientists who study this.

If I were Canadian PM I would immediately:

1. Create a new $15B science fund

2. Offer any credentialed US scientist funding for lab startup and replacement of NIH grants if they move to Canada

3. Immediate permanent residency

4. Citizenship after 2 years

Overnight a science superpower
