Once you realize current electricity rate design is a product of the limits of 1920s (not 2020s) metering technology—and not some fundamental economic reality that we must respect as sacred—it becomes a lot more obvious that we need to fundamental redesign electricity rates.

I had not seen these university rankings from American Caldwell before. Interesting idea but it is genuinely the stupdiest possible way of aggregating data I've seen in a long time. americancaldwell.com/guv-rankings

This is what used nuclear fuel looks like in 🇨🇦. Contained. Safely monitored. A solid. Safe. Spoiler: it’s not like what you see on the Simpsons. Every single one of these dry storage containers contains fuel bundles that have powered where Ontarians live, work, and play.

The Torch-passing events to mark the 80th anniversary of D-Day this June were inspired by CANADA🇨🇦 - by the immortal words of Cdn war poet Lt Col (Dr.) John McCrae “In Flanders Fields”. The torch design came from talented students at McMaster University, Hamilton. #LestWeForget
