And no - despite what they advertise - Canadian oilsands is not among the cleanest oil and gas in the world. In fact their emissions intensity is among the highest/worst in the world.

Elon Musk – the richest guy in the world – is allowed to pour zillions of dollars into Donald Trump's presidential campaign. Does that sound like democracy to you? We need to overturn Citizens United and move to the public funding of elections.

Every human population has a small percentage of sociopaths, people who just dgasf about others. Egalitarian human societies developed strong mechanisms to curb and expel them, due to the danger they posed to all. Neoliberalism and capitalism promote them to the very top.

Fossil fuels were given over $7 TRILLION in subsidies last year: buff.ly/3P85KHU That's $19.2 billion per day, $799 million per hour, $13.3 million every minute. The first step in addressing the problem is to stop funding it. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy

Oilsands & friends will complain loudly that it's unfair they need to reduce their emissions now like every other sector. Sorry we're in a fossil fuel climate crisis & 🇨🇦 has no chance of meeting its international obligations without your emissions going down. Do the work.

Saddest climate meme I ever made.

What can Doughnut Economics learn from History? Roman Krznaric and I chatted about it at our kitchen table - and Long Now Foundation.org turned it into a fab little film. Check it out here: youtube.com/watch?v=FfUOs4…

Please share and take a minute to call the Premiers office at 780-427-2251. Her staff will take your message. Remember to be polite and five short words should do it: “Premier, please pay your taxes!”

#Ableg Fact Since 2012, Alberta’s O&G sector LOST 36,200 jobs, a 21.3% reduction! The biggest factor? The UCP’s $4.7 billion tax cut in 2019, which the sector used to accelerate automation, not create jobs Stop blaming Trudeau for a non-existent “production cap”—blame the UCP!

thank you CKUA Radio Keri Rak for playing Sam Roberts the CDn dream! i consider this a belated request for me: i hadn’t included ‘the’ when requesting it from Baba years ago, and got a replacement Sam Roberts tune. 💗 S-O-C-i-a-l-i-s-M !!!

Whatever your views on today's events, we can't help but feel sadness that a government once elected with bold promises of transformational change now seems to be on its last tumultuous legs.

please Joe Biden Vice President JD Vance !

Time for a new button? In 1970, I invented the Nixon Drinks Canada Dry button. It became an icon of Canadians resistance to US economic domination & grabbing our resources. As Trump daily threatens our sovereignty, is it time for a new button? Linda McQuaig Maude Barlow #cdnpoli

Donald Trump isn’t the cause of what ails America. He’s the consequence. The real causes go back four decades. Let me explain. bit.ly/40cVl2U

someone shared the dec 2 report with me and it really did come off as biased. maybe there is reason?

Alberta has a premiere who supports oil and gas. And nothing else. Not her electorate, and not her country. She’s been paid to destroy everything else.

Over 300,000 Albertans voted Liberal in the last election, yet first-past-the-post left them with just two seats. Does that seem democratic to you? Mark Carney, as a proud Edmontonian, will you support proportional representation to ensure every Albertan's vote truly counts?

When I started talking about Oligarchy, many people didn't understand what I meant. Well, that's changed. When the 3 wealthiest men in America sit behind Trump at his inauguration, everyone understands that the billionaire class now controls our government. We must fight
