It is dangerous to our democracy that Pierre Poilievre is unable to be given national security clearance. If he is unwilling, that’s a red flag - otherwise he is unable which should be disqualifying. No more excuses, no more delaying. It’s put up or shut up time.

The Sunshine List is good & I will die on this hill. It is weaponized by people of bad faith but it’s one of the *only* real baselines we have to for class, income + value of work. I think it should be everyone. It should be for people $0 to ∞ See teacher or child worker pay vs police. 1/2

It's hard to convey how barrier breaking this is. Weather + climate people have always collaborated internationally, simply because weather does not respect national borders. Even during the Cold War, US + Russia shared weather observations. To be told this is to be told to "stop doing your job"

Trucks have been getting bigger, more energy & space consuming, more polluting, and much deadlier to everyone around them including kids. Not because most of us actually need bigger vehicles, but as ego boosts, status symbols & “indicators of male virility.” Note the truck bed is basically the same.
Comparison of older and newer pick-up truck. Although the truck bed is essentially the same, the overall truck size is substantially larger and higher.
