I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below. 145136924892

Catharine Tunnacliffe @ctunnacliffe.bsky.social · 04/09/2026In some places it's the opposite -- like if it's a place a lot of people fly into like St John's NL, it will be way cheaper to pick up from downtown or a suburban location. But yeah, used to save a buck by having a family member pick us up at Moncton airport and picking up the car in Nova Scotia. 010

It's successful insofar as Canadians who don't want to spend US$ or risk US travel... aren't. But otherwise, I'm unsure what "success" looks like. Has US policy on due process for visitors changed? No. Has US screening of visitor political views stopped? No. 3112
