Truer words were never uttered: California has the US number one economy, and it's been booming for a decade; it also ranks in the top five states in education, healthcare and life expectancy. Tennessee, conversely, ranks in the bottom five of the fifty states in each of these categories.

Canada's going in the wrong direction. Emissions are going up not down, a direct result of weakened policies. Planned oil/gas production increases will further increase GHGs. Despite Ministers' insistence that we're still committed to net zero in 2050, the policies needed to do that aren't in place.

1/ 1318 meetings with fossil fuel lobbyists in Mark Carney’s first year in office. Another summer of Canada burning. It’s clear whose interest this pipeline is actually in, and it sure isn’t Canadians'.
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and Prime Minister Mark Carney stand in front of workers in hard hats, smiling. News headline text: Carney designates West Coast pipeline as national interest project. 'National' struck out and replaced with corporate.

Stelco is laying off 500 Canadian steelworkers. The CEO of their US parent company, Cleveland-Cliffs, is a vocal Trump supporter who has been cheering on the tariffs. This is a MAGA attempt to deindustrialize Canada and harm our productive capacity.

Trump’s plan to save the midterms is…help Russia. The Trump-Vance-Kushner-Witkoff approach to the war has always been weaken Ukraine so they bow down to Putin. It hasn’t worked. With nearly two years of this, Ukraine has shown it can thwart ground offensives and strike Russian oil without US help.

Tomorrow marks one year since the sham of a ceasefire agreement in Gaza was signed. Sold as a way to halt the Israeli military’s endless killing, the results of this “ceasefire” have been the Israeli military killing or wounding at least one Palestinian every 90 minutes.
