These battery fires are becoming one of the first things people associate with e-bikes. And there’s little awareness that they’re almost entirely due to cheap, uncertified, off-brand batteries and bikes. Not regular companies with certified batteries.

This is my big hope for this election. That brief period where the NDP was forced to work with the Greens a few years back was probably the best government we've had in my lifetime.

Throwing billions in public money behind a pipeline at a time of climate breakdown – while sweeping aside environmental protections, meaningful Indigenous consultation and workers’ right to strike – is absolutely not in the national interest.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

“This bill explicitly gives government the power to end legal strikes when a minister decides that a strike is or could become contrary to the national interest — and the national interest is defined solely by the opinion of the minister,” warns top labour leader Bea Bruske. Holy shit. This is bad.

Climate change is a killer hellscape that we will not get out of with mere 'personal responsibility.' We deserve systemic responses and we deserve elected officials that make it happen.

A screengrab of the weather network showing it's +32C, feels like +42C in Ottawa today with a tornardo risk in some severe storms
