Update: environmental groups say yeah, this announcement isn’t sufficient to mitigate the harms of the powers the government is giving itself with respect to endangered species (like the whales!). Soooooo a nice move in general, but insufficient in context. Which means Carney is indeed full of it.

I have resolved to vote for and support women to be put into positions of leadership anywhere and everywhere. I hope many others join me. Frankly, I’m tired of all the misogyny and patriarchy BS.

We bought our first EV earlier this summer, and I've calculated we've saved over $500 in gas in less than 2 months.

Misogyny needs to be addressed at all levels. Men, we need to learn to be better. And we only learn when we listen to women.

Went to the protest outside the Premier's propaganda tour in Port Hawkesbury today. What a disappointment. In meeting with the protesters, he only was interested in dismissing our concerns and giving rehearsed answers. We need better leadership. This is NOT "Listening to Nova Scotians"

Thank you for this @joanbaxter.bsky.social Any mining company looking to set up in Nova Scotia should be required to pay $100,000,000 into a trust fund for the purpose of the maintenance and clean up of the mess they will inevitably leave behind.

Mark Carney speaks of extreme weather events and wildfires caused by climate change, but Mr. “Value(s)” and former UN Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance - now Mr. Fossil Fuel and Pipeline Pusher- can’t even make himself mention the climate crisis by name.

If you haven't watched my newest Poilievre's personal assistant video, it was inspired by truly the most magical Calgary Stampede outfit I have ever seen a politician wear. We are so lucky Pierre Poilievre exists to sparkle in the sun like an anti-woke opal. youtu.be/r-1lhkq3c3w?...

Login to see what’s happening for the first time today because I still don’t have power after 2 massive thunderstorms ripped overhead early today. More pipelines, to burn more fossil fuels. Sure that’ll help. Thanks @mark-carney.bsky.social. Nothing beats the sound of a town full of generators.

i never worry about my child being "left behind" because they might need to learn a new tech when they enter the job market. i do worry about children who have already been "left behind" because they can't access clean water, social supports, healthcare, and education.

Don't forget, there's no such thing as "austerity." When governments decide to underfund social programs, it's theft. And, governments don't stop spending. There's always money when there's political will.
