Des nouvelles concernant l’effondrement de l'échafaudage Š #PrillyMalley. Les parallèles avec Crans-Montana sont choquants: selon le rapport des experts, aucune règle n’était respectée, et la question n'était pas de savoir «si» cela arriverait, mais «quand».

They have a great “big” point here about incrementalism but also: fiber, water, and even minimal activity specifically are great first steps towards feeling better.
I suspect that a lot of us 1st-worlders feel lousy in part because we’re each paving our own way to T2D, colon cancer, and heart disease. @…

So this is percolating and the results so far are not surprising.
I'd vote NO, for the following reasons:
- oil demand continues to decline and risk is high we'll end up with an expensive underutilized pipeline. Therefore high risk we'll end up subsidizing any private entity that builds this thing.
- why would we invest public dollars to support infrastructure for a product where 75% of the profit leaves Canada? There has to be a net benefit, beyond steel sales and jobs, for this project to be considered.
- Indigenous land rights must be respected. They will be left with the rusting pipeline decades in the future, and it's impact on the land.
- the B.C. government must also have a final vote as they have to give up land and provide support.
- we don't need additional oil tankers on our west coast.
- and most importantly, with this MOU, Canada pretty much declared we aren't serious about protecting the environment or fighting climate change. We're oil whores. Harsh but....

How did labour fare in 2025?
In many respects, last year was a mixed bag for workers and unions in Canada. Though union wage gains were relatively healthy, the overall economy continued to cool with unemployment creeping up and many workers still feeling the cost-of-living crunch.

In my opinion,
I think there are more happy linux users than windows users in the world.
Most if not all windows users just "tolerate it" but that's far from appreciating it. It's a burden that they learned how to handle.
And this is the biggest reasons for linux to be slowly and steadily growing in market share. The only obstacle is people resisting to change, which with age I've accepted as a respectable feeling.
