I have a question about oil pipelines in Canada.
What happens in the event the Transmountain pipeline is overrun by a Rank 4 or 5 wildfire?
I know these pipelines carry different product at different times. I know they can be shut. But what would happen if it was a section transporting NGL-diluted bitumen?

We were at the hospital again yesterday for @Tree. Another rough day. We made it home after a few hours in the ER and she is OK now, sleeping off the experience.
The hospital and ER were full so while we were there we had a range of people flow through the beds beside us. An older gentleman with heart problems, a drunk man with heart problems, and a young woman, quietly crying for hours, coming down after an opioid overdose, confused and scared and hopeless. Occasionally sharp and upset, but mostly just quietly crying, talking.
It is so sad the human suffering we have allowed our society to tolerate.
I am so grateful we have good people; doctors, nurses, care aids, clerks, attendants, paramedics, even kind security guards and police, taking care of people. And I am glad all this is done without concern for financial ability to pay.
I wish our system was better in so many ways, not least in the ways it could help Tree. But in other ways, it is very good, and doesn’t get credit for just how good it is. Most of that is down to the people within it.
Most people, especially detached from money or power, are good. This is reinforced for me everytime I go to the hospital and see the random strangers that are there for every conceivable reason.
They just want to be happy, be secure, be with family, be occupied, be healthy.
That’s what I see at the hospital. People wanting to be happier, and people trying to make that happen for them.
I hope one day that young lady finds the people she needs to help her stop crying.

So Elon Musk just let it out of the bag that there are people in the USA including him… which implies, a not-zero number of others in positions of influence… who believe Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Quebec should all separate from Canada.
I mean… we’re beyond just one now… he’s essentially saying we should not exist as a country. If every second province “separates” then you quickly become unable to function as a contiguous nation.
This is not sovereignty or individiualism.
This is a foreign power trying to break its neighbour into swallowable pieces.

If I take her at face value sure, yes, there are going to be people and are people who are angry that we are not developing every single drop of oil and gas possible.
But that does not negate the fact, the physics, of the problem we are in.
We must stop developing oil and gas energy.
We must stop emitting CO2.
We must end the use of fossil fuels.
That means at the end of the day all Danielle Smith's tears accomplish, in both the short and long term, are tears for all the rest of us as our homes burn, our crops dry out, and our societies become unable to function.
We must transition to clean energy immediately to avoid a disastrous future.

Since I’ve been watching the polls for the BC election… it seems relevant to see how the polls did predicting the election in Québec last night. The answer, ok. As an average across four different poll companies, they got the three top parties almost exactly, but they under-estimated on the Québec Solidaire vote (Pallas was closest), and over-predicted for the CAQ (Research Co nailed it).

Wow! The CAQ wiped off the map in Québec as the Parti Québécois wins a minority with less than 30% of the popular vote. Strong Liberal Opposition, large Conservative caucus (largest in 100 years?!), and significant Québec Solidaire seats as well.
Sounds like a recipe for Proportional Representation ;)
But also, glad Québeccers did not give full power to Sovereigntists. A referendum won’t happen before Trump leaves office, and likely not at all unless the PQ end up winning a second election down the road with a majority.
In all, not a bad result I think.

He said he felt like he was swimming in "a sea of stupidity" with falsehoods about his country commonplace.
"Trump would say something stupid, Governor Trudeau, 51st state and all that, and they'd stand there and laugh and I'd say to myself, 'Well, I just lost all respect for you,'" May said in an interview.
"And then you start avoiding people because you know what the conversation is going to be. If you try and have a logical discussion with somebody who's a Trumper, just forget about it," he said.”

RE: #fediverse #democracy #afd #nazi #musk #opensocialweb #mastodon #canpoli #cdnpoli #europe

The most depressing news of the week, and this decade so far, is the UN's report that leaves no doubt that we will fail to hold global warming below 1.5ºC. But there is also hope, read on.
The world agreed in 2015 on 1.5ºC, championed, I might add, by a certain Canadian Prime Minister. Now, the best we could hold it to would be 1.8ºC and that would be at breakneck speed.
That Prime Minister is now hanging out with his kids, his girlfriend, and is generally getting on just fine...while his party oversees what they intend to be the greatest expansion of fossil fuel infrastructure and emissions (LNG and TMX2) in Canadian history.
Meanwhile the rest of us are left breathing in the smoke and fleeing the fires.
As a young adult 25 years ago, I thought we had time. I was optimistic. I thought surely we'd make the correction once the every-day consequences started to hit.
Well here we are, fully in the *beginning* of those consequences, and our governments have never been more committed to being the last one to sell the last drop of oil, coal, or gas.
No one disputes anymore that we have and are changing the climate.
The deniers lost.
But the oil companies are still winning.
The only way to save ourselves at this time and to have any hope of 1.8ºC or 2ºC or whatever the lowest possible temperature is that we can achieve, is to take the fight to the oil companies directly.
Physically.
Economically.
Until they cannot operate, pollute or continue as going concerns.
We are all of us feeling the impacts of climate change and what oil companies have done. That means today we have many many more people ready to fight than we ever have before.
We have to fight because they are already killing us, and because the rest of us must survive.
We will fight because if we don't, both they, and we, will die on a planet rendered unliveable by our own stupidity and greed.
So we fight. In every way you can. You fight.

“Carney pointed to a map of North America, half of which had been accurately but artistically burned away.
“It is our intention for the pipeline to cross over Saskatchewan and British Columbia, but if they prove too charred already then I plan to divert the pipeline and profits through the Northern states, as part of my next round of capitulations to Trump in CUSMA negotiations.”
Danielle Smith, smiling so wide that many in the audience naturally assumed she was thinking about forcing trans children to dig the pipeline infrastructure themselves, stated that she fully supported the project being moved up before her province was so full of smoke it couldn’t exist anymore.
“This is a great day for Albertans, and none of the rest of you traitorous fucks,” Smith stated, flipping off any reporter who looked like they were from east of her province. “The sooner this gets done, the sooner I can start looking for new ways to hurt endangered wildlife and complain about how no one ever gives Alberta anything.”

I see a lot of 2 person ridings in this list. Looks like the Greens have not been able to get a full slate, and there is only a handful of CentreBC and OneBC candidates. We will see if that changes significantly when the final list is published.
This solidifies my thought that this is going to be a really tough 2-way race with the other parties only competitive in a handful of other ridings, but that is still really important because if the two main parties stay neck and neck, then the handful of 3 or more party race could decide the balance of power in a minority government.
I am surprised to see one of the ridings next-door to mine, Nanaimo-Gabriola Island, has just two candidates as well. It is an important and active riding.

Implementing some real price controls on oil and gas companies is a good thing. This is a new step beyond the easy tax holidays that take money away from provincial revenues.
Would like to see this across the country but Carney is probably too afraid of the Alberta referendum to do it right now. (rightly so, I suppose)
"Eby says his government would ask the B.C. Utilities Commission to set the maximum price that fuel stations can charge, which would be updated weekly as the benchmark price for crude oil fluctuates.”
Would rather the taxes stay in place and *we* control the price up and down, not the oil companies making massive profits from war and climate destruction.

Two new polls out over the past couple days. Since one of them is Léger, I’ve enlarged the screenshot to be able to see the last Léger poll, which was way back at the start of June.
I’m not sure any kind of trend can really be taken from these. Both the #BCNDP and the #CPBC have weaker numbers than their highs in the summer. The CPBC might have a slight lead overall, but it seems to also be within the margin of error of 2 of the 3 post-snap-election-call polls.
I would really like to see a Mainstreet poll, as they had OneBC at a huge 11% in the spring. The other parties taking random seats here and there are a real wildcard in this election As is the Greens picking up 1 or 2 more seats (I cannot see them losing their existing 2 seats).
Any scenario were the Greens and small rightwing parties get a handful of seats makes a minority government nearly inescapable.
I don’t think anyone can realistically predict anything from these polls, but at the same time, as the caller of the election, the NDP should be having a big think right about now.

“USA has used virtually all of its long range precision missiles”
Iran is attacking with its ballistics and some drones… but you also know that it, likely with considerable support from Russia, is probably also developing many more long range drones like Ukraine has.
And that is where it is all going to turn on its head.
Like @… said in his most recent video. The world of warfare has changed forever. Drones are equivalent to the change from horse calvary to tank.
Yet outside of Ukraine and Russia, other militaries have not yet changed their procurement, let alone their force structure, to be prepared to fight wars using drones.
That doesn’t mean there won’t be be a place for conventional Air Force, Tank regiments, and a Navy, but all will have to be done with some lens of drone warfare baked in.
The longer Trump’s idiotic foray with the Israeli Prime Minister lasts, the more likely it is that we see Iran deploy long range drones in massive numbers.
At that point perhaps NATO countries, and other militaries, will truly realize the change that needs to happen.

”Kalicum and Nyx were convicted of trafficking last year after admitting to buying the pure drugs on the dark web, then selling them to their members.
Murray’s ruling says that running such a safer-supply program was precisely what the applicants were doing and that formed the basis of the criminal charges against them.
She says the applicants in this case have borne the burden of bringing a successful constitutional challenge, doing a public interest service at considerable cost to themselves.

In case you need to be reminded, Canada. It seems to have finally started to sink in to at least some American pundits:
David Frum:
“As Trump has declared over and over again, his ultimate goal in this trade war is to add Canada as a 51st state.”

Since we’re in a provincial election in BC, I guess we have to look to the polls. The campaign is so short… final voting day is less than a month away, and advance voting starts in just 18 days!
The Angus Reid poll that came out last week — which surveyed people just before and after the snap call — made big waves showing the #CPBC Conservatives ahead.
But it’s worth noting that Angus Reid is often the first to show a Conservative advantage when others show the opposite.

I have to wonder if Mrs. Asper is allowing her own Jewish family roots and political bias to show through…
Seems pretty blatant that first the Liberal Minister of Culture and Heritage, and now the longtime Liberal supporting family is getting play in the media (which they used to own in part) demanding “context" to an exhibit about the Nakba.
Izzy Asper was the leader of the Manitoba Liberal Party along with being the patriarch of one of the most powerful media conglomerates in Canada, until it was swallowed up by other billionnaire family media company people.
The *only* impartial voice here with a proven track record for understanding and communicating history fairly is the Canadian Museum for Human Rights.
Period.
Hey Billionnaires: your money does NOT mean you get to call the shots when it comes to national museums.
If you want to do that, get back into the local newspapers you abandoned.

Eby is speaking on #TheAmericanFascist being the main reason. For stability, etc etc. #TradeWar
But this is also a cynical and opportunistic power grab timed to take advantage of chaos in the BC Conservative and generally the centre-right and right-wing of BC politics.
My main ask for the future government will be to stabilize our democracy with proportional representation.

It’s official. The attack on our cultural reach, including in French, and trying to limit our international trading partnerships, was a direct attack on Canada 🇨🇦 as a sovereign country.
We will not be the 51st state. Never.
Not even Alberta.
The USA is a hostile country.
Americans: this is on you. All of you. Fix it. Canada will make your life exactly as difficult as ours is, because of your President. Our leaders are now seriously talking about taxing or limiting energy exports to your country as we pivot to the welcoming embrace of the rest of the world.
Only you can fix this.

Wab Kinew to the CBC today.
“Prime Minister Carney didn’t exactly beg the provinces to lift the booze ban… but what is one level before that?”
#canpoli #carneyCaveIn #ElbowsDown #cdnpoli #trade #usa #theAmericanFascist

Statement from @… leader of the #NDP on trade talks.
"The Prime Minister was right to walk away from the negotiating table last night. I believe Canadians are united in this crucial moment, on this crucial point: no deal is better than a bad deal.
Accepting a deal that would lock in pointless, destructive tariffs and undermine our ability to regulate big tech would have been disastrous for our workers, industries and sovereignty. PM Carney read the room by rejecting the Americans’ offer.
Wab Kinew got it exactly right — the President is weak and cannot be trusted to abide by an agreement. We should stand firm, knowing it’s what the vast majority of Canadians want our government to do.
But what happens next matters. We are not out of this yet.
You can count on New Democrats to be a voice for swift and substantial aid to affected workers and industries. This is also a moment to rapidly transition to an economy that is more independent, that prioritizes housing, health, climate and the cost of living.
What brings us together and makes us strong is how we take care of each other in hard times. That’s the Canada the NDP will fight for in this crisis moment and those to come."

This is a great article about the preparations Alberta Elections is going through to enable the 10-question, hand counted, referendum on October 20!
Which of course includes Question 10 on whether to pursue a second referendum on separation from Canada, which will be counted first.
Each voter will be handed 10 colour coded ballots that will then each go into one of 10 colour coded boxes to make counting, and presumably securing the votes, easier.
Question 10 will be counted first and they expect those results to be available after 1AM on October 21.

Is the party ending or are they just admitting it's bad and will carry on as usual. And are governments who were and are all too happy to try to hop on the bandwagon (*cough* Carney *cough*) going to understand that we need to put this genie back in the bottle!?
"Executives working on AI at Microsoft and OpenAI admitted what its critics have been saying all along: Large language models are predatory pieces of technology that have been built on what a Microsoft executive called “an astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions,” and the “largest theft of labor in human history.” An internal Microsoft document said generative AI products have created a “doom loop” that is killing “the entire web.” "

Mark Carney thought he was "selling a bridge" to poor stupid Donald Trump. Welp, looks like we're the ones who got sold down the river.
Seems all of Donald's deals go bad for him…. except with Canada. Nice work banker guy, nice work.
"the agreement makes no mention of Canada’s interest expenses or debt payments related to the bridge.... Under the original deal, Canada paid the entire C$6.4 billion ($4.6 billion) construction cost on the condition that it would collect all the toll revenue until it was repaid.”

The Trade Rep for Canada, Minister LeBlanc just said he's not going to be concerned about what an official says... “on a US Social network”.
Interesting choice of words. Is there a mind shift happening?

They know they’re lying to themselves….. they are the manifestation of the right wing fever dream.
““Our counterterrorism doctrine has had a blind spot when it comes to extremist violence from the political left. Even today, the very idea that far-left terrorism could be a serious threat is treated as a right-wing fever dream.””
I can’t believe Carney actually sent people to this “event”…. And yet I can…
The claims in this statement are batshit crazy, and also classic propaganda that could have been pulled from Goebbels’ own notes. This is fascist, Neo-Nazi, Neo McCarthyism, red scare bullshit.

Mark Carney just implied, as a former Central Banker of Canada and the UK, that there is a market correction coming…. And if economies are not prepared, they will suffer.

Oh look! The Carney Government and Trump Administration have at least some things in common: Criticism and tone policing of actual history that their government doesn’t appreciate.
“President Donald Trump on Friday ordered the installation of signs outside the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History that warn people that the museum does not accurately reflect American history while pointing them to material that does — a dramatic escalation in his campaign to wrest control of how the nation’s story is told.”
