Fuck the IDU and the Nazis they rode in on. We don't need their bullshit here.

HEY! My MP Gord Johns up with the first Petition of the new Parliament!
Presenting a petition to
"Develop enforceable federal standards to reduce the negative environmental and social impacts of ship recycling that meet or exceed those set out in the Hong Kong and EU Conventions for the safe recycling of ships; and
2. End shipbreaking in Baynes Sound.”
Johns: ”THIS IS THE FOURTH YEAR I HAVE TABLED THIS PETITION AND NO ACTION”

Canadians: Replace Ardern with Trudeau and use other Canadian touchstones in place of #nzpol and you have an accurate article for Canada.
Which should speak to what Progressives actually need to do here, and everywhere.
"Ardern’s leadership has often been described as emotionally intelligent, compassionate, and people-centred. But compassion is not liberation. Empathy alone does not redistribute wealth, dismantle police power, or decommodify housing. What Ardern perfected was a mode of governance that couched neoliberalism in progressive language. A style of leadership that appeared anti-fascist, anti-racist, and feminist, while presiding over deepening inequality, mass incarceration of Māori, ongoing colonisation, environmental destruction, and a housing system that serves landlords and property speculators.
Ardern’s “politics of kindness” masked a status quo commitment to capitalism and state power. Her government’s housing policies floundered under the weight of market logic. Despite the crisis of homelessness and unaffordability, the Labour government never seriously considered nationalising housing, implementing rent controls, or seizing vacant properties from land-bankers. Instead, they protected the interests of property investors, many of whom were MPs themselves."

Andrew Sheer is currently spinning a conspiracy theory that “ties” Carney while in the UK to lobbying for “rules" to "force" aviation companies to use "non-conventional" fuel and then “he invests in that company and makes millions”.
And that, folks, is how the Conservatives are going to tie "New World Order" conspiracies to any kind of climate action, even very weak action like Sustainable Airline Fuel.
God I hate this guy's gross smile.

"I don’t believe anyone was thinking about [the] 51st state idea. Truthfully, the intent was to not get political, but to focus on social, cultural, and economic ties."
I hate this nonsense. With great respect and in kindness: Mr. City Councillor in Bellngham needs to put on his big boy pants and admit that yes it is political and yes it is about the 51st state rhetoric and all the scary border stuff from his federal government.
His choice not to admit that and speak against that, and worse, to act like it doesn’t exist, is a further insult and will not help to get BC/Canadians to resume visits.

“An assessment of updated National Climate and Energy Plans (NECPs) shows the EU is on course to achieve a 54 per cent emissions reduction by 2030 - just one per cent shy of its legally binding 55 per cent target.”
Fun fact, if Canada joined the EU it would probably hurt it from an emissions reduction perspective because Oil and Gas.
“It attributed the progress towards the 2030 goal to action in the energy sector, with renewables covering 24 per cent of energy consumption in the EU in 2023. Most member states are now aligned with the target of reaching a share of 42.5 per cent by 2030, according to the Commission.”
Weird how they don’t mention LNG as being a reason why Europe has been able to meet its goals. Almost like renewables are essentially the only way to decarbonize the industry, just like the scientists say it is.
“States have a legal obligation to deliver climate action, and the Commission has a clear responsibility to uphold and enforce EU law in response.”
Imagine Danielle Smith whining about unfair laws…
Wonder how much #bclmg Europe will be asking for…
