Interesting. Reporting from AlJazeera in Tehran says Iran’s Foreign Minister has spoken to their counterparts in the UK and Canada since the US strikes and will now be going to Moscow for meetings with Putin/Lavrov on Monday.

All the talk from the G7 about India and Canada working together to use AI for government "efficiency" sounds a lot like outsourcing our education and public services to a call centre.
This Liberal government seems hellbent on destroying the public service and public programs.

Elizabeth May is up soon after, presenting a petition on Elector Reform and urging a Citizen's Assembly.

Genocidal Israeli supporter MP Anthony Housefather in the backbench... but also in a prime ‘TV' spot. Barf. Glad he's at least not in Cabinet (he is Parl Secretary to the President of the Treasury Board Shafqat Ali). #CanPoli #CdnPoli

I missed most of it... Don Davies - Temporary NDP Leader in the House was the last to ask a Question, which at least is a good sign that they will be allowed to have questions. Elizabeth May did not speak, not sure if she was there, but I'd be shocked if she wasnt #CanPoli #CdnPoli

Presenting a petition to

2. End shipbreaking in Baynes Sound.”

Trump leaving Canada's G7 meeting early to go do war things is pretty on brand for a fascist, but also for pretty much every USA President.

I am sure Trump had no desire to see Zelensky and risk a repeat of his embarrassing performance while surrounded with people who also think he is a dangerous fool.
He's an ambusher... not ambushee.

The good news is, now the adults on the Good Guys side can have a proper discussion on how to keep Putin (and Iran and Israel) from making things even worse.

2 years later, my Freedom of Information Request shows a snapshot of Government ignoring Vancouver Islanders for 20 years.
On June 28, 2023 I submitted a Request for Information to the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure of British Columbia for documents related to the Island Railway on Vancouver Island. It took two years to receive the response.

TIL the last time Canada spent 2% of GDP on defence spending (no date was given) we had Aircraft Carriers in our Navy.
The Bonaventure was the last Canadian aircraft carrier. And no, it wasn't a hand-me-down, though it began construction for the Royal Navy at the end of WWII but was stopped in 1945 then bought and completed by the RCN.
It was decommissioned and scrapped in 1970. It flew a squadron of F2H Banshee jets for the first few years of its life, then converted to a helicopter carrier for the final years.

Jagmeet Singh deserved a lot better than he got from Canada considering what he endured.
"Singh told reporters in April that police had advised him in the winter of 2023 that his life could be in danger. They did not tell him who was behind the threat but he said the implication was that it was a foreign government.
He said he stayed in his basement, avoided windows and considered quitting politics over fears about his family’s safety. He decided to carry on but was forced to lead the NDP for a period under police protection.”
I hope Carney brings this up with Modi next week, but now with the tragedy of the air crash…

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.

Looks like there is ALOT of redacted/partial disclosures
I'm going to keep a lid on what this is all about other than to say, it's about trains and climate change! lol (which is convenient, given my earlier post this morning)

Fact: Taking a BC Ferry from Metro Vancouver to Vancouver Island is a High CO2 experience, though if it's a full ferry, it's not terrible (~5kgCO2/passenger)
By 2031, BC Ferries will have replaced 18 ferries (big and small!) in 15 years, and nearly all will be 100% electric-ready.
They just announced they're doing the big ships next.
"Built with diesel-battery hybrid propulsion systems and designed with the capability to operate on full electric power in future, the NMVs are expected to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve fuel efficiency, and lower underwater radiated noise to better protect marine life. With greater capacity than the vessels they replace, the NMVs will offer more space for vehicles and passengers and upgraded amenities, supporting a more reliable and comfortable travel experience.”
The age of fossil fuels is ending. Any politician or lobbyist who says otherwise is either not paying attention, or bought.

I am willing to be pleasantly surprised, but... when all I see from these "major projects" is oil and gas and other 20th century backwards nonsense, I can't help but be pessimistic.
Ironically, a real "nation building" project that would be a huge benefit to Canadians would be more akin to something from the 19th century: Standing up a true public railway corporation and rebuilding a high speed electrified rail network from sea to sea to sea that could reduce transportation costs and increase flexibility and convenience for millions of Canadians and businesses including in remote communities.
But our current leadership is too beholden to existing capitalist interests and status quo business to be that bold. And they're positively allergic to anything done purely in the public interest. How dare we not include some profiteering private corporation… /sarc

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."

"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…
