Private companies know there’s no business case for more pipelines when renewables have never been cheaper, cleaner, and faster to deploy. So the government is about to invest OUR money instead.
Most Canadians agree: NO taxpayer-funded pipelines >> act.gp/4pydJhN

Promising to build more nuclear power is a political path to climate action delay and a distraction from a sustainable and decarbonized energy system transition.

Shifting Ontario's funding to PRIVATE CLINICS is a PROVEN POLICY FAILURE.
It costs more
It poaches scarce healthcare workers

The pipeline would be the first project to receive the designation since Ottawa passed Bill C-5 more than a year ago. The act gives Ottawa the power to issue special conditions for projects covering a dozen federal laws in order to help them proceed.

A better way to break strikes. Smh
Steven MacKinnon on 'modernizing' labour relations: "We do have too many conflicts, lockouts and strikes, or threats of either of those in the country. It harms investment, harms employment, maybe even particularly in unionized environments. So we need a better framework for getting to agreements between employers and their employees."

totally insane clip.
She starts with a clear ‘no’, the legislation won’t limit labour’s ability to strike, then basically explains the mechanism through which the legislation WILL limit their ability to strike, all while continuing to rhetorically maintain that it won’t!
