RE: cosocial.ca/@ResearchForTheFro…
Are you as enraged as I am by the new Canada-Alberta energy MOU?
One way you can take action is by supporting communities and grassroots movements that are fighting for climate and environmental justice, including land defenders facing unwanted oil and gas pipelines.
This pipeline will never happen, and we'll make f**cking sure of it.

The "Progressive Conservative" are back in Federal Government. They are just under a different banner.
*Mark Carney ne fait pas semblant d’aimer les pipelines*
Une entente qui vient de provoquer la démission du ministre Steven Guilbeault, qui était peut-être le dernier rempart environnemental dans ce gouvernement. Une entente qui range désormais le Parti libéral résolument du côté de ceux qui sont prêts à sacrifier l’environnement au nom de l’économie.
Jusqu’à la dernière minute, j’avoue avoir cru que M. Carney utilisait un truc, une manœuvre politique.
...
En effet, ma thèse a un peu frappé un mur lorsque j’ai vu l’immense sourire de la première ministre albertaine, Danielle Smith, en conférence de presse jeudi, et que je l’ai entendue parler de « nouveau départ » et de « grande journée pour les Albertains ». La politicienne n’est pas du genre à lancer des fleurs au gouvernement fédéral pour rien, disons. Et elle semblait sincèrement ravie.
Puis, en fin d’après-midi, Steven Guilbeault a claqué la porte du Cabinet, montrant le sérieux de la chose.
Les experts que j’ai contactés m’ont ôté mes dernières illusions.
...
Une autre preuve que Mark Carney est sérieux, c’est ce qu’il met sur la table. L’entente fait tomber une flopée de réglementations environnementales en Alberta.
Le plafond sur les émissions des secteurs pétrolier et gazier conçu par Steven Guilbeault, mais pas encore en vigueur, est suspendu. Mais aux yeux de Kathryn Harrison, professeure de sciences politiques à l’Université de Colombie-Britannique, ce qui fait le plus mal sont sans doute les délais sur les réductions de méthane, un gaz dégagé par les activités pétrolières et qui est encore plus nocif que le CO2 pour le climat. Steven Guilbeault avait accouché d’un règlement pour les abaisser de 75 % d’ici 2030. L’entente parle maintenant de faire la même chose « d’ici dix ans ».
« Il y a aussi l’abandon du Règlement sur l’électricité propre et ce qui semble être un signe de plus grande flexibilité dans la tarification du carbone industriel. J’ai l’impression que d’autres provinces feront maintenant la queue pour obtenir des concessions similaires », dit l’experte.

Entente entre Ottawa et l’Alberta | Mark Carney ne fait pas semblant d’aimer les pipelines

Former environment minister quits Carney’s cabinet

Alberta and Ottawa signed a memorandum of understanding that gives the province special exemptions from federal environmental laws and offers political support for a new oil pipeline to the B.C. coast.
The deal ties approval of “one or more” privately financed pipelines to a carbon capture, utilization and storage project in northeast Alberta.
The pipeline proposal will be submitted to the Major Projects Office by Canada Day.
There are several references to supporting Indigenous “co-ownership” of the pipeline.
The B.C. government is opposed to the pipeline deal, which Premier David Eby said would allow some tanker traffic on the province’s North Coast despite a current ban.
Eby warned that carving out exemptions to a tanker ban “is like explaining to a vegetarian that they’ll still be a vegetarian if they eat a few steaks.”

If you do not have prescription insurance coverage, through your employer, etc., you're obliged to have RAMQ prescription coverage.
However, RAMQ has changed who is eligible and is NOT COVERING COVID-19 VACCINES IF YOU'RE NOT ELIGIBLE.
150$ isn't even what Moderna/Pfizer, etc. spends to make each COVID-19 vaccine.

Good news though... I absolutely cannot see how PP can win his leadership review this winter. And he'll be stuck being a MP in the middle of nowhere 😂
After a Con MP crossed the aisle yesterday... Another Con MP (who was rumoured to cross the aisle) has resigned. And that's after we've heard of talks of threats made to them from PP's team.
🍿
(I really do hope they're not actually getting threatened... I want our politics to be better, damn it)
I’m actually in favour of increasing our military spending, mostly because I anticipate the US deciding at some to point to switch to military means to annex us if their economic measure aren’t successful.
What worries me is how much of this new spending is going to be directed right to the hostile country that’s threatening us.
We should be lessening our dependence on the US militarily just much as we should be should be lessening our dependence on them economically.

Mark Carney promised to increase military spending to two per cent of GDP, and he does so in his first budget. The cost to nearly everything else government does is considerable. https://rabble.rabble.ca (Mastodon)
I encourage every Albertan (and Canadian really) to listen to what UCP MLAs have to say about the notwithstanding clause, it boils down to something very simple:
We support the Canadian Constitution, and that includes the notwithstanding clause, because we believe those rights were never actually meant to be for everybody. We’ll be the judge of who gets rights and who doesn’t.
Their position really is that simple: rights aren’t for everyone.
And that’s why *every* Albertan - every Canadian - should be working to get these people and their ideological cousins (in Ottawa and elsewhere) out of office and as far from any influence in society as possible as quickly as possible.
Thank the gods Carney cut the luxury yacht tax, eh?
No longer will people buying a yacht worth over a quarter of a million dollars be saddled with a luxury tax. Ditto your private jet or helicopter with a value above $100,000. Whew.
Corporations will enjoy a “super-reduction” of more than 2% points to Canada’s marginal effective tax rate, and the 1% tax on foreign-owned vacant housing is gone.
Trudeau's proposed increase to the inclusion rate on the capital gains tax is also scrapped.
