Hmm, only $140c/L you say.

$176.9 on #vancouverisland today. Pretty much back to pre-carbon tax removal.

And they killed the #EV rebates to pay for it!

I'm waiting for #Poilievre to call out the #FossilFuels companies for this! 😜

@evan
My basil is sprouting! I feel hopeful..

@evan Do not ignore the polls. Vote strategically.

@feld @GossiTheDog

Only if you use Imperial measurements instead of metric 😜

@benroyce

There are more cases. A local #BC gal was detained the other day:

Judging by the incredulity on display in some recent interviews, it seems like most high profile Americans are simply unaware of how deeply insulting all of this is.

@davidaugust @EUCommission

Awesome! 👏 👏 😆

@petergleick
This is how parliamentary democracies work.

In Canada whenever a minister makes an announcement the opposition critic immediately issues and counter announcement to try to shape the narrative. Its annoying as shit some times but it is quite effective. Some politicians excel at this kind of thing.

I find is so strange that in the #USA there seems be a complete vacuum where the opposition should be.

All the celebs who were previously openly supporting the Dems are now strangely silent.

Cory on #CBC Day 6 nails it!

She is so cool. Such grace in the face of such depravity..

@pluralistic

Yes, attacking the ludicrous IP rules we were goaded into agreeing to is a great approach. Even the threat of it should be enough to get them flapping. Love the idea, also love this line:

"Countries that are organized around resource extraction don't need fancy social safety nets or an educational system capable of producing a high-tech workforce. All you need to extract resources is a hole in the ground surrounded by guns, which explains a lot about shifts to the Canadian political climate since the Mulroney years."

Thats been the one thread of hope since their win, that they will be as chaotic and unproductive as last time. A 25 km section of border wall heralded as a great success then it will all be over.

@pluralistic

Great essay! What can us Canadians do to make our activities 'legal"?

As a fixer and tinkerer I enjoy keeping old shit working long after it has been declare trash by others. And the printer ink thing makes my blood boil.

@kegill @pluralistic

💯 Totally on board with this. I read Cory's article this morning and realized that is exactly what I was complaining to my banker about a few months back. I would love to give #RBC the boot but it would just be so painful and costly. It should be as easy as changing cell phone provider (or #Mastodon instance for that matter).

Then again these new rules are only for USA. Canadian banks will continue to rape and pillage til the cows come home.

@GottaLaff
"People who are generally loving and incapable of treachery cannot comprehend those who are not"

That was a line in a play the other night and it stuck with me. Kind of an ah ha moment..

What happened to trigger the jump in new #Mastodon users this week? Was it the #Telegram thing?

@darnell Hydrogen! Nuclear powered ships would be far too expensive and hazardous.
