Nothing in Mark Carney's budget makes me believe he cares about fighting climate change, because the plan is to give hand-outs to all of the industries at the root of the problem.

Also Adolf Hitler took a look at Canada's attempted genocide on the people Indigenous to these lands and copied from it.

I wrote about this in the Guardian a few weeks ago and concluded that we’re building a surveillance state lockstep with the Americans.
This is a great thread 🧡 and I encourage you to read it because Canadians need to be aware of how precious our data is and how it can be weaponized against us

Promoters of carbon capture and storage are serious about one thing: keeping the oil and gas industry alive long enough to profit as much as they can off of destroying the planet.

There are many other ways to better deal with the budget. Removing all oil subsidies for one. Another would be a tax on billionaires and millionaires.

Every nth of a degree is worth keeping down and every life that will be in jeopardy because of climate collapse is worth fighting for.

There is no "too late." There will always be work to do.

I highly disagree with that grade, especially the military spending, but I'm not looking to debate about it to be honest.

I don't know that a weakened NDP and a CPC that is game for what Carney has been proposing is going to lead to an election though, even once it's in the best interest of Cdns

It actually breaks my heart to think that people are turning to ChatGPT to mitigate their loneliness.

We're all struggling to create and then maintain deep, meaningful connections (and capitalism stacks the odds against us), but I can't think of a worse solution than generative AI. But I get why.

Too many rules? Carney orders review of all government regulations | CBC News Prime Minister Mark Carney is enacting a cross-departmental review of all regulations starting Wednesday, a measure he promised during the federal election campaign.

On top of austerity, we’re also looking at further deregulation. The political right did a great job of vilifying Trudeau to set the stage for a right-wing turn in Canadian politics.

Here’s the thing: unfettered gov access to personal data means they can easily target you for whatever purpose and you have no control.
Also: the likelihood of consolidating data is higher, which means the government can access your data to track you
I cannot tell you how dangerous this tech is

Mark Carney rode anti-Trump rhetoric to power, only to cave to corporate interests, adopt MAGA-lite policies, and betray the very voters who put him in office.
