“These cuts strip away science-based expertise on climate change, forest fires, and sustainable resource management,” said Shimen Fayad, UHEW national president. “Canada’s climate — and future generations — will feel the impact.” www.nationalobserver.com/2025/12/05/n...

As the Climate Emergency Unit nears the end of its 5-year mission, we've just released a bunch of useful long-term resources. Check 'em out 👇

Mark Carney’s pact with Danielle Smith is climate carnage ⋆ The Breach Author and analyst Seth Klein joins Desmond Cole to break down how Carney and Smith have fulfilled Big Oil’s entire wish list

PM Mark Carney and premier Danielle Smith may never get a pipeline from Alberta to the Pacific, but they're working to link Canada's energy future to fossil fuel production

I spoke with @sethdklein.bsky.social about the climate carnage

Climate change advisers quit over Carney government’s energy deal with Alberta Two departing members of Canada's Net-Zero Advisory Body say the Carney government is shredding any hope the country will meet its climate goals.

PM Carney subsidizes Big Oil to pump carbon to increase production.
He walks back greenwashing rules allowing Big Oil to lie.
He cuts a deal on planet killing methane.
Now his team is walking.
The CEO isn't smartest guy in the room when it comes to a burning planet.

Mark Carney’s deal with Alberta’s Danielle Smith is the climate sell-out of the century.

@sethdklein.bsky.social joins @desmondcole.bsky.social to break down everything it contains, including pipelines, AI data centres, and a rollback of almost every Trudeau-era climate policy.

Vancouver cuts to housing retrofits will be 'responsible for lost lives' Funding for the city's existing buildings retrofit program was nixed in a last-minute amendment brought forward by ABC Councillor Lenny Zhou to Mayor Ken Sim's controversial 2026 budget.

The word 'retrofit' is insufficient to explain the programs Vancouver's ABC party is cutting, said planning Holly Caggiano, a professor at UBC. "It kind of makes it sound like this is a luxury, but cooling and living in a safe home is a human right." www.nationalobserver.com/2025/12/04/n...

On Dec 3, the CEU bid farewell to friends and allies as our five-year project with the David Suzuki Institute came to a close.

We reflected on lessons learned, celebrated the coalitions carrying this work forward & released resources we hope will strengthen climate advocacy for years to come.

GRAPHIC: A Green New Deal for Canada

It’s time for the NDP to tell the truth: we must get off fossil fuels fast—with no worker left behind.

Today I’m unveiling our Green New Deal: a plan to tackle both the climate and affordability crises by creating 1M good jobs, lowering bills, and building a new economy.

It was time a decade ago. It's way past time now.

Enviro studies graduates tell me that the only jobs on offer are in oil and gas.

That is cruel.

They desperately want to be part of building a thriving future, not burning it down.

They have the skills, they deserve the opportunities.

My fav line from the MOU (what they now mean by net-zero): the parties commit to "reducing the emissions intensity of Canadian heavy oil production to best in class in terms of the average for heavy oil by 2050.”

If you torture the English language enough it will confess to anything.
