It's been 3 months since Carney & Smith signed their MoU for a new bitumen oil pipeline to the west coast.
With an April 1 deadline for a final deal with the oil industry less than a month away, how are negotiations for this “grand bargain” going? #cdnpoli #ableg www.desmog.com/2026/03/05/m...

TALK WITH OTHERS! NEW POLLING SHOWS : 58% of Canadians say transitioning away from fossil fuels toward renewable energy is more important than ever, in light of U.S. aggression. 59% believe Canada would be safer if it produced more renewable energy. 67% say reliance on oil and gas increases the risk of international conflict.
Canadians are strongly opposed to foreign aggression to secure access to natural resources. 70% say that it’s completely unacceptable for one country to use military force to take control of another nation’s resources. 72% percent say it would be unacceptable for the United States to have arrested Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro to access oil reserves. 80% say it would be unacceptable for the United States to seize Greenland for its natural resources.
New poll conducted after the U.S. actions in Venezuela and threats to seize Greenland finds that a majority of Canadians believe made-in-Canada renewable energy is MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER for strengthening Canada’s national security.

Your pension savings are at risk – and climate change is already reshaping the economy. Some funds are stepping up, others are falling behind. Where does your pension stand?

Stephen Lecce says Darlington was “on budget & ahead of schedule.” OPG’s own filings say it’s at least 25% over budget and needs 6 more years. The truth matters.

Last week, Shift released our 2025 Report Card, comparing the climate policies of Canada’s largest public pension managers.
Our national pension manager, CPPIB, received an overall D grade on climate – the second-lowest score among major Canadian pension funds. win.newmode.net/shiftaction/...
“It’s like you realized you bought a Temu gas plant with AliExpress discount parts and you need to get out of it, because the liability risk is going through the roof."

The difference between the president and I is that I was raised to be a decent human being, and my faith teaches me to have compassion.
He lacks both of those things.
Scott says he saw one institutional fund manager from Europe roll their eyes at the mention of CPPIB. “I’ve had finance managers just gave that face, like, ‘really? Still? They still don’t get it? What year is it?’” #cdnpoli www.theenergymix.com/canada-pensi...

Who is first in line to earn billions from the U.S. invasion of Venezuela? 👉 Fossil fuel execs.
But without their financiers - big banks - none of this would be possible.
