As of August 2025, there's still an active ICC arrest warrant for Vladimir Putin, issued on March 17, 2023, over allegations of war crimes involving the unlawful deportation and transfer of Ukrainian children.

Unfortunately, the US is not a party to the ICC, and has no obligation to arrest Putin.

Canada plans a 15% budget cut. Scientists are alarmed Cuts could erase promised boost, researchers fear

If we're smart we won't just maintain research spending but expand it and poach as many bright minds from the US as possible. We could greatly benefit from a US brain drain. #canadasky #science

Where does Carney stand on Canada's 2030 climate targets? It's not clear | CBC News CBC Radioโ€™s The House takes a look at whether Canada is on track to meet its climate targets under Prime Minister Mark Carney.

One more thing that Carney must juggle. The only oil pipeline we *need* is a Line 5 replacement. A natural gas pipeline to the East Coast. That's it. IMO we should be funding charging infrastructure and subsidizing EV purchases. #climatechange #Canadasky #cdnpoli
