That many Poles didn’t see it and elected him saddens me : /

Ca semble totalement absurde

I actually agree.

Religion is like sex. I’m not against it. But you should do it at home or in a building designed for that. Don’t do that at work or in the streets. And don’t do it with children.

Fair enough

This is the fourth time you post this. Are you going to follow me across the website?

This is a great decision for housing affordability and transit. It’s also good for the environment. Reducing urban sprawl means protecting valuable land.

It’s incredibly sad that it took so long for this to happen.

This should have happened decades ago.

L’autre était un gars abominable. Donc je pense que oui.

What Marc Carney should do :

• Invest in nuclear technology

• Create tough fuel efficiency norms. Canadians currently drive the least fuel-efficient vehicles in the entire world. Canada aligned its vehicle norms with the United States. An incredibly stupid decision.

• A carbon tax that wires money directly to Canadians every month to change incentives simply won’t work. It’s good in theory but it has become politically toxic because of Pierre Poilievre’s AX THE TAX campaign.

• Consider politically acceptable measures to reduce meat consumption or help cattle farmers transition from to chicken farming. I have no idea what those measures could be. I feel any decision will lead to complete hysteria from the far-right.

• Reform the Federal Lobbying Act to significantly increase the powers of the Lobbying Commissioner.

• Cut ALL Microsoft Office and Microsoft Windows contracts from all government departments. Switch to Linux and LibreOffice. Save billions.

• Require all car ads to encourage people to walk, bike or take public transit for short term distances. France has this rule.

• Announce there will be no federal housing money for cities that don’t get rid of parking mandates.

• Create National Wildfire Fund to help Wildfire victims. The fund will be funded by a $1 tax on all flights and a 1% sales tax on all Plastic Bottles. Going above that would lead to popular backlash.

• Significantly increase taxes on private jet fuel. It’s currently barely taxed. You could multiply the price by 3 or 4 and private jet users would not even feel it.

• Massive investment in the train network. New rail stations all across the country.

• Build high speed train line between London-Toronto-Ottawa-Montreal-Quebec. A high speed train line between Edmonton-Calgary. It just makes sense.

What Marc Carney will actually do:

• ???

Who says we needed another pipeline, Pierre?

The same people that want to ban bike lanes and encourage gas-guzzling SUVs.

Pierre Poilievre has the oil industry dick so far up-his ass it’s not even funny anymore

He pledged to get rid of single-use plastic bans:

He was defeated, but he still arguing about Canada needs more plastics:

We can’t get everybody to agree on any basic fact, even the basic fact that we need a pipeline

Who is “we”?

You run for office with the electorate you have, not the electorate you wish you had.

400 000 people have been killed in Sudan recently. I didn’t see you post about it. Take a look in the mirror before claiming you have the moral high ground over her.

So … become more like the climate deniers and billionaire mafia?

You remind of US democrats attacking Marie Gluesenkamp Perez.

She won a tough race in a rural conservative area. She agrees with progressives on labor rights, abortion, medicaid, medicare, increasing taxes on the rich.

Yet leftists living in New York City are attacking her online because she never talks about Palestine 🤦

There is no environmental policy that is compatible with the existence of individuals with the net worth of a small sovereign nation.

I agree. Billionaires are a huge problem.

Yes, eat the rich.

This slogan is how you lose an election.

First lesson of politics: You don’t need to win your supporters. You can’t convince your enemies. You need to win those who are unsure

Did you actually read the article?

One of the Greens’ key problems is personnel. At their peak in 2021 they had two lead figures in Annalena Baerbock and Robert Habeck, who were widely regarded as pragmatists – a prerequisite for effective government in Germany’s compromise-oriented system

The party elected a new leadership duo – Franziska Brantner, 45, and Felix Banaszak, 35 – and new Green Youth leaders: the climate activist Jakob Blasel and the self-proclaimed “leftwing radical” Jette Nietzard.

You could practically hear the collective sigh of relief at the top of the party when Nietzard announced that she wouldn’t run for the Green Youth leadership again this autumn. She has repeatedly alienated the centrist voter groups the Greens are trying to win back, appearing in clothing imprinted with the anti-police acronym “ACAB” and the anti-capitalist slogan “Eat the rich”. Last month she pondered whether resistance to any future government coalition containing the far-right AfD should be “intellectual or perhaps with weapons”.

It’s not about policies. It’s about not saying stupid shit.

You don’t get elected by saying stupid shit to only appeal to your base.

This is a mask-off moment.

Good

Almost half of the country almost voted for a guy defending single-use plastics

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/poilievre-scrap-plastics-ban-1.7514037

Look at Justin Trudeau. He actually tried to take small measures.

For instance, he banned oil tankers of the BC coast. Many scientists would tell you he didn’t do enough for the environment. Under his leadership, Canadian oil production actually increased.

You read that right. Canadian oil production increased under Justin Trudeau.

Despite this, he was demonized. The opposition claimed he humiliated Alberta and ruined the oil industry. Every small decision he took was publically denounced.

Now Danielle Smith and Scott Morison, two powerful Premiers, are publically demanding this:

• Repealing/overhauling the Environmental Assessment Act
• Eliminating the proposed oil and gas emissions cap;
• Scrapping the Clean Electricity Regulations;
• Get rid of the BC coast oil tanker ban
• Stop requiring companies to sell electric vehicles
• Repealing any law or regulation that regulates carbon emissions, plastics, or the commercial free speech of energy companies.

The law against green-washing? Gone. Limiting single use plastics? Gone. Banning huge tankers of the coast of British Columbia? Gone.

It’s not just the oil companies.

It’s the politics.
