@Soph4Future Seek out kindred spirits. We can do little alone, it takes a village. Learn more about how to find common ground among people of wildly differing opinions & beliefs, listen & look for bridges. Take action that has measurable results. Most of all, ENJOY getting real things done.

@BurntNortonENV @CanadianPM @MarkJCarney - please note the date on this ZEV Mandate suggestion! https://t.co/9BoDOBPqTj

[Brian Jantzi @IntrepidENV]

@cathmckenna An ambitious ZEV Mandate will do MUCH more than individual investments to drive EV uptake:
2023 - 10% ZEVs
2026 - 20%
2029 - 40%
2032 - 70%
2035 - 100%
* ZEV credits for carmakers who overachieve on these steps (tradable to laggards)
* ICE-retirement/EV-purchase-incentive program

[Brian Jantzi @IntrepidENV]

@ClimateBen Sadly, this translates as 90% of the human population too!

[Steven Guilbeault @s_guilbeault]

Yep. He is still a MP.

The guy who lost his riding after doing nothing for 20 years then flew to Alberta just to hang on to a seat.

[Brian Jantzi @BurntNortonENV]

As if this needs to be said again?

[Brian Jantzi @BurntNortonENV]

@CanadianPM - A review of the ZEV Availability Standard is in the works! Consider just simplifying it like this! (The legacy fossil fuelled car makers of Canada & the US will complain, ignoring the immediate human health & longer term climate impacts of their toxic emissions).

[Brian Jantzi @BurntNortonENV]

@CanadianPM - here is what a simple & effective flexible Zero Emission Vehicle Mandate looks like! Keep it simple and enforce the deadlines! #ForTheSakeOfOurHealth

If you happen to be in the area, I will be performing a solo acoustic concert at the Barton Street Branch of The Hamilton Public Library on September 26, 2025. Admission is free, thanks to the support of @HamiltonLibrary & @HamiltonGuild

Letter from a supporter to Canadian PM candidates

Guaranteed Basic Income is a floor to solve poverty.

Universal Basic Income is a dividend to share common wealth.

It's the perfect duo.

[UBI Works 🇨🇦 @ubi_works]

Recap

- Canada's spending way more on poverty ($90B/yr) than a basic income could cost
- It addresses the root cause of crime, empowers women and abuse victims
- No study has shown major reduction in work

Critics continue to ignore decades of evidence

[Brian Jantzi @IntrepidENV]

I emailed every Liberal leadership candidate urging them to support basic income. Join me.

@OilGasCanada As a former member of Finance Canada’s Tradable Permits Working Group - a group that CAPP co-chaired (1999-2000) - a hard declining cap on oil & gas emissions is decades long long overdue!

The images and stories just beginning to emerge from eastern TN and western NC in the aftermath of widespread catastrophic flooding wrought by #Helene are genuinely horrifying, and the full scale of the disaster is likely as yet untold. #TNwx #NCwx [Thread: 1/n]

It’s disappointing when people believe that name-calling and juvenile, grade-school bullying are desirable leadership qualities. In adults, this behaviour betrays a lack of moral fibre and a cruel, selfish nature. No wonder Pyotr Poilievre is a favourite of Putin. 1/2

[Terry T. 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @terry_truchan]

A question for @PierrePoilievre

What will Canadian companies do when $5 Billion dollars of export trade to Europe is tariffed because we have no carbon tax ?
The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is a policy initiative by the EU.

[Steven Guilbeault @s_guilbeault]

It’s official— the NDP will always cave to pressure from Pierre Poilievre for their own political interests… even if it is at the expense of our environment and our children’s future.

@cbctom @CBC I was on Reach for the Top in 1969 with the team from Central Tech in Toronto. Alex Trebek was host, Bill Paul the warm up round host. We won the warm up round and lost the televised round.

[Brian Jantzi @IntrepidENV]

@s_guilbeault Border net carbon tariffs are a VERY GOOD IDEA!

eg, Gov’t can do cap&trade for trade-exposed-industry emissions & phase-out exemptions.

Non-carbon tariffs on Chinese EVs are WRONG & undermines govt EV Mandate!
@FordCanada cancels Oakville EVs, builds trucks & laughs at govt!
