“There’s no transition [to Net Zero] that works without nuclear, full stop,” Carney said at the company investor day Thursday. #Nuclear#FridayVibes

Fact check time.
Older data centres required massive amounts of water and took large amounts of electricity from the grid. What Alberta is building is the complete opposite.
@meta's Sturgeon Data Centre will use a closed-loop, liquid-cooled system with dry cooling that requires no operational water use for cooling. In fact, it will use less water than an average Alberta golf course.
The data centre campus will be developed under Alberta’s “bring your own power” approach. Rather than relying solely on Alberta’s electricity grid, the project will combine grid-connected electricity with generation from a new $4.6 billion private-sector funded on-site natural gas power plant, helping protect grid reliability. This will benefit electricity customers across the province by reducing transmission costs by up to six per cent on Albertans’ utility bills.
Appreciated meeting with industry leaders at the @Calpeteclub to make our case to unapologetically leverage Canada's natural resource bounty.
It is simply unacceptable that our nation blessed with the third-largest proven oil reserves on Earth still relies on the U.S. for critical pipeline infrastructure and refined oil.
From the Northern Shield Energy Corridor to the largest nuclear expansion in North America, faster mining approvals, and unlocking the Ring of Fire, Ontario is proving that when governments have the courage to act, Canada can build big again.
I’m convinced that the most underrated trait in life is the willingness to change your mind. Certainty isn't strength. The most impressive people change their minds often in response to new information. It’s a software update. The goal isn't to be right. It's to find the truth.
We’re using Canada’s natural advantage: to build world-class energy projects that bring down costs, create thousands of new high-paying careers, and lower emissions.
We’re building a cleaner future that only Canada can.
Carney: The truth is, nobody knows how long the global economy will rely on conventional energy. But while it does, as much of that energy as possible should come from Canada.
In life, you must choose your regrets.
“You'll regret it if you get married. You'll regret it if you don't get married. You'll regret it if you have kids, and you'll regret it if you don't.
Kierkegaard said this 200 years ago as follows:
‘Whatever you choose, you'll regret it. Because the problem isn't in your choices; it's in romanticizing a life you haven't lived.
A person always finds an untraveled path alluring and mysterious.
That's why the issue isn't making the right choice.
It's choosing and deciding which regret you'll live with.’
What have you decided?” — Salih Guney
Well done.
What we have allowed to happen to this historic residence is a national disgrace.
It is past time that we restore 24 Sussex Drive to being a suitable, dignified official residence for Canada’s head of government.
Let this be the beginning of a broader effort to recover, protect and renew Canada’s heritage.
But for goodness sake: let’s get on with it. Don’t let this project become yet another advertisement for our recent inability to get things done.
It's actually mind-boggling that @JDVance would say Watergate would be a "10 hour story" today.
Just to review, Nixon's aides authorized a break-in of the DNC HQ to install bugging equipment--in a caper foiled by a night watchman, who called police. They then enlisted the CIA to mislead the FBI that the break-in was related to a probe of malign foreign actors.
The entire operation was paid for by a slush fund controlled by the WH.
The WH also enlisted the IRS to probe hundreds of Nixon's political enemies.
The AG, the WH COS and several other top aides all were convicted and served time for their involvement in the crimes and coverup.
Nixon was caught on his own secret tape system conspiring with them but was pardoned a month after he resigned by his successor, Gerald Ford.
That Vance thinks this would be a "10 hour story" today speaks volumes about the moral and ethical degradation of the Trump era.
At a time of global uncertainty, Canada is focused on what we can control – building strength at home by advancing major projects.
We are initiating the process toward the potential listing of three major projects – the Mackenzie Valley Highway Project, the Grays Bay Road and Port Project, and the Deep Geological Repository – as projects of national interest under the Building Canada Act.
These projects will spur economic growth, strengthen Canada’s sovereignty, security and resilience, open new trade routes, unlock critical minerals development, and support Canada’s nuclear energy future – all while supporting Indigenous partnership and participation.

Major cheat code for life: Assume good things are still ahead. You are not behind. You are not too late. You are not disqualified by your past. One new season can change the entire story. Keep showing up with belief. The best chapters are often written after the hardest ones.
Switzerland v Canada is the World Cup’s only group-stage match where both teams have a rare triple-point watershed.
At Switzerland’s Pass Lunghin, water can flow to the North, Black, or Adriatic seas. Canada’s Snow Dome drains to the Pacific, Arctic, or Hudson/Atlantic system.
