170 ton of metallurgical coal needed to produce all of the steel used for that one turbine. 140+ cubic metres of concrete need for that base. Put simply, clean energy is a dirty affair.
Amid the mud and blood, Major John McCrae wrote the poem that taught the world how to remember.
In Flanders Fields wasn’t just poetry — it was a promise that we would remember their sacrifice.
And unlike Canada's current national anthem,
The True North remembers all thy sons.
In Flanders fields, the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
Put 100 women and 10 men on an island.
In 100 years you will have a community of men, women, boys, and girls..
Put 100 Trans Women and 10 men on an island.
In 100 years you'll find the skeletons of 110 men.
Get pissed all you want, these are the facts..
@CheriDiNovo Not to mention the cost of raw materials and labour are much higher, any thing involving the government will surely end up millions over budget with a few money laundering scandals sprinkled on top
@TheGodfath85404 @miket136 @czusafirearms @thecoltfirearms You are correct, if every American stopped buying CZ products it would bury them
But unfortunately for us, very few Americans will boycott them to support another nations gun rights issues
@yegwave What a joke, imagine just for a minute if we kept our own money in our country instead of shipping billions abroad, maybe then would we be able to have ambulances to take our folks to hospitals instead of fuckin taxis
The first residential opened in 1828. Sir John A MacDonald was 12 and 39 years away from being prime minister. The schools ran for 100 years after he died.
@PrairieVeteran What is with the freedom grifters latching onto to every animal slaughter yet ignoring the slaughter of our own people in our own homes in our own nation
@Stockwell_Day The world is watching as spineless freedom grifters throw all their time and energy at a pile of birds rather than the massive influx of uneducated, system milking, violent rapist scum flooding our once great nation
@JhWesten Well Mr Pope,
In Canada our spineless government has been trying live by your words, forgiving criminals and giving them bail and light sentences for crimes that the people would likely see them hanged for.
It’s not only an utter failure but an extreme injustice to the victims
