A @globeandmail headline claimed gasoline prices in #Vancouver are "sky-high." Relative to those in most other developed economies they aren't. And the US Highway Trust Fund is broke due to a failure to raise taxes since 1993. #ClimateEmergency https://t.co/GBapbumHaO

"We have done this before... when Canada joined WWII we changed the focus of our entire economy -- creating new crown corporations and introducing limits on profit." -Councillor @christineeboyle on a #GreenNewDeal
We are proud to support th Pact for a #GreenNewDeal
Not good enough, PM who bought a pipeline. We need to do better:
✅ Tax super-rich to fund just transition
✅ End fossil fuel subsidies
✅ Invest in public transit & high speed rail
✅ Invest in energy efficient non-market housing
✅ New Crown corp for Decarbonization

Can y'all see the construction of infrastructure across the country?
Nope, you're right because it never came to being. Trudeau promised massive transit, city sewer and water services, affordable housing, green energy projects and much more.
He didn't do it.

1/ Thread from @globalbc story. Stay with me on this because it’s important to be honest and factual with British Columbians. This is too important to let BS political spin get in the way. #bcpoli#vanre#cdnpoli https://t.co/5N20AtZti5
