This diagram from #Budget2023 tells you everything you need to know about the gov's climate strategy moving forward: market measures come first, and direct spending is only used in a limited and targeted way.

@MimiProbably @AlbertaatNoon I think a different response set would show up on ched, frankly. Think about who listens to what.

[Derrick O’Keefe @derrickokeefe]

Poilievre is a fake populist. He is the establishment. A career politician who for 2+ decades has supported policies that’ve made the gap between rich and poor wider.

The only way to stop him is with real anti-establishment politics taking on the billionaire class. #cdnpoli

@AaronWherry In short, I think woke means not an asshole, used only by assholes.

[Mildred Thill @MildredThill]

@AaronWherry It means “not racist, not chauvinistic, not homophobic, but importantly, not conservative.

@edmundacuto94 “Your pay check, (in crypto currency)
Your retirement (funds unindexed to inflation)
Your home, (worth even less if I get elected as PM)
Your country (with no public broadcaster.)”

I like Ecojustice because Jason Kenney doesn’t.

[Mildred Thill @MildredThill]

Ecojustice needs monthly donors to sustain the legal fight for a safer environmental future. Sign up now and you can also trigger an additional $40K for urgent public interest litigation! Learn more: https://t.co/NzTwUgo3or

[Marie Renaud 🇨🇦 @MarieFrRenaud]

Jason Nixon says the UCP won’t be re-indexing AISH to inflation because Alberta “has the most generous social services programs anywhere in the country”.

That’s a lie.

Even if true, they struggle to buy food & live in poverty. It isn’t enough!

Absolutely shameful.

@TheBreakdownAB How the right wing of the UCP will go after the next leader.

@RachelNotley Such a long year of libertarian selfishness in govt.

@timquerengesser Put it in a pillow case if it gets too scary.

The use of Nitrogen fertilizer is just one example. Off gassing of nitrous oxide has almost 600 times the greenhouse effect of C02.

[Mildred Thill @MildredThill]

It seems to me that precision agriculture is just more of the same problem that has gotten us here in the first place. Industrial agriculture is directly responsible for a goodly portion of greenhouse gases.

[Mildred Thill @MildredThill]

Using chemical fertilizers in any amount degrades the soil, requires the use of more pesticides and fungicides and these further degrade the soil until it is just dirt that blows away in the wind or washes away in the rain.
