Saviez-vous que le Canada a fabriqué sa première voiture électrique en 1893, bien avant l’ère moderne des Tesla et Chevrolet Bolt? Cette histoire fascinante, largement oubliée, révèle que le #Québec et le #Canada ont été des pionniers de l’électromobilité dès les premiers jours de l’automobile. Aujourd’hui, avec plus de 103 000 véhicules électriques vendus en 2024, le Québec renoue avec cette tradition d’innovation en devenant le leader canadien de la mobilité électrique

Les vers de terre peuvent réduire cette couche de 95 %, voire la faire disparaître. Résultat : « ces couches organiques sont des réservoirs de carbone importants, et leur disparition réduit directement le rôle des forêts dans la lutte contre les changements climatiques »

❝ Taylor Swift is in her engagement era. Will it give the economy a boost?❞

2. why am i not shocked it’s some south Asian dude writing this shit? Satya Nadella is the hero to a lot of these dudes. he’s become the darling of for his predatory awfulness as CEO of . so it’s like a fan club of dudes that have taken everything wrong with and decided they could be better at the awfulness.

Oil and gas CEOs lobbied Carney on climate plan

When Prime Minister Mark Carney met with oil and gas executives in June, he touted “partnerships” to make Canada an “energy superpower,” but disclosure reports show industry leaders had something else in their crosshairs: the federal climate plan

It's 2025, and Canada is literally on fire. 1 in 4 Canadians can't afford enough food to eat. Housing starts are down, and are projected to continue falling.

What are Carney's priorities? Subsidizing the fossil fuel industry, of course. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

"Our government is in the process of unleashing half a trillion dollars of investment in energy infrastructure"

Old enough to remember when Carney actually promised to end subsidies to the fossil fuel industry. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Mark Carney, 'The Daily Show', January 13 2025:

"Canadians have been very hard pressed in the last few years. Wages have not kept up with inflation, people are falling behind, not getting ahead, housing is very expensive (...) the government has been not as focused on those issues as it could be. We need to focus on them immediately. That can happen now."

Still waiting...

#theglobeandmail reported this yesterday, on page A6, in a tiny 5 paragraph blurb: Opiod deaths in Canada fell 17% in 2024.

I can't wait to hear the Tories thank #justintrudeau for his hard work on this. Also, does this mean #Canada is slightly less broken? Maybe just dented now?

On another point, why is this buried exactly? We are all one election from crack pot populists taking over and we can't even get progress reported... Wtf???
