I had already read the essay,
but watching it was as fantastic.
This Cory Doctorow talk is so awesome. One of the most punk proposal I have heard lately.
I really hope Canada does it!
Thanks @pluralistic 🤘💚

“Canada's incentive program for zero-emissions vehicles, known as iZEV, was suspended more than a year ago after it ran out of money due to high demand.”
Canadian consumers: we want EVs!
Government of Canada: Hello, we're from 2005. Let's do Fuel Efficiency!

So far, Team Avi has done a good job here on Mastodon. For, me, though, what still missing is a least a little engagement with other people here.
So: @avilewis — what do you think of Deborah's idea of starting engagement by asking a few questions? Sure, there's maybe some risk to that. But there's plenty of upside in adapting to what the community here expects, and doing more than just broadcasting your ideas (good as they admittedly are).

Michael Spratt: Misrepresentation is no longer an occasional lapse or rhetorical flourish.
It has become a strategy that trades accuracy for outrage and treats public trust as collateral damage.
Per Ekos, “[forty-three] per cent of Canadians want the federal government to acquire a fleet of Gripen fighters … while 29 per cent are in favour of a mixed fleet … of Gripens and American-built F-35s.
“… The F-35 was most popular among supporters of the Conservative Party of Canada, with 30 per cent of them supporting … a single fleet. Among supporters of other parties, support for … a single fleet of F-35s ranged from three per cent to seven per cent.”

Alberta separatists won’t say which Trump officials they met with https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/article/very-high-level-alberta-separatist-group-wont-say-which-trump-officials-it-met-with/ “When asked by host Vassy Kapelos whether those officials would be recognizable to Canadians, Rath said “probably,”
“We have an agreement with the people that we’re meeting with that we’re not disclosing the identities of the people that we’re meeting with,” Rath said.”

I highly recommend this article about the massive U-turn that Canadian immigration policy has taken over the past few years. I've always taken Canada's self-mythologizing about how welcoming the country is towards newcomers with a HUGE grain of salt, but this essay encapsulates just how heartless our immigration system currently is.
"Welcome to Canada! Please help prop up our massively underfunded post-secondary education system and then get blamed for how similarly underfunded healthcare and infrastructure is. Oh, those pathways to permanent resident status? We changed our minds! Sorry, eh!"
It's not mentioned in this article, but isn't it beyond time that we revisit our "safe" third country agreement with the U.S.?

I also have been thinking about this connection, it is so damn obvious, but no one in the media is talking about it.
The rise of authoritarianism, and the deep connection to the oil industry.
It has been obvious to anyone willing to stop for a moment and think... but #TheAmericanFascist, in his infinite wisdom and/or senility, has thrown down the veil.
#Venezuela is about access to #Oil in South America.
#Greenland is about access to Oil and Minerals in the #Arctic.
#Alberta Separatism is about access to Oil and Gas in #Canada.
Deposing the Iranian Regime is access to Oil and Gas in the Middle East. (Get #Iran, and you might get #Iraq too)
And lets not forget #Russia... fighting the #RussiaUkraineWar funded by their oil reserves and all about returning to an old empire in oil-rich Central Asia and Eastern Europe.
So is the fight to end fossil fuel use in order to preserve a liveable, recognizable planet, also a fight against authoritarianism and fascism?
You're damn right it is.

My fellow Canadians, if you want to be part of the USA, you can move there freely on your own. I encourage you to do so.
"To go to a foreign country and to ask for assistance in breaking up Canada, there's an old-fashioned word for that, and that word is treason," said Eby ahead of the meeting.
