  18. “Prime Minister Mark Carney has called this crisis a point of rupture, and he is right. Someone completely new has moved into the house next door. […] He is a predatory hegemon whose regime in its second incarnation has demonstrated unprecedented corruption and a compulsion to destroy the co-operative ways of being and co-existing that have undergirded Canada-U.S. relations for decades.”

  24. “It seems like #American #firms do not just want #Canadians as customers; they want #businesses, #governments, and individuals to be totally reliant on the American #technology #stack, without any other options for #cloud services, #paymentsystems, #AI models and more.”

  25. Of interest to #Canadians. With the Fedi skew to tech-knowledgeable people, this probably isn't news to many.

    But if you're looking to buy #electrical stuff - power bars, extension cords, multi-outlet wall taps that convert 1 #socket into 3 or 2 into 6, all this sort of stuff - be careful where you buy it.

    The big hardware stores / home centres sell this stuff, but at stupidly-high #prices. There's no reason a 10-foot extension cord should cost $25, or a power bar $40. So many people reasonably look for #cheaper alternatives.

    A lot of #stores and sellers operating in the ... less-well-regulated portions of the market bring this stuff in cheap directly from sellers/manufacturers in China or other countries. Independent stores, mall kiosks, people selling out of their home - their products may not be approved for sale in Canada, because they don't have the necessary #safety #certification. And many of *those* products are actually downright dangerous. I've taken a lot of them apart and seen the many, many ways they can kill you or burn your house down.

    Instead, get this stuff at #Dollarama. Their stuff is actually safety-certified by one of the required labs - #CSA, #UL, or most likely #ETL. It's approved for sale in #Canada. And it's still cheap. It might be a little more than guy-with-a-sales-counter-in-a-dilapidated-strip-mall, but not by enough to matter.

    Other big chains might be okay - but I haven't personally verified those.

  26. #LNG : Not in Our National Interest National Campaign Launch

    📅 Tuesday, March 31, 2026

    🕓 4:00 PM PT/ 7:00 PM ET

    📍 Zoom Webinar

    act.stand.earth/s/4775242/6bS5

    [ We’re in pretty wild times right now. In the midst of global turmoil and another oil war, our Prime Minister Mark Carney is pushing hard to fast-track new fossil fuel megaprojects.

    Foreign investors are pitching LNG exports as an economic cure-all for Canada. But if LNG is such an economic engine, why do they need billions of our public dollars?

    That’s why we’re starting a new national campaign to pressure Prime Minister Carney and his key ministers to stop the government from giving billions more of our taxpayer money to dirty energy megaprojects that mostly benefit foreign billionaires. We want the government to start to fund the clean, renewable economy instead

    You’ll hear from movement leaders and experts to learn why these foreign-owned, high-cost projects will raise energy prices at home and harm Indigenous reconciliation. Showcasing how much better the clean, renewable economy is on every measure.

    We’ll also share details of exciting in-person actions happening across the country for the Week of Action in mid-April. This is our chance to tell the Carney government that Canadians say NO to more free money for big polluters, and YES to funding the clean energy economy.]

  27. Who is in charge of consumer refuse "recycling" in many parts of #canada, including my town in #NewBrunswick?

    Why it's none other than executives from many of the enormous conglomerates that create & distribute all the plastic packaging in the first place!

    #loblaws, #sobeys, #metro, #mcDonalds, #pepsi, #coke, #procterAndGamble, #nestle, #rbi (#timHortons, #burgerKing, #popeyes) etc.

    circularmaterials.ca/board/

    No matter how many times I email them asking, they will not reveal what they're doing with all that collected plastic they're going to "recycle".

    We already know that the vast majority of plastic to be recycled never is: it finds its way to places like #india:

    cbc.ca/documentaries/the-passi

    But at the same time #cbc is perfectly happy to pretend along with the "big lie" they've uncovered by refusing to use any critical thinking when covering local implementations of these projects:

    cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswi

    Sure, *our* landfill may have less shit in it, but it had to go *somewhere*, and that somewhere is NOT back into "the circular economy". It goes to pollute some distant shore, to affect some distant population, to ruin the lives of others. It's RACISM.

    Pats on the back and kudos all around to us *resourceful #Canadians*.
