"It is a choice not to focus on #climate policies, and the rest of us should absolutely be naming it. But when so few actual climate policy experts and champions have access to the clubs, parties, Signal chats, neighbourhood get-togethers, and group runs which form the essential habitat for our government’s decision making, we evidently do not hold much sway next to, say, #oil industry top brass or #AI bros." https://thewalrus.ca/mark-carney-influence-network/

"It is difficult to square Governor Carney’s 2015 warnings with Prime Minister Carney’s 2026 pronouncements that #Canadians cannot afford climate action." https://www.wcel.org/blog/revisiting-mark-carneys-tragedy-horizon

If I was a billionaire,
diddle, diddle, deedle dum,
I'd shout my minions the access fee,
have them push my favourite talking points,
curate the pollies experience,
if I were Australia's richest billionaire. -
"Anger is growing at Carney’s billionaire-enabling, anti-Indigenous, and anti-ecological agenda, and opposition to the summit is gathering momentum." https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/carneys-ceo-summit-could-put-public-assets-on-the-table

#Duped, an AU Four Corners ABC investigation into food fraud on iView.
Corporate capture of Australian governments federal and state exposed.
Fish, eggs, tumeric & tomato sauces are shown to not be what they're claimed be.
Slave labour in the global tomato growing.
Hospitalisations due to allergens being present when the label explicitly states otherwise.
#AgedCare too.

"The most active #fossilfuel #lobbyists were the companies making up the Oil Sands Alliance – an alliance of the largest #oilsands companies, who are behind the Pathways CCS project – with a total of 305 meetings." https://environmentaldefence.ca/2026/08/06/fossil-fuel-lobbying-skyrockets-in-first-year-of-pm-carneys-government/

"The project was approved by Environment Minister Julie Dabrusin despite an impact assessment finding the project would negatively impact #fish and #bird habitats, #water quality, #Indigenous people and #Canada's ability to meet its #climate goals."
This is the #CarneyCons in action. -

"#Canada isn’t the only country asking taxpayers to subsidize this largely unproven, risky, energy-intensive and less-than-effective technology. The #UnitedStates, #UnitedKingdom and #Australia are also funnelling public money into #carboncapture projects...... It’s insane that obscenely profitable fossil fuel companies are allowed to continue putting all life at risk through unnecessary expansion of their deadly industry." https://davidsuzuki.org/story/clean-power-pathways-beat-carbon-capture/

Computers, the internet & now genAI have been used to create evil mass market corporation & highly destructive effects on our cultures, societies and the people in them for some +30 years.
Governments are now taking some actions.
(Some of which, like age verification, are completely consistent with the surveillance capitalism desires of the techbros and techgals.)
But mandatory jail terms for senior management aren't yet in place.

It is time for MPs in #Canada and #Canadians to speak up about the direction the #CarneyCons are taking this country. https://digital.yellowknifer.com/Yellowknifer-07152026/2/

The future of intelligent life on earth may depend on genAI and greed interacting to reduce the human population by a factor of some 6000.
There are other pathways forward.

“It’s hypocritical. These guys have been hyping 90%, 95% capture, and now it’s, ‘well. we really can’t do it that fast, it’s not tested, it’s not certain’.” https://www.theenergymix.com/master-class-in-greenwash-as-ottawa-alberta-oil-sands-alliance-unveil-ccs-deal/

Today’s announcement breaks two promises that the federal and Alberta governments have repeatedly made to Canadians—that a pipeline would be privately financed, and would be contingent on oil sands companies reducing their emissions,” https://www.theenergymix.com/90-public-ownership-as-carney-smith-announce-new-pipeline-into-declining-global-oil-market/

"The #fossilfuel industry only wants this pipeline if it comes as a handout from our governments. But #Canadians, including #Albertans, do not want to pay for another pipeline – especially when the cost estimates range from $35 to $100 billion dollars. There are better things for our governments to do with that money." Time for all #Canadians to speak up. Lean on your MPs to rein in the banker and his #BigOil pals. https://environmentaldefence.ca/2026/07/03/statement-alberta-pipeline-proposal-will-be-a-failure/

"The #oil industry is a fire industry. It is a #CO2 industry. it is a #climate changing industry." Yet the leadership of #Alberta and #Canada are all in on killing #ecosystems, generating more #climate #refugees, and driving more rapid #climateBreakdown. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjeuEsJHwOA

"Last year Carney talked of “elbows up” but his decisions around cutting the federal service, investment in #fossilfuels, and spending on the military at the expense of social programs tells a different story." https://rabble.ca/politics/canadian-politics/carneys-vision-of-canadas-sovereignty-is-quickly-blurring/

Message to the #CarneyCons - "Instead of cozying up to CropLife Canada, it should be guided by farmers, agricultural workers, independent researchers, health experts, and environmental organizations." https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/why-is-the-carney-government-cozying-up-to-pesticide-companies

The actions of Ford in not recalling the faulty vehicles were IMO stochastic murder.

"An agenda that promotes a #military-industrial complex, slashes international aid, weakens #Indigenousrights, punishes #refugees and immigrants, and privatizes critical defence-related infrastructure — all while reducing #democratic accountability — is an agenda in conflict with the values of peace, justice, and human security." https://substack.com/home/post/p-203752731

#CarneyCons capitulation to the fascist regime south of the 49th is the outcome on almost any issue. #Canadian #stories, #music, #arts and #culture are now headed for the trash. https://www.policyalternatives.ca/news-research/will-cancon-die-with-the-online-streaming-act/?mc_cid=83dacc4fdf&mc_eid=38eb5baa00
