  1. Instead of spending hundreds of billions of dollars on #pipelines and subsidies for O&G, #Canada needs to be making generation investments in #RenewableEnergy

    We could be investing in publicly owned solar panel and battery manufacturing, using materials sourced in Canada, which would not only meet all our energy needs in perpetuity but give us an exportable product for the foreseeable future. It would create more new jobs than we will lose when O&G inevitably dies AND if we make it publicly owned will provide public funds for social programming.

  2. RE: mastodon.scot/@andrewducker/11

    #Canada would be an ideal country for a train network like this, especially in places like the prairies, but decades of failed leadership beholden to O&G along with a fanatical adherence to #neoliberalism has prevented us from matching #China

    But it is not too late! Canada needs to pivot and redirect the billions in O&G subsidies into a publicly owned crown corporation that will design and build both the trains and the network for them to run on.

    As a bonus a high speed rail network could be built in conjunction with an HVDC transmission grid to move #renewableenergy around the country.
