Pretend is the worst one. Almost all Canadians think their government is acting strongly on climate, and Canada is literally doing NOTHING.

The strongest action Canada has taken in its history to fight carbon is hydro electric power.

But.
Hydro Electric Power is falling, headed to failing, for the SAME REASON the forests are burning. Heat. Less and less water.

Canada burns, wirh no national wind projects, no massive solar systems.
Shame.

A quotation from La Bruyere, Jean de:

«««««
No vice exists which does not pretend to be more or less like some virtue, and which does not take advantage of this assumed resemblance.

[Il n’y a point de vice qui n’ait une fausse ressemblance avec quelque vertu, et qui ne s’en aide.]

Finally joined the great unwashed.
Tested positive for the vid last night.
N95 masks for three years, kids out of school for two years. Isolation. Vaccines and boosters. Doing the right thing and making sacrifices. The only chink in our amour was returning the kids to school this year. And that’s where it came from.
It’s fucking rampant in the schools but that’s inconvenient isn’t it?
The great #pretence continues and fuck the weak, those that don’t make it and the long termers - 1/2
