Freckles. Potential for red hair. Higher rates of skin cancer from UV light, etc…take your privileges where you can.

The crux of the issue is that you have grids that are (fairly) net zero already or systems that are (fairly) net zero already in Quebec and Manitoba and B.C. And then Ontario, you have quite a low emission system, (and) Newfoundland and Labrador. But then you get into New Brunswick, Nova...

With the unveiling of a draft of Ottawa’s new clean electricity regulations last week, the Liberals have made the opening move in a high-stakes chess game between the federal government and the provinces that could play out over the next decade and a half. But if one thing is clear, it’s that...

While Guilbeault picks fights with provincial governments across Canada for generating a small and shrinking amount of electricity from coal or natural gas, China last year built roughly two coal plants per week. According to the group, Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air, the coal power...

On July 5, cabinet announced it was pulling all government advertising from Facebook and Instagram, worth $11.4 million a year, after Meta said it was ending news access on its platform following the passage of Bill C-18, the Online News Act, which forces online publishers to share some...

So is he smiling? Cheering? Much enthusiasm! Intense! Why am I thinking of vampires?

In April, Bilkszto filed a lawsuit against TDSB for bad faith contractual performance (including failing to investigate his harassment claim), revoking work contracts, and defaming him, including by uninviting him to the graduation for a program he helped create. In a statement released after...

Read through most of Serryah’s link in post #105. That’s messed up. I’ll skim through the rest of it tonight when time permits.

Toronto school principal Richard Bilkszto was bullied by an anti-racism trainer over “his whiteness” — his questioning of her assertion that Canada is a more racist place than the United States. In July, he took his own life. The victim here is easy to spot. It’s the dead man….you’d think...

It’s ironic is what it is, and both a little bit scary and funny, and perhaps the basis for a good Meme, & I do love a good meme. (I don’t have the knowledge base in depth to try to figure out a historical figure (who may or may not be fictional, but I’ll leave that alone) political leanings in...
