WASHINGTON, D.C. — Canadian and American leaders have long touted the idea of North American energy dominance, building one of the world’s most deeply integrated energy markets, complete with cross-border pipelines and power grids.

In recent years, however, left-leaning politicians on both sides have worked to reduce fossil fuel dependence and accelerate the transition to clean energy.

CHARLEBOIS: When the phone replaces the kitchen

Do you use platforms like UberEats or DoorDash to order meals at the office or at home? If so, you’re not alone. The growth of these applications has been significant in recent years, though it varies widely across regions and generations.

According to a survey conducted in late August by Dalhousie University’s Agri-Food Analytics Lab, in partnership with Caddle, 27.4% of Canadians now order through these platforms more than once a month. That’s a clear increase from 2020, when only 20% of Canadians did so on a regular basis.


I don’t use any “food delivery” apps. Far too TFW sketchy in my books.

I would not be surprised if Farm Boy’s penchant for hiring Apu and his 37 cousins resulted in this. I bought packaged pepperoni sticks from my local, rotten with mold. I stay away.

NASA discovers ‘clearest sign of life that we’ve ever found on Mars’

Rolling across the rugged, rusty red terrain on Mars, NASA’s Perseverance rover came upon some rocks with peculiar green, blue, black and white dots. After detailed image analysis, scientists have come to a potentially encouraging conclusion: If those speckled rocks were formed like they are on Earth, they might be evidence of past life on the dusty planet.

The rocks “very well could be the clearest sign of life that we’ve ever found on Mars, which is incredibly exciting,” acting NASA administrator Sean P. Duffy said in a news conference Wednesday. The findings were published in the journal Nature on Wednesday.

Rightwing influencer accompanied Ice agents during raids in Chicago

A rightwing influencer accompanied officials from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) in Chicago on Sunday as the agency ramps up arrests in the city. Ice agents arrested four people on the city’s south-west side.

Ben Bergquam, the rightwing internet personality, was with agents, filming and making content as well as getting into altercations with local residents along the way, according to a video the Guardian viewed on X. In the video, he appears to be in the car with Ice agents and nearby as they arrest people; later on he yells at a group of Chicagoans who are gathered to prevent Ice operations that they are “the enemy within”.

Because they are the enemy within.

Eby spoke the truth on the immigration causing his fellow NDP’ers to have a shit hemorrhage.

B.C. Premier David Eby faces internal backlash from usual commies over immigration comments

B.C. Premier David Eby is facing pushback after linking Canada’s temporary foreign worker program to high youth unemployment and strains on social services, with New Democrats calling his remarks out of step with party values.

In response to a question about provincial belt-tightening at an unrelated news conference last week, Mr. Eby noted Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s call for Ottawa to axe the program and said it was a timely issue that should be considered.


Truth hurts.

More than half of Canadians no longer feel safe in their neighbourhoods, poll finds

2023 BOLO

A strong majority of Canadians feel they have the right to defend their home against intruders — and more than half say they don’t always feel safe in their neighbourhoods and that the justice system is working against their interests, new polling shows.

“I don’t think that’s a healthy sentiment in Canada if over half don’t really feel the justice system is working in their interest,” Andrew Enns, Leger’s executive vice-president, said Tuesday about the findings of a new national Postmedia-Leger poll.

Anti-Islamic US biker gang members run security at deadly Gaza aid sites

The firm guarding sites where aid is distributed in Gaza has been using members of a US biker gang with a history of hostility to Islam to run its armed security, a BBC investigation has found.

BBC News has confirmed the identities of 10 members of the Infidels Motorcycle Club working in Gaza for UG Solutions – a private contractor providing security at Gaza Humanitarian Foundation sites, where hundreds of civilians seeking food have been killed in scenes of chaos and gunfire.

We can reveal that seven members of the gang are in senior positions overseeing sites at the controversial aid operation backed by Israel and US President Donald Trump.

Awesome!
