Thank you @hopeful66.bsky.social for including me, a Canadian, in your July 4 Roll Call. I am following all these resisters! Trump has had an adverse impact on Canadian industries with his onerous tariffs on steel, aluminum, and copper, automotive and transportation equipment, and forestry products
Disastrous decision by PM Carney 🇨🇦 Canadians bought a 🛢️pipeline to extend from the Alberta tar sands through southern BC, condemning future generations to worsening climate change 💣, spill risks and exorbitant💰costs! Taxpayers will finance 90% of the pipeline. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...
I saw this awful news in my local grocery store! The politicians in BC (Premier Eby) and Ottawa (PM Carney) are imagining a spill ruining everything and pricing in that calamity! Times Colonist’s newspaper headline: “BC to retain tanker ban, be compensated for risk if Ottawa imposes pipeline“
Thanks so much for including me in your Wednesday Roll Call 2! Some familiar faces and lots of new ones! I am following them all. ✊@hopeful66.bsky.social
