“oh, ok. Time to win.” Is possibly the defining trait of the Canadian Liberals. Few parties anywhere with an institutional history as ruthless as theirs.

There’s a reason your ancestors sent theirs to North America.
I’m not excusing any of his behavior, but I honestly think existing with that level of wealth causes actual brain damage. The same way solitary confinement does. Our brains are not made to operate without actual social reinforcement and norms. You can’t recalibrate when everyone around you says yes
A service provider that will refuse to preemptively comply, and force the authorities to jump through all the legal hoops before turning anything over, is already ahead of 99.99% of alternatives
So far Carney has been willing to let her play that game. It will be interesting, and possibly defining for both of them, if that ever stops
Our current foster. Sound on!
Maybe. When you get down to it her base cares a lot more about how much it costs to fill up their trucks than they do about the budget
By that logic the cleantech infrastructure should be paid for by the revenues from “gestures at the entire power grid and the economy it enables”, but I’m pretty sure that’s not going to happen 😂
I’m surprised there hasn’t been more noise over the diplomatic impacts of sinking an “enemy” ship after an international event they were both guests at.
The very existence of the current fast turnaround VC to buy-out/IPO regime is massively distorting. As long as you have that investment option why would anyone choose long term low margin alternatives?
At least it’s supposed to be
Moral cover?
The forBYDden?
Look at the last provincial election the UCP and NDP combined for a total of 97% of the vote. That’s extraordinary. The final 3% simply doesn't represent an electorate to chase
The 9% here isn’t a polling error. It’s accurately measuring that between elections people tune out and give silly answers
The greens are a rounding error. literally within the poll’s margin of error
If you look back the LPA was also at that level until recently. I guarantee this 9% result is people who think it’s the same as the federal liberals. There’s no there there. No real voters to swing. It’s a polling mirage
There’s nothing to unite. The Alberta Liberal Party doesn’t functionally exist as an organization. You can’t “unite” polling results that mostly show a lot of voters don’t know the difference between federal and provincial
See also voters surprised Trudeau was still PM after BC’s last election
I feel like the siblings agreed they were the same height back when they were eight, and have refused to acknowledge reality ever since
Maybe it’s the internet from a alternate, better, world?
It’s not the world where Bush’s propaganda about the Middle East turns out to be correct that scares me. It’s the world where the Middle East’s propaganda about Bush and America turns out to be accurate that terrifies me
I’m actually half surprised that Iran didn’t have a dozen drones sitting in some nondescript fishing vessel within range of an American city.
My read is that it’s mostly age (and to a lesser extent Schumer affiliation), not gender
Got a bunch of voters where being an establishment octogenarian is a deal breaker
A bunch where being a Nazi is a deal breaker (as it should be)
Now we see who “wins“ the battle of unacceptable candidates
I wonder how long one independent cell of fighters with even two dozen drones could keep the Straight of Hormuz closed by firing one off at a tanker every month or two?
Hope they get Rubio’s memo that the war is over.
Powell is out as Fed chair in just two months. Combine Trump getting his yes-man in there with an economic shock that can be used to justify extraordinary decisions and the wheels can really come off
I blame the death of media literacy. At least half of those featured characters were the explicit villains
I read it as more
T: Our LNG producers want me to ask if you’d buy our gas
S: Of course! You can sell it for the price we’re already paying, right?
T: You’d need to lock in a premium for the cost of the terminals and to ship it across the world
S: Let’s talk about something else
Has any German chancellor actually begged for export terminals? My impression was that Germany had expressed interest in buying Canadian LNG, provided we could ship it for the same price they were getting from more local sources. Not that they were willing to pay the premium that it would cost
I don’t know why, but my autocorrect seems to work uniquely poorly on bsky
I’m honestly a little surprised that it hasn't turned out that Iran had a dozen drones parked on a non-descript fishing boat within range of a US city.
Best case scenario is a ST:TNG style time jump with a new cast
“Hasn’t failed yet” can be a compelling competitive advantage when the alternatives can’t make the same claim
