Asia was supposed to be an enormous growth market for LNG.
Not anymore. Shortages, spiking prices, massive uncertainty. Asia is moving to renewables instead

DRIPA is not a threat to certainty; it is our only path toward it.
A suspension of Indigenous rights would torch nation relations, Horgan’s legacy, and block the real path forward - long overdue good-faith negotiations.
Thanks for having me on, Mo @vancolour.bsky.social! #bcpoli
Good god Moe Sohota on CBC calling Indigenous leaders extremists for demanding the @bcndpcaucus.bsky.social uphold the DRIPA legislation passed unanimously by the Legislature seven years ago is a real bad look

Truth: you don't hate density, you hate traffic.
Lie: your local government must provide you with a parking space.
Come on where are the @bcndpcaucus.bsky.social MLAs who will refuse to vote for amendments to DRIPA? I know these people know better.
Gee it's interesting how when a centrist candidate wins a leadership race everybody tells the left to fall in line and blames the "division" for their poor prospects... But when a left-winger wins all of a sudden it's acceptable to trash them in a press release or refuse to meet with them.
Statement on the Removal of Hon Chan from the BC Conservative Caucus VICTORIA, B.C.: The follow statement was issued by Conservative Interim Leader Trevor Halford: “Hon Chan, MLA for Richmond Centre, has been removed from the Conservative Caucus of British Columbia, effective immediately. Yesterday, Mr. Chan informed me of serious criminal charges against him. Prior to yesterday, the caucus and party had no knowledge of this matter or any related incidents. Action was taken immediately upon becoming aware of these charges. Our caucus wishes to be clear, any allegations of domestic violence are taken seriously. Anyone who experiences it deserves to know that people in positions of public trust will be held to the highest standard of accountability. Mr. Chan is entitled to the presumption of innocence and due process before the courts. Those proceedings will run their course. The caucus will respect the appropriate process as it proceeds.”
The BC Conservatives just announced Richmond Centre MLA Hon Chan has been removed from the caucus and is said to be facing "serious criminal charges"

It's not clean energy it's fossil fuels. Do the province's climate targets even matter to you anymore?
Enough with the FALSE CHOICE between increasing infill density or increasing the urban tree canopy. BOTH are not only possible, but absolutely necessary. Good design is the key. The real design challenge isn’t building density or the space needed for trees… it’s the space we still surrender to cars.

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.
if we’re fomenting rage against First Nations because people are being given two years notice to vacate their expiring leaseholds on reserve land then we’ve kind of lost the plot
Iranians have a "misguided religion", says a man who helped facilitate the transport of five red heifers from Texas to Tel Aviv because many evangelical Christians believe a red cow needs to be sacrificed to usher in the End Times.
America is being led by Evangelical zealots who are cheering on Trump and Netanyahu's Armageddon to usher in the Second Coming of Republican Jesus 😬 newrepublic.com/post/207270/...
‘Natural gas’ prices in the EU have shot up ~40% in a day on news that Qatar is ceasing liquid ‘natural’ gas production at the world’s largest plant.
In related news, sunlight and wind remain free.
They were going to pass rules to phase out gas stoves, until they received 20,000 public comments against the regulations. Except, oops, it turns out the comments were generated by AI.
God this is just so wrong.
i cannot stop thinking about this man, who survived the Rohingya genocide but couldn’t survive border patrol. “He died trying to get home” is a gut punch
Ah, it’s so disappointing when politicians exploit cultural differences to fearmonger to Chinese voters about drugs. The important and nuanced details get completely lost in the discourse.
As the guy who wrote the book on zoning abolition, I'd like to go on record as saying: if you can use zoning to stop the concentration camps, fucking go for it.
Some day we'll all regret this & we'll hold hearings & rend garments & pledge "never again" & we'll be just as full of shit as we were last time.
God bless the Streisand effect
I'm sorry wat
