Don’t gamble Canadians’ money on a risky pipeline | Pembina Institute Over the past two decades, oil and gas pipelines have emerged as potent political symbols.

A new pipeline should be a business decision — not a political one.

Taxpayers shouldn’t be asked to shoulder the risks of a $50+ billion pipeline when private investors won’t.

Archive Dive: Still Renting After All These Years Thoughts on the generational aspect of our housing crisis

"Many of these houses are breathtakingly ugly, making no attempt to enliven a public realm. These displays of wealth are not like Andrew Carnegie endowing a library; they are more like Clint Eastwood’s daughter setting fire to a $100,000 handbag."

This article beautifully sums up current housing issues. They exist in my city, Calgary, and I expect in most North American cities.

IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

The City of New Westminster is the FIRST municipality in Canada to pass a maximum heat bylaw. 🌡️🥵

Our homes are our first line of defense against extreme heat.

As climate events increase in frequency and severity, it’s more important than ever for Canadians to have access to safe temperatures.

"As long as we depend on oil and gas, we will continue to pay the price for other people's wars," the PM stated.

The government also reiterated its aim to install one million heat pumps "made in France" each year by 2030, which would allow heating costs to be "halved."

France announces ban on gas boilers in new buildings starting in 2027 French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu also announced on Friday a doubling of support for electrification by 2030, from €5.5 billion to €10 billion annually.

VERY BIG NEWS out of France a week ago:
"French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu announced on Friday, April 10, a ban on installing gas heating systems "by year's end" in new buildings, including multi-unit housing, to curb France's dependence on fossil fuels."
