Opinion: Donald Trump wants to make an example out of Canada. How will we prepare? We must urgently strengthen our capacity to endure whatever this wildcard President throws at us

"We are in a lot of trouble, and we need to move fast. There is no reason to confine our imagination to what is reasonable or even practical. It is not enough to hope for the best. We have to plan for the worst."

‘The trend is irreversible’: has Romania shattered the link between economic growth and high emissions? Emissions have plunged 75% since communist times in the birthplace of big oil – but for some the transition has been brutal

Romania has decoupled economic growth from pollution faster than anywhere else in EU. Its net greenhouse gas emissions intensity fell 88% between 1990 & 2023, so each euro’s worth of economic activity heats planet 10 times less. Emissions have plunged by 75%. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Poilievre says he's spoken with Jivani about U.S. trip and MP 'speaks… National Newswatch: Canada's most comprehensive site for political news and views.

Conservative backbencher heads to Washington claiming he will get a trade deal with Trump.
He then ridicules Canadians for having a "hissy fit" over threats to our sovereignty.
All while the Conservative leader sat on the sidelines?

THE TRUMP DOCTRINE - THIS IS NOT A DRILL !!! YouTube video by Charlie Angus

This is not a drill. The Trump doctrine has been boldly stated:
Reduce Canada to a vassal state.
Crush Ukraine.
Undermine Europe by promoting racist hate parties.
Serve Putin.
The plan has been clear as day all along now it is being stated openly.
We must resist.

Activate climate’s ‘silent majority’ to supercharge action, experts say Making concerned people aware their views are far from alone could unlock the change so urgently needed

A huge 89% majority of global people [56% even in the United States] want stronger action to fight the #ClimateCrisis, but mistakenly believe they’re in a minority.

People want action. Smart cities are taking action. Nations should support city action.
