If you're interested in crops, The Star has a great piece about farmers adapting to climate change: http://projects.thestar.com/climate-change-canada/saskatchewan/ In lighter (armored vehicle  ), NPR has a story about the LAV contract: https://www.npr.org/2019/06/18/732414876/for-saudi-military-vehicle-deal-canada-weighs-jobs-and-human-rights . This is my highlight:quote:The company says it directly employs 1,700 highly skilled people in London, and indirectly provides work to more than 12,000 additional people across Canada through more than 500 suppliers. Macartney says there are more than 240 suppliers in London alone for the armored vehicle contract. DJ loving DeJesus  . Like Jesus said, losing jobs making parts for death machines would be horrific.Dude should loving quit his job and start spinning Christian EDM. Dance to DJ DJ DeJesus awwww yeah.

Those two chucklefucks just ended up maiming a mother and some other innocent folk, while entirely missing this motherfucker who's built his life around manufacturing weapons for genocides.

You want a Philips 4k bulb, humidity control, and roughly 84* F temperature. Everything else is just pest management and your chosen feeding method. If you are planning to grow something seriously then I would highly recommend Korean regenerative farming as a basis.

OTOH having the idiots in the Ford family running a fractured dynasty across party lines would be entertaining if nothing else.

Elections Canada is scrapping a plan to run a social media influencer campaign aimed at young people, after conservatives rightly complain that the program will benefit only the Liberals because none of the celebrities young people are likely to listen to on social media are bigots. I have a lot of mixed feelings here.

But wait, you didn't mention the part where they already paid a bunch of said influencers before scrapping the whole thing after discovering a bunch of them had a bunch of partisan involvement. Bunch of free cash for some kids with connections. (Also the bolded text seems unlikely as video gaming culture is still garbage and kids seem to really like watching streamed video games.)

Well that was wrong; I meant none of the celebrities they picked were small-c-conservatives (or bigots) https://barrie.ctvnews.ca/elections-canada-scraps-social-media-influencers-to-encourage-youth-vote-1.4475853 quote:Elections Canada revealed Thursday that among those who were supposed to take part in a video encouraging youth to register were Olympic athletes Andre De Grasse, Penny Oleksiak and Max Parrot and YouTubers Mitch Hughes, Elle Mills and Lilly Singh. The others were comedian Katherine Levac, TV hosts Maripier Morin, Nicolas Ouellet, singer-songwriter Alex Nevsky, blogger Thanh Phung, actor and First Nations activist Ashley Callingbull and Maayan Ziv, a photographer and activist for disability issues. Find me a person in the public eye who didn't agree that Harper had to go at the end of his term (or an Indigenous voter who thought he should stay). Also, "having tweeted about it once at some point in the past" is hardly "involvement", is it? James Baud posted:
This, I agree with. All of the people on that list are easily capable of making a video telling their audience to go vote for anyone at all, as long as they vote.

Majority in every province but 1 back Liberals’ Trans Mountain decision, and it’s not B.C.: Poll quote:The survey also found majority support for the project in every province except for one -- though the odd one out wasn't British Columbia. Not like the Liberals need votes in Quebec, anyway!

I read though like 8 pages of thread just now to catch up and it's pretty disheartening to hear that we would basically have to resort to violence to revolutionize the energy sector in a way that slows down our inevitable demise by climate change and all the effects it'll have on us, in a time frame that matters.
