Chapter 6 of "A Climate For Hope" is done. Here's the song entitled (the same as the Chapter): The Future Has No Vote. Admittedly, I was trying to get a Katie Perry — Rage inspirational vibe. But I failed! www.andrewjweaver.ca/2026/08/10/t...

Donald Trump blames Canada for wildfire smoke — but global warming is loading the wildfire dice

Wildfire smoke does not carry a passport. Canada cannot thin, log, rake or prescribe-burn its way out of a planetary crisis.

It’s been more than 20 years since I installed the 1st school-based weather station at Strawberry Vale Elementary on March 11, 2005. Now, the project is at a critical juncture. Do I shut it down, or do I try to reinvigorate it? Decision day is Sept. 30, 2025. www.andrewjweaver.ca/2025/08/14/s...

I’ve been investigating Paramount’s deal with Trump. Here’s what we know: - Trump sued CBS - CBS called the lawsuit “meritless” - Paramount (owner of CBS) still settled, handing $16 MILLION+ to Trump’s library - Paramount has a billion-dollar deal that needs Trump’s approval

Elizabeth Warren@warren.senate.gov · last yr.

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons. Watch and share his message.

Should the @liberalca.bsky.social and @mark-carney.bsky.social who are talking about “decarbonized oil” be charged under Canada’s new anti-greenwashing law (Bill C-59) that they recently bought in? Decarbonized oil? Do you mean hydrogen? #cdnpoli #bcpoli @stevenguilbeault.bsky.social

Jonathan Wilkinson, one of Canada’s most effective ministers, not being in cabinet is shocking. It’s telling that Carney demoted the architect of Canada’s climate plan (representing Burnaby & North Shore) as they proclaim plans to dredge Burrard Inlet for Aframax tankers with BC NDP support #cdnpoli

Eby just set a huge trap for the @bcgreens. It’s politics at its worst. If the greens vote for Bill 7 - “the NDP’s authoritarian regime act” they betray all BC. If they vote against it, Eby will say non confidence & call an election. Eby wants a majority. He may not get what he wants #bcpoli

This is a disturbingly obvious attempt to win a majority government. Let’s see if any NDP MLA has the courage to vote against this. The Greens could force the Speaker to cast the deciding vote. The federal NDP will now lose a ton of seats now in BC #cdnpoli #bcpoli 🍿 vancouversun.com/opinion/colu...

I rarely use Facebook but I found it rather unusual to see this sponsored ad appear in my feed. With Trump making America weak again, the DJIA likely heading for a major market correction after completing a double-top pattern Americans worldwide seem to want out. Putin is smiling!

And so, today, the classic double top pattern was hit on the NYSE today. The obviously fiscally incompetent US president has just triggered a major market correction. He is making America Weak Again.

To my US friends. We look to you for leadership. Canada has always played a more diplomatic role. But now the US is an international pariah. Your leadership is utterly chaotic & playing into the hands of Putin & various oligarchs. Trump is making America weak again. What is wrong with you? #cdnpoli

Looks like the Dow is completing a classic double top pattern. That’s thanks to Trump and his incompetent approach to economic issues. He’s Making America Weak Again.
