I'm glad to see my MLA (Brennan Day) leave the BC Conservatives while they devolve into outright brain rotted racism. I didn't vote for him, but respect that he and several others are still functioning adults and have left the party.

The Serfs (youtube.com/theserfstv)@theserfstv.bsky.social · 6d ago

Not sure how politics are going in your part of the world but over here the conservatives have made anti-Indigenous racism the core of their campaign

Remember this when we can't fund environmental programs because mitigating climate change is too expensive.

Canada is just a bunch of corrupt colonial resource extraction projects in a trench coat

Alberta congratulates itself on doing evil. Every time forest fires destroy a town, floods wipe out homes and livelihoods, people die from heat exposure and poor air quality, and the electricity grid is strained by AC use, we can thank the UCP for their advocacy. www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art...

Alberta says province’s advocacy work to thank for Ottawa’s EV sales mandate repeal

The Alberta government says it will be following the federal government’s next emission standards regulations closely after celebrating the scrapping of a Justin Trudeau-era electric vehicle mandate.

The speaker tells the crowd she wasn’t the organizer of the gathering but “just happened to have a microphone in her truck.” Every insincere cultural panic is an offshoot of convoy chuds trying to raise money.

Leading voices in the campaign against the bylaw framed it as a grassroots "community win" but The Discourse found that many out-of-context claims about the bylaw and calls to action were spread, in part, by an organized group of advocates. Read our investigation: thediscourse.ca/cowichan-val...

Remember this when the government says that we can't afford to fight climate change. Maybe it's because they refuse to even make money from oil and gas projects.

The Tyee@thetyee.ca · 3w ago

The government already pays more to ship each barrel of oil on the publicly owned pipeline than contracted oil companies. This new settlement agreement, if approved, would deepen that public funding. thetyee.ca/News/2026/08...

I would love to see a reporter at a press briefing ask "how much will oil and gas companies be required to pay in wildfire reparations, and when should we expect those payments to begin?"

The Serfs (youtube.com/theserfstv)@theserfstv.bsky.social · 4w ago

20,000 people are now being evacuated in BC due to out of control wildfires. Multiple First Nations communities have completely burnt down in Canada this summer alone. Liberals and conservatives are owned by the oil and gas lobby and are accelerating societal collapse. Capitalism is a death cult

I haven't bought American booze for like 20 years simply because there is so much local availability of beer, wine, rum, gin, mead, absinthe, whisky ... I rarely even go outside of BC unless it's for Scotch or Mezcal.

Three in four Canadians wouldn’t buy U.S. booze even if it returned to shelves--or 74 per cent, are not likely to buy the products if they are put back on the shelves. #Canada #Boycott #BuyCanadian #BuyLocal #NoThanks www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

It's weird that Alberta's orphan wells are not part of the pipeline MOU. Nobody should even be allowed to do a pipeline press release until they are cleaned up. Seems more effective than CCS and AB is already supposed to do it.

Sometimes, I take a used and abused base-model car share EV on a 1,600 km road trip from the coast to B.C.'s central interior, during which I provide ad-hoc airport shuttle service for meeting attendees, and everything is fine because we have a reliable, low-cost, publicly owned charging network.

And the news outlets who are like "how is life with an EV in the Canadian winter? To find out, we spoke with the owner of a rebuilt-status 2013 Fiat 500e."

Zamafir@zamafir.bsky.social · 2mo ago

I'll add People who buy multi-generation old EVs as play things: "the charging infrastructure needs to improve" People, not hoarding cars, or preserving polluters, with just one modern ev: "lol, no"

Watching the tone deaf enthusiasm for pipelines and Pathways is like watching your parents quit their jobs and put all their time and money into MLMs and scolding anyone who asks them to make it make sense.

The Serfs (youtube.com/theserfstv)@theserfstv.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Be sure to include the monsters responsible for the same climate policies driving fires death and destruction across the planet

Policy alternative: the federal government forcibly seals/remediates Alberta's orphan wells via crown corp (or CAF), hands AB the bill, and nobody so much as makes a pipeline or Pathways press release until it's all paid.

Rachel Gilmore@rachelgilmore.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Carbon capture is expensive and largely ineffective at making a real difference on emissions. Especially when the captured carbon can be used for enhanced oil recovery, which lets companies access oil that would have otherwise stayed in the ground!!!

Who exactly asked for a publicly-bought oil pipeline that will risk the survival of the endangered southern resident killer whales (and like, humanity) other than your rich friends?

This is an awesome addition to B.C.'s charging network right as summer travel ramps up. The Coquihalla highways is a busy, long and steep climb into the province's interior and this charging option takes pressure off congested stops at the bottom of the route. www.castanet.net/news/BC/6222...

Summer travellers now have more options to charge their electric vehicles along the Coquihalla Highway.

Every chud-farming culture war leads back to US resource companies. "Property rights" mean the ability for O&G and mining companies to do what they want, without regulation. Remember, the panic over DRIPA and Indigenous rights only kicked in when they pushed back on corporations.

My organization is moving away from Cloudflare after several of our domains were suspended because CF randomly, mysteriously registered them to some no-reply email instead of our provided info. Websites down for a week and tech support only responded once every 24+ hours.

A remarkable sight in Canada. The street is lined with cars. Not trucks and SUVs, but cars. It's like being transported back to the 90s, to not be walking beside a wall of RAV4s and Ram 2500s.

This thread is essential reading for British Columbians. DRIPA opposition is crass, cynical, greedy erosion of regulation. For people like Armstrong, it's simply another episode of insincere panics like carbon tax, EV targets, ostrich cull, plastic straws, human rights tribunal, bike lanes ...

AI should be having its tires kicked before we talk about how it'll improve healthcare, education, and governance. Please stop acting as a hype man for what at BEST is a meme machine. It's not our tech saviour. Why is every leader salivating at the thought of AI for everything?

I know there is a lot going on in the world, but Cloudflare support is criminally bad. Every other domain registrar I've used will respond within a couple hours at most. CF's buggy automation can take multiple sites offline for days at a time and their pay-to-play support replies once per 24 hrs.

Whenever you hear that a not-for-profit or community organization has folded after losing a few thousand dollars of funding, remember that the OneBrainCell party got $600k from taxpayers to make performative racism slop.

The richest 1% in Canada *increased* their wealth by $3 trillion between 1999 and 2023. In 2025, Canada's big six banks profited $70 billion. Meanwhile, the sky is falling over sub-$15 billion provincial deficits. Everything is being cut back or axed because we will do anything but tax the rich.
