@MikeImBack
As expected, provincial/federal governments are using the tariff threat as a smokescreen to manufacture consent for expanded fossil fuel development & production. 🫤

“Tara Marsden, sustainability director for the Gitanyow hereditary chiefs, has previously told CBC News she is worried the push to approve new projects in the face of the economic threats emanating from the United States would sideline environment concerns.

She pointed out that Western LNG has significant backing from Blackstone Inc., a major American asset manager whose CEO publicly endorsed Trump and contributed to his campaign — undermining any notion that the project is needed to push back against the American president.”

As usual, fossil fuel industry spox (and former Liberal MP, Dan McTeague) is on my telly explaining away the sudden rise of gas prices mysteriously coinciding with the May long weekend. Apparently this time it’s a refinery fire in a California and the lower Canadian dollar that’s responsible. (Can’t blame the carbon-tax any more eh, Dan?)

Fuck I hate this clown.

Always follow the oil money.

@ajsadauskas @jaystephens Ta, interesting. I vaguely recall some of that, but your helpful toot defo provided more info than i knew.

I think something like this is why i feel, & tbh remain, so archly cynical... If Straya, & frankly the rest of the world, was genuinely honestly doing all the serious shit needed NOW to decarbonise & ameliorate, then seeking engineering solutions in flood zones like this would be ok. Knowing though that we & most others are totes NOT seriously addressing the crisis, fuels [boom tish] my severe pessimism, coz eg, engineering designs need engineering assumptions [in this case including expected heights & frequency of floods]. Such assumptions necessarily must be predicated on a certain "steady state" belief [plus safety margins thrown in]. That's all fine, IF we had reason to trust such assumptions. I do NOT trust them, simply coz there IS no steady state; humans are continuing to add more & more CO2 & CH4 to Gaia's atmosphere, thus more & more raising the enthalpy, ergo the heating energy, ergo... yada yada.

“Specifically, the executives want to see major projects approved within six months of filing an application, a commitment from the federal government to abandon industrial carbon pricing and its promised cap on oil and gas pollution, and for Ottawa to increase the amount of loans it is willing to backstop for Indigenous groups who want to invest in new oil and gas projects.”

Canada's National Observer · Wilkinson says Canada should not scrap climate policies to appease oil and gas executivesRolling back environmental policy will hurt Canadians in the long run, Energy and Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson told the executives of Canada’s largest oil and gas companies after they called for a national energy crisis to fast track new fossil fuel projects. The public spat reveals a new front in the ongoing battle over the sector's future in Canada.
