Manitoba west always knew this, EVEN Trudeau promised electoral reform 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣but ON & QC have never sanctioned it! Another good reason for the WEST to become the 51st State!
Did you know that Canada lacks electoral fairness?
It always has. The majority of Canadians live in Ontario/Quebec in large urban centers. With the help of East coast provinces, they decide who becomes PM. Most elections are decided before the votes West of Ontario are counted.
Some argue that majority rules is democracy. For those of us in rural areas & Western Canada, this is tyranny of the majority. There is no regional fairness, like the electoral college. We lack the ability to vote a PM out.
This spauns regional favoratism. Ontario & Quebec urban centres get whatever they want from federal governments because that is where the majority of voters are. The rest of us have little meaning or value to the political machine.
An exception to this is the Maritimes provinces on the east coast. They have disproportionately smaller populations in their ridings because of their geography. This makes their vote expodentially more valuable more valuable than ours in the West.
Another exception, Quebec, lost some population numbers & as a result were to lose a federal seat when the seating was adjusted. All parties supported them not only keeping that seat, but getting an extra.
This is a dilema that Western provinces of Canada have always had to deal with, for over 100 years. No federal govt has been willing to address it, as it would result in them losing their position.
No provincial govt has been able to break through this lack of fairness.
Too much of the Western population is ignorant of these facts or unwilling to give up the romantic notion of Canada & unity.
I ask you, Western Canadians, when is enough, enough? When do we start to look after our own best interests? History has taught us, our federal govt never will.
Do you like math?
Do you like making climate activists cry?
If so, this post is for you. 🫵
They advertise utility-scale solar photovoltaic (PV) and wind as being “eco-friendly” energy technologies because they emit less CO₂ over their total lifecycle. Emissions is all the “greens” like to jack their sausage holsters about. But, when you point out to them just how land intensive their “green” energy technologies are, they squirm trying to justify being vehemently opposed to nuclear fission — a near-infinite, carbon-free, energy-dense electricity source — and working to destroying the landscape with massive amounts of solar cells and wind farms to save the planet.
Let's run the numbers, shall we?

The standard nuclear reactor has a 1,000-megawatt (MW) rating. This means that each plant is, on average, installed with 1,000 MW of power capacity. A 1,000-MW nuclear facility occupies, on average, just over 1 square mile (640 acres) of land.
To figure out just how many homes a single 1,000 MW ...
Thorold Council Challenges Federation of Canadian Municipalities on Climate Program
—A Historic First
On May 28, 2024, the Thorold, Ontario City Council made history as the first municipal council in Canada to thoroughly question representatives from the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) about the Partners for Climate Protection (PCP) Program—a program already adopted by over 500 municipalities across the country.
The meeting exposed glaring gaps in the program’s transparency, accountability, and scientific grounding, raising concerns that had apparently never been addressed before, despite widespread municipal participation.
The Presentation That Raised Eyebrows
Kiana Simmons, Project Officer, and Lindsay Telfer, Manager of Capacity Development at FCM’s Green Municipal Fund, presented an overview of the PCP Program. They described it as a voluntary, no-cost initiative designed to help municipalities create and implement local climate action plans.
Key claims made by the presenters included:
No Cost for Participation – Membership is free, ...
From Armstrong Economics.
Stratospheric aerosol injection is the latest proposed method to save civilization from human-induced climate change. I jokingly say that the climate change agenda believes they can simply throw money at the sky to change the weather, and I suppose there is a little truth in every “just kidding” as this method is precisely that.
Volcanoes produce clouds of sulfur dioxide, naturally injecting converted gas into the stratosphere, forming sulfate aerosols that reflect sunlight back to space. Scientists believe that this naturally occurring phenomenon can be replicated. Simply sending sulfur dioxide into the air would not work as it produces solar and terrestrial heat and would actually create a warming effect. Scientists proposed an alternative that involves diamond dust.
As explained in Life Science: “The team compared the cooling efficiency of diamond particles with that of aluminum and calcite particles using an Earth system model that simulates the full ...
