Dave Sanderson 🇨🇦🍁Pierre Poilievre wants the government to cancel the planned high speed rail project.
“Poilievre panned the idea of expropriating land for the project, calling it a ‘Liberal land grab.’”

Here’s Poilievre back when he didn’t have a seat in Parliament:
“Poilievre said that the legislation will be needed to get the [pipeline] construction underway, hand-in-hand with national leadership to push past any detractors.”
Like landowners, especially First Nations, whose lands a pipeline would pass through?

Maybe Alto, the company that is planning the railway, needs to match the oil companies’ donations to the Conservative Party of Canada.
Never mind the railway will continue to bring economic benefits to Canada long after any pipelines have shut down, not to mention help reduce emissions.
Eric LawtonAlberta government says new bill intended to remove politics, ideology from schools | CBC News
Conservatives think ideology is what other people believe.
What we recognize as their ideology, they label "common sense". Or "neutral and impartial".
They have no self awareness whatsoever.
Or they would see what narrow, cruel, selfish people they are.

Don't overthink electric car charging (we should be doing it differently)
Success for Conservatives is finding at least one study that backs their ideology.
“The Ontario government has cited a Canadian Centre of Recovery Excellence study that found no increase in mortality after the closure of one overdose prevention site in Red Deer, Alta.
But that study’s authors have acknowledged it was inconclusive because it covered only a six-month period. And a single study of a single site closure does not constitute an evidence base for dismantling an entire network of services across a province where opioid deaths remain catastrophically high.”
Ontario is closing its supervised consumption sites, calling them a failure. So what counts as ‘success?’
Supervised consumption sites have real shortcomings. But the government’s case for closing them relies on a narrow definition of success and abandons the people the sites were designed to reach.
Mark ConnollyToday, off and on, I’ve been watching the NDP convention on CPAC, while checking in on my Mastodon timeline. I suppose I’m in an echo chamber of sorts, but it’s one based on mutual respect and support and love. And I’m ok with that.
Perspective@herroyalmelness it would be interesting to see the dollar value of the line item for all the court battles their policies get them into - especially the ones they lose.
Imagine that - a government that writes laws can't / won't follow the letter of the law ... 🤔
And why do taxpayers have to for the bill for their ineptness? The party should pay those legal bills from their own coffers. Your choice - your cost.
