"f there's one thing Canada is good at, it's going to other countries and digging up all their wealth". Excellent read - long, but well worth the time and effort. Many thumbs up 😀
An interesting article (soon to be a series) in my local paper about soaring electricity prices.

“Because these fossil-fuel plants operate only a few days a year, they charge exorbitant rates to cover their operating expenses. That drives up costs across the grid. For example, on Tuesday (June 24) at 5:51 p.m., with the peaker plants running, the price per megawatt in the Hudson Valley was $2,886. A month earlier, on a mild May afternoon, the price was $26.”

UN Secretary-General:
“Families are being starved and denied the very basics. All with the world watching in real time.”
He reiterated Israel’s obligations under international humanitarian law, urging it to treat civilians with dignity, refrain from forced displacement, and to allow full humanitarian access, stressing that “all the aid authorized until now amounts to a teaspoon of aid when a flood of assistance is required.”
600 days on, people in Gaza, half of whom are children, face a crisis of survival. The Humanitarian Country Team in the Occupied Palestinian Territory warns that the new militarized distribution system does not meet the needs or dignity of people in Gaza, puts them at risk, and runs contrary to humanitarian principles.
