Every time I hear "Fortress North America," I'm reminded of Josep Borrell's "the Garden and the Jungle."

Good, but it doesn't read as though they were responding to the Canadian electorate.

Bad look for the person who submitted it. Considering she's the staff lawyer and director of nature programs, you would kind of expect her to be more than capable of expressing her sentiments in her own words. It's not like she's in a roll where you might expect her to need some help to write coherently. Comes across as lack of concern for her own professional image and her message.

Gotta say, that article reads an awful lot like LLM output, which is especially ironic given the topic.

Still 20% of components sourced from the US, but better than buying a full American plane.

Did the Israeli ambassador to Canada ever respond to Anand's summons on the 19th, or is she still waiting to hear back from him?

I didn't ask about the yellow ribbon generally. I asked about it specifically in relation to Israel.

The ethics of the caring professions may not have political intent in that they are not concerned with pursuit of power, but they cannot help becoming political in circumstances where politics and pursuit of power threaten people deserving of care.

I'm actually kind of shocked how many people are saying they're unaware. Not judging, just surprised people haven't been exposed to it with everything going on over the last three years. Are you familiar with the yellow ribbon in association with Israel?

That's a problem not just in SK. We are set to see energy demand skyrocket, and it's a bonanza for whichever industry ends up feeding it. The industry players with the political clout and the capacity to rapidly scale if there's little environmental impact consideration are in O&G. Tim Hodgson was down in Texas not long ago talking about how in order to win the AI race the US needs to catch up to China’s 400MW/year lead in new energy capacity and how that must be achieved using Canadian natural gas. There's an enormous amount of money to be made in filling that demand, consequences be damned for everyone who isn't either in on the bonanza or getting their re-election or post-politics career funded via it.

Is there something magical about lemmy that makes you think I'm actually suggesting MB install 12K acres of solar panels?

100m² seems substantially higher than what I've looked at before, but even using that estimate you could still power 40 homes with a single acre of solar panels. So, that would be something like 12K acres of solar panels to cover all of Manitoba's homes. It's not like that many people live in Manitoba, and there is a lot of land. How many acres of outdoor parking lots are there in Manitoba? Certainly seems like a meaningful contribution could be pretty easily made even using that high estimate for area required to power a home.
