Scandinavia south of Paris.
Arguments were well laid out even if there are few plans to implement it. Sea transport between the countries can avoid US fees even before this year's tariffs. For Mexican autosector, Metal manufacturing from Canada could see finishing in Mexico. Video says batteries from MX, but China would be a better partner by far.
Chevy Equinox and their electric van are good value, but costs would go down in Canada with Canada/MX partnership on them. Produce would probably need air shipping, though.
Only the rare Blue hydrogen is renewable
Green Hydrogen is made by electrolysis of water = use electricity, get Hydrogen. No emissions. Green. This technology is mature enough to be deployed at mass scale, and produce localized stored energy that can be transported/exported. Costs are $2/kg when using "near surplus" solar at 2c/kwh input cost. For a FC vehicle, this is equivalent to $1/gallon gasoline in range.
Blue H2 is not green or renewable. While the process gas reaction can be separated to capture/split the CO2 gas produced, that CO2 needs to be transported and pumped underground, and the heat required for the reaction generally is produce by NG combustion that needs a chimney, and produces emissions.
H2 is not a dead end technology. It is ahead of its time, as solar penetration to provide enough energy every day is solar that produces surpluses on most days, and is not yet here, or even in China yet. Ever more solar does require a monetization path past electrical saturation, and green H2 is the best path for its chemical applications, transportation, energy backup, and rocket fuel.
Base jumping off an EUC obviously safer.
replied to wrong post, but if Canada is not subservient to CIA/US empire for Ukrainian war funding, it does have its democracy corrupted by the descendants of genocidal volunteer nazis fleeing USSR war crimes that our parliament gives standing ovations to.
Back to the topic of UBI, instead of corrupt fascism that steals my money for demonic nazi support, you are free to use your UBI/other money for any nazi/geopolitical purpose you want, instead of improving your personal life and prospects. The other benefit of UBI is the end of divisiveness that occurs from fascist governance that never does what its campaigning suggests.
"we need slavery, because otherwise, how would single issue Ukrainian Canadians help diminish Russia to the last Ukrainian" is a very weak argument against UBI. You will be empowered to use your own money to have Ukrainian rulership kill all Ukrainians.
This is great for me... because I have a fuck Delta, or will pay extra to avoid, pricing maximum in mind.
Canada would need to make almost $100 billion more in revenue every year just to cover UBI, and that does not include anything else Federal revenue is used for.
UBI means a net tax reduction, with clear quality of life improvements, as long as the obvious social spending programs are eliminated. The higher the UBI, the more programs are obvious elimination candidates. UBI is simply tax credits offsetting tax debits. As obvious examples, the basic tax exemption means rates above the exemption need to be higher to raise the same revenue as if there were no basic exemption. When investment income gets tax breaks and no payroll taxes, employment and business income needs to be taxed higher for same revenue. Lower business income tax rate? = higher employment taxes.
UBI always costs 0. Just net credits and debits that equal 0. Drastic discretionary budget savings means net tax cuts.
To be fair, if pedestrians existed on those roads, they might want to cross it.
Not sure that is specific Project 2025 item, though it is a consequence of Trump trade policy. US$ value is a function of total trade with US. A $ is not destroyed when it is sent abroad, and there is general appeal to use it to buy US assets to ensure the wealth to purchase more imports. Unjustifiable extortion is resulting in less capital inflows to US treasuries even as the colonies rulerships seemingly submit to the extortion.
As OP's charts show, China saved the US in GFC aftermath legitimizing their extreme QE and bailouts.

This is 36% MODULE efficiency with expensive cooling. 30% actual year long efficiency without it. Requires dual axis tracking. Seems heavy as its very tall/deep.
Headline of cost reduction is very unlikely. Especially on a per acre/fairly large area basis. Dual axis tracking requires more spacing than fixed orientation rows, and loses benefits under cloudy conditions. While power at 7am and 5pm is more valuable when competing against high penetration solar, batteries are now more competitive than tracking, and can serve edge of day and night power needs. Tracking solar tends not to be built anymore, due to low cost of panels. The cooling infrastructure is also not as useful as it is on rooftops because the heat capture has useful benefits for homes.
It is also unclear how this has advantage over parabolic mirror.
Agri PV is a real use case, where more free land means more land use, even if most of it gets more shade, except around noon.
heat up anyone enough, and they will glow in visible spectrum.
