Is climate change happening? Scientists all over the world say it is. In some countries it has already caused tremendous damage - to people and to architecture. Stopping it will require a massive change in society.
And that massive change is not happening. At some point, probably soon, it will be too late. But there is no sign of such a change happening.
At some point, probably very soon, Canadian governments will have to act - or we all pay the price for inaction.
But the many oil field workers in Alberta refuse to give up their weekly pay cheques. So what can Ottawa do?
For a start, it could give Albertans pay cheques for doing the job that has to be done - cleaning up the environmental mess that is the oil fields. This is going to be more than lifetime jobs. And you can bet that the oil industry has no intention of doing it.
The alternative?
The oil industry, with its U.S. connections, will turn to U.S. help, possibly military help. Don't kid yourself. The U.S. is our enemy in this.
By the way, if the billionaires of the oil industry want a pipeline to the coast, why are we paying for it?

Big news from New Brunswick which probably won't appear in most news media. The Irvings are the billionaire family of New Brunwick. Some time ago, the New Brunswick government (owned by the Irvings) asked for and got a large loan from the province. (This story probably won't appear in the N.B. newspapers. The Irvings own all of them.)
Recently, the New Brunswick government forgave it's seven million dollar Irving loan. Wasn't that sweet?

Will Hong Kongers accept this? After all, this was the cause that created the violence in Hong Kong.
But they probably won't accept it. And this will probably become even more terrible.

David Suzuki writes that we may have just ten years to deal with climate change.
That means a massive effort. But oil bosses have no intention of allowing us to do anything.

While the leaders of the capitalist world criticize government, they commonly live off the tax money our governments collect from us. And each of these deals can run to billions of dollars. So much for 'free' enterprise. And it has been like this for centuries. In the days of the British empire, the British people lived in vile conditions to provide the very cheap labour and cheap soldiers and sailors the imperial bosses needed.

In our world of climate change, refugees are real. And they are not, as Trump tells us, drug dealers, perverts, and criminals. These are innocent people whose lives are being destroyed by our activities.

Canadians are amazingly naive about the U.S. It is, in fact, the only nation that has attacked Canada since the British did about 300 years ago. And it has routinely updated its invasion plans. So we can be sure there are up to date invasion plans.
U.S. governments have a long history of starving Americans, of denying them essential services - that's the mark of capitalist domination. You can be sure there is an American invasion plan now. And you can almost certainly be sure that there are Canadian capitalists who are part of it.
