Matina Stevis-Gridneff (@MatinaStevis): "Canadian red tape is worse than Trump tariffs This is a valuable reality-check: industry leaders tell @IlyaGridneff @FT that there is a gap between what PM Mark Carney says & what's really happening on the ground, that's costing Canada $$$ https://giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/actions/redeem/07def50f-d16f-4674-a038-7a9cde8e2951" | nitter https://nitter.net/MatinaStevis/status/2048467587080614250#m #CanPol #cdnpoli #FinancialTimes

"Kevin O’Leary’s massive data centre and gas plant planned in northwestern Alberta .. gas-fired power plant will generate roughly the amount of energy used by eight million households in a year, or 15 cities the size of Calgary, setting the province back about 20 years in its emissions reduction efforts.. Alberta regulator dismissed the nearby Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation’s (SLCN) appeal of a water licence for a six-million-cubic-metre annual withdrawal .. Municipality of Greenview, which so far has spent $70 million on making the area attractive for data centre developers, submitted the water license application.. Alberta’s system is “deliberately bifurcated such that First Nations need to go to court to challenge.. In 2025, Greenview’s council, along with three other nearby counties, declared an agricultural disaster due to drought #abpoli #cdnpoli https://www.theenergymix.com/earths-largest-ai-data-centre-in-alberta-just-got-bigger/

Today is Earth Day, but each year it can feel a little more like Groundhog Day. While we replay the same pipeline debates in Canada, the rest of the world is racing ahead on renewable energy — which is growing so fast that it met all new electricity demand in 2025. It’s time for Canada to catch up. Let's make Canada a renewable energy superpower. https://www.cbc.ca/news/science/solar-wind-ember-renewables-electricity-9.7170953 #cdnpoli #EarthDay

Unfortunately we ARE going back to this, in Alberta. The whole point of book banning is to reduce exposure to diversity, especially to the most easily influenced. Who do you think benefits from that? Exposure to diverse views and experiences allows children to develop empathy, shielding them from control through reactionary hate speech, divisive politics, and disinformation. #abpoli #cdnpoli #books #censorship #Hate #HateSpeech #diversity #dei #inclusion

The future of electricity is wind and solar, new report says. Canada is lagging behind

Conservative Stephen Harper praised fascist dictator Orban, which has been rightfully remembered. Conservative Danielle Smith praised war criminal Putin, it was one of the first things she did once elected. Conservative Pierre Poilievre still can't get his security clearance for some reason. #Canada #Conservative #CdnPoli

He claimed it wasn’t a project, even though the province has a page for it on their website calling it a “major project.” He criticized the news release as premature, even though he posted proudly about it on his LinkedIn, calling it a “validation” of the government’s data centre strategy. And he said there were no financial incentives being offered, even though the government promised 0% data centre tax levied on projects that bring their own power (which is the majority) compared to the small number of data centres connecting to the grid who have to pay the government levy. The minister gave a performance like no other at a recent town hall in Olds. I obtained a recording of the meeting and reported on it in my recent article for The Mix! https://www.theenergymix.com/common-sense-to-keep-10b-data-centre-1-4-gw-gas-plant-far-from-town-alberta-minister-says/ #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli #canpoli #AIdatacentres #environment #climate

Avi Lewis on Breakfast Television. His observations on the Libs accepting social conservative Marilyn Gladu was kinda funny. Anyway, as always, he did well in putting forward the progressive vision of the NDP. https://www.cp24.com/news/canada/2026/04/09/dont-know-what-it-means-to-be-a-liberal-anymore-ndp-leader-avi-lewis-on-recent-floor-crossing/ #cdnpoli #ndp #canpoli #avilewis

@Beltliner403@mastodon.online Lol, there's the understatement of the century! Remember, many NATO countries had to draw up plans of defence in case of an attack by the United States on them! People don't just forget that. #CDNPoli #CanPoli
