The apocalyptic skies over our cities should be a wake up call. American politicians are blaming arson. Canadian politicians assure us that by massively expanding oil infrastructure we can deal with emissions down the road. We have run out of road. My latest. substack.com/home/post/p-...

No doubt in American Republican minds that these are Antifa, atheist, transgender, fentanyl-smuggling arsonists who immigrated illegally from brown or black-skinned countries.

We need to continue to support the oil industry until such time as we can transition entirely to other sources. And that will not be for years if not decades. Your disingenuous post is disgusting.

Republican politicians are rage-farming idiots. Alleging misdeeds based on zero evidence, just to gain political support. Not even worthy of consideration.

FFS, this is NOT specific to Canada and frankly it's NOT our business. OREGON is on fire every single year. You don't hear us whine nor do you hear the rest of the country even give a shit about it...knock this crap off. WE HAVE OUR OWN NIGHTMARE RIGHT NOW.

"To shift the huge problem of debt, the government established a shell corporation, TMX Finance. It has no employees, but this shell entity holds all the debt. This has allowed the government to claim that the pipeline is profitable." Read that again Alberta #abpoli

Fires know no boundaries. Americans also provide help: The U.S. is mobilizing resources to aid in wildfire suppression efforts, including: Federal firefighting personnel Airtankers for aerial firefighting Complex incident management teams (CIMTs) Overhead staff for coordination and management

It takes willful blindness not to see the impact of climate change in action... This will be the new normal until our boreal forests have been burned and displaced by scrubland, unlocking vast amounts of carbon and losing vital sinks

Same view, same cell phone camera, same time of day... no filters just the smoke from 1000 fires Ontario. #climatechange #ClimateKillerCarney

God, Charlie that's horrible.

Charlie, you should invite Dr Suzanne Simard onto your show to discuss how aerial spraying of glyphosate on crown land has exacerbated fire intensity. Stop the spray is low hanging fruit to help manage this problem going forward.

Ответ для uncivil-servant

Wish NB premier believed it was a problem but no, she’s been bought and paid for by the Irving corp.

Ответ для Berni 🇨🇦

It's been the status quo for so long people think pure stands of conifer are normal. They're not. People who aren't aware think you're crazy when you tell them about aerial glyphosate spraying because it sounds absolutely nuts!

Canada needs to create a NATIONAL version of the old version of Ontario's 'Junior Ranger Program' I had the chance to enjoy in the summer of 1985 when I got paid a small amount plus basic train transportation from Toronto to Kenora. Make it 50% tree planting and support for forest fire fighters.

The human species is a cancer.

The Brundtland Report gave us ten years to get fossil fuel under control or this would happen. We ran out of road in 1997.

Where is the proof of arson? Something... something, boreal forests, lightning, fossil fuel emissions. One would assume a minimal level of intelligence when speaking on important issues.

Ford got himself a posh plane while water bombers weren't purchased. We need to do something about the level of corruption in our government, that's all officials. This can't go on. We need to be able to prosecute officials that aren't acting in good faith and we need electoral reform. It can't.

Ответ для Rachel Wales

We need to be able to trust them. Right now, we have one lousy unaccountable government on top of other lousy governments and the deterioration is cumulative.

Ответ для Rachel Wales

Some of them need to go to jail and we need to be able to remove officials that don't act in good faith. We are sitting ducks that bank roll these folks to cheat us, to harm our institutions, to harm our people through negligence. This can't go on Charlie.

Ответ для Rachel Wales

Our governments should never be an extension of their businesses. We should never take direction from unelected officials because they paid to play. We need to beef up the services and the institutions that serve us. Under no circumstances should we be financing their schemes. It's theft.

the oil industry is directly responsible, but they really REALLY want more money.

Suddenly our Liberal Government is turning red with right wing propaganda confirming their regression into the past of oil and gas production. They have stopped a great deal of investments into environmentally safe methods of producing energy. I half expect them to start praising coal any day now.

we have been on a single track dirt laneway for decades. The road crew abandoned responsibility for the project long, long ago.

Climate Crisis, Global Heating. Climate Crisis, Global Heating. Climate Crisis, Global Heating.

It’s the politicians and corporations true. But we elect the politicians. We or at least the vast majority refuse to make any changes to how we live. We are all addicted to mindless consumption, we could switch to greener energy, we could demand for cleaner and sustainable transportation. We don’t.

All this to promote your Substack article with no real critique of the capitalist system behind it all. Typical liberals.

Our young people think this is normal because this is all they seen but when I was a child even a teenager even in my twenties there weren't any fires like this. I never had fires like this or really fires at all.

FYI: we flood them with smoke from our wildfires also. It’s not a national problem, it is global.

Canadian "wild fires" are the American oligarchs data centers. To deal with the real problem you actually have to deal with the real problem!

US and canada to have the highest emissions per capita... and seem to dont care.. I especially love being told by americans to install AC in europe as if thats going to protect the forest, farmland or nature. I dont think people are fecking understanding how bad it is going to get and how quick

I would rather have clean air, clean water, and beautiful forests than data centers and pipelines, personally. We can't eat or drink or breathe money, yaknow? I know that might be a bit beyond a neoliberal central banker like Carney, but man do I not care at all about the unimportant fascist slop.

Birds often go silent when there is danger nearby. They also go silent when they are gone.

Ответ для Jonny Skedge

Fire season in BC has been ongoing for decades, exacerbated by pine beetle epidemic, left hundreds of thousands of hectares of dead trees, tinder for infernos. That should have been wake-up call: climate is changing, humans have obligation to make difference, stop/slow emissions, we didn’t: fail.

well if you had raked the forest like finland this wouldnt be a problem, would it? 🙄

They wont stop until they own you in there own manufactured bubbles where they sell you everything even the filtered air and drinking water they are sickend by the fact that they cant control every bodies behaviours so they force their ideas onto you through your despire.

This is a frightening and recurring unhealthy situation..

This is a consequence of fossil fuel use. I hope it was worth it.

Ha! We should be using AI on ideas for pollution, combating fires, instead of how to redecorate our living rooms and hair cuts that suit us.

Even if we all had electric cars etc we will always need oil

Ответ для 1aud1

Yes , probably 30-50% of what we use now and a lot of that for non combustion purposes.

Charlie, it's so embarrassing to see all this outdated hoopla about fossil fuel expansion whilst our country burns.

Canada cannot manage this without the polluter to the South taking action.

I agree with you Mr Angus. This IS NOT the way! Mr Carney, listen up.

Ответ для harriedwife

Ya, he apparently doesn't care WHATSOEVER. So much for feeling hopeful when he was elected. 😑

It’s pay back for screwing us over wth softwood lumber for years and years and years.

Wind and solar power need to be Paramount. We need to be eliminating gas and coal scientists have found ways to pull carbon from our and plastic from our ocean. We should probably listen to them politicians don’t know what they’re talking about.! how about we eliminate politicians

This is the legacy we are leaving the next generation .. #sad #disgusting 🔥🤬

Ответ для Anik 🇨🇦🐸

this rate there might not be a next generation. Crops are going to start failing by drought, fire or lack of pollinators but as long as the world cup and idiots fascinate the populace everything's fine I hate living in a world were muppets are entertained while the planet goes down the pooper

Nuclear is clean and emission free The solution is available

Ответ для Cainethejust 🇨🇦 ☢

The average lead time to get a new nuke power plant online is 8-12 years. We don't have that long. Meanwhile, the global build-out of solar has accelerated to the point where, every couple months, it's now adding the generating capacity equivalent to a typical nuke plant.

Yes, all that nuclear waste is clean. For sure!

The people who could stop this can’t be woken up in to any normal world. They are greedy sociopaths. The only way forward is a total eradication of the 0.1%. Or, preferably, eradicating their wealth. Either way, a reset is required.

as if you can buy and burn your way out of this

👹👹👹😫😫😫F ALL U FOSSIL FOOLS!

It will take a black swan event to get humans to change

It's was EXACTLY like this in 1999, the last time the wildfires up in Canada were this out of control. Same smell, same sky, same breathability. From Baltimore MD in the US. THAT'S HOW LONG IT'S BEEN since a wild fire THIS LARGE.

I’m all the way over on Long Island, NY. Grey skies, haze, smell of smoke… Gets caught in the throat. Come on. Let’s get our act together! This isn’t healthy. It’s 2026 for Christ sake.

Expanding oil infrastructure... down the road ... It's like having Titanic's captain saying: "We need more ice on board".

Europe is breaking temperature records each year and Southern Europe burns to the ground each Summer, they're battling Climate change, but what does it help when America doesn't?

That road ran out some time ago.

Hopefully it'll get global coverage during the world cup game. We need folks to wake up and it might hit home when they can't see the players or ball because of the smoke. But who am I kidding, the world will prolly shrug it off and stay drunk on oil #OkayDoomer 🫠

I’m generally against capitol punishment, but if ever come to power, every politician or “captain of industry” who said the phrase “Sustainable oil and gas” shall be drowned in oil. Breathe that oil in, you fucks.

Between the oceans filling with oil from sunken tankers to the fumes from deregulated factories, petroleum products will cover the earth and us. There will be no more breathing without a filter.

that will be the beginning of the problems. crops arent going to grow with drought, fire, no pollinators.

Well, they're right! It IS arson. What else would you call it when scientists warn you for decades about the consequences of your actions will be a massive increase in wildfires, and you continue doing exactly what you know will cause these fires? They just don't admit that they are the arsonists.

It's stupid. We have alternatives. It's time to say no to these assholes.

a country, a province like Alberta designed by God to have made it possible to have God given truly clean energy from the sun and the wind, has been given to O&G billionaires by Smith and Carney, following Trump's lead drill baby driill and make Canadian citizens pay the costs financial & social

By the time the pipelines get built (if and when), no one will want to buy oil anyway.
