- Huge “common sense” victory! New York Assembly wisely overwhelmingly passes CO2 frac ban, 97-50! March 12, 2024
- Frac’ing is a health crisis! Releases radiation: as airborn particles; *radon into homes and water wells*; in brine/waste dumped on leases, roads, croplands, pastures; contaminating farms, communities, wildlife, livestock, families (frac’ing has been linked to leukemia and lymphoma in kids), workers, foods, landfills, trucks and rig equipment March 12, 2024
- Time to smell the bitumen; Alberta collected less than $1 over 13 years from $Billion profit-raping tarsands companies for clean-up. Obviously, gov’t and AER don’t plan to make industry clean up or seal their climate chaos causing leaking wells. Companies only care about money and $billions in subsidies from ordinary Canadians (struggling to feed their kids), lots of lies, secrets, toxic cover-ups, refusing to pay taxes, and propagandizing you and your kids.

- West Virginia’s frac cruelty and toxic harms: EQT poisons, sickens and drives four families from their homes. Abby Tennant: “Our home is no longer a home. It is a place of sickness, confusion and sadness.” Remember Baytex? March 8, 2024
- Canada, finally, bans *all* use of strychnine (yes, even in Cruelville Alberta, effective September after six-month phase-out) – a terrible way to die. Health Canada found more strychnine was used than number of poisoned carcasses retrieved, resulting in strychnine-poisoned carcasses available for other animals to feed on, increasing risk of secondary poisoning. What will vile anti-life, anti-science Danielle Smith and her evil Evangelicals do? March 7, 2024
- Like frac’ers, AI devours fresh water and is grossly energy intensive and polluting. March 7, 2024
- Billionaire Gina Reinhart’s Benga/Northback Coal (wants to destroy Alberta’s Grassy Mountain, contaminate water for many) bribes Livingston School Division with $75,000 (that doesn’t buy many loads of water) and treats (indoctrinates) kids to breakfast using them as propaganda. Why do communities bribed by water raping corporations not say no? High River Mayor Craig Snodgrass has choice words of wisdom for Energy Minster Brian Jean and his floppy hush puppy, AER.

- Yet another white conservative “Christian” rapist of kids: Daniel Harris, pastor and CEO of Kaimen Centre, goes to prison for 18 yrs without chance of parole or early release. Meanwhile, in Canada, self regulators of lawyers grant law licence to known convicted pedophiles giving them protected access to kids to rape. March 6, 2024
- What does peace look like? ‘Woven Together’ by 13 year old Anja Rozen of Slovenia, Plakat Miru competition winner. What does a polluted earth look like? ‘Our World’ poem by 11 year old Scott Douglas Rea of Canada, killed at age 11 by drunk driver. March 6, 2024
- “It’s not pie. Equal rights for others does not mean fewer rights for you.” Rights are vanishing in real time for many, especially for people not cis male white. How long before rape is decriminalized in Canada by more and more of our “lawmakers” led and controlled by rape religions? March 6, 2024
- Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation councillor Mike Mercredi to industry’s self-regulator AER CEO Laurie Pusher: “You allow eight regulated cancer causing agents into the water. You’re allowing regulated murder…it’s slow industrial genocide. How many bodies? How many billions are you gonna be making before we’re all dead?” March 6, 2024
- Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation, tired of empty talk & promises, sues AER for failing to regulate Imperial Oil’s toxic spills from its leaking Kearl bitumen facility. AER says it’s seeking legal advice. (From lying lawyer Glenn Solomon who lied for AER in Ernst vs Encana or will they hire a different liar?) March 5, 2024
- Morgan Bassichis, Jewish Voice for Peace: ‘Not in Our Name: On Jews Rejecting Zionism.’ A common enemy: white supremacy and empire. “Everyone deserves the chance to be a kid and everyone deserves the chance to grow old. And for that reason…we reject Zionism. … Because it has been used as the premise for over 75 years of Palestinian dispossession, exile and death. Because it tries desperately to conflate Judaism with Zionism. When Judaism is our thousands-year-old rich tradition and Israel is a 75 year old settler colonial apartheid state. … Because none of us are free until all of us are free. From every river to every sea.” March 5, 2024
