- Well deserved Francesca Albanese on winning the Dries van Agt Award! “In a world where justice is often a matter of negotiation,” you constantly remind the world what’s truly at stake. From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be Free. February 14, 2025
- Antarctica: Previously unknown massive methane emissions might represent an environmental bomb for earth’s climate, could cause huge landslides with potential to generate tsunamis. “The researchers, on board the ship Sarmiento de Gamboa, have observed columns of methane in the ocean up to 700 meters long and 70 meters wide” February 13, 2025
- AER gets a new “dickhead:” Rob Morgan, was Sr VP and COO of Crew Energy when it perf’d and frac’d directly into fresh water aquifers near Grand Prairie (and AER let it get away with it), says industry’s self regulator is “responsible and effective” – ya, sure, in covering up corporate crimes, helping polluters destroy drinking water and walking from hundreds of $billions in clean-up. February 13, 2025
- Alberta: Gear Energy wants to frac under Crane Lake, violating AER Guide 56 to do so. PS Encana also violated Guide 56 when it illegally frac’d directly into Rosebud’s fresh water aquifers, aided by AER. Instead of consultation, we got secrets, lies, charter violations, and contaminated drinking water. February 12, 2025
- Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! Adolf Orange forbids the words *women* *female* *females* from National Science Foundation documents. Fascists hate women and girls even more than they hate science and data. The orange coward can ban words defining us, but not our courage or stamina. Ban Frac’ers! Ban Trump! February 11, 2025
- AER, tarsands industry self regulator, let slippery CNRL appeal $278,000 fine for killing over 400 migratory birds in toxic waste lake (NOT A POND!); unravelling its own sanction against the polluting killer. Self regulation in oil & gas is a big fat fail, just like in Canada’s legal-judicial industry and authorities know it, but the rich demand it, ensuring law violations and harms continue, unabated, making the rich more money. Killing workers doesn’t even get charges that stick to CNRL. February 11, 2025
- Dear Mr. Micheal Moroskat, Director, Coal & Mineral Development: I think your letter IL 2025-06 is a trick to make Albertans stop publicly opposing UCP/Gina Rinehart et al’s lies, treachery, secret deals and the coal mines that will turn ugly our Rockies, contaminate drinking water for many and air, homes, businesses, lands, pets, livestock, wildlife, fish and health. “Advanced” projects like Grassy Mountain, and leases granted in 2020 must be killed. Rape by coal and frac, and abuse by AER must stop. February 10, 2025
- Funny! This Hour Has 22 Minutes on USA’s war of hate and greed against Canada: “Cheetos? No! Hawkins! … War is no time for soft cheesies!” Using American made toilet paper “is like wiping your arse with the Charter of Rights!” February 10, 2025
- Letter to bigot Trump & Congress on scientific understanding of sex and gender from Societies of Study of Evolution, American Naturalists and Systematic Biologists. Danielle Smith and her UCP led by evangelical Take-Back-Alberta-into-the-dark-ages needs to read it too. February 9, 2025
- Denbury (now ExxonMobil) fined $2,366,900.00 for 6 accounts of aggressive interference with safety inspections and harassing and blocking officials trying to inspect repairs to the Dehli pipeline that failed in 2020 sending 45 Sataria residents to hospital with CO2 poisoning: “It displays a brazen disregard for appropriate safety oversight. No industry polices itself well, so strong and effective regulators, including inspectors, are necessary to keep our communities safe.” February 9, 2025
- Bravo and Thank You! Scott Schmidt, Layout Editor for Alberta’s Medicine Hat News, brilliantly sums up Premier Danielle Smith betraying Canada and Canadians to kiss the ring of “objectively one of the most disgusting humans on Earth.” February 8, 2025
- If Adolf Orange annexes Canada, I expect Nazi Musk’s DOGE SS officers will exterminate all non whites on Turtle Island, starting with First Nations, never mind consult and recognize Indigenous sovereignty and treaty rights or water. February 8, 2025
- Average First Nations life expectancy now two decades shorter than other Albertans; “each reason is…connected to the violence of colonialism.” February 8, 2025

- Letter to America by Pete McMartin: “Farewell to my American friends. It’s over … Canada is superior to the U.S. in all the ways that matter” while quislings Danielle Smith/TBA/UCP pray it up with the Nazis in Washington. February 7, 2025
