- Hey Fucker Truckers and your ignorant pals at Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms and True North Declaration: SARSCov2 messes with your brain and semen, reduces male fertility and worse, harms kids. Between human ego, stupidity, benzene, frac’ing and COVID-19, will human sperm go extinct? September 12, 2024

- Felonious Trump’s a fucking fool and a liar; bigger fools are those who worship him. Trump said Kamala Harris would ban frac’ing in Pennsylvania if she’s elected president, which he knows no president has the power to do. September 12, 2024
- Range Resources’ production casing failed during frac’ing, company cited by PA DEP for not reporting the failure immediately as required by law. Will DEP and Range publicly disclose all chemicals injected before during and after the failure? I doubt it. September 12, 2024

- “Very worrying” study: Methane pollution still rising rapidly, mostly caused by humans; Growth rates now higher than any past observed year. IEA says oil and gas sector *could* cut their emissions 40% at no net cost. Sure, they “could” but won’t, they’ll lie and rape out more profits and more deadly methane. Meanwhile, Insurance Bureau of Canada says Calgary’s 2024 hail storm cost $2.8B in insured damages, second costliest Canadian climate change disaster after Fort McMurray’s 2016 wildfire. Hello super polluter Alberta, stop blaming Trudeau for your greed, selfishness, corruption and lies. September 11, 2024

- AIMCo, Alberta’s own bankrupt frac’er sugar daddy, bails out Pieridae, just another dirty slimy oily sour gassy company in big debt. Is this why Danielle Smith and UCP want to steal pensions (CPP) of more than half of Canadians (including many that never lived or worked in Alberta)? September 4, 2024
- Dear CAPE, Stop enabling frac’ers! Calling again for yet more study (after decades and many hundreds of studies already) and regulation is synergy, which only aids frac’ers. No regulation or study can make frac’ing safe or return the massive volumes of water lost permanently from the hydrogeological cycle. Besides, companies just ignore laws and regulations, and regulators break laws and regulations letting them, *and* bully and abuse the frac-harmed, further aiding frac’ers. August 29, 2024
- 4.8M earthquake at Fox Creek, Frac Central Alberta, 3km depth. Many felt reports including six in Calgary and one 700 km away. Who is the frac’er and did they stop frac’ing? If not, will AER order them to stop or will Danielle Smith’s stooges on the board let the harms continue? August 24, 2024

- Hey, Josh Shapiro, I’m happy back stabber you didn’t get picked for running mate. Frac’d families suffer when politicians like you make deals with polluters like water frac’er Cabot (now Coterra). Dimock Water Now! How many decades must the people wait for the safe water their constitution guarantees them? August 22, 2024
- Who will walk the dog when everyone has Long COVID? As health authorities/politicians (notably super stupid TBA-led Smith’s UCP in Alberta) cater to anti-health, anti-science, anti-intelligence anti-vaxxers; remove health protections like easy to use N95 masks even in care and health facilities (how stupid is that?); intentionally destroy public health care to enrich their rich pals; lie to us, deny that SARSCoV2 is airborne and can kill kids (here’s looking at social murderer Dr. Bonnie Henry) and healthy athletes; and tell us the pandemic is over so that we go back to over-consuming, over-polluting, over-travelling, making billionaires richer while destroying earth’s livability.
