2025 Canadian Political Thread

[licks2nite]

Today:
•rare mineral mining for New Brunswick
•nickel mine for Ontario. CBC back in the '90s broadcast in most every newscast for weeks about the abundance of nickel in Canada. Wonder if another nickel mine can make any difference.
•more LNG for BC. At an inlet north of Prince Rupert.
•hydroelectric for arctic coast. $3 million budgeted for designing and planning. Estimate half billion to completion for 5 mega watts. Contrast Site C $16 billion for 500 mega watts or 480,000 homes. Churchill Falls $3.5 billion 1971 and 5000 mega watts.

We looking at an arctic pipeline terminus?

Sisson in New Brunswick makes sense.
Crawford in Ontario is debatable.
LNG is probably okay.
I wouldn't bother with the Arctic hydro.

Silencing the Scientists: Dissent, Censorship, and the New Technocracy
By Mark Keenan

...not censorship in the old sense of banning or burning books, today’s suppression often takes the form of reduced visibility — algorithms that downrank or bury dissenting views until they are difficult to find.

...studies that confirm policy rather than challenge it — producing policy-based evidence instead of evidence-based policy.

Money rules. If science professionals can't speak their mind, those off the grid need to find and explore rabbit holes. Google concepts taking too much for granted and terms you don't understand. Try asking AI for decenting views.
