barking up the wrong bungee cord

Persona non-grata tit for tat between Canada and China.

I suppose it could have been worse; instead of dispatching the Canadian delegate out of China, they could have just put the person in jail like they did the two Michaels.

Electric bus manufacturer here in Quebec just got a big order for electric buses, many of which will come into my city. This is good for our environment, and also good for our economy since the buses are being made here.

Activists made the news from my local town - a forest upon whose land is owned by a land development company is under threat of development and the activists want to put a stop to this to 'Save Fairview Forest'. I am torn about this; while keeping the forest is good ecologically, the forest is right up and abutted against a new REM station. I believe that building super high density housing connected and adjacent to a REM station, with mixed use development, can reduce dramatically the number of cars that would be put on the road by the population moving in. I suspect this would have a much bigger impact on reducing GHGs as compared to saving the forest.

There you have it, national, provincial and local stories.
