This is a remarkable finding, especially the latter number: 70 Mt in emissions reductions, just in Alberta! For reference, the two policies higher carbon pricing would replace, the oil and gas emissions cap and the clean electricity regulations, would each reduce emissions about…

🇨🇦 Canadians boycotting the United States are actually moving the needle. Las Vegas alone has taken a four-billion-dollar hit because Canadians chose not to go. The American alcohol industry is down another nine hundred million. That is real impact.

We all knew as it was in the news before Carney even became PM. Plan was always to transition to more efficient process that needs less staff; employees have known for long time. Fed funding is to allow company to survive Trump tariffs which they'll do by transitioning early.

CEO of Algoma Steel: "The carbon price is not our biggest problem right now....our carbon intensity will be 70% lower, so we'll actually have an advantage against our competitors who use blast furnace. It's a competitive advantage."

Trump has released a Latin American leader convicted of exporting cocaine, while threatening a military strike on another Latin American leader based on unproven allegations of exporting cocaine. Also, he is interfering in Honduras's election count.
