@calgaryclimatehub.caReposted by @markhamhislop.bsky.socialPrime Minister @mark-carney.bsky.social, the Calgary Climate Hub heartily endorses this challenge. Markham is a good friend of the Hub, one of Canada’s best energy writers and he plays fair ball. Make your case to Canadians! #cdnpoli #MarkCarney #ClimateChange #yyc
@markhamhislop.bsky.socialLukaszuk Warns Albertans Against Complacency on Oct. 19
@LukaszukAB says polls showing "remain in Canada" at 70% and the separatists still stuck at 20% should not change voters' intentions.

@markhamhislop.bsky.socialBet on the tractor, not the horse.

@markhamhislop.bsky.socialBattery Storage Beats Gas Peakers. Is Canada Backing the Wrong Horse?
Tech is tech. Electric tech (batteries, EVs, solar, etc) is following the exact adoption process that tractors and combines followed 100 years ago.
Bet on the tractor, not the horse.
