It's been under the guise of the buy local "100 km radius" idea for environmental reasons, but I've been doing this for a couple decades. It's nice to see that others are finally starting to come around.

For three years, the people of Ukraine have fought with extraordinary courage in the face of Russia’s brutal and unjustified invasion. They alone have the right to determine what is best for their long-term security. Canada stands with Ukraine. Slava Ukraini!

Feb 22nd 2025 - What a gorgeous early afternoon before the clouds moved in in Labrador West. Big blue skies and little wind. A great day to do 18km #nlwx #ShareYourWeather #TheBigLand #LabradorLife #nature #canon #Labrador #winter #snow #thenorth #wethenorth #labradorwest #ywk #labradorstrong

I suppose I need to add that the temperature in "nearby" Millertown this morning was -9 C. I experienced the Badger cold pool one morn driving out to the ferry, it can catch you by surprise as your car windows start quickly fogging up as you take the plunge. #nlwx #nltraffic

@mark-carney.bsky.social @ianhanomansing.bsky.social When will Canada pony up $2B to create public positions for out of work scientists and researchers, funding their move across the border, solving our under-performing STEM sector and becoming a scientific superpower nearly overnight?

Another dataset I like is from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program, which has maps of the US that show we fixed the acid rain problem by implementing stricter emission controls on power plants. nadp.slh.wisc.edu/maps-data/nt...

Yes. Yes everyone does have issues with the way this topic is framed. How about "Has your love of Canada strengthened and what does your country mean to you given Trump's 51st state threats"?

Reagan made it ok for rich people to do what they like without consequence. Trump made it ok for everyone else to.

So much of what Trump is doing right now is has many shades of what Harper did during his mandates, from alienating our allies, defunding organizations against his morals, getting rid of hundreds of federal scientists and civil servants while muzzling the rest, and derailing Environment Canada.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center say results of a Phase I trial of an mRNA vaccine aimed at preventing pancreatic cancer show promise. The vaccine PREVENTED the cancer from coming back in patients who had already received treatment for MORE THAN three years. 🧪🧵⬇️

History teaches us that when governments begin persecuting a vulnerable minority group while simultaneously making it harder for members of that group to escape persecution by fleeing abroad... it doesn't end well for anyone. www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...

The point of these is not to enforce them. The point of this is to terrify trans people and ban them from public life. "What would I do if I lived in Nazi Germany" used to be a thought experiment. Now you will find out if you were telling the truth. Unrelated, you can buy chisels online.

To the Northern Canadians who think they will have leverage in the discussions about what happens to their resources, take a look at the cod collapse and the wonderful way the marine resources have been handled by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. You have a huge fight ahead of you.

Remote sensing hive minds, I need your help with wind products: We used to be able to get QuikScat swath data (instead of the gridded product) to determine discrete wind speed measurements from a general region. Is there another scatterometer product available now that offers swath data files? 🛰️🌊🧪

All ferries are cancelled in that time span? As much as I love the ferry between Halifax and Dartmouth, this is a nearly impossible thing to work around in any timely manner if I don't have a car, given the size of Bedford Basin.

Over my mostly private-sector career, I’ve heard the suggestion that government is incompetent and the private sector is efficient and effective. Many times I’ve seen the opposite, with the private sector often shockingly incompetent but largely un-scrutinized like the public sector is. Until now.

The prairie provinces oddly are very conservative yet their cities seem to be the most progressive when it comes to things like housing and transit.
