I mean, I’m not gonna argue against that. That’s obvious to most here. But it’s also obvious we aren’t stopping oil. I’m helping the NDP as much as I can. At the same time Ford finished retooling the Oakville plant to make all-you-can-guzzle F-250 Super Duty. And the last time I checked the most sold vehicle in Canada was Ford F-150. I ride a bike and use transit. But we’re not stopping using oil today. We currently have no mechanism to stop it. The capital system won’t allow it. Taking political power could allow us to change direction, not stop. And that’s not on the horizon for at least a couple of years if not 4-6. People aren’t in enough of a crisis to demand change. The Iran war opened an opportunity but that didn’t come to a head. At this point I’m pretty sure we’re entering firmly into a damage control phase with AMOC disruption and all that. This is not an argument, just feels.

You’re right. 😥
We’re on the same page, comrade.
I do my best, I ride my bike as well and take all kinds of actions, but it’s going to take more than that.
