Grid Regulator Warns Of Supply-Chain-Related Power Outages This Summer
Supply chain issues and shuttered power plants mean parts of Canada could experience widespread power outages this summer, according to an annual report by a continental grid regulator.

That number would likely be exacerbated by an additional shortfall of 5,000 megawatts in the case of extreme heat and further fire damage to existing power lines.

Critics Warn Feds Will Use ‘Domestic Terrorism’ Law To Silence Dissent
The domestic terrorism bill passed by the House this week targets “white supremacists” and “neo-nazis.”
