As climate induced hell-fires rage across the country, Canada looks to build pipelines — in the name of national unity

The country is literally on fire. So we better get to work building more pipelines, thereby enabling us to pump even more oil out of the ground and have even bigger, hotter, wilder, more out-of-control fires.

This seems to be the main takeaway from the new détente reached between Ottawa and the provinces in the name of fighting the threat posed by U.S. President Donald Trump.

Nobody dares to spoil this sudden feel-good vibe by even hinting at how badly we’re failing on the climate front. Such talk has effectively been banished.
