The eye-wateringly expensive Trans Mountain pipeline was only completed by Canadian taxpayers shelling out $34 billion, of which the public will likely be out of pocket over $18 billion even if it is finally sold to private investors.

That is the sort of money needed to bring to start a high speed rail system, which would very likely have better long term results.

Would be an option. Another really good one would be a reform of the election system. It is insane that Labour got 2/3 of the seats in parliament with only 1/3 of the votes. Even worse with Reform polling at about 1/3 of the votes right now.

Russia is worse then the US is, but the US is working on it. Both are helping out likeminded European groups. Musk was turning up at German and British facist party events for a reason.

And here I was worried, that it might end up in a democracy.

They will complain that the US is paying for Canadian health care.

There is the reason the Ferhman-Belt tunnel is being built. Perfect to avoid the Danish parts of Jutland. It even manages to avoid Vikings history for the most part. After all that bit was Slavic back then.

They predicted peak population about now at 7.7billion or so. They did include falling birth rates into their models as even back then rich countries had below replacement rate fertility rates. As of right now we are not a peak population though.

Click on the gear icon next to "YouTube" on the bottom of the video. The top menu point allows you to switch the language and there you need to select English.

They want to kick out foreign competition, while being able to produce ice cars, as they are more profitable to them then evs, as they lack the technology. Also the oil lobby is helping them, so good move.
