So who’s ‘woke,’ what does it mean and how is it being used in Canadian politics? | CBC News:

Some Liberals distance themselves

After Poilievre was elected to lead the Conservatives, a number of Liberal MPs told Radio-Canada that they want their party to shift to the centre to combat Poilievre’s populist brand of conservatism.

“We
need a government that is down to earth and less woke,” one MP,
speaking on the condition they not be identified, told Radio-Canada.

Poilievre
would later call the Liberals and the NDP — who are supporting the
government through a confidence-and supply-agreement — a “radical woke
coalition” in his first address to caucus as Conservative leader.

Why Natural Gas Is a ‘Bridge Fuel’ to Nowhere | The Tyee:

Lately, the fossil fuel industry has begun referring to natural gas as a “bridge fuel” or an essential part of a low-carbon energy transition.

Climate researchers stress that natural gas bridges can often lead to nowhere. Reliance on natural gas can lock countries into fossil fuels, crowd out low-carbon technologies and risk stranding assets like coal mines and hydrocarbon reserves that drop in value as a result of energy transitions.

Our research
finds that this bridge narrative is growing in Canada and making
inroads in climate policy, and fossil fuel companies are winning the
battle on how we talk about natural gas expansion.

Kenney calls on energy industry to intervene in court challenge of ‘no more pipelines’ act:

Kenney listed the IAA
as part of the ongoing obstacles the industry faces while addressing
the Alberta Industrial Heartland Association annual conference in
Edmonton, on Thursday morning.

“(The) federal approvals
process … creates uncertainty and unnecessary delays and that is exactly
why we kept our commitment to sue the federal government on the
constitutionality of the bill.”

Amicus curiae filings
are often done in high-profile cases by those who are interested or
could be impacted by a court ruling but are not part of the case itself.

The
IAA, also known as Bill C-69 and dubbed by critics as the “no more
pipelines” bill, was passed by the federal government in 2019 in an
effort to improve Canada’s environmental protection laws. It changed
what factors are weighed and reviewed in making approval decisions.
