Brian Zinchuk: Only sheer and utter incompetence at the top could result in Alberta again issuing electrical grid alerts
Alberta issues electrical grid alert same day wind power collapsed across AB, SK, MB, ND, SD, IA, NE, OK, IA, MO, AR. NM and TX
Brian Zinchuk: Reliability of the electrical grid is everything. Without it, nothing else matters
We’re building the BHP Jansen mine, the biggest potash mine in the world. It needs 200 megawatts. What do we do if build a whole bunch of wind power, like Alberta’s 3,618 megawatts, and it drops to 2 megawatts? Sorry, boys shut her down. Good luck coming out tonight, or breathing when the ventilation loses power. The feds said we can’t use coal or gas anymore, so good luck.
Jim Warren: Reaping what they’ve sown: how the anti-development approval processes demanded by environmentalists are now blocking green energy projects
The sorry history of the Trans Mountain pipeline project actually reflects a phenomenon that has been frustrating environmentalists across North America. The Byzantine environmental approval processes that environmental activists and green politicians constructed over the last several decades now make it virtually impossible to get anything in the way of large infrastructure projects approved and completed. And that includes green energy infrastructure projects.
Brian Zinchuk: Ford and Tesla just signalled the beginning of the end of electric vehicle charging format war

This isn’t just Betamax vs VHS. It’s Betamax vs VHS vs DVD, at the same time.
Brian Crossman: Taking a break to add some perspective on health care
I’m gonna take a little detour today to discuss the health care in Saskatchewan. Why would I do this you might ask? While I am not a fan about writing about my personal life, in order to get to the point I have to.
