Brian Zinchuk: On Wednesday wind power generation in Alberta collapsed yet again, but renewables are our salvation, right?

Brian Zinchuk: On Wednesday wind power generation in Alberta collapsed yet again, but renewables are our salvation, right?

We cannot start to experience brownouts and blackouts like California. We can’t have hospitals running on generators because we choose to screw up the best thing we have going in modern society – reliable power generation. Lives will hang in the balance if we get this wrong, and our society is rapidly moving towards screwing this up.

Brian Crossman: I want to buzz the tower in my flying electric car. Talk to me, Goose

I’m gonna let all ya’ll in on a secret about electric cars. I have always wanted one. Ever since I was a little kid when my brother and I received a “TYCO AFX” slot car track for Christmas. It was a figure eight, with two very cool cars. I think my ten year old self was blown away by the sudden acceleration and how that same sudden acceleration would propel my very cool car right off the track. Awesome! It was literally hours of fun in the pre video game era. I secretly plan to buy another slot car track soon. (Christmas is in five months, honey!)

David Yager: As the world pivots on climate policy, Canada keeps pitching last year’s plan

David Yager: As the world pivots on climate policy, Canada keeps pitching last year’s plan

Only a year ago, Canada was determined to be a climate leader in every way. Last July the federal government announced it would not only meet its 2030 targets but exceed them. Instead of cutting emissions by 30 per cent from 2005 levels, the new goal was 40 to 45 per cent. This was part of the Liberal election platform on September 20, 2021. Framework legislation was introduced earlier this year. 

On July 18, Ottawa reminded Canadians that its emission reduction goals would not be interrupted by events as trivial as geopolitical energy chaos.
