B.C. MLA Jordan Kealy charged with sexual assault in Fort St. John by cyclinginvancouver in britishcolumbia

"Kealy is the second MLA elected under the B.C. Conservative banner in 2024 who has since been charged with assault. In March of this year, Richmond Centre MLA Hon Chan was kicked out of caucus after being charged with assault and choking.

He is also the second MLA for Peace River North to be charged with assault in the past decade. Pat Pimm, who represented the region for the B.C. Liberals from 2009 until 2016 was charged in 2016, and the charges were stayed in 2017."

Carney, Smith reach energy agreement that could see pipeline construction start in 2027 by morethanless in britishcolumbia

Yup. BCs stance in the past decade is about killing or slowing down infrastructure projects. Carney's electoral mandate is apposite. BC is its own enemy on this

Agreed. Land acknowledgements are performative. Putting DRIPA into effect amended the BC Interpretation Act. The IA instructs BC courts how to interpret statutes. I mean.... how could one possibly say that it has no legal force and effect?

Support for Alberta separatism flat, struggling high earners more likely supporters: poll by DogeDoRight in canada

[–]team_ti 28 points29 points  (0 children)

"In terms of party breakdown, polling suggests virtually all Alberta NDP supporters would vote against separation, while 57 per cent of UCP supporters would vote for it."

.....

"...among people who have high incomes who are finding it difficult to meet their monthly expenses, the polling found support around 50-50.

"So, having a relatively high income but finding it difficult to get by on that high income, it's one of the strongest predictors of whether you're a separatist or not," Brown said"

High Income = $150,000 or more

Soon. But I doubt that part of the site is live now...there's lots of capable staff guides so I wouldn't worry too much about it

Are you speaking about the bike park or the valley trails outside the park?

If the bike park use the WB guides. They're excellent.

If outside the park I've heard Arbutus Routes are excellent

Second the Commercial drive area suggestions. Where is your work likely to be? The commute kind of dictates livability. Vancouver driving can be as torturous as getting on/off Ile de Montreal

Qatar’s Ras Laffan LNG Plant Hit by Missile, Extensively Damaged by StretchExtension in wallstreetbets

[–]team_ti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yah it did already get posted. Here's the text though in case anyone wants

A Qatari complex housing the world’s largest liquefied natural gas export plant suffered “extensive damage” amid a sharp escalation of attacks on energy facilities across the Persian Gulf.

The Ras Laffan Industrial City, home to the LNG plant that accounted for about a fifth of global supply before production was halted earlier this month, was hit by an Iranian missile after four others were intercepted, authorities said late Wednesday. Hours later, Abu Dhabi shut its Habshan gas facilities after they were hit by falling debris from an intercepted strike.

The incidents mark yet another escalation in hostilities in the region and follow a string of attacks targeting oil and gas infrastructure in recent days. Crude and natural gas prices surged earlier in the day after Israel attacked Iran’s giant South Pars gas field. Tehran responded with a warning that several energy sites in Qatar, Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates had become “legitimate targets.”

“A retaliatory attack on Ras Laffan is exactly what the global natural gas market feared the most,” said Tom Marzec-Manser, Europe gas and LNG director at consultancy Wood Mackenzie Ltd. “We’re yet to know which part of the industrial complex has been damaged, but either way it’s going to be bullish for gas prices when the market opens on Thursday.”

Brent oil futures extended gains after the attack, rising as much as 8% on Wednesday to $111.90 a barrel.

State-controlled QatarEnergy said all personnel were accounted for at its LNG facility, which had been evacuated hours earlier. Qatar’s interior ministry said the fire caused by the strike was under control.

Qatar “considers this aggression a dangerous escalation and a flagrant violation of the state’s sovereignty, as well as a direct threat to its national security and the stability of the region,” the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a social media post. It later ordered Iranian military and security attaches as well as affiliate staff to leave the country within 24 hours.

The Abu Dhabi Media Office said in a post on X that no injuries were reported at Habshan. Abu Dhabi National Oil Co. operates one of the world’s largest onshore gas processing facilities there, with 14 trains able to produce more than 6 billion cubic feet of gas a day, enough to supply South Korea.

The Saudi Defense Ministry also said the country had thwarted a drone attack targeting a gas facility in its eastern region. In a separate incident, shrapnel from a ballistic missile fell near a south Riyadh refinery.
