Bite me, Musk.

Progressive political commentator (print, radio, podcasts) for years. I post a lot: breaking news + legit info you can use, prone to snark. My mini Australian Labradoodle, Hamilton, has trained me well.

Now where's my trough of wine? 🍷🇺🇸🇨🇦

“Billions of people are using different kinds of energy each day and 2023 was a record-breaking year for renewable energy sources — ones that don’t emit planet-warming pollutants like carbon dioxide and methane…

For the first time, 30% of electricity produced worldwide was from clean energy sources as the number of solar and wind farms continued to grow fast.”

So I did ask, but seems you didn't have anything you needed included in my next How to Move to Canada series post... which is fine!

But I bet you will AFTER I post it, right? Oh well. I'll try to answer what I can if you do have questions.

I'm nearly done writing it.

@chris Didn't we have this convo the other day? Thank you by the way.

No, we're just permanent residents, no intention of becoming citizens. I covered that in my first 2 posts.

@DWTSquawk7600 I covered that in my second post, I believe. Maybe even my first.

@DWTSquawk7600 Good question, btw. I highly recommend using an attorney unless you qualify easily.

Pete McCloskey, a California congressman who raised a flag of rebellion against President Richard M. Nixon’s war policies in Vietnam with a spirited but futile race for the Republican presidential nomination in 1972, died on Wednesday at his home in Winters, Calif., west of Sacramento. He was 96.

@fulanigirl That's more complicated. No, we had to open an account in a Canadian bank, and when we have to, we wire money up there, at a cost.
