Darned Trudeau.
The CEO of ATCO said Asian partners in a major hydrogen project say they won't make final investment decisions unless there is certainty around the separatism question. https://t.co/JRJHBFGKNI

What is the 'state-of-the-art' set of bioinformatic tools to do metabolic pathway prediction for eukaryotic genomes (microbial eukaryotes)? Is it still KEGG Mapper...what are some others?

This is reality that is nuttier than parody
The entire point of my creation of this X account is to advocate for the Libertarian faction of the Alberta Independence movement. Maximum freedom. Hard work. Lowest taxation. Nature preservation. Neutrality in world politics. No NATO. No wars. No mass visas. That is the recipe

Brilliant and important work by the incredible @nooryoussef03 !!!

This US hedge-fund owned newspaper couldn't print more mendacious propaganda. Apparently putting a price on carbon emissions is a "climate obsession". Are we in 1980 or in 2025?

Someone please tell @ABDanielleSmith that the Coastal Gas Link pipeline was not built on the basis of federal authority over works and undertakings. The NEB/CER explicitly refused to take jurisdiction over the project.

Now seems like a good opportunity to re-up this thread. What has Canada ever done for Alberta? A lot, actually.
This perspective is both frustratingly selfish and annoyingly common. What has Canada ever done for us as Albertans, folks like Staples wonder? A lot, as it happens. Let's get it into it. A thread: 🧵

So they don't 'need' the electricity from Ontario? If so, then Drug Ford can just turn it off and nobody will complain right? Oh wait...he had a tantrum last time that was threatened...but why? It's not like they need the electricity....so puzzling.
Nothing says “serious world leader” like throwing a tantrum on social media minutes before meeting the leader of one of our closest allies.

"Carnage." Because, you know, the Trump-style name-calling worked out so well for you guys.
Need about a year for the Canadians who voted for Carnage to see their results and reflect that it was a bad idea to vote for him.

The CPC needs to stop with right-wing populism and emulating the Trumpists.
Conservatives have lost the last 4 elections to the Liberals. The CPC will be looking for their 5th leader in 10 years. This party needs a serious makeover, having Pierre Poilievre as your leader was an epic failure. Bring back the Progressive Conservative Party.

Why does the @globeandmail invite @LiciaCorbella to engage in half-truths. No, Bill c69 was not ruled unconstitutional. One act of three passed under it was, and that act had since been amended. And JT did not pass new legislation to cancel Gateway. https://t.co/T1MoDr2knK
