- Hurricane Lee is expected in the Maritimes this weekend.

- The idea of "using oceans for carbon capture" can mean a lot of things, some of them more benign (and realistic) than others. Some of them (such as the idea to dump alkaline material into the oceans) strike me as less than realistic, especially if one factors in what is needed to produce said alkaline material.
- Back in the 1980s a national task force concluded that Canada had too many doctors for its population and recommended limiting the number of doctors trained as a cost-cutting measure. The recommendations were followed; this doesn't seem to have turned out too well.
- Vancouver is effectively doing away with single family only zoning, allowing up to six units per lot in those neighbourhoods. A step in the right direction perhaps?
- When an airline gives the federal opposition leader the mic, one has to say that creates the impression of bias on their part.
- Kamsack (population 1,898) may be a small town in Saskatchewan, but Romana Didulo is a bridge too far even for them.

- The evacuation order for Hay River will be lifted tomorrow morning.
