“Experts believe that Trump was talking about the Columbia river…”. No, that’s not what he was talking about. He’s a weird, demented, old man. He literally believes, there is a giant faucet floating somewhere over Canada.
I swear some poor bastard has to explain shit to this moron and has to dumb it down. I’m sure they used a metaphor to simplify and all that stuck was B.C. is like a faucet, it flows south. He then gets in front of the camera and confidently spews the mangled idea like a game of telephone.
“I will build a faucet and BC will pay for it”
haha no thanks
this parasitic behavior is unwelcome heremake it fair for BC citizens and then we’ll see
make it fair for BC citizens
Trump doesn’t know the meaning of the word “fair”.
“We have to go in and take the
oilwater.”This isn’t gonna mix well with the BC public.
Nestle will fight him
Canada’s military holds a world record.
Let’s calmly talk about America not stealing water.
What world record is that? :o cos I thought America famously had a massively bloated military budget, to the detriment of the rest of that country
We may have a different record on a moving objective at a similarly bonkers range.
Antweiler added that there is a lot that California can and should do to manage their water sources, including the use of water in agriculture.
One suggestion I would make to California and BC is to limit animal agriculture water use as 1kg of beef uses 15,415 litres of water to produce.
This is another of those “things that I would like but are pretty unrealistic.” If the goal is to cut down on beef, the price would either go up drastically or we’d put farmers into something less lucrative and just import our beef.
Regardless, the public, of whom many if not most eat beef, would be furious. I struggle to see a government that could pass this and last an election without having this overturned by the next government rather quickly.
That being said, it’d be nice. But nice in the same way that everyone being vegetarian and not wearing sweatshop clothes would be nice.
I hate your comment but love your source. There’s no perspective when you say 1 kg of beef uses 15415 L of water to produce. Is that a lot? Is that a little?
Your source puts that into perspective - it’s a lot. But I wish they’d put it into calories/L of water. I don’t eat based on kg of food. I eat based on kcal and nutrition
2900 calories
A regular bath is 150L of water, you need enough water to fill 100 baths to produce 1kg of beef
Chicken is at just over a quarter in water needs while tofu is at a sixth of beef in water needs. 1650 calories for chicken, 830 calories for tofu, so chicken has the best water/calories ratio…
And chicken has higher protein content, I believe.
I guess cows should be Kobe or nothing…
About 25% for beef vs 20% for chicken, give or take
We got enough water shortages up here already.
Yeah BC, send us your water.💦 don’t be stingy!
Based on BC’s traditional water mismanagement and the rapid loss of glacial water due to global warming, pretty soon parts of BC are going to be running an annual water deficit. And that’s before we even get into wildfires.
California should shift to plant-based agriculture, install bidets to reduce water needed to grow trees, install water leak detectors along water pipelines, grow produce intended for the climate and implement more rain water collection systems as there are many efficiencies that could be made without resorting the need of water from other jurisdictions
For a state that’s completely bordered on one side by ocean, and has a decent amount of desert for solar you think we would be desalinating the s*** out of that ocean.
And revamp their antiquated water rights system.
I’ll just leave this here.
His son? What happened to the deputy PM?
I have the distinct feeling that this movie could have been produced in the US, which, let’s be fair, they would not really understand how a succession crisis would work in Canada (Also, we have another Trudeau in office, so it’s not entirely unrealistic for a son to take over). Or if it is a Canadian producer, they likely over-simplified the process by which a son could suddenly be elevated to the position of PM, which… yeah, a movie isn’t really gonna cover how difficult that would be.
If only there were a convenient link you could follow that gave you an opportunity to read about the film and, in particular, see where it was produced and who produced it…
🤔
Who cares?
Soon to be authoritarian leader of a heavily militarized state that wants your national resources? Who wouldn’t care?

Soon to be eh? I was unaware November already went by, Trump won the election, and is waiting for January to assume office.
What? That never happened?
Almost fooled me.
A lot of people around here are acting like Kamala has already won, and that is actually fucking disastrous
