Brookfield subsidiary Evolugen has announced that commercial operations have begun at its Spring Coulee Solar Project, the company’s first utility-scale solar facility in Alberta.

The 42 MW solar farm, located northeast of Cardston, is expected to generate up to 70 GWh annually. The company says the project was completed on time and within budget following groundbreaking last April.

Scotiabank will purchase electricity and associated environmental attributes from the project through the 15-year PPA announced in 2022.

“We are excited to see our first solar project in Southern Alberta come to fruition,” says Josée Guibord, CEO of Evolugen. “Spring Coulee Solar Project demonstrates our capacity to deliver high quality renewable energy solutions that benefit our partners, communities and the environment. We’re also proud that these benefits are inclusive of Indigenous communities, with approximately 15% of the Spring Coulee construction workforce being indigenous.”

PCL Solar acted as the prime contractor for the project.

Obviously, this isn’t a real human being, though there are tens of millions with this perspective, so let’s treat him as if he were an actual guy.

No one’s going to hate you, because everyone with a brain supports border control and law enforcement.

You are, however, running the risk of being regarded as a moron.  There are hundreds of points of domestic and international law, reason, and humanity that are being addressed every day along these lines.

Why don’t you go on keepin’ those doggies moving, and let the rest of us do our best to figure out how to treat immigrants legally and humanely?

The guy who sent me this writes Could not be any clearer than that.

Oh, it’s clear all right, but it’s not really true.  People who live in places like Northern Europe, New Zealand, Iceland, Costa Rico, etc. are generally quite affluent.
Now, if you aspire to be the world’s next trillionaire, on a planet where 1.5 billion people can’t a glass of clean water to drink, you’ll need to go to a place like Switzerland, where it’s easy to hide money from taxation.

Gun Laws

Published

We’ve all heard the adage, “If guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.”

It has a nice ring to it, but it really doesn’t hold water in the real world, where counties with strict gun laws, e.g., Japan, England, and Australia have very low rates of violent crime.

Note: these countries don’t have an NRA, a fabulously wealthy lobbying organization that controls their lawmaking apparatus.

Moreover, outside the United States, it’s very hard to find a place where a potentially mentally unstable person can go into a store and walk out with a weapon of war, capable of killing 50+ people each minute.
