hachyderm.io/@itamarst/1151815… itamarst@hachyderm.io - Occasional reminder that anyone with a Canadian ancestor can now apply to get a Canadian citizenship grant: reddit.com/r/Canadiancitizensh…
It can be a very distant ancestor! Really! "But my it's my great-great grandmother" yep that's OK you can apply anyway, some people have succeeded, worst case Canadian government says no.
This is a temporary measure until a new law passes: parl.ca/LegisInfo/en/bill/45-1…
And time is running out for grants with Parliament returning next week. Hopefully the new law will make many people with Canadian ancestors into citizens, but not as many as the grants will, and the law hasn't passed and may yet be amended to be worse.
You have to apply for the grant; if you don't apply, you won't get it.

Small electric trucks already cost-competitive with diesel without subsidies
A new report published by business consultancy Mov3ment has revealed that the total cost of ownership for light urban delivery trucks is already close to diesel, even without subsidies.Mov3ment, a Brisbane based business consultancy, last week published what it believes to be a “first-of-its-kind resource” to help Australian fleet operators, suppliers, and policymakers, navigate the electric truck market.
The Electric Truck Report – produced in partnership with charging company Jet Charge and non-profit A2EP – provides a comprehensive but easily digestible analysis of model availability, suitability, financial viability, and charging considerations.
An analysis of total cost of ownership (TCO) for six example truck applications – including urban delivery, supermarket home delivery and distribution, regional, and waste collection – is simplified by an easy-to-use viability matrix.
For example, and representing one of the key findings from the report, light duty trucks and vans used for urban delivery and supermarket home delivery have come down in price enough that they are beginning to be competitive with diesel alternatives.

mastodon.social/@mhoye/1151799… mhoye@mastodon.social - I get a chance to talk to a local club of mostly teens and young adults soon, so I get to introduce them to two of my favourite texts about organizations: the CIA's Simple Sabotage manual, and Issendai's classic "Creating a Sick System".
One of the great gifts we can give kids early in their careers is a language for recognizing when these things are being done to them, so they can see this class of things for what they are.

in reply to Joyce Donahue • • •I caught the sound byte of what he was saying as he was shot. He was going on about mass shootings not being a problem.
The irony is thick.
Also, fuck him. I hope he dies. I'm way past taking the high ground and hoping he'll take this moment as the impetus to change his ways or any other positive. I want him in the ground, along with the rest of the right-wing assholes.
