Ronald Stein argues that transitioning to renewable energy is impractical as wind and solar power can only generate electricity and can't replace the diverse products and fuels derived from fossil fuels, which support modern civilization. He stresses that crude oil derivatives are vital for producing more than 6,000 everyday products and for powering various transportation modes crucial for global logistics. Stein advocates for continued use and more efficient consumption of fossil fuels until a viable, adequate substitute is found to maintain global living standards and infrastructure.

Independent journalist/photographer. A career challenging dogma re climate, feminism, Canada's legal system. Grew up working class (dad: auto mechanic, mom: never finished high school). Never been politically correct, never been a member of the media inner circle.

Donna Laframboise discusses her latest book, 'Thank You Truckers Canada's Heroes,' which chronicles the 2022 trucker convoy in Ottawa against COVID-19 mandates, highlighting the misrepresentation by mainstream media and the heartwarming solidarity among ordinary Canadians. She explains the hardships faced by the truckers, the public's overwhelming support, and the subsequent mistreatment by the government, including the freezing of bank accounts and severe penalties for non-violent protesters. Additionally, Laframboise provides insights into her previous investigative work on the IPCC's climate change reports and raises concerns about the current media landscape and political dynamics in Canada.
