Sami dwelling
Traditional Sami dwelling made of turf with a few amenities: a window and, most importantly, solar panels. While most of these huts are now used as summer kitchens for smoking fish or baking bread, here an old herder prefers to live in his hut in summer rather than in a more modern house.

Nature Alberta does a great job of educating and standing up for nature in Alberta.

Crunch!
This male house finch is caught mid-meal, working intently on a seed. Fragments of the shell scatter in the air, frozen in motion—a quiet explosion of effort and instinct. It’s a fleeting moment, suspended in time.

The latest bit of craziness that is going under the radar, but we shouldn't let it:
- Background: Canadian Nuclear Laboratories as part of Atomic Energy of Canada used to be a Crown asset ; after $18 billion of public funds it was privatized by Harper for $17 million. Sold to who? good old SNC Lavelin!
- SNC Lavelin recently renamed itself to Atkins Realis, I can't imagine why./s
- Now they are selling Canadian Nuclear Laboratories to a US consortium, along with a huge public 20 year $24 billion contract.
- The US consortium operates nuclear weapons facilities
- WTF?! WTF?! WTF?!
- Elbows Up?
-see petition below - there's more - we haven't discussed the nuclear waste yet...guess where it is going ...not with the money!

in reply to 404 Media • • •Somewhere around 10-15 years ago I found an article based on FBI information that showed that left wing violence had peaked in the early 1970s and tapered off quite quickly through the '70s/'80s.
Even at that time, they found the dominant political violence was from right wing groups, which had been escalating since the early 1980s.
I don't think anyone paying attention would be surprised by this.
