Congratulations, comrades. You have defeated climate change. We know this because there have been no hurricanes so far in the Atlantic this hurricane season, for the first time in at least 60 years.
Gray News reported, “The Atlantic hurricane season is already one for the record books. It has been 103 days since the hurricane season started, and no hurricanes have formed in the Atlantic Ocean. That is a new record.
“Since the satellite era began in 1966, the latest date that the first hurricane formed in the Atlantic hurricane season was Sept. 11. Hurricane Gustav formed on Sept. 11, 2002, and Humberto formed on Sept. 11, 2013.”
It’s now been 106 days. This means the crisis has passed.
And there is more. No Atlantic hurricanes made landfall in the continental United States during the 2025 season—the first time that had happened since 2015.
A balanced budget at any level of government in Canada is wishful thinking on steroids these days. John Q. Voter’s capacity for critical thinking was numbed so effectively by the Covid spending spree that any political party would be wiped out at the polls if they implemented anything beyond token spending cuts.
The Parti Québécois is promising to balance the provincial budget by 2028-2029, a year earlier than the current Quebec government’s projections.
The PQ’s plan calls for a $6.6-billion reduction in government spending over five years.

Same dog, old trick: “…happy to write the case opening and find a prosecutor (or at least try)… No, I am not kidding.”
It speaks to the credibility problem of a mainstream media like Reuters when they can regurgitate an extraordinary claim about AI without once questioning how anyone could reach such a conclusion. It’s not that someone said AI could kill a lot of people, but rather that AI could literally kill all of us. And by what means?
Public alarm about the potential danger posed by AI is growing, after Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon said last week he had resigned, in part because the “people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade.”
Update, from Kate — this thread by Kevin Bass is a “rest of the story” must-read.
I have conducted an audit of Anthropic’s finances.
What I have found is so shocking that I am calling for a Congressional investigation.
Anthropic is not just seeking regulatory capture.
It has built a regulatory capture machine that cannot be turned off.
Structural financial incentives make it impossible for Anthropic — I call it the Anthropic Network — to turn off its own AI doom cycle.
It starts with METR.
Dario Amodei proposes “third-party evaluators” to assess the risk of Anthropic’s models.
He proposes METR for this purpose.
But METR is financially dependent on the Anthropic’s success — specifically, on the explosive growth of more than $7 billion dollars in Anthropic stock.

BREAKING: Bell to quadruple the size of Regina AI data centre, build its own 900 MW of power generation
They haven’t even finished building the first part of its Regina data centre, yet Bell Canada will now quadruple it in size. The announcement is the largest dollar value project in Saskatchewan history, and its power consumption will equal 42 per cent of Saskatchewan’s current power generation on a mid-September day.
The power consumption will be equal to four BHP Jensen potash mines, which is to be the largest in the world. The economic impact of $50 billion will be greater that the dollar value of Saskatchewan’s provincial budget for not one, but two years, with several billion more to spare.
This is mammoth.

An Ontario judge has ruled that “colonialism” was primarily to blame in a deadly drunk driving crash that saw a First Nations man kill a 12-year-old girl.
Article contentAccording to police reports, Darris Wilson’s Dodge Ram pickup truck was strewn with empty and partially consumed cans of beer when, in 2022, it slammed head-on into a vehicle carrying a mother and daughter en route to a sleepover.
Sierra Beverly, 12, was killed at the scene. Her mother, Naomi, suffered debilitating brain injuries for which she still requires 24-hour care. […]
Both the judge and the offender are members of Six Nations of the Grand River, Canada’s most populous First Nation.
“As part of Operation Heartland Surge, @SBAgov is announcing our largest fraud enforcement to date. As of today, we have suspended 870,000 SBA borrowers… tied to an estimated $39 billion of taxpayer money across 45 states and territories.”

A 41-year-old man who worked at a Saskatoon school is accused of sexually assaulting five children who were approximately 10 years old, according to police.
Officers received a report of the alleged sexual interference at St. Mary’s Wellness and Education Centre on May 26, the Saskatoon Police Service said in a news release. The offences are believed to have occurred between Sept. 1, 2025, and May 25, 2026.[…]
Court documents obtained by Global News indicate the accused is 41-year-old Hessam Aldin Sahrapour.
Sahrapour is facing five sexual assault charges and five assault charges. He is expected to appear in Saskatoon provincial court Wednesday.
Now Wab proposes to hand out tax breaks for “investments” in the Port of Churchill. Newsflash: a 7% cost reduction is unlikely to convince any investor to sink money into a port that’s locked in ice for a substantial portion of every year. It’s doubtful the green lobby will like the idea of ships bulldozing polar bears either.
The province say the new tax measure would apply to proposals for a new energy corridor and liquefied natural gas facilities, upgrades to the railway that runs to the port and icebreaking capacity to support year-round shipping.
What perpetrator of vehicular manslaughter wouldn’t be rehabilitated by spending more time “in nature”?
He considered how colonialization of the Six Nations band had led to a “major disconnection” to Wilson’s culture that, in turn, led him into “over-consumption of alcohol and unhealthy relationships.”
“This crystallized into the tragic events of Feb. 11, 2022,” said Edward.
The judge considered Wilson’s guilty plea and how he has spent his time since the crash in nature, focusing on cultural teachings and traditional practices, according to his mother.
A state-run euthanasia program governed by strict procedural safeguards.
It was Sunday, October 24, 2021, when 61-year-old Donna confessed to her family that she had been approved for Canada’s assisted-dying programme, officially known as Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD).
Her death was scheduled for the following Tuesday – expedited due to her having qualified for Canada’s streamlined ‘Track 1’ pathway, reserved for individuals whose natural death is reasonably foreseeable.
But Donna was not terminally ill, according to her daughters, who insist she was in the midst of a spiralling mental health crisis, triggered by a car accident and exacerbated by the isolation of the Covid-19 lockdown.
But most of all — it offers privacy.
Donna became the first known MAiD death in Canada to be investigated by police.
But the investigation grounded to a halt when the Fraser Health Authority refused to hand over the relevant records – the MAiD assessments themselves – to the police, citing privacy protections.

On verboten realities; on lessons in ‘radical’ theft; and on the progressive desperation to have an interesting child, one way or another:
Having, as she does, a degree in gender studies, Ms Myers is vexed by many things. Such as being asked, kindly, while pregnant, whether she was expecting a boy or a girl. This, we’re informed, is not “a simple question with a simple answer.”
Says she, “My partner Brent and I had found out our child’s sex chromosomes in the early stages of my pregnancy, and we had seen their genitals during the anatomy scan. But we didn’t think that information told us anything about our kid’s gender.”
No, of course. No clues there. No information at all, in fact. Just random noise.
Needless to say, Ms Myers’ website and Twitter feed are an endless churn of unconvincing smiles and rather desperate progressive signalling. We learn, for instance, that “Knowing the sex of a baby… does not tell us anything about the child’s… attitudes toward climate change.”
All this and more.
