I also look at their record of creating Just Transitions by examining the transition away from coal in Hanna, Alberta. Spoiler alert &#8211; it isn&#8217;t pretty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also included are some remarks I made to the House of Commons on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parl.ca\/LegisInfo\/en\/bill\/44-1\/c-27\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bill C-27 <em>Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022<\/em><\/a>. This act is supposed to protect our digital privacy &#8211; which is a laudable goal &#8211; but this bill just doesn&#8217;t cover the bases sufficiently, and will hold Joe&#8217;s Garage to the same regulatory and bureaucratic standards as the Royal Bank. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link
