A federal carbon pollution pricing system was implemented in our province under the federal Greenhouse Gas Pollution Pricing Act. The goal of the act is to tax all industrial plants that play a significant role in preserving the heat in the atmosphere. The act was first applied in January 2019 to large industrial plants that emit more than 50,000 tons of carbon dioxide a year. Smaller industrial plants that emit 10,000 tones to 50,000 tons of carbon dioxide a year had the option to choose whether they want to pay taxes based on the degree of pollution they emit. Provinces such as British Columbia, Alberta, and Quebec that have applied federal carbon pollution pricing system earlier than Ontario have recorded the fastest economic growth in 2017. Drawing on past experience from three Canadian provinces, it is not unrealistic to expect that Ontario could accomplish similar success.

“Where’s the meat?” A question I’m often asked by my relatives and Serbian friends when I make a vegan dish or tell them that I mostly eat a vegetarian diet. Some say it in a mocking sort of way, some question out of curiosity, while others express worry about my health (and I get the impression they’re concerned about my sanity too!).

Many of us are taking shifts working at the local COVID-19 drive-through screening clinic. Everyone we see has symptoms. Last week, I think most of it was not COVID-19 but these past few days I believe we are seeing more people with COVID-19. We can only test a minority of people who come because our supplies are limited. We stress self-isolation with everyone.
I have sent a few people to the Emergency Department but I do not think they were ill enough to be admitted.
