This new normal of near-constant wildfire smoke annoys me as much as the next person. But it serves as a reminder that we share one fragile atmosphere that we’re collectively screwing up. Fruitless to waste all this energy pointing fingers like children when we should be joining hands to fix this. It’s like nature’s warning signal.

Whether it be wildfire smoke, a global pandemic, or heat waves, nature know no geopolitical borders. So maybe instead of squabbling over whose smoke is whose, we could acknowledge that we’re all in this smoldering mess together. We only have one planet to live on, and we only have one atmosphere to breathe from.

(just food for thought)

Is this even true ? Is there anyone blaming Canada for this ?

The New York Post had a huge “Blame Canada” headline on June 8th, so… Yep, very literally.

Jesus Christ, I thought that was a beaverton article.

That’s the New York Post though. They’re just joke news for incel red hatters.

They still have a readership, unfortunately.

I was wondering the same, then I remembered all those shity headlines, post about vax, pizzas, Facebook comments about 5G or Covid and now I’m certain some peoples are blaming Canada for setting the winds to the US.

That’s right! I guess I meant serious organization like an elected official or something like that.
