=== Make changes to land use bylaws, --make it impossible to be self sufficient. ===
* Ontario, NWT too. It's everywhere. The C40 cities, Global Covenant of Mayors (WEF municipal level group), among other groups are making changes to land use bylaws to make it impossible to be self sufficient. It's the push to get people into the smart cities/give govt control. https://x.com/DeaMille17/status/1661030683752665089?s=20

** Guilbeault <u>refuses to declare his support of nuclear</u> energy... Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says “it’s not up to the government to decide” which sources of energy will reduce the country’s greenhouse-gas emissions to net zero by 2050. Nor would he say explicitly whether he supports nuclear energy, which he’d opposed in his work before entering politics in 2019. As for “which forms of energy […]. Published Nov 5, 2021 at 4:13pm

Wales experiment
* 20mph: Wales first <u>UK nation to drop speed limit from 30mph</u> 17 September https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-66774379
** ''"a Welsh government-commissioned <u>consultation found more were against the speed limit than in support of it.</u> One of the Labour-led government's own documents said <u>longer journeys could cause a "substantial" economic disadvantage."</u>''
** ''The Welsh Conservatives said they were <u>in favo</u>ur of a 20mph limit <u>outside schools, hospitals</u> and care homes - but called <u>the blanket rollout "disastrous, frankly ludicrous</u> and a war on motorists".''
** Wales has <u>become the first country in the UK to reduce speed limits in built-up areas</u> from 30mph to 20mph in Wales from Sunday. Welsh ministers said a 20mph (32km/h) limit would reduce deaths and noise and <u>encourage people to walk or cycle</u> but it has <u>caused controversy</u> with some drivers.
* "One road in Wales n<u>ow has eight speed limit changes in less than two miles</u> following the switch to 20mph." <u>Making driving an unpleasant experie</u>nce is <u>a key strategy of the war</u> on motorists, with drivers bombarded with signage and fearful of big fines. https://x.com/RichardWellings/status/1729496787482812727?s=20
