A U.S. policy think tank is advocating a transformative approach to climate finance for vulnerable countries: cancel national debts and redirect the repayment funds to climate adaptation and resilience projects. It would not only alleviate debt distress, but also abate the “monumental” gap in adaptation funding, the Brookings researchers say. So far, the lion’s share of climate finance has been granted with the expectation that it will generate revenue, so 90% of it goes to activities that mitigate emissions, like renewable power projects. “Suffice it to say, as long as profit-motive drives the majority of climate finance flows, adaptation finance will lag behind,” the researchers warn. The geopolitical goal would be encourage developing countries to align themselves with the U.S. rather than relying on China, the writers suggest.

Johnston is not the first Trudeau “friend” who has sacrificed or been sacrificed to preserve the prime minister’s reputation and vision of the future. Canada has lost many good men and women to Trudeau and his “vision.” It is time for Canadians to look realistically at ridding our country of his leadership. But under single-payer health care as in Canada, the customer is captive, the price is not known, and there is no competition.

FREDERICTON - New Brunswick’s premier called for calm on Saturday as the province undertakes a contentious review of a policy on sexual orientation in schools. We must treat each other with respect while we have these discussions.”At issue is a review of Policy 713, which the province’s Education Department introduced in 2020. It lays out standards for schools to ensure safe, welcoming and inclusive environments for LGBTQ students.

(AP) — Mississippi could have a Democratic primary for governor in August because a judge ruled Friday that the party improperly excluded a candidate from the ballot. Hickingbottom, who has described himself as a political operative, ran for governor as a Constitution Party candidate in 2019. The executive committee also excluded Gregory Wash from running for governor this year, after he ran a low-budget campaign for governor in the Democratic primary four years ago. The party’s decisions left Brandon Presley, a four-term public service commissioner, as the only Democratic candidate for governor. Attracting support from Black voters is an important part of winning a Democratic primary.

Without collecting all due assessments, the association cannot pay its bills, which harms all HOA members. The obligation to keep members current on assessments collection is a serious matter and should be taken seriously by both the HOA board and HOA homeowners. As I’m looking over homeowners’ delinquency information, I’m concerned that several incumbent board members are delinquent. “Delinquent” is defined by Civil Code Section 5650(b) as not paid 15 days after an assessment becomes due. Civil Code Section 5103(d)(3) states that board eligibility requirements must also be applied to the seated directors, which means that if the election rules bar delinquent candidates then directors must also not be delinquent.
