CSEE has submitted a formal response letter to the Government of Canada's Getting Major Projects Built in Canada - Discussion Paper to voice our concerns about the proposed changes to weaken Canada's environmental legislation and biodiversity obligations: csee-scee.ca/wp-content/u....

We cannot accept this framing. It's not "economy vs green" - it's that we are allowing developers to dump old, outdated technology into their new builds
Concerningly: Nearly half of H5N1 data from 🇺🇸 lacks information about when & where the sample was collected! For ~3000 virus genomes submitted in 2025, there is no state information and no day (only year) of collection (up a lot from 2024) 😩. This makes tracking transmission very challenging.

Why we’re concerned about “Getting Major Projects Built in Canada” 👀 and its impact on nature and a healthy environment. Have your voice heard - read the govt’t proposal www.canada.ca/en/one-canad... and email feedback to [email protected] by June 7, 2026 🙏@baumlab.bsky.social
Worried about selling our (environmental) soul? Me too. Please read and comment on the proposal to fast track major projects in 🇨🇦 despite harms to our air, water, lands and species. www.nationalobserver.com/2026/06/09/o...
Good news: The median delay between sample collection and posting to GISAID dropped from 474 days in 2024 to 59 days in 2025 😀. Median delays dropped ten-fold for both 🇳🇴 and 🇫🇷 😀😀! But there remains great variation. 🇨🇦 improved but still has a median delay over a year (469 days in 2025).
