[00:03:01] Speaker B: City of Vancouver the council residential side streets City of Vancouver Speed limit 30 km Basically dividing line speed message post warnings speed 50 km per hour. [00:03:40] Speaker A: Default. [00:03:40] Speaker B: Is 50 default is 50 City of. [00:03:42] Speaker A: Vancouver. [00:03:48] Speaker B: Side streets Basically residential streets. So that road accidents. [00:04:23] Speaker A: 85% yeah the chance has surviving the so data set in a court kilometer per hour Permanently residential streets added whole benefits the streets will become quieter plus air quality so added benefits Vancouver Police Department limited resources traffic as it is Residential areas. [00:05:42] Speaker B: Residential streets yes, there are certain streets and even Kujari Elaki zones City of Vancouver slow zones oh basically overspeed. [00:06:09] Speaker A: Already measures speed bumps. [00:07:03] Speaker B: Not just in Vancouver overall traffic speed compliance enforcement Otherwise there was other strictness on the yeah with the flow of the traffic police. [00:07:43] Speaker A: Officers that's okay. Permanently speeds 30 kilometer per hour school zones throughout the day. [00:08:09] Speaker B: Police services, patrol. [00:08:12] Speaker A: Services. [00:08:17] Speaker B: Elon Musk political party the America Party WhatsApp messages they should install left turn signals which will help reduce accidents Left turn even states, provinces US States to see red light Canada provinces. [00:09:04] Speaker A: Do you prefer a roundabout or traffic lights? [00:09:08] Speaker B: Yeah, that's a good question Vasari. I would rather prefer traffic lights Same here. If you've got a bigger vehicle and even even a medium sized SUV O to see There is no way Kya to see Karmaji roundabouts It's very difficult. [00:09:33] Speaker A: Plus a reality A KV AK is Satna Saturn drivers new Patani roundabout. [00:09:43] Speaker B: European they prefer roundabouts to see how comfortable are you around that Special Feature India vs England Test match Think performance supported by Muhammad Siraj and Akash deep inclusion unbelievable. [00:10:47] Speaker A: Yeah batting definitely silence unchested waters so it's too new to say anything so one of the performance as a rule of course batting performance monumental. [00:11:04] Speaker B: Most runs by an Indian better in a single test match. Yeah so Sunil Gavaskar record I think overall record most runs in a single test match by an Indian batsman world Record I think Graham Gupta when there was one match I think in the 90s so that's like 456 in a single match. [00:11:35] Speaker A: And I think he's the first batter to score a 250 and 150 in the same match. [00:11:38] Speaker B: In the same match. Yes of course Media interviews Alberta the premier Daniel Smith pipeline energy infrastructure City of Vancouver per hour their speed zone residential streets slow zone okay Trump name Liberation day whichever pancake flip Karandi. [00:13:00] Speaker A: That'S. [00:13:00] Speaker B: Okay non political day environment Kijarahun energy infrastructure build Karna Jinu Tezinal develop Karandevaste Federal Sarkar Valo Bill C5 Paskitagya Taki National Interest Valley Jiliki projects pipeline Alberta West Coast Carbon capture network national building strategy. [00:14:19] Speaker A: Yeah so did he pipeline Daniel Smith Trans Mountain pipeline the expansion. [00:14:36] Speaker B: So. [00:14:37] Speaker A: Already pipeline but still in this context so Daniel Smith core pipeline and this one being for heavy oil for bitumen Alberta north Coast pipeline capacity 1 million barrels per day Premier Daniels private company a pipeline federal tanker ban Hair exactly so in this context we'll cross that bridge when we get there so a Iskar Kevi with federal Sarkar Kdpasipoktegi Calgary Stampede and it's very very likely Highly highly likely Highly highly likely Definitely top down approach Naya but very very likely so most likely. [00:17:03] Speaker B: Economic opportunity which are both the economic opportunity like you already mentioned so Mark Arni legislation already passed e.g. natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson private sector. [00:18:23] Speaker A: So important line we are not going to have a project that gets oil to the Tidewater and and it stays. [00:18:32] Speaker B: There yeah. [00:18:45] Speaker A: Highly highly likely it creates a lot of flexibility for nation building projects and when I say projects there is an S at the end multiple projects so basically. [00:19:19] Speaker B: Private sector. [00:19:27] Speaker A: So the. [00:19:28] Speaker B: Tanker ban has to go first before a project can come forward yeah okay project so carbon capture network Pathways Alliance Canada oil producers Suncor Synovus project. [00:20:02] Speaker A: Facilities. [00:20:10] Speaker B: Underground carbon storage so benefit o highly carbonized processing of the Karnipandi carbon emissions pipeline processing pollution decarbonize marketability Pathways alliance the carbon capture project proposed Gita Sade project Sally List nation building project. [00:21:14] Speaker A: Most likely he can give you proponent proponent will cross that bridge when we get there. [00:21:38] Speaker B: Indigenous projects clean growth contribute self sufficiency is one aspect Global energy superpower. [00:22:02] Speaker A: Yeah conventional and renewable energy both yeah.

[00:24:54] Speaker B: Media interviews. [00:24:58] Speaker A: Howard Latin yeah UK Steel JD Tariff Lagna that's yet to be decided it's way more complex so Donald Trump anti American policies There will be no exceptions to this. [00:26:58] Speaker B: Policy see breaks the founding members of course Brazil, Russia, India China the South Africa so South Africa joined a year. [00:27:08] Speaker A: Later so Brazil, Russia, India and China and that was 2008. [00:27:17] Speaker B: South Africa South Africa joined the fold. [00:27:31] Speaker A: So last year. [00:27:32] Speaker B: Joining members Saudi Arabia Egypt Ethiopia Indonesia Iran UAE EV breaks the full member he breaks the trade currency basket. [00:28:09] Speaker A: Dollar. [00:28:27] Speaker B: Non G7 members BRICKS Alliance Jhati Arkitaga Jedaki Amrika Vastagda from a dominance point. [00:28:35] Speaker A: Of view so Jimmy Pachmi Global south. [00:28:43] Speaker B: Bricks so bricks. [00:28:48] Speaker A: Ironically so expansion China is the founding member one of the most important members of brics yes BRICS Indonesia Iran of economic growth trajectory India, China, Brazil, Russia they were still significant economies we cannot replace D7 actually for obvious reasons virtually is meeting Prime Minister so BRICS on top of that. [00:30:25] Speaker B: So. [00:30:26] Speaker A: Iran is a member Russia so ideology wise Donald Trump alone it's a threat to the global economy unilaterally sanctions it's totally anti West Global south so diagrammatically we they are oppositioned very antipodal positions.
