Predictable, but well done.

I like the sentiment but this looks very shifty.

Any movement on the talk of building better liquid gas infrastructure to import from the US?

Perhaps, with the continent already in flames due to Global warming, you should use less fossil fuels all together?

As a mid term solution sure. Easier said than done in the short term.
With domestic heating it's particularly tough as there isn't a widely accepted affordablealternative

Lawyer friends, how can I check if this is legit? My google skills are failing me.

All I have to go on is an address in Ontario and "Who is UHelpUkraine?
We are a registered non-profit organization (REG. #1000182616) "

I tried to find them on the list of registered charities - they are not there.  Maybe you will have better luck.

If they are just a non-profit, well then they could be like Me to We.

Nice slip of the tongue/lazy translator "Just like grand grandfathers and grandfathers he fought with fascism" instead to fighting (against) fascism.

Currently looks like Gazprom will continue streaming gas via Nordstream 1 tomorrow. 

[celedhring]

Yep, the spice is flowing again. For now.

Again, I find the fact that they never follow on their energy threats something that should encourage us to decouple, not discourage.

[Sheilbh]

Although from the Guardian's Berlin reporter:

Gazprom says it will resume delivery of gas through Nord Stream 1 at 30% capacity from tomorrow. Models by @kielinstitute foresee Germany scraping through the winter without shortages at 40%. Honi soit qui mal y pense...

Which seems enough to highlight vulnerability and get domestic political effects, but not enough to force a serious transition - plus obviously signalling that Putin can go further.

[Sheilbh]

Reports that Russia and Ukraine have reached some sort of deal on grain shipment - facilitated by Turkey. Which seems like good news.

Based on Russian form they'll blow up the grain shipments in transit. But we'll see.
