Yes, any Alberta flags today get the side-eye. But ever since the Covid Convoy, I don't trust folks with Canadian flags either. 😒

Canada Day tomorrow, and now this to really ruin the week for Alberta separatists. reddeeradvocate.com/2026/06/30/p...

NEW: A proposed class action lawsuit has been filed over Alberta's voter list data breach. It names as possible defendants the Alberta government, the Chief Electoral Officer, The Centurion Project, the Republican Party and David Parker.

The Supreme Court today addressed one of the most pressing threats to the nation today: banning this high school sophomore from playing school sports with her friends 🫡🫠🙃

So he's gonna advocate for all people with depression to get four months off for rehabilitation, right? And he's gonna tell RFK jr to fuck off with his quest to limit the medication that Kean is very clearly taking to be functional?

Also it's Gen X and Boomers that are being radicalized online. So your solution is to take social media from kids. That's like focusing your arson prevention program at the swimming pool.

There is no Edmonton. Only Zuul.

A month of record breaking rainfall followed by wildfire smoke but it’s fine, there are too many mosquitoes to go outside anyway.

Going to a music concert? Please listen to the advice of Chris Traeger: Stop. Pooping.

After the floods come the fires. *sigh* Just another summer in climate catastrophe.

Yeah I really do not think people should be able to get millions of dollars if a fire starts

In terms of men's football in Canada, there is now a before and an after, and that dividing line was found in the calm, focused excellence of Stephen Eustáquio in the 92nd minute of extra time, which granted Canada passage to the round of 16 at a World Cup www.thestar.com/sports/socce...

Umm... how frequently does Noah Kahan think 29-year-olds are pooping their pants. I need the math on this.

Asylum seekers are routinely returned by Canadian authorities and placed into ICE custody within hours of their arrival in Canada.

We might as well go for the new record. ☔☔☔

Today is a good day to remember that authoritarianism is not inevitable, overthrowing fascists is possible, and good things can still happen. www.pbs.org/newshour/wor...

Steve Jobs predicted cities would be designed around this device, which was "as big a deal as the PC." Jeff Bezos called it "one of the most famous and anticipated product introductions of all time." don't let our tech lords fool you into believing they can predict the future.

my husband is doing fantasy baseball for the first time. he does not follow baseball. his team is run entirely by our 10yo neighbor, who gets a split of his winnings if she helps my husband defeat the rest of the league. they’re in 1st place! but now, a problem: today she left for sleepaway camp

Reports of Whyte Ave's death continue to be greatly exaggerated. Folks were lining up *last night* for Wildrose Vintage's 5th anniversary sale. And the street was busy as heck in the rain today.

Mamdani promised and is immediately delivering on policies the centrists sneered at us for even mentioning for 40 years. They're losing their minds because he's showing they've been lying all along about what is possible; he is proving that good government comes from the (not even that far) left

Gone teleportin'

Just like MAGA, QAnon, and Brexit, research proves that Alberta separatists are getting their brains cooked by right wing news, yearning for a "better" past that did not exist, and conspiracies around vaccines and "global organizations".

Im going to watch every trial when this is over.

fill the reflecting pool with Nickelodeon Slime

The research finds that best predictors for Alberta separatism are: - consumption of right-wing news - yearning for a better past - support for anti-establishment views - belief in conspiratorial thinking on issues like vaccines and global organizations

This is why centrists lose when it matters. Folks on the right will vote for Trump, Brexit, and against their own interests and safety, just to own the libs. But die-hard centrists cannot truly abide anything that drifts from a lot of the same (capitalist, nationalist) themes to build collectively.

Honey is great, but have we really tasted every kind of slime that bugs make? We could be missing out on something.

How much of the popularity of newsletters stems from the fact that you open them in your inbox and thus they can't have a million popup ads and autoplaying videos covering up all the text

Absolutely devastating. Venezuela hit by the strongest earthquake in more than 100 years. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/06...

air conditioning is good and right and a just climate future has zero emissions and also air conditioning and we should build a better world where people don’t die in heat waves

Musk says not a single person has died due to him axing USAID. Sadly, part of my job involves tracking aid spending. So here’s a thread with just some of the people who lost their lives because of USAID cuts

"Much worse than any of us expected. This tour is like an overview of all of the main institutions and actors directly involved in the apartheid control of the Palestinian people as a whole in so many ways."

SCOOP: I obtained the itinerary and other documents relating to Edmonton police Chief Warren Driechel’s February 2026 Israel trip. @mbueckert.bsky.social of @cjpme.org says it’s “much worse than any of us expected.” open.substack.com/pub/theorcha...

also not lost on me that as democratic socialists are winning some elections, a new red scare targeting anarchists, antifascists, and their allies is digging in hard, and today handed down 30, 50, and 100 year prison sentences to activists and organizers

If you look really closely at the graph, you can see why the premier wants us all to focus on noise bylaws for Stampede.

When reality surpasses fiction! Top: fictional forecast for August 2050, broadcast by French TV in 2014 to warn about the consequences of global warming. Bottom: Real French forecast for yesterday, June 22, 2026.

I guess he liked what he saw on McDavid's phone.

I just want to add, since this is breaking containment, that this can't be made right. these people, each one a whole universe, are gone. there can only be justice for the perpetrators; public remorse & restitution; & reform to ensure future aid systems are more just and less prone to imperial whims

The agenda of far-right groups is succeeding. "We have been the first domino, the group that has been maligned and stigmatized, as a means of rolling back equality.” These attacks on trans rights are about trans folks, and they’re also about everybody else. open.substack.com/pub/rachelgi...

“That’s all anybody can do right now. Live. Hold out. Survive. I don’t know whether good times are coming back again. But I know that won’t matter if we don’t survive these times.” - OCTAVIA BUTLER, born on this day in 1947 in Pasadena, California

In case you missed it this morning: It's been the wettest June in over a century in Edmonton & we may claim "wettest on record" by the end of the month. www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art... #yegwx

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.

Vaccines save lives. This is the FIRST time that ZERO cervical-cancer deaths have been recorded for this age group, and it’s thanks to the introduction of a vaccine against the human papillomavirus (HPV). Yes, you read that correctly. ZERO.
