No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The Alberta government recently passed shocking laws to let hunters shoot and kill caged deer and elk. This move was introduced through Bill 10, an omnibus “red-tape-reduction” bill. animaljustice.ca/blog/alberta... #Alberta #abpoli

What an opportunity!

In a letter to Prime Minister Mark Carney… Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation is calling for an urgent meeting to address the separatist threat in Alberta and its flagrant disregard for Treaties. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation (undoubtedly to the frustration of certain KC’s and separatist leaders)… Are making it clear that they can speak for themselves. A new fact sheet blows absolute holes in a LOT of the separatist lies. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

A possible 43% staff reduction at GAC, as Carney lops off his eyes to the world. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Thousands of workers cut from the federal public service, including scientists, researchers, and entire programs across environmental, wildlife, and health fields. This is a devastating blow to science and monitoring across Canada, and will have far-reaching impacts. www.ctvnews.ca/ottawa/artic...

@andrewknack.bsky.social Mayor Knack, please explain to me how are residents/delivery people supposed to get from the street to the sidewalk? The curb cut was buried by the plows but never cleared. 311 said this is not the city's responsibility but the city cleared adjacent driveways 🤷

Edmonton, you showed UP last night! They had to open seats on the balcony for us! My first ever @thebeaverton.com live show was an absolute blast and it was so lovely meeting you all after the show. In bitumen we pray, fuck Ottawa. 💙

Just putting this back into circulation. The US Ambassador, Hoekstra, isn't doing anything to facilitate positive conversation and healthy relationships betweenthe USA & Canada. He should leave, now. How is it that we haven't declared Hoekstra persona non grata, yet? www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

If I were a PM who believed we were at a global rupture moment, upending decades of international order, and requiring totally new relations with the world, I probably wouldn’t cut my foreign affairs staffing and budget by 15%

I ask again, @andrewknack.bsky.social, @michaeljanz.bsky.social, why is the City of Edmonton still using X?

Touching. #yegbike

Permafrost (frozen ground) is the backbone of northern ecosystems. Watch this field video for a visual demonstration of what happens when we lose that permafrost to thaw.

China may still be expanding their coal-fired power *capacity,* but their actual *use* of coal for electricity continues to decline, as renewable power generation skyrockets. Please kill the "BUT CHINA!!" talking point for your gullible, anti-renewable friends. #cdnpoli #ableg #uspoli

I’ve watched this 85 times solely to watch her take that one guy out at the knees

Scientists sounded the alarm on the dire consequences of continued inaction on climate change Warn that we could be heading for "unprecedented societal and ecological collapse" www.newscientist.com/article/2506...

This is nuts.

I am desperately sad for my province and every trans child and their families who love and support them. I am also very angry and more determined than ever to get rid of this government as soon as possible. We have fallen so far from democratic norms and even common decency.

Many good and brilliant people with whom have worked over the last three decades are losing their jobs. 💔

tl;dr: Yes.

Did you know that Elf has a lot of Canadian connections? The Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver became the North Pole, a haunted hospital in Coquitlam was used for interior sets and even the famous Buddy burp was Canadian! This is the story of Elf and Canada! 🧵1/10

There seem to be 2 general opinions abt the MOU: AB conservatives: The MOU gives AB everything we wanted LPC supporters: MOU is great because Carney got pragmatic concessions from AB, but don't worry no pipeline will be built Anyone else: The MOU gives AB conservatives everything they wanted

Here are the Top 5 Dogs of the week!

Trudeau-era environment minister Steven Guilbeault has published a resignation letter detailing the reasons for his departure from Carney's cabinet. He directly cites today's MOU:

Say what you will about the Conservatives, but at least they would have stabbed you in the front.

This is a very concerning story. Cold Lake First Nation is living in 3rd world conditions. They have been completely frozen out by Mark Carney/Danielle Smith's plan to drive a 400 km pipeline carbon capture facility on their land. This won't end well Mark. www.nationalobserver.com/2025/11/26/n...

BC Premier @dave_Eby, BC Energy Minister @adriandix declined invitations to be interviewed about the lack of a business case for an AB to BC pipeline. Do you find that odd? I find that odd. Exploding the Business Case for an Alberta to BC pipeline open.substack.com/pub/markhamh...

Retweeting to watch later. I find, ironically, that it’s those who most vociferously proclaim their critical thinking skills who are most devoid of them.

Raise your hand if you knew that MLAs had the ability to pull voter records to use to smear people like this. Even we did not know this was possible.

Major projects, major problems: anger at Carney’s unclear plans is the real shared national interest, @drewanderson.bsky.social writes: thenarwhal.ca/alberta-pipe...

I just called the premier’s office to express my opposition to Bill 9 and the use of the notwithstanding clause. Wait time was about 5 minutes. PLEASE PLEASE consider calling with your feedback. All comments are being forwarded to the premier’s communications team. Let’s fill up those documents!
