Hi @gregmcleanyyc.bsky.social, it's several weeks before Calgary Pride, but will you denounce the behaviour of your CPC colleague, speak about your plans to attend Pride (as you have done in the past), and explain why your party leader can't seem to support queer Canadians but wants their votes?

A mosquito explosion has occurred in Alberta. Gave a lot of blood to their cause on tonight’s gravel party. Flying the colors of my second team. 😎

We thought we were done with the rain…until we turned around. Torrential! Last 5km were epic. Haven’t been that drenched in a while. #gravel #bikeyyc #BowCycleClub

Tonight’s movie, one of my favorites.

#ForeverCanadian will win the referendum despite the premier’s and foreign interference, despite foreign cash backing separatism, and despite Alberta Government constantly gerrymandering laws to favor separatists. Why? Because we will spare no effort fighting for Canada🇨🇦 #ableg

viktor orban gonna lose so bad he has to run for a seat in alberta

#ForeverCanadian mobilizing in our province. They are sp reading the word about the need to step up against separatism. #RedDeer is garnering support for unity. Thank you team lead, Ayaz, for your leadership. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

This should be worth another floor crossing or two.

Noooo!!!! WVA has to be the unluckiest rider in the pro peloton. Hope he’s ok. #cyclocross #visma

Listen, let's not rule out that drawing Jamil Jivani's name in Secret Santa might have been what actually prompted the floor crossing.
