Odd that you seem to be unaware that almost half a million Albertans JUST signed a petition to stay in Canada. It was big news. Also big news is that the AB premier is the first ever to face recall. We are using every resource open to us to turn the tide. You are not being helpful here.

Merry Christmas Oldman!

Hey Beeps: the best of the season to you! Merry merry and all That. Thanks so much for your humour, activism, intelligence, and for just being out there. Makes me feel a whole lot better. Enjoy the cold weather and warm blankets! XOXOX 🎄🎄🎄

Xmas vacay nap time.

Puppy report, day 4: going splendidly! (Except for the cat: she hates everyone right now)

Getting close...

It’s been almost 10 yrs since I’ve had a puppy. Puppies are A LOT.

Local woman wakes up, sends all the Alberta and Saskatchewan separation enthusiasts to a pocket universe so they can truly create something new and independent for themselves and leave the rest of us out of it, makes oatmeal.

Harry discovered the window bench and no longer needs any of us.

I think the best thing about this Christmas season is how affordable everything is now that there's no carbon tax on gasoline just like the Conservatives promised would happen.

Great letter from Emeritus Jim Tagg. I return to these sage words often. “Many willing to mitigate the homeless situation” lethbridgeherald.com/commentary/l...

We got our dog a maxi-me!!

PUPPY WILL BE HERE IN 33 MINUTES!!!

Man. Those UCP sure do love freeze peach, so long as it’s racist and bigoted. Government posting support for boycotts of small businesses just for speaking out against them sure seems to dance right up to the line of curtailing freedom of expression, no? I’m no legalizer, though.

A citizen e-petition has been launched in the House of Commons calling on the Federal Government to its disallowance power to override Alberta and Saskatchewan’s use of the notwithstanding clause to violate the human rights of trans Canadians. Sign here: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

Heartbreakingly, despite our best efforts, today the Government of Alberta was able to bring an end to the injunction against Bill 26 on the basis of its use of the notwithstanding clause. This is a cruel and dangerous move by a government that will harm vulnerable young people.

Talk about inflation! youtu.be/wkXBF64jvWE?...

Best thread ever

@ydbelanger.bsky.social, @trashcanman.bsky.social, @evoneuro.bsky.social, @glendaaus.bsky.social, @drjaydrno.bsky.social Important. Please pass on to your network! Thanks!

Um #Alberta: please read this. Apparently the UCP are pushing the rurals to fill this out. Please let them know that the interim report of the Electoral Boundaries Commission is GOOD. Don’t gerrymander!!

I try to recuse myself from online discussions regarding trans individuals because I am not trans. Also because I’m a special kind of ally that cannot be diplomatic or reasonable in the face of transphobia. When it comes to women’s and girls’ sports, however, I WAS an athlete, so here’s a thread…1/

The world's largest carbon capture and storage complex planned for northern Alberta could use most of the surplus water in the giant Cold Lake-Beaver River basin, potentially forcing water rationing in the province. Read @nationalobserver.com’s exclusive: www.nationalobserver.com/2025/12/18/a...

A three word love story: An adopted dog.

Danielle Smith is literally plagiarizing the worst president in history.

Among the list of demands from Trump (to extend CUSMA) is resolving a dispute on the Montana/Alberta power line.

He’s coming on FRIDAY!! Are y’all ready to forget about politics and see some PUPPY PICS?!?

“This view is held by a vast majority of Albertans and Canadians”?!?! Is that right, Danielle? I believe the VAST MAJORITY of Albertans and Canadians would very much like you to go to your vacation home in Panama and never, ever come back…like a bad smell. I hate this person. HATE. HER.

And the hits just keep on comin', in Alberta (three ski hills on public lands proposed for private, year-round "parks": action.cpaws.org/page/email?m...

Asshole. He doesn't speak for the people of this province.

More than 600 pages of records show Alberta officials delayed a coal mine pollution study — and seemingly stopped the lead scientist from speaking publicly thenarwhal.ca/alberta-stal... #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Finally, a workable plan.

Sundays are for baking.

Important thread…

Dear #canpoli

Bill 14 may have abolished the constitutional screening test & the opportunity of Elections Alberta to refer a case to the courts, but that won't stop a First Nation raising the duty to consult question of its own motion as part of an appropriately framed application. fin

He’s thinking about moving in, this guy.

Please, everyone outside of Alberta, read THIS:

And #Alberta: there are MORE progressives here than there are socially conservative separatists. That’s why the legislation was rammed though. Remember that, and get involved to stop this mismanagement any way you can (it doesn’t just have to be in the political sphere).

As a judge shot down Alberta separatists’ referendum bid, Danielle Smith gov raced to give them a second chance. Now they’re confident Albertans will vote on leaving Canada this fall, after UCP’s legislative boost. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... by me

I’m not going

Any friends who are social workers out there? I have a question about elders…

For researchers thinking about conferences next year, Canada is hosting plenty across many research disciplines. We will not ask for your social media history for the past 5 years or a DNA sample and do not have ICE agents.

I know y’all have seen this. I have watched this leg session with murderous rage in my heart for so many of the UCP MLAs (Chugabeer the least among them). Thanks, Lisa, for making me laugh while I sharpened my knives. It’s been a tough go.

Well, it has finally happened. I’ve been forced to turn up the preferred text size on my laptop. I now have a LARGE PRINT Mac.

Going to look at adoptable pups tomorrow! Going to look at adoptable pups tomorrow! EEE! EEE! EEE! Current older dog's mood:

This last week the UCP in Alberta adopted, in short order, amendments to its own much vaunted Citizen Initiative Act. Those amendments took effect today with royal assent. Unless I am missing something this also kills Corb Lund's "no coal" petition unless he re-files. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

BRUSSELS (AP) — The European Union is expected on Friday to lock up Russia’s assets held in Europe until it gives up its war in Ukraine and compensates its neighbor for the heavy damage that it has inflicted for almost four years.
