High school student gets referred for a spanking by moderator, has mic cut off at Alberta Next meeting. Huge social media action on this. Kid painted as a crazed activist. What about the arrogant moderator? Column. calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu... #ableg #abpoli #abed #cdnpoli #yyc #yeg

She sat there when McAllister said it. She sat there when the student’s mic was turned off, and when McAllister basically suggested the student should’ve been beat more as a child. The Premier of Alberta sat there and did nothing. If that it’s not tacit approval, what is? #ableg

Imagine claiming the Alberta Next Panel is about ensuring respect from Ottawa and ensuring all voices are heard, and then you yell at a young Albertan publicly that he needs to be spanked for asking a fair question and expressing an opinion. Absolute peak hypocrisy.

Please call it the Darren Markland Bike Park. How can we get this happening? Share please? Or make your own post? Can anyone get this in front of the right people? dailyhive.com/edmonton/new...

This UCP government treats public educators like absolute shit, every chance they get. “Hey - help us ban books by creating a digital library of every book in your classroom. And do that on your own time, without pay. By the way, don’t even thing about striking. We’ll lock your asses out.” #ableg

Dystopian novels axed: Handmaid's Tale, Brave New World... heaps of Margaret Laurence, a class staple in my youth... And a libertarian like Danielle Smith would be intrigued to see Ayn Rand's Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged on the banned books list.

27 years ago, two years after the introduction of effective HIV treatment, the Bay Area Reporter, San Francisco’s lesbian and gay community newspaper, ran ‘No Obits’ as its headline. It was the first edition not to report an AIDS death in almost 15 years.

With fentanyl-from-Canada back in the news, a quick note: Canada is not a major source of fentanyl to the US.

A global game changer that needs regulatory approval as soon as possible as possible. newatlas.com/infectious-d...

In the same week it came to light a journalist was stalked… The highest unelected member of the Alberta government is actively trying to invalidate and suppress pretty much all journalists. How’s your democracy today? #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

From story on Alberta journalist intimidation: When a Globe reporter asked Ms. Smith about the story ... she said “I’m not talking about that” and laughed as she walked away. In an interview with CTV later in the day, she said, “I condemn it.” www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber...

President Trump disputes reporting from The Wall Street Journal that he sent a sexually suggestive drawing to Jeffrey Epstein in 2003, saying he doesn't "draw pictures." But in the early 2000s, he regularly donated drawings to charities in New York. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/18/u...

If anyone owes an apology, it's Danielle Smith & Minister Ellis whose demands for info & control interfered with the experts & frontline workers trying to save lives & property. Albertans deserve better than a petulant Premier who only knows how to pick fights & play politics. #abpoli

Trump threatens to strip citizenship from a native-born US citizen because he doesn’t like her speech. I hope everyone on Wall Street and Silicon Valley who voted for Trump because he promised lower taxes is proud of themselves

That there’s a police state.

Canada should totally be a member of the EU. Celine Dion won Eurovision. That is enough to apply.

Alberta as we know it today simply would not exist without the millions of immigrants and refugees who built it, who loved it, and who were proud to call it home - including my grandparents and my mum. This bitter xenophobia is as unAlbertan as it’s possible to be. I’m ashamed. I’m disgusted.

Canada named most positive leader on world stage #Canada #cdnpoli cultmtl.com/2025/03/cana...

Today, an avowed separatist leader from Quebec called for Canadian unity. Meanwhile, an avowed federalist from Alberta went out of her way to make it easier to launch a sovereignty referendum in her province. Power's a hell of a drug.

www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/art... This is not just a Liberal surge in the Ottawa area, but perhaps a backlash to Poilievre's support of the Ottawa Convoy. Not sure that has been forgotten by residents.

Of course he did. Using Signal for classified military discussions was never just a one-off.

I’m at the Edmonton Centre all-candidates forum. For some reason, independent candidate Ronald Billingsley Jr. has a half-empty bottle of gin on stage with him. “I can’t believe have to say this, but this is an unlicensed room,” said moderator Robyn Paches.

Elections Canada says they estimate that 2 million people voted on Friday, a new record

If you register as a third party and run partisan ads during an election campaign, you are not a journalist.

WTI is in the $50 range. Alberta budget forecasted $68. For every dollar difference it is a $750 million hit. Despite what Smith said, Trump's tariffs were not a big win for Alberta.

This is actually awesome. Carney says he intends to increase CBC funding “until it can be compared to that provided by other public broadcasters.”

NEWS: Whirlpool Corp. announces Iowa's largest layoff of 2025 in Amana manufacturing facility. Nearly 1/3 of the company’s workforce in the Iowa facility will be let go due to current market conditions.

"Someone needs to walk into the Oval Office and say, "Mr. President, we just fired the person who may have saved your life." Dr. David Kessler on whether Donald Trump understands what his indiscriminate cuts at HHS are doing.

-10% tariffs on oil/gas -25% auto, steel and aluminum tariffs -indication Trump will tariff other “strategic” areas, one of which is lumber A rando low-level subnational politician has no influence on any of it. This is why conservatives are blowing a 25pt lead. Delusional, the lot of them.

US women deserve better

Canada may not have cards, but does have: * potash * hydrocarbons * steel * aluminum * water * timber * people who are done with this ****

Reflecting on the closures of Hudson’s Bay, one of the best gifts I ever received was my grandmas 4 point wool HBC blanket, a wedding gift for my grandparents. 70+ yrs old and looks great! #HBC

This is fantastic news. Unless you’re an anti vaxxer. Then keep scrolling.

Share widely with Americans who foolishly think there's any interest in this idea, or that our minds will change as pressure increases. angusreid.org/wp-content/u...

Canadian marketing teams are having fun with these tariffs. At least we can kinda laugh about this nightmare?

🤢

Let’s get it built! 🇨🇦💪

Worth a watch youtu.be/z3rIlAITjXk?...

You are more then welcome to move to America. You don't represent the people of this Province.

When it comes to tariffs, Donald Trump has had more rollbacks than Walmart.

So cruel. I expect that 🇨🇦 will step up to welcome more 🇺🇦 refugees.

Good.

I called Canadian Premiers Doug Ford and Wab Kinew today as we try to find a way through this unnecessary and costly trade war. While the President may not value the partnerships that contribute billions of dollars to our economy, Minnesota does.

Imagine being elected president twice and still not knowing how Canadian elections work.

As a digital subscriber, I have been impressed by the quality of reporting over the last year. The enhancements to the app have also been a great success. Happy 181st birthday, Globe and Mail!

MEUSER: You've got Trudeau saying how the president is making a dumb move. That's bad diplomacy. SANCHEZ: I'm not sure how it's good diplomacy to say that a neighboring country should be the 51st state and that you're gonna impose economic hardship to achieve that goal.

Today you are going to see nearly every editorial piece written in Postmedia publications blaming Canadians or liberals for the trade war. This is to distract from the fact that they have American ownership, and have been arguing against Canadian interests for sometime.
