OMG! My mother lived through the hunger winter in Apeldoorn. My Canadian father liberated my mother. I know their stories but this provides context for them and explains so much.

Smith took a simple yes or no question & managed to make it both multiple choice & linguistically redundant. The 40 year strategy of blaming the Feds for every grievance under the sun has finally come to roost & Smith’s shown up with the bravado of a rooster & focus of a chicken. #ableg

It pisses me off that these people can pull this crap with no consequences If I did this MSM would be calling for my blood and I would be jailed awaiting trial without bail But Parker & co are still selling Albertans' data and NOTHING Thank you National Observer #ableg #abpoli

Huh. Interesting comment from an OShow Scandal Panel viewer 👀 youtu.be/VlvYY0X5Afc?si…

So the trade bullshit was to bankrupt the farmers so land for data centers could be bought for pennies on the dollar. Got it.

Every time a similar (but not as severe as Carney’s ) lawful access bill has been tabled in the European Parliament it has been defeated as a gross violation of EU citizens’ privacy. Canadians deserve the same considerations.

Tomorrow (Saturday), is your opportunity to join proud Canadians and show your support for unity. Wear our Canadian colours and join us at the opening of the #ForeverCanadian Edmonton campaign office. I hope to see you! (Office openings in other cities coming soon) #Yeg

WATCH LIVE — We will not stand by and let the extremists who run the Premier also run this province. We’re going to stand up and fight. For our home. For Alberta. For Canada. https://www.youtube.com/live/qlyaPmC-aqo?si=9eJoHOjTEQmVeo-e

The question Smith has put forward for referendum is unanswerable with a simple X in a box The question will have to be divided into two questions, or maybe four or it's a trick question, which will screw Albertans over Is there legal recourse for this? We can't trust Smith to do the right thing

A pilot installation of 50 compact VAWT units on a 2-kilometre section of the A6 central reservation near Mannheim is generating electricity since 2023, the generation per unit is modest but the potential across Germany's 13,000 kilometres autobahn is significant and the costs are low #ActOnClimate

NEW: It's a major issue in some rural Ontario towns - trucking depots being set up on arable farmland without zoning permission. For years, places like Caledon have struggled with the problem, which the government says it has new rules to address. #OnPoli globalnews.ca/news/1185727...

These are not new conditions. They are in the MOU that was accepted and signed by Smith a few months ago. All PM Carney is doing here is reminding albertans of these three conditions. Besides these three there has to be private investors. Ottawa is not footing the entire bill.

Wow! While the committee is still deliberating on the #ForeverCanadian petition, government just issued a press release that the committee has already made a decision and recommended a referendum on separatism. Wow! Decision announced before it was made. A gong show? #ableg

The world’s largest sand battery got through Finland’s harshest winter in years. 2,000 tonnes of sand, heated to 500-600°C by cheap power, feeding district heating in Pornainen. And it worked. Result from one install: oil down 100%, emissions down 70%. Industrial process heat is the real prize.

A made-in-Nova Scotia film, based on a true story, is having success in theatres that’s ‘normally not heard of.’ Little Lorraine hit the big screen early April, and demand from people eager to see it has forced Cineplex to add more showings across #Canada www.ctvnews.ca/atlantic/nov...

Toronto city councillors want Doug Ford's Billy Bishop airport plan added to the October ballot — if the province will let them. Requesting a formal referendum is a long-shot attempt by some of Toronto’s elected officials to change the course of a provincial move the city has little control over.

Chronic underfunding, not financial mismanagement, is the problem in Ontario schools. Year after year they are asked to do more with less. By @ricardotranjan.bsky.social #onpoli www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc...

OTTAWA – There is a high risk of measles transmission within Canada during the FIFA World Cup, an analysis by the Public Health Agency of Canada warned Thursday.

France is mandating solar panels on every large commercial car park in the country — turning millions of square metres of idle asphalt into one of Europe's most productive clean energy assets. I have been mentioning this for months - they are shooting up on all the supermarket car parks.

CTV National News, thank you for giving me the opportunity to summarize the state of politics in Alberta. #ForeverCanadian has a long battle ahead, but with the support of all Canadians, the rule of law will prevail. #ableg #cdnpoli youtu.be/dnp3q6aIplE

Scientists say next year could surpass 2024 as the planet’s warmest year since modern records began in the mid-19th century. 🥵 The human consequences can be enormous. #ExtremeWeather

The courts have quashed the extremist referendum to break up our country. Danielle Smith knew this referendum wasn't legal. The Crown signed treaties with the First Nations 30 years before Alberta was created. First Nations will defend their rights. Will Smith back down or burn the house down?

Burning your census documents? How brave! Reality: Good example of how amorphous rage & grievance drives much of this end of the political spectrum. A performative and irrational tantrum. If they believe in democracy, accountability, and having their voices heard, you kind of need a census!

A nasal spray with nanotech that crosses the blood-brain barrier after stroke that can be used at home or on the way to the ER to minimize damage. Wow. China seems to have a lot of nice things. You'd think we could, too.

These attacks against visibly Jewish people keep happening. It's like people have completely lost the concept that you don't attack citizens of this country because of the actions of a government of another. Police at synagogues won't solve this. People walk to shul. www.cp24.com/local/toront...

Protected cycling infrastructure can be enabling. ‘s-Hertogenbosch, Netherlands.

Ford ignores ridings impacted by his airport plans because they rarely elect PC MPPs and don't affect his re-election. Proportional representation would fix this. Since every vote counts toward seat totals, he would need broad majority support and couldn't ignore communities.

I hate this so much. Alberta is working on provincial legislation to ban and/or remove bike lanes. Like Doug Ford in Ontario.
