As MAGA Alberta Premier pushes an independence vote, important to remember: Alberta separatist movement largely based on lies, conspiracy theories, intolerance, and myths of a magical past... My take: thewalrus.ca/albertas-sep... cc @jaredwesley.ca @ryanjespersen.bsky.social

@mark-carney.bsky.social Just because you say it's "climate action" doesn't make it so. Shame on you for embracing climate science denial. www.cbc.ca/player/play/... #ClimateScienceIsNotAHoax #DecarbonizeNOW #NoMorePipeLines

SaskTel still delivers phone books to residents of Moose Jaw. There's even a small Yellow Pages section!!

@mark-carney.bsky.social You need to keep this promise!!!

I've only ever seen these in the movies... I didn't realise that they are still "a thing". If I put one on the dash of my truck, do I also need to install a gun rack and truck-nuts? 😊

The local archery club here in Moose Jaw has an interesting set of practice targets.

@thebeaverton.com @theonion.com There is absolutely NO truth to the rumour that Trump demolished the Whitehouse's East Wing to prevent Canada from burning it down a second time. #CanadaRules #WarOf1812Part2

I'm reading Lee Kuan Yew's history of Singapore. In vol. 2 he reflects on the difference between British & USA foreign influence: "The British had enforced their will with a certain civility. The Americans were different... with bulging muscles and a habit of flexing them." Has anything changed?

The whopping bee aggregation is one of the largest and oldest ever recorded, according to a new study

So, should it read "landfills" or "landfill"? I can make the case for either wording. I wonder what the original writer was trying to say? #copyeditquestion

‘Entrapment hazard’: Health Canada announces recall for retractable baby gates

Well worth reading.

When Trump dies and people celebrate that fact, show this to anyone who complains.

Those of us living close to the Convoy's occupation of Ottawa, & saw the complete breakdown of law and order, know the Feds had no choice but to use the Emergencies Act. Those who say that other means could have been used are Monday-morning quarterbacks, ignoring the fact that other means failed.

#Australia could have had three times as many #EVs on the road, powered by renewables. Instead, we are pumping dirty fuel into our tanks because of a ridiculous scare campaign.

An unadvertised feature of MS Word is the ability to have a list of words that are always shown misspelled. This feature is almost impossible for regular users to access, so I've written an Addin for Word that enables editing of them: github.com/christopher-... It adds a new group to the Review tab.

Declaring "Mission Accomplished" - that always works out well for US Presidents

Mark Carney's embrace of Trump's illegal, falsehood-based war isn't hard-headed realpolitik: it's a direct enabling of a tyrant wannabe who poses an existential threat to Canada. As Timothy Snyder argues, only by resisting Trump's lies can the US--and Canada, and the world--hope to get through this.

I saw this ring-necked pheasant in Moose Jaw, today.

Mr. Carney, you have shamed Canada by announcing today that you back U.S. action against Iran. (1) @mark-carney.bsky.social The American President is dishonest. He lies and cheats his way through life. He also cannot abide by anyone else’s success.

The Canadian Forces Snow Birds were practicing here in Moose Jaw, SK, this afternoon.

An example of why Canadians should NOT travel to the USA under any circumstances. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... #NoRuleOfLawInUSA #PoliceStateUSA

@mark-carney.bsky.social What support is your government providing to Judge Prost (a Canadian) to help her deal with Trump's gangland attacks on her and her family? Moreover, what support is Canada providing to her peers on the bench who also need help? www.theguardian.com/law/2026/feb...

This is a textbook case of how climate science deniers work to undermine decarbonisation: say something true (i.e., we need to upgrade the grid to handle all the new wind power electricity) and then trundle out lies (i.e., heat pumps/EVs don't contribute to decarbonisation). #ClimateScienceIsTrue

Why does each government of the day view money given to Canada Post a "loan"? Canada Post isn't a business, it's an essential service for many millions of remote-living Canadians. It's not supposed to be profitable! #CanadaPost #EssentialServices

Cool... you learn something new everyday!!

We desperately need a national medicare plan & stop pretending that every prov. is a snowflake? Ditto w/education: why does each prov. have a different math curriculum? It's not about being different, it's about power & control. #StupidIsAsStupidDoes

Boy, some real economic geniuses in the Drumpf Administration. Their plan to fruition: 1. Bolster the Canadian Auto Industry. 2. Destroy the US Auto Industry.

Canada going with the F-35's would be like buying a timeshare on a Borg cube.

This is happening a lot to female journalists. So here is a modest proposal for the White House press corps: Stand together. No one should ask another question until the President answers the question that was ignored.

Finally, some positive EV news here in SK. Sask. company talks electric vehicles with northern communities | paNOW share.google/FjBrs5UxbgcA...

It's depressing that SK's leadership rejects climate science (I'm not referring to the Court's ruling; it's the government's comments on the ruling that is depressing). www.ctvnews.ca/regina/artic... #ClimateScienceIsReal

From our new issue: Extremophile molds are invading art museums and devouring their collections. Stigma and climate change have fueled their spread

@mark-carney.bsky.social Canada MUST officially protest this threat by the Trump regime. Trump's game is a protection racket and we must vigorously resist the USA's actions against the sovereignty of Canada & other nations. #MakeAmericaGoAway #ResistTrump

It doesn't matter what you are responding to @australianlabor.bsky.social, hate laws should respond to all kinds of hate, and should not include criticism of the ongoing #Genocide and #WarCrimes of #Israel.

@mark-carney.bsky.social Resist Trump!!! Threatening violence is NOT "a negotiation tactic". It's intimidation & is illegal. Trump's game is a "protection racket" & is morally decrepit. www.bbc.com/news/article... #MakeAmericaGoAway #StupidIsAsStupidDoes

As someone who lived within hearing & walking distance of the Convey, & was inside the lockdown zone when the Feds finally took action, I cannot comprehend how the Court came to this conclusion. There was a complete breakdown in law & order & local authorities had failed. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

@mark-carney.bsky.social Canada must strongly & publicly condemn the Trump regime's move to annex Greenland; even if that means higher tariffs. Trump only understands strength, so we (& all of NATO) must be strong in Greenland's defense!! #ResistTrump

I turned 65 last year. The last thing I had ever expected to experience in my lifetime was the USA declaring war against NATO... yet, that is exactly what the Trump regime is doing. #WW3iscoming

EV batteries degrade at a slower rate in cold countries. Good news for me; since I live in a colder part of Canada and own an EV. www.geotab.com/blog/ev-batt...

Smiling... in a peculiar way.

Why aren't you condemning Trump's illegal actions!!

It's official. Canada is next to a dictatorship with no respect for international law, human rights, borders, or its own checks and balances. The US dictator said in no uncertain terms that he plans to invade a sovereign, peaceful, democratic nation We're next on his list. youtu.be/C_bRVOiKCfk?...

Trump's words were spoken like a true sociopath

Let's start taking security more seriously by sanctioning the Trump regime for their illegal actions around the world (kidnapping, killing, telling lies about other countries, etc.).
