I am embarrassed to have an opinion about what a director I’ve only seen I think 3 movies by said on a podcast but every time I’ve ever seen Matthew Lillard in a movie I’ve enjoyed it; giving props to work you like rules over being catty and rude, & people who think catty and rude is good are bores

All super rich guys sound the same now. It’s all “I sleep four hours a night and spend the other twenty hours a day developing a product that’s going to bring us the best widespread poverty anyone’s ever seen.”

EPS's argument here is absurd. The pilot is to use the technology to capture private information in actual interactions with the public. The fact they may not commit to it permanently does not change that, or the applicable legal rules. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... I don't think this is widely understood: “In the Criminal Code, child sexual abuse and exploitation material includes photos, videos and any visual representation of someone under...18 or...depicted as being under the age of 18, and is engaged in explicit sexual activity”

I cannot stop thinking about this. There's a lesson about the unknowable value of art, beyond how storytelling can instill empathy being didactic etc, but mostly it's just such an amazing slice of reality. Every life is a universe.

This time last year we learned that the homeless population was living in such dire circumstances they experienced rare lice infections were so bad they were transmitted to organ donation recipients. What did we do after that to respond to human beings in those conditions?

Buried in the Doug Ford govt's fall budget are changes that would remove parts of Wasaga beach from provincial protection. As I reported in August, those parts are 60% of the world’s longest freshwater beach and the main nesting area for the endangered piping plover: thenarwhal.ca/wasaga-beach...

I would love to see a code of conduct for elected officials that has something similar to the lawyers' obligation to speak and criticize the justice system without undermining respect for it. This piece treats the unbelievable language from elected leaders as normal, and that's a problem. Wab Kinew

New coal settlement alert! This time, 95M. The only reason we know this because the company posted the amount & not govt. This taxpayer money should be funding education & healthcare but instead, Albertans continue to pay for the UCP flip flopping on coal policy #ableg www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The people at my polling station were so sweet, and working so hard, and it is extremely frustrating that their day, and the day of everyone waiting to vote, was made worse by a requirement that seems to serve no discernable purpose and solves no problem.

🚨 This is inexplicable news to share. If in Alberta and you want flu and covid shots for NEXT year (2026-2027), you have only until December 15 of THIS year to order them. This is not incompetence. It’s a deliberate choice to prevent as many people .. bookvaccine.alberta.ca/vaccine/s/pr... 1/2
