Canada First means working across the board with Canadian political leaders from all spectrums to respond to the illegal economic attack on our country. With the election coming up, pay attention to who's up for this fight and who is actually on the side of a unified Canada.

UCP against a free market energy industry? If I don't know any better, I'd think conservatives like to say one thing, then just act in whatever manner lines their pockets for years after they're dethroned.

Democracy dies when people cannot tell the difference between truth and fiction. Propaganda is surprisingly effective when media ownership is concentrated in the hands of a few.

~Alberta's education funding is dead last in Canada despite being the wealthiest province. Why is it Demetrios Nicolaides, AB Minister of Education do you have funds for charter schools and private while our public schools are suffering?

It’s often thought that 🇨🇦Canada’s economic reliance on the 🇺🇸USA as our biggest trading partner is a matter of geographical inevitability. But if one’s partner has become prone to regular fits of neofascism and beggar thy neighbour protectionism, maybe it’s time to start making harder choices. 🤔

Stephen Harper May 29, 2008 "I should mention that while our plan will effectively establish a 'price on carbon' of $65 a tonne, growing to that rate over the next decade...Our plan will compel industry not just to pay for their carbon emissions but to actually reduce them."

🧵The University of Alberta has announced it is shifting from “EDI” to “access, community and belonging.” Based on my experiences researching inequality in higher education in Alberta, this is unlikely to have any benefits other than to appease the UCP.

Poilievre's success is tapping into frustrations of groups where those before them had it easier. He's getting these groups to blame each other (ie, social policies and wokeism are the cause) rather than decades of setting up rules that have created the greatest wealth inequality in our history.

I learned yesterday that Dr. James Stewart--who wrote the calculus textbook series that we all used in the 2000's (and is still the best source, in my opinion)--was a gay rights activist in Hamilton and Toronto in the 1970's. Mathematicians are badasses.

My new years resolution is to get back in touch with all those little things that make us Canadian. One of those, of course, is being far too critical of a bunch of super-talented teenagers representing us on the world stage of hockey under a pressure-cooker of national expectation. Let's go boys!

The "convoy protest" included traitors to our country trying to overthrow a democratically elected gov't, and far-right racist movements aligning our flag with some of theirs. This did immeasurable harm to our national unity and pride in the Canadian flag It's time we take our flag back.

Thoughts on being 62. Cynicism is a cheap luxury none of us can afford. Despair is where you go when you lose steam in the rage wars. So disengage. Our job as elders is to be there for the young. To call out the motherfuckers of disinformation. To build on the history of resistance. To give hope.

Was out today at the postie picket line. If you follow the media, every Canadian is outraged at the nerve of workers asking for more at Christmas (of all times). The reality? Every other car that goes by honks in support. Canadian workers demand respect and appreciate those that fight for it.
