The #Oilers re start, where they left off, before the Olympics, losing fourth game in a row. Messiah, Paul Coffey, hasn’t taught Darnell Nurse to defend In front of the hash marks in his own end. More work to do with the 10 year veteran.

Hey #Alberta that Data Centre that needs more power than the grid can provide, shorturl.at/4Brt8 may want to check on Form Energy. Here’s how the technology works vimeo.com/797119482?fl... .

Connection is not about how much time we spend together. It's about how much joy and meaning we create together. Overjoyed to announce my new book: adamgrant.net/book/vibe/

Oilers fans get a glimpse of practice readjustments refined over the last week. They are out of runway in losing streaks. Paul Coffey, the magician, is on board to hold hands with Evan Bouchard and Darnell Nurse, the $20M men!

US trade representative: "tariffs will be a part of any deal with the administration" Me: I know how to resolve that. No deal. You don't make concessions to an untrustworthy counterparty.

Immigrants are to blame for #Alberta ns dying in the Emergency Room hallways. Kids jammed into overcrowded classrooms, replete with the social issue emerging there. A budget deficit nudging $6B. Aren’t conservatives deemed astute money managers? UPC problems are always some one else’s fault!

“Canada and the U.S. share a border, but their natural‑resource systems couldn’t be more different. Canada is provincially centric. The U.S. is federally centric.” For the join the U.S crowd in #Alberta, the ownership of energy resources transfers to Washington. FYI @pancholirakhi.bsky.social

“The deputy leader assured reporters that her leader had just returned from a well-deserved vacation and would reappear soon. I’m sure the UCP was relieved. “ Mr.Nenshi has been on vacation for a year. One rebuttal to the GoC convinces #Alberta ns of nothing! Tell us why we need to care.

What you have to understand is that Carbon Capture and Storage is driven not by environmental concerns but by fossil fuel industry demands. It provides both a new revenue stream (at our expense) and the mother of all greenwashing schemes. Whether it works or not (it doesn't) is entirely irrelevant.

Hugo Dixon makes an excellent point: move frozen Russian assets, including associated liability, out of Belgium into full control by the European Union. Eliminate any Russian threats & subversion which has turned weak Belgium into a deer in the headlights.

BYD has a fleet of 8 ships capable of delivering over 1 million EVs worldwide annually. BYD Explorer No.1 – 7,000 BYD Changzhou – 7,000 BYD Hefei – 7,000 BYD Shenzhen – 9,200 BYD Xi’an – 9,200 BYD Changsha – 9,200 BYD Zhengzhou – 7,000 BYD Jinan – 9,200 Let that sink in 😉 #Bettrification

GOOD NEWS: The world’s largest steam-producing heat pump is now online in Finland, delivering 12 MW of superheated steam from waste heat and CO₂-free electricity. Proof that industrial heat can be electrified at scale. www.pv-magazine.com/2026/02/19/w...

Finally breaking my silence on this matter. Ukrainian forces have launched counterattack operations in the Russian-occupied parts of the Dnipropetrovsk region in Ukraine and almost completely liberated that area from the Russian invasion forces.

If a pipeline made solid business sense, private investors would back it. As MOU talks continue, Alberta and Ottawa should stick to their commitment: no public money for a new pipeline. Taxpayers shouldn’t be on the hook. buff.ly/J5bPOFK

Edmonton's longest-serving mayor was removed from office TWICE for unethical conduct, one of those removals confirmed by the Supreme Court. And that didn't stop him from winning another election afterwards www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsRI...

Wearing my ⁦@teamcanadaforever.bsky.social jersey all day today, honouring the superb athletes who competed on the world stage & made us all so proud. I especially loved seeing their parents, emotion on their faces showing the years of work & our shared humanity of hopes & dreams together.

The Yanks aren’t good at regime change.

As someone particularly tuned into hockey commentary, Cheryl Pounder has been the best panelist by far the last past two games. No cliches. No b.s. about body language or the look in a player’s eyes. Solid, tactical analysis. 👍

EV sales jumped +26.2% globally in 2025 to 13,625,897 BEVs. Market share hit ~17% — more than every 6th new car sold is fully electric. Just 15 years ago we sold 7,200 BEVs in a year. Now we sell that many every ~4.5 hours. That’s not transition. That’s scale and acceleration. ⚡🔋 #Bettrification

If you are a Canadian who doesn't take a lot of road trips (or is a 2 car family with another one for trips) I would seriously consider the VW IDBuzz after its massive price drop. Its been (somewhat fairly) criticized for its shorter than avg range but depending on habits its more than enough 1/

The defense Paul Coffey coahed last year, isn’t the one the Oilers' owner thinks he can save, now. Evan Bouchard and Darnell Nurse haven’t performed to their reputations or their pay cheques! Is that Mark Stuart's fault! Do either player take directions? Their play doesn’t indicate that.

Hey, @daveberta.bsky.social, where, is @naheednenshi.bsky.social,does he have any thing to say anything...? Goodness how weak can a political leader be? #ABNDP

If you still aren’t convinced that the Premier of Alberta wishes to destroy Canada as we know it, check out question 8 and 9.

Alberta could: 1) Diversify its economy 2) Raise the income tax rate 3) Increase the corporate tax rate 4) Increase the royalty rate 5) Introduce a sales tax Instead, it’s blaming immigrants. This is racism. This is xenophobia. This is shameless avoidance of responsibility. This is not my Alberta.

Smith kicked off the sovereignty referendum campaign tonight. The fight for the future of Alberta starts now.

I have many complaints about the ANDP, but a big one is how slow they are to react to breaking news. It’s been 14 hours since Bruce McAllister’s tweet about non-white people, and I haven’t seen a single NDP MLA respond. In a 24/7 social media climate, this is totally unacceptable.

Edmonton’s BRT has to be in exclusive lanes 75% of the time, but we will have no idea if this actually results in improved reliability and speed because major congestion points could be skipped in favour of prioritizing car traffic

The last time the owner interfered with Hockey Operations, the Oilers drafted Nail Yakapov! Paul Coffey's legendary status is misappropriated. He won StanleyCups. He iterated on the game, following Bobby Orr's lead. Like Darnell Nurse and Evan Bouchard he needed an elite defensive partner.

OILERS NATION What Paul Coffey’s return to the Oilers coaching staff means for the organization By Jason Gregor https://oilersnation.com/news/paul-coffey-return-edmonton-oilers-coaching-staff-means-for-organization

Internal combustion won’t collapse from ideology — it’ll collapse from arithmetic. EVs are at price parity, and some are already cheaper than ICE. When TCO flips decisively lower, demand shifts fast, margins compress, and capital runs. Money talks. Cost curves shout. #Bettrification #RIPOIL #LFP 🔋

American colonists 250 years ago were very worked up about judicial independence and the rule of law. Now it seems it's only the British who still care www.theguardian.com/uk-news/live...

Just sayin', solar & batteries are the thing that's going to keep on surprising us, over and over and over again. They'll be the default for low energy density end-uses (buildings except some peak heat needs, transport, light manufacturing with heat batteries, etc.) h/t @aukehoekstra.bsky.social

I regret to inform you that the Globe and Mail's opinion section is at it again. This time it's the Fraser Institute's Kenneth Green getting a byline -- and using it to spread any number of obvious falsehoods. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/com...

This one applies to Canada's conservatives too - #climatepolicy might be in retreat for the time being, but they need a platform other than "Axe the (already axed) tax".👇

Ember released an important paper today on which I am named as a co-author. It is about the need to restructure energy data around the needs of the modern energy system. Primary Energy is dead, long live Useful Energy! ember-energy.org/app/uploads/...

Hey, @naheednenshi.bsky.social what's the #ABNDP plan for investing in #Alberta ns as oil and gas jobs continue to disappear. As transportation electrifies, more oil and gas industry jobs disappear. What's the plan to keep Albertans employed?

It seems #Canada’s EV deal with China is top of mind with #Ford. Worth watching closely, as US simultaneously ratchets tariffs and looks at trade deals. Chinese EVs are anticipated to arrive in Canada in April or May. That means they need to be on a roll on - roll off carriers in a month!

China👀 Game changer #EVs But they won’t tow your boat🙄

This is incredible

Canada finally getting serious 🇨🇦⚡ C$97.3M into clean transport — incl. C$84.4M for ~8,000 new EV chargers (~20% network expansion). Add ZEV subsidies + 2035 mandate pressure + Chinese EV cost curves knocking at the door. This isn’t signalling. It’s positioning. #Bettrification

This is why electrification means more energy security: In 2024, ~81% of EU electricity came from locally sourced fuels (57% excluding nuclear). Just 19% relied on imported fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are mostly imported. Source @ember-energy.org
