The Prime Minister of Belgium speaks:

Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "

“Both Parks & Dr. Warren Thirsk… urge people who have bad or even tragic experiences to speak out publicly.” “This is how the system continues to ignore the real problems that exist. The privacy laws muzzle physicians.” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu...

A great answer by Rasmus Jarlov, Danish MEP to Stephen Miller's rant about Denmark being tiny and unable to defend itself: "I hope he is kept away from young women because that's the mentality of a rapist.You can't defend yourself so I'm going to take you" I don’t see the lie here do you?

"I am thankful for a lot of things in my life but seriously PMMC is topping the list right now. 🍁" Me too, me too...

"This post is not about Donbas or Russia."

Tonight at 8. ER docs have identified at least an additional 8 preventable deaths in the last ~ two and a half weeks in ER’s across Alberta. Including another one almost identical to the death of Prashant Sreekumar. We’re getting into it. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

JUST IN: Canada just drew a hard line. Prime Minister Mark Carney made it clear: Article 5 is not optional and Denmark is not standing alone. Canada is backing Denmark and Greenland while the U.S. openly talks annexation. This is a warning. Allies see it, and they’re done pretending this is normal.

Carney on foreign interference: "As Prime Minister I've always taken this extremely seriously just from the point when I got my security clearance well before I was elected leader of the Liberal Party.

My own group - the largest in the Senate - is the Independent Senators Group or @senindepend.bsky.social - and we were the first parliamentary caucus in Canada to quit X. (Please reward our audacity with a follow.)

“The number of new beds announced today is exactly what they announced on Nov. 14th, you can put the two press releases side by side and not know which is which.” “A thousand beds promised in November, a thousand beds promised again today. Not one of them has been opened. Not one.”

"How many more Trumpian statements does Pierre have to make before people can see the similarities." Geez Louise...wake up people. When they tell us who they are, believe them.

I found this to be a really clear presentation of some of the political and social dynamics that have brought us to this moment with respect to the United States’s current international positioning

1/2 "In medicine, we do not ask who someone is before we treat them. We do not ask where they are from, what they believe or whether they are "deserving." We treat them because they are injured.

“People who can stand, stand. Some are on the ground and we’re hoping they’re alive. And you walk by this carnage, and then you start your day,” he said. He added that some wait all night to be seen by a physician.

I received a message from an Alberta ED colleague that stopped me cold. He treated a very elderly pt - a retired Charge Nurse who began her career as WWII ended. She waited 8 hours in the WR for care. Her assessment of our current reality is devastating.... 1/8

🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific. They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him. Stop the lies.

Mamdani: For too long, those fluent in the good grammar of civility have deployed decorum to mask agendas of cruelty

Zelenskyy calls Russia’s claim of a strike on one of Putin’s residences a “complete fabrication,” a lie designed to sabotage diplomacy, justify more attacks on Kyiv, and excuse Moscow’s refusal to end the war. He warns the world must not stay silent as Russia tries to derail peace.

"Look for the helpers." They have been trying to tell you, again and again, what is going on in Alberta hospitals. Believe them. Your life may depend on it.

Anybody who reads about this tragic case and thinks this has to do with a HCW not recognizing the severity at triage has simply NOT been paying attention. threadreaderapp.com/... 1/14

“ER staff spend most of their time on admitted patients instead of new emergencies. The result is six-12-hour ER waits and eight-20 per cent of urban patients leaving without ever being seen.” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli edmontonjournal.com/opinion/colu...

"Senior Alberta government officials stalled the submission of a coal mine pollution study to a scientific journal and prevented the lead researcher from speaking publicly about his work, according to records The Narwhal obtained through a freedom of information request."

Alberta Government cleared legal obstacles and circumvented Court decisions to help separatists. They are separatists. #ForeverCanadian will be ready to defend Canada in a referendum. Please, register yourself as a supporter at Forever-Canadian.ca edmonton.citynews.ca/2025/12/16/a...

From my favourite theoretical astrophysicist (who studies the universe from beginning to end), Dr Katie Mack...

The UCP has made 2025 one of the darkest years for Alberta’s democracy. Albertans can turn on the lights in 2026. By simply being Albertan. Let me explain. 🧵 open.substack.com/pub/drjaredw...

I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.

Doing my morning reading, and want to call out @thebulwark.com, with @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social and @jvl.bsky.social (and others) for consistently smart takes that make me think.

Because 1. they aren't being vaccinated 2. they aren't being fed 3. when they are fed, it's a lot of crap 4. they're being shot 5. diseases are allowed to run rampant through their schools 6. one by one, their safety nets are being dissolved

This is among the most democratically dangerous things Danielle Smith has said. She wants to remove all checks and balances on her power and projects herself as the embodiment of "the people." We have left the realm of liberal democracy in this province.

Danielle Smith will do whatever it takes to avoid accountability for the CorruptCare scandal. Enough is enough. The Premier needs to call an independent public inquiry so Albertans get the answers we deserve.

"Observations, measurements, experimental results; gathered through rigorous, standardized methods. And observable, measurable, and reproducible by others. And just published in JAMA." Yup. We are vaccinated.

Why does the UCP government feel the need to target disabled Albertans instead of making life more affordable for everyone? youtube.com/shorts/PF82b...

Nearly a year ago, the former AHS CEO sounded the alarm about suspicious private surgical contracts. She was fired for it. Now, those same contracts are being cancelled as investigation after investigation reveals details that support her concerns. youtube.com/shorts/_Ddep...
