I guess the silver lining to this, is that based on recent history we should have about 1-2 hours notice of nuclear war because 6-10 brand new wallets are going to bet an insane amount of money on one of these dates “randomly”.

All I’m saying is @aircanada.bsky.social has the ability to do a legendary ad with this information.

Alex Pretti showed more courage and conviction in 20 seconds than the entire Democratic establishment has in the half decade.

I don’t even wear a jacket for -10, a quarter zip usually does it for me.

To an extent I appreciate the need to take the Alberta Independence movement seriously but the irony of trying to host your separatist event at “Canadian” Brewhouse to be told to leave and then pivoting to “Swamp Donkey” needs to be highlighted.

If I were America, I would do a quick history lesson on what happened the last time….

There was a lot of commentary the other day about Justice Feasby’s epilogue regarding the Citizens Initiative/Independence Referendum (and the issues he had with the UCP’s use of the NWC) but this paragraph (in the decision and not epilogue) should draw as much, if not more attention.

This is an excellent summary of Sabir’s comments, but the missing thing is that Janis Iwrin is absolutely *seething* in the background. Like absolutely furious.

Danielle Smith and the UCP’s Bill 1 is literally Labour Convention Reference (1937) UKPC 6 repackaged and presented as some landmark drawing a line in the sand in federalism. Lord Akin literally said this was the case almost 90 years ago!

You will of course note that pretty much unanimously democratic lawmakers and left leaning commentators are denouncing in the strongest terms political violence but you wouldn’t get that impression from various conservative commentators.

Banning Margret Atwood’s The Handmaids Tale is a bit on the nose even for the UCP.

Did my part and signed @lukaszukab.bsky.social #ForeverCanada petition today. The Separatists were also there (all three of them!) My wife wouldn’t let me go have a constructive dialogue with them.

Six months in and the Dems have finally woken up it seems.

The Jubilee videos are bad not because of the format (although it is bad) but because literally only one side benefits and it’s the “openly Nazi/racist/christian fascist” side because they get their insane views in front of people who would never be exposed to them outside.

Trevor, what the hell are you doing there lending credibility to this?

Nickelback is actually one of the best Canadian bands of all time.

Look, I didn’t have super high hopes for the Alberta Next Panel, but with some of the names associated with it, I was cautiously optimistic. Doing the survey now (after watching the 3 min propaganda video to get to it), that optimism is gone.

It’s indicative of how poorly prepared the Democratic leadership is for this moment when Schumer’s statement is ambiguous as to whether his proposed use of theWar Powers Act is meant to oppose Trump’s actions or retroactively authorize them.

Whatever happens tonight, I love this team.

This 15 year old has a better appreciation and understanding of the meaning of sport than a majority of adults who go watch their kids participate. Sport is about being part of a community that supports you in pushing yourself.

The suggestion that Alberta is going to separate from Canada and Albertans keep their Canadian passports and CPP entitlements absolutely ridiculous.

Pain.

Turns out the tone that gets RTs and likes from terminally online partisans does not play well with average people. Whoever could have known this?

Just so we’re clear, Trump is about 4 executive orders away from ordering tariffs on all non American workers on national security grounds.

The children don’t need 30 dolls because the children yearn for the mines.

Fundamentally the core of the Tate brothers appeal is they provide a clear and easy path to being lazy while pretending otherwise. “Women and minorities deserve rights” is not at all confusing or contradictory to “be competitive in sports” if you engage in any amount of thought.

If Alberta separates, does this not mean Poilievre loses his seat again?

I feel bad for the students right behind him because they can’t pull out their phone any play Tetris when this thing hits hour 4 like everyone else does.

This really is the most elaborate @thestrategists.ca bit yet.

Wait is RFK Jr now saying the Trump admin is in favour of gender affirming care?

Fire everyone on the Debate Commission for both creating these rules and rolling over off a terribly drafted demand letter.

Part of the reason we are in this fascist mess is the media has been terrible for years now on framing stories. It’s irrelevant whether Garcia is “father of the year”: he was denied due process. Focus on *that*/why it’s bad, not the emotional appeals that give the other side easy talking points.

Alito and Thomas: Actually, the framers intended that Article II powers under Constitution let Trump personally decide who gets American citizenship and who doesn’t.

So because *some* countries have called and *some* countries have not retaliated (including presumably the penguins and America’s own military case) he’s pausing tariffs on everyone except China. Do I have this correct?

It’s my understanding that Carney is the Emergency Back Up for tonight’s game.
