Nation returns to Heated Rivalry to watch Canadians get fucked in a good way

A lot of permanent locations to sign the petition!

Unfortunately, things didn't work out in the home we found for Kilee. He's not a good fit for them and their cat. He needs a home without other pets. Once again, I am looking for a new home for him. Vet says he's in great shape. Loves people, house trained, doesn't bark or chew.

See my previous posts. I am again looking for a temporary place for Kilee, a lovable dog. He doesn't bark, doesn't chew, and is house-trained. He reacts aggressively towards other dogs and isn't ideal for cats. The owner is homeless after the two fled an abusive house. Anybody? #yeg

I don't believe for a second that they were in the dark about Epstein's abuse. There are emails where Noam is trying to help Epstein rehabilitate his image, ffs! You don't build up a reputation for yourself as a brilliant intellect and then miss the most overt sex trafficking ring in modern history

NEW from me today: Tumbler Ridge is mourning a horrific loss. But how the shooter's identity is being talked about online, and the dangerous links being made to trans people at large, will have resounding and dangerous impacts in the months and weeks to come. xtramagazine.com/power/tumble...

30 years ago this week, I started writing this song—Shoes of a Man. Inspired by my grandfather's life, it has been a mainstay over the years, and folks still tell me that it is a meaningful song for them.

Here is my latest. Sylvain Charlebois, Canada's beloved commentator on the food industry, thinks that not giving us access to raw milk is communism. noraloreto.substack.com/p/canadas-fo...

The federal government is closing seven of its farm research centres, where scientists develop resilient crop varieties and test new agricultural practices. Farmers worry the cutbacks could threaten their competitiveness, as drought and other climate pressures mount. thenarwhal.ca/canada-agric...

I’m really, really tired of people needing to find out for themselves why we needed public health advances in the first place. Read a book

I approve this message

I mean…no shit. But it’s always good to have data. Not that men will believe us when we quote it.

May the Epstein files remind every woman that she should not feel beholden to beauty standards established by men who are attracted to children.

Little did Kitty Cat know that Penny is a friend to all the creatures on the farm. #yeg #alberta #interspeciesfriend #horsesofbluesky

Second-Hand Peace Prize is the name of my Milli Vanilli cover band.

To see a news agency adding positions for journalists, especially local reporters, seems like something out of the deep past. Uncanny. But I like it.

I teach bystander intervention for a living and have taught de-escalation to law enforcement. Trust me when I say that bottle girls, gas station clerks, strippers, front desk employees at hotels and airports, baristas, etc. have better de-escalation skills than any cop I've ever seen.

Why should Alberta stay in Canada? The reasons aren’t just economic or legal. I hope you will read and share my robust rebuttal to those trying to break up our country. And I hope you’ll respond. #cdnpoli #Alberta #ableg #abpoli #Canada #SenateofCanada

Mark Carney turns off geolocation on phone just in case

Great to see our PM-in-waiting rhetorically swat away the rules-based international order like it’s a pesky l’il fly

@evansolomon.bsky.social is Canada's Minister of Artificial Intelligence & Digital Innovation. Let's make sure he's aware of the rampant digital sexual harassment & abuse on X from people using Grok to edit images without consent. Take action and ask him to make sure Canadian laws regulate AI:

Heartbreakingly, despite our best efforts, today the Government of Alberta was able to bring an end to the injunction against Bill 26 on the basis of its use of the notwithstanding clause. This is a cruel and dangerous move by a government that will harm vulnerable young people.

Edmonton police officer reprimanded for inappropriate texts to sexual assault complainant Here’s a written version of my TV story from last week with a bit more context. #yeg #Alberta edmonton.citynews.ca/2025/12/08/e...

making a law called the Jordan Peterson law which states that you can win any argument if you start crying

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, I hope Albertans will remember that trans kids and teens are living breathing humans who just want to be themselves, without fear of hate and discrimination. Demonizing kids merely to score political points in some weird culture war is craven and cruel.

"Whether it’s lies about the safety of puberty blockers or the competitive impact of allowing trans women to compete in women’s sports, the stances and statements Smith is repeatedly trotting out.... are at their best misleading and at their worst outright lies." xtramagazine.com/power/politi...

I am pretty sure that when Merv Leitch and Peter Lougheed first created the notwithstanding clause, they didn’t mean it to be deployed to bully and oppress literal school children. #ableg #abpoli #TransRightsAreHumanRights #Alberta #notwithstandingclause

Edmonton has had a disturbingly high number of frostbite amputations the last two winters. With freezing temps on the way, both the City and the Government of Alberta must do more to prevent people from freezing in the cold. edmontonjournal.com/opinion/colu... #ableg #yegcc

In August, the B.C. Supreme Court ruled the Cowichan Tribes have Aboriginal title over a portion of land on the Fraser River, which is now part of the City of Richmond. The decision has caused quite a stir, but what does it all mean? APTN News explains.

If the purpose of all of the new rules (forms at polling stations and banning tabulators) was about increasing election integrity and confidence (which was already very high), then these events are going to have an opposite impact.

"Are my hot flashes due to an estrogen imbalance or a rapidly warming planet hastened by unaccountable oil barons who own our elections?"

I am seeing a lot of people reposting Lakota Man today bc it's Indigenous Peoples Day. A reminder that he is not well liked amongst many (most?) Natives on social media. Many of us blocked him a long time ago. Some of the reasons why are in this article. www.dailydot.com/irl/lakotama...

Taurus: You will have the opportunity to exact a terrible vengeance. Take it. Treat yourself.

It’s so dry at our farm/east of Edmonton. Most - if not all - sloughs/waterbodies have dried out. So stressful for everyone! I was quite surprised to see this beaver in the dugout. Glad they found some water, much to the chagrin of the neighbourhood muskrat #yeg #alberta #wildlife

“It's not 50/50. It's 50% to the winner, 27.7% to the private company, Win50, and the charity at the end of the day gets around 20%.” The “staggering” amount paid to Win50 over the last 4 years raises a lot of questions about how the EOCF operates, Bahen said www.stalbertgazette.com/beyond-local...
