Whelp, I failed to get my last batch of Shortbread cookies made, and I'm the only one in my household working a full day today. That's how my Christmas is starting. How about yours?

We consider the use of the notwithstanding clause to be the ethical barrier broken by the UCP gov. Add that they are a separatist party. They should just call a game real election and be done with it

I believe this..strap in folks!

It's time for part 1 of 6 for my year end coverage! It's officially sicko season! First up, the 2025 Nerdys! Featuring prestigious awards like "most embarrassing game to play with my wife around" and many more! bignerdgaming.com/2025/12/22/t...

This one seems worth sharing along 😬

This could wind up being the most-watched newsmagazine segment in television history!! Congratulations to the Ellisons and Bari Weiss!!!

Today we donated our litter boxes, litter, mats, food, beds, dishes etc. to a local animal rescue. Our cat era has come to an end. I take comfort in knowing our loss will help other cats in need.

For 22 yrs she was by my side. My Mini Mew. The runt of the litter. Today we had to say goodbye. I've been mentally preparing for this one for a long time, still hurts, especially so soon after Screamy. I guess she was loney without him. Thanks for being the best little kitty. 🐾💔

Medicine Hat residents: This is your new bakery ✊

Well folks, I hit my goal in a matter of hours, so I’ve doubled my goal. SACE is important to me. I was assaulted the 1st time when I was a teen. I didn’t have an org like SACE to help. Let’s make sure that SACE can help everyone that needs them. #WeR4SACE #HHS2026

And Christmas Date Day Activity 2: Jingle bar, a holiday themed pop up bar! @toolcutie.bsky.social

Christmas date day activity 1: Die Harsh! @toolcutie.bsky.social

As if recall campaigns needed more ammo...merry Christmas! We Albertans don't want private services. We want the public services we are supposed to have as Canadians! #ableg

This article from Scott Schmidt is bang on. #abploi #ableg #cdnpoli medicinehatnews.com/commentary/o...

It's cute that people in the US still think there will be free and fair elections 😬

Infiltrating the Crimson fleet, a reunion with my good buddy Sam Coe (he was gone too soon in a previous life), and toddling around in Dredge, discovering the secrets of the Pale Reach #xbox #gamepass

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.

Awesome. "Activist judge" has now entered the Albertan conservative narrative. Why does Alberta get all the worst of the US? Obvious that American GOP Tactics are being adopted by the UCP. #ableg

This 4-pack pretty much represents my GamePass 2025. Only South of Midnight is missing, but these games held a lot of my attention this year. Revisiting these games every month for the 4 and 8 packs is awesome, especially Starfield! #xbox #gamepass

Like, wtf?! Is this even legal to change the rules? Immunity? Seriously? Maybe strive for legal, above board, ethical behavior instead? #ableg

Canadian Confederacy question: What checks and balances are in place to prevent a provincial government from introducing and changing laws that consolidates power in the ruling government, becoming more authoritarian? Alberta needs those checks and balances post haste! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

For what it's worth, the new Amorphis album is pretty awesome!

I wonder...are the 14+ recall petitions going to cost more than they saved by using the notwithstanding clause on teachers? Also this seems like a terrible reason and a court of law should use this to disqualify the use of the NWC in this instance #ableg

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 I just announced our UCP gov't will introduce a motion under our "Sovereignty" Act. This motion will not protect lawful gun owners from improper seizures and prosecution of illegal firearms, and glorifies "protecting" your property which could land you in prison.

Huge news!!

Y'know, I've seen more swastikas in the last 2 years than I feel I've seen in the entirety of my life. But sure, we don't have a Nazi problem...uh huh...

I'm continuing to play one long game in tandem with a shorter game. The shorter games make me feel like I'm accomplishing something, as well as clearing storage! Currently: Long Game - Outer Worlds 2 Short Game - Layers of Fear (Remake). I played the originals, and enjoy Bloober's games! #xbox

I Love this for her. She's pissed off Albertans while trying to keep her base happy, and they won't be happy with anything less than separation. Guess we all hate Danielle Smith! Anyone know if there's a leadership review as a part of this AGM? #ableg

Well well well. Me thinks Dani made another massive miscalculation. Play with fire, you're bound to get burned eventually.

Oilers fans SHOWED UP for Skinner and Pickard

Like in a general election instead of recalls?

Alberta says allowing doctors to work in the public system and bill patients privately will shorten wait times for everyone, while keeping costs down. But critics say the plan will make care worse for everyone. Q+A w/ @carrietait.bsky.social, Braden Manns www.cbc.ca/listen/live-... via @cbcnews.ca

The numbers show that no province, other than perhaps New Brunswick with its dominant Irving family, comes near Alberta’s level of corporate fiscal dependency. theconversation.com/the-big-four... #cdnpoli #abpoli #ableg

This, right here!

Christmas Baking has begun! First up, my Grandma's Whipped Shortbread!

During the same week that the UCP is expanding privatization, the auditor general finds that government interference cost taxpayers over $100 million. How can anyone deny it’s the government that’s the problem? #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli edmontonjournal.com/news/politic...

@mark-carney.bsky.social Maybe tie any energy deal to removal of notwithstanding clause, a commitment to using Health and education transfers for Public systems, and build in real consequences for violating these items. We need federal help against this rogue Provincial gov! #cdnpoli

Oh yay! Some good news!

"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...

“When a government grants itself license to override physician judgment and patient consent, who - at any stage of life — will be next?” The AMA raising very serious concerns about the UCP’s invocation of the notwithstanding clause. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

I feel like Alberta is trying to win a "taking away Canadians Rights and Freedoms" contest, invoking the clause on 4 laws now before a court has even had the chance to rule it unconstitutional. Help! Albertans are under attack! This is why operation full recall is needed. Accountability #ableg

The Salvation Army are a hate group. Do not forget that this winter.

You know, I'm just minding my own business and I come across some open racism in our FB community group.... Wtf is wrong with people?!

Our hearts are heavy tonight. First seizure Oct 1st. Second Oct 13th. Meds, a lot of patience and love, but we knew what was coming. Today we said goodbye to our amazing Screamy (there's a story behind his nickname) Gizmo, you were one of a kind. Thank you for 13 yrs of memories and love. 🐾💔

PM Mark Carney 🇨🇦 is the right man for the job. #cdnpoli He corrected the reporter without calling names, saying fake news or calling the media biased. This is a true world leader in the media. So unlike the Maple Maga opposition leader.

Sounds like we have all the aluminum the US needs but tarrifs are making it very expensive. Maybe the plants should move to Canada to avoid tarrifs? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is a good read!

We should also be holding our to higher ethical and moral standards. I think a fine for spreading disinformation and lies. $10,000 per offence? Maybe that would be insentive to verify info before spreading it? Start restoring trust in our representatives? Thoughts? #cdnpoli

Gross. He should just cross the floor, then file a police report because blackmail and extortion are in fact crimes
