Canada: I know you're still talking about the UCP stripping Albertans rights with the NWC, but this government is in full Trump flood-the-zone mode, you have to keep up. Today they started to create a UCP police force and they dropped heavily gerrymandered new districts. This is an emergency.

Here's something that needs to be stressed: no amount of saying "political violence is never acceptable" is going to make Republicans NOT do more political violence and become more extreme. They were doing that anyway and it's literally not possible for them to do that faster than they already are.

I am as white as a hotel towel, and the closest thing to Mexican I am was a single all inclusive resort stay in Cancun. I put a Mexican flag sticker on my old Tacoma abd was promptly pulled over by ICE in San Antonio. I'm happy to waste their time

Their big question was like, "why the sticker" I told them it was on the truck when I bought it-and they suggested I remove it. Obnoxious creatures.

In exchange for less than nothing, Canada has to date: -spent $1.3 billion to address a non-existent fentanyl border issue; -introduced Trump-friendly border legislation; -sacrificed the Digital Services Tax, at a cost of $1.4 billion/year. It's almost as if the lesson is: appeasement doesn't work.

Ten years ago, Alberta’s median income was 17% higher than the national average. Today, with a mere 2% above national, we’ve fallen behind BC & Quebec. This decline is evident in rising unemployment and falling wages. The UCP promised prosperity, but delivered a decline.

This is Maggie. She saw this tree blossoming into its true colors and thought of you. 13/10
a golden retriever sits and looks directly at the camera. a gigantic tree is in full, bright pink blooms that completely fills the top half of the frame. both the dog’s fur and the tree are shimmering a little in the sunlight. in a delightful coincidence, the dog’s tongue almost perfectly matches the blossoms behind her.

A pastel colored graphic comparing real rabbits to stuffed bunnies. Real rabbits: “Soft and cute
Live 8-12 years
Generally hate being picked up
Need lots of space and attention
Poop a lot
Have fur that sheds and has to be groomed
Require regular vet care from a specialist and a varied diet with fresh produce”
Stuffed bunnies “Soft and cute
Live forever
Can be picked up and held any time
Require no space at all
Don’t poop
Don’t eat
Don’t shed
Never need to go to the vet”
