I've never seen a poll suggesting any chance of Alberta voting to separate. We have an election next year, when a party could run on a separatist platform. But no, let's waste time and money to entertain the little fantasy of facebook-misinfo-pilled extremists who will reject the results anyway.

OMG -- under questioning from Hassan, Trump's FDA nominee Heidi Overton refuses to acknowledge that Trump can ever be wrong about anything even after she's confronted with a specific example of something Trump is clearly wrong about

In an FB post, UCP party president Rob Smith writes "Premier (Smith) IS NOT spending $4 million on promoting “a sovereign Alberta within a united Canada”!!! He adds she told him any language on the separation question would be neutral and not as persuasive as Smith's other 9 questions.

In 2024, the US imported ~12 million metric tons of potassic fertilizers from Canada (hillnotes.ca/2025/06/05/p...) Specialized ships can carry ~60k metric tons, tho container ships <half that (www.sasktoday.ca/central/loca...) So we'd need at least 200 ships loaded from [checks notes] Belarus

This past week I got a DVD player again and started to rebuild a DVD and CD collection. Just gave my kid her first CD (K-pop Demon Hunters soundtrack) and DVD set (She-Ra complete series). I told her about liner notes, and showed her how to handle the discs to keep them in good condition.

I have a couple pieces in this art exhibition, Expressions of Métis Religion and Spirituality, which is at Harcourt House in Edmonton until tomorrow. It'll be touring to a few venues, so I'll post future dates and locations when I know them.

There was one singular person the Trump team wanted to kill. They thought they tracked him to his girlfriend’s place, presumably in a civilian apartment building in Sana’a. So they dropped bombs on the neighborhood and leveled the building. Reactions from the group: “amazing job” “Excellent” “👊🇺🇸💥”

“Most of the casualties in the US strikes were women and children, said Anees al-Asbahi, the spokesperson for the Houthi-run health ministry, on Sunday.
The Houthis' political bureau described the attacks as a "war crime". "Our Yemeni armed forces are fully prepared to respond to escalation with escalation," it said in a statement.
People in Sana'a said the strikes hit a building in a Houthi stronghold. A man who gave his name as Abdullah Yahia told Reuters: "The explosions were violent and shook the neighbourhood like an earthquake. They terrified our women and children."”

Yep, as I've been noting, INA 237(a)(4)(C) requires no allegations of lawbreaking, only that the Secretary of State declare that he/she has "reasonable ground to believe" that the person's presence in the United States "would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences."

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

Rocky IV is interesting as a Cold War-era movie, because it wasn't communism vs capitalism/individualism, it was the fake unity offered by authoritarian institutions vs being supported by real relationships with people who won't discard you once you stop being useful to their agenda

Trudeau: "He talked about banking again today in a tweet, which doesn't make any sense because 16 banks are currently active in Canada holding about $113b worth of assets in this country... what he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy, because that'll make it easier to annex us."

A missing Indigenous child was found dismembered, but you probably won't see those outside of the Indigenous community talking about it. Even our children don't matter to people.

unconscionable.
During the morning hours of Tuesday, February 25, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) warrantlessly picked up members of the Emanet family, Celal and Emine Emanet, from Jersey Kebab, located at 150 Haddon Avenue, Haddon
Township, NJ 08108.The Emanet family has an open case with United States Citizenship and Immigration Services
(USCIS) and has been waiting since 2016 for a decision on their case. USCIS has not decided whether to approve or deny their green card application for the past 9 years. While waiting for their case to be decided upon, Celal and Emine Emanet were left without a status.They are contributing members of society and taxpayers with a five-year valid business license.
Celal and Emine own and operate Jersey Kebab, a beloved Mediterranean restaurant across from the Haddon Township Municipality and Police building. The husband-and-wife pair own and manage the restaurant together, a hub for the community, and regularly feed underprivileged members of the community - the sign on the door stating, "Free to anyone with a disability, homeless, or simply cannot afford it." The couple start prep work together at 9 am and close up shop at 8:30 pm.
