3/8 The funding model resembles an elaborate Ponzi scheme fuelled by debt. Hyperscalers are projected to borrow $250 billion this year. Meanwhile, massive government deficits have created a tsunami of cash and a glut of savings among the wealthy, which is now ploughed into stocks.

This by-election in Calgary’s deep suburbs, in a seat UCP won last time by 14%, had potential to become either a clear warning about Danielle Smith and referendum politics in urban Alberta, or about the NDP leadership of Naheed Nenshi. And well whaddya know. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Of the 12 seats the UCP won in Calgary last election, only two of them were won by bigger margins than Shaw, which the NDP flipped in tonight’s prereferendum by-election. This result could make many Calgary cabinet ministers nervous.

My high school staged "The Diary of Anne Frank," and we were all kids, goofing around and laughing. The drama teacher came in the next day with a book of pictures from the Holocaust, threw it at us, and said: "THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE AFRAID OF." and walked out It changed us, and our performances.

More BEFORE/AFTER: A photo of Alvarado and Trump together has been removed from the homepage. The bio is edited; mentions of Trump & "America First" are gone. A sign of how Trump's declining approval is complicating things for Republicans, even in districts he won handily.
