Here's the thing, and I don't think I am alone in this. You could take a fence post, and paint it blue, and make it the leader, and I'd be more likely to vote for that CPC than anything that has PP as leader.

Pop up ads and sliding thingys have made web surfing on a phone screen untenable. I can't stand it anymore. Can't read anything on it, and I can tell when the story actually ends.

Why was the letter E the only one who got a Christmas present? Because the rest of the letters were naughty.

We should make “Buy 🇨🇦Canadian🇨🇦This Christmas” as a Christmas campaign. This is typically the time of year when consumer spending is at its highest; let’s keep those dollars in Canada.

“I am so sorry I need help.” This is what an elderly retired nurse told me recently. She’s a patient, like all of us. She had devoted her life to help others. She has complex medical issues which had stabilized well until she got COVID and then long-COVID 2 years ago. 1/

The ABgov is again trying to improve their bottom line on the backs of the vulnerable. This time they are drastically reducing the amount of aid available to those on AISH while at the same time, crowing about how they are falsely adding supports. The proposed change to ADAP will require more /1

If you are angry, as you should be, that restricting access to the vaccine will make covid worse and more dangerous, please start wearing a mask, which actually does a significantly better job of preventing transmission in the first place.

AISH recipients despair over province’s changes to disability programs. “It's been made very clear that I'm a burden on this government, that they view disabled people as burdens, that we don't have any worth or value unless we're working. It’s gut-wrenching.” www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I’ve gotten used to seeing AB push polls but Alberta Next “consultation” is outrageous. Just did the immigration one. From the very first sentence being a lie (no, we don’t have an open border policy) to options all having nudges, a dumpster fire in survey design top to bottom.

Working on a new way of visualizing smoky days: Calendar-style charts. These show the number of 'smoke hours' (as defined by Environment Canada) each day in Calgary during the wildfire season in 2023, 2024 & 2025 to date. Thoughts / feedback welcome. Aiming to publish these soon-ish on cbc.ca

Three charts showing the months of May, June, July, August and September for 2023, 2024 and 2025. Each day on the charts is coloured either blue for no smoke hours, or increasingly dark colours of orange/burnt red/black to depict more smoke (up to 24 hours for a given day.) Chart hopefully shows just how smoky 2023 was, with many smoky days and many heavy smoky days throughout the whole season. 2024 wasn't quite as bad with periods of heavy smoke in July and August but mostly smoke-free the rest of the time. 2025 was clear through may and a few smoky days in early June so far.

We had some good clean rammed earth fun today with students from HS Bremen. They were exhausted in a good way, because they did build walls from scratch, the whole value chain without outsourced labour and fossil fuel. No products just pure building. Once you understand this it's a game changer.

Makes sense since Damien and Pierre were both out handing Timbits to the Convoy Occupation. There is strong convoy support out there. (I grew up with Damien's parents in the riding.)

The CPC platform is 30 pages long. It has 17 pictures of Pierre Poilievre, including four full page ones (with no comment). The Liberal platform is 67 pages long, it has one picture of Mark Carney. Take from that what you will.
