Democracy flourishes when public healthcare and education thrive. People who trust in the protection of human rights are free to build a great economy. An honest, vigilant, and courageous media is the bedrock. Dogs, especially whippets, rule.

I remain concerned that the premier will use any potential problems on referendum day/on Elections Alberta's part to justify *another* referendum -- one that would presumably keep the separatists off her back for a little while longer. www.nationalobserver.com/2026/09/17/o...

Danielle Smith is sowing the seeds of a democratic legitimacy crisis
Forget about banning American imports. In Alberta, the government is actively importing as many aspects of their political culture as possible. The latest: election denialism.

An ICE officer shot a Dominican man in the middle of an arrest in New York City today. Wounded, not killed, so expect the story to be gone by Friday. The DHS statement doesn’t say why a man being arrested needed a bullet. They NEVER do. Demand the name and the video. Now.

"Ripping out these protected bike lanes against the will of Toronto city council is a colossal waste of $48 million. The province’s own experts know it will not ease traffic congestion, it will put people’s lives at risk…” One of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen any politician do to any city.

We’ve always known, but now it’s confirmed, that Danielle Smith’s separatist friends, including a sitting UCP president, have been conspiring to hand over Alberta’s land, oil and water to Donald Trump. Albertans deserve better than this weak leadership that hurts us all. tgam.ca/3Txh5Gt

The elephant in the room
Alberta separatists have gone to D.C. offering fresh water and oil in exchange for American support – and Republican operatives have provided tactical assistance inside the province

The ultimate decision must rest with the person not the healthcare provider. There is a strong thread of ‘doctor knows best’ running through this article, and through the anti-MAID movement. I’m so proud of Canada’s law and find it far superior to those that retain a medical ‘permission’ model.

True, after losing all daddy’s $413M and going $3B in debt before going chapter 11 bankrupt; when no banks would loan to the shyster anymore. Trump would be a homeless popper if not for billion$ from Russian “banks”, managed by the State. He’s been. Kompromat paid employee of the Kremlin ever since.

We have forgotten what it's like to hold a child paralyzed with polio or comfort a mom who has lost her child from measles. It wasn’t that many generations ago. And I don‘t want to see us go backward. Vaccines protect children. They are our best defense against these terrible illnesses.

One thing is clear: elected Republicans are STILL all in on defending January 6th as nothing more than a “spirited debate.” One can safely assume that means they will also be in support of the NEXT insurrection. These MFers MUST be held accountable on November 3rd, 2026.
