When Grammy-winning musician Rhiannon Giddens begins playing “Old Corn Liquor,” a traditional Black American folk tune, acclaimed Chinese pipa virtuoso Wu Man recognizes similarities to Chinese pentatonic music and spontaneously joins in. The joy on their faces says it all.

Cities need to start refusing to comply. Do what Dani does - strike a Fair Deal commission, start publicizing how badly the province treats cities, start saying you want a sovereign Calgary in a United Alberta, refuse to comply with things you don't like and dare them to oppose you.

That and the both siders. My former MLA today is writing about how "both sides" should be respected. Yeah, no. I am not in the mood to humour people who have jumped from conspiracy to conspiracy for the last 6 ish years in the newest tantrum. Just no.

“so while Alberta deserves better, separation is not necessarily the best way to get there." Apparently we in Alberta deserve better than being the richest per capita province in Canada. What we really deserve is a better provincial government.

It's fascinating how our society makes very little space for mourning our personal losses. We live in a very death-phobic culture. The Victorians were on to something with mourning dress. It signalled to others you were bereaved. Now, we're expected to get over a death and keep producing value. 1/4

Finally, a large group of people have the guts to stand up to capitalist vultures extracting all that is good and joyful from life! 👏👏👏 European countries are boycotting FIFA competitions including the World Cup due to corruption. ✊
Statement on behalf of UEFA and its
55 National Associations
UEFA and its national associations will not participate in FIFA competitions.
UEFA and its 55 member associations stand as one.
We unanimously and unequivocally reject FIFA's proposal to transfer ownership interests in the World Cup and other FIFA competitions to private investors.
The World Cup cannot be treated as an investment product. It is one of football's greatest sporting legacies. It has been built over generations by players, national teams and supporters across every continent. No part of it should ever be surrendered to private investors. The World Cup is not for sale.As a result of today's discussion, no UEFA national teams will participate in any FIFA competition for so long as these proposals remain alive, unless this proposal has been abandoned in its entirety and binding assurances have been given that FIFA will never again open its governance or competitions to private ownership.
Nobody should be in any doubt: UEFA and its national associations will oppose these plans with absolute determination.
There are moments when institutions are judged not by what they are prepared to accept, but by what they refuse to compromise. This is one of those moments.
Some things are simply too important to sell. The FIFA World Cup belongs to football. It always will. And so long as Europe has a voice, it will never be for sale.The moment external investors acquire ownership interests in
FIFA competitions, football changes forever. Commercial return becomes a permanent obligation. Investor expectations become a daily pressure. From that moment onwards, every decision on the international calendar, every decision on competition formats and every decision shaping the future of football is no longer driven by what best serves the game, but by what best serves shareholders.
This model has no place in world football. Football's future cannot be dictated by the expectations of those whose first duty is to maximise financial return. Nor can the interests of national associations, leagues, clubs, players and supporters become subordinate to investor returns. Football cannot mortgage its future for financial gain.
Europe's position is clear. We will never lend this model our legitimacy. No one has the moral authority to sell what they merely hold in trust for the next generation.It is both irresponsible and indefensible that a proposal of such significance for football was conceived in secret and brought to the brink of approval without any meaningful consultation with those entrusted with stewarding the game.
This is not merely a profound failure of leadership, but an abdication of FIFA's duty as the custodian of world football.
National associations around the world are now presented with an ultimatum: accept the irreversible capture of football's greatest competitions or bear the consequences.
This is not a "democratic decision", but governance byintimidation - an act of coercion unworthy of an institution entrusted with the stewardship of the global game.
But our opposition goes far beyond process.

According to their own rudimentary projections, separatists will need to renegotiate all of the economic ties with the rest of Canada and its trading partners in order to remain a functioning state. From scratch. As a lone party vs many. Without making a single concession. This is their "plan."
