Danielle Smith’s referendum is an evil plot to keep the separatist fire burning. On referendum day: Vote Option 1 on Question 10. Vote NO on Questions 1–9. It’s the only way to save Canada. To find referendum information and get involved with the campaign, visit savecanada.albertandp.ca.

What happened at Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc is beyond disturbing. A masked group arrived on the Nation’s land displaying hateful signs targeting the children who never came home from residential schools. There must be a full investigation to hold those responsible accountable.

Poilievre’s approval rating is now 2 points behind Trudeau’s approval rating at the time of his resignation. CPC is polling at sub-30%, with most polls at 28%. I’ve now accepted that the CPC has a humiliation kink. #cdnpoli

The Pentagon Papers case rejected a prior restraint aimed at specific documents claimed to pose national security risks. Anyone who argues "national security" are magic words justifying banning three news outlets should be laughed out of court and sanctioned.

Wake up, Canada. Just four companies control 80% of oilsands production. 60% of those companies' stock is owned by Americans. How is being an American petro colony in the "national interest", @mark-carney.bsky.social?

Let’s make sure we frame AI companies and their leaders as culprits. They’re active agents creating the conditions for AI risks. They’re not helpless. They’re lighting matches for the arsonists because they want rich people to get richer.

If you privatise the profits from fossil fuels, you can’t keep socialising the costs of the damage. Those who’ve profited should pay their fair share of the impacts. That’s why Spain’s push for an EU oil and gas tax to help fund climate adaptation is worth supporting. www.ft.com/content/86da...
