And Alberta posted a couple of days ago about sending 700 to BC and ON. Not sure exactly where though

Laura Finnegan @lfinnegal.bsky.social · 11/08/2026
They just said on the news they're sending 200 (I think?) from Alberta.

Woke up to the news about Glen Hansard. So many memories from home. The endless Valentines gig in Whelans, front row at Witness, the acoustic gig in Cork? Galway? where he wondered why we were at his gig when Van Morrison was playing down the road.

Glen Hansard: A powerhouse of self-belief and passion
Back in Dublin's scuzzy early nineties music scene, nobody was quite sure what to make of Glen Hansard.

Javier and Landon tell us about what made a shift memorable: experiencing the hospitality of Swan River First Nation, 6 am swims in Lesser Slave Lake and, inevitably, the woes of rough roads. friresearch.ca/news/data-by...

They are also conveniently ignoring Ireland's current focus on moving away from a two-tier system and reducing private healthcare...

And theyre all planted so close together. Like a box of matches.

The fact that its spread to a coillte forest, where Sitka spruce are planted in rows and are all exactly the same age, isn't great... but might provide more data on the pro side for the value of heterogeneous forests...

Fyi immigrants already pay a reasonable fee to access healthcare and education. They're called taxes

Laura Finnegan @lfinnegal.bsky.social · 24/04/2026
But as an immigrant who is now a citizen. At least the cards are clearly on the table re whether the provincial government is interested in ever getting my vote

Laura Finnegan @lfinnegal.bsky.social · 24/04/2026
As an immigrant in Alberta I'm feeling all the warm and fuzzies right now from the provincial govt. Nice to hear what they think of me and all the other immigrants contributing to Albertas economy (and paying taxes).

Laura Finnegan @lfinnegal.bsky.social · 19/04/2026
So really leaning into taxation without representation

Nooo. We need a fire station one. And at least half the episodes they're just sleeping waiting for a call (I know that this rarely happens, but it does happen. That or they watch deadliest catch. Pers. comm. my dad)
