Also true for information about the Alberta Referendum. It is a shit show over there (X) and whomever is doing their responses about all this misinformation needs a bonus.

Coming in half way through a news cycle, seeing everyone referring to half a Scaramucci and knowing that means the new Press Secretary got fired.

The United States is an explicit ally of Russia in the Russia war on Ukraine. The US leadership undermines Ukrainian defenses because it want to do deals to help Russia and get diesel. The US is a direct traitorous adversary to all NATO, EU and western countries. youtu.be/XoAq7xIhCZs?...

Imagine if medicare worked like B.C.’s $10-a-day child care. One clinic in ten covered. Everyone else pays. Expansion frozen for three years. The premier settles up with a donation. We’d call that American-style. Guarantee child care too. deadfortaxreasons.wordpress.com/2026/10/15/u...

Nine years into a ten-year plan, 10 per cent of B.C. child care spaces are $10-a-day. Ottawa paid for 92 per cent of the growth. In February B.C. froze it for three years. The freeze runs past the date universality was due.

David Eby says his family "did not need that discount" on their $10-a-day child care spot. In a universal system there is no discount. There's the price. Nobody asks whether the premier's kids need a public school. deadfortaxreasons.wordpress.com/2026/10/15/u...

Listening to Premier Smith on CBC eyeopener and hearing her lie again. She claims that the Canada question was legally forced upon her by citizen initiative petitions. That is simply nonsense. The question is hers Q, not Lucaszuk's and not the APP's. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Just voted in the 10 Alberta referendums. Process was good, but voting itself felt more like filling in paperwork than usual, and it was followed by a colour matching game to get the 10 ballots into the correct 10 boxes. Advance polls open until Saturday, regular polls next Monday.

The advance poll in my area was busy, but not too busy. (As in, a line out the door, but a line that moved along.) Total process about 20 minutes. Good to see people turning out, and good to see Elections Alberta staff managing the tricky process well. #Alberta #yeg #cdnpoli

Imagine Polytechnique giving a room to gun rights advocates to hold an event on a 6th of December. It wouldn’t happen. Gunnies have, however, been free to go to the memorial in the park, hold their event, and be completely ignored by everyone because no one has time for losers.
