Albertans narrowly rejected permanent daylight saving time in a 2021 referendum. But today Premier Danielle Smith revealed the province *is* going ahead with it anyway. Opposition in the referendum was strongest in the biggest cities, while support was stronger in smaller towns and rural areas.
Calgary and Edmonton drove the the 'No' vote in Alberta's 2021 referendum on permanent daylight savings

The question — Do you want Alberta to adopt year-round Daylight Saving Time, which is summer hours, eliminating the need to change our clocks twice a year? — was narrowly defeated by a vote of 50.2% to 49.8% provincewide. But the vote breakdown varied by geography.

In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.

A reminder that the Kennedy Center is the literal and legal and congressional designated presidential memorial to JFK. This would be like Trump tearing down the Lincoln Memorial to build something “better.”

“Violence is never the answer!” and this is very true. But when politicians, the media and the courts prove increasingly useless, what other answers are left to people?

ICE is detaining children and sending them to Hell camps. Shindlers list comes to mind. ICE will not allow any inspection of the concentration camps. This is child abduction and child abuse! Anyone with children should imagine the terror ! The boy kept asking if he could just go home!!

IMPORTANT: The Dutch invested €595 million annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in public health care costs alone. That’s how smart governments do the math on investing in better mobility. Let’s be clear— it wastes public money to NOT do it. #CityMakingMath HT @modacitylife.com

When you leave a tip it doesn't necessarily go to the workers who served you. That's because Alberta is one of the only provinces that has no laws protecting workers’ tips. It's great to see business owners and people in the industry speaking in support of my private members Bill 210!

NEW: White House says the arrest and deportation of student activist & legal US resident, Mahmoud Khalil, is a blueprint for more. The final line here is chilling. The White House specifically says Khalil was not breaking the law. No evidence, no due process, no crime. He was just disappeared.
Indeed, a White House official told The Free Press that the basis for targeting Khalil is being used as a blueprint for investigations against other students.

Khalil is a "threat to the foreign policy and national security interests of the United States," said the official, noting that this calculation was the driving force behind the arrest. "The allegation here is not that he was breaking the law," said the official.

“He falsely claimed Canada is "ONE OF THE HIGHEST TARIFFING NATIONS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD." Until Trump launched his trade war, most Canada-U.S. trade was entirely tariff-free under the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement the president himself negotiated and signed in his first term.“

I'm sorry, but "they took over the whole federal payments system, fired the career staff, and won't let anybody see what they're doing" is not a situation in which you wait for more information. It's a situation in which you assume the worst. There's no explanation for it other than rampant crimes.
