Harry eats at least 2 regular sized carrots every day. He also likes them fresh out of the garden. Also eats the heavy white ends of celery and loves peppers. He seems fine….?

Knack also said he wants to stand his ground and it will be really interesting to see how much of a fight the mayor and the pro-infill council bloc puts up. Provincial law allows gov to call a recall vote on mayors councillors if cabinet feels they’re unable to do their jobs.

What “free market”? Every level of government is cutting taxes for corporations and dumping the excess on the working class. I’d LOVE a heat pump subsidy, bro. And solar, when they get to it. Sit down.

Once again, for the politicians, business leaders, and journalists still actively posting on X/Twitter: why? You're using a platform that's owned by someone who's trying to break up your country. The juice isn't worth the squeeze.

Here’s a gift link to the Globe and Mail investigation about American interference in the Alberta referendum, and the separatist operatives (one of whom is a UCP President) who went to the United States to offer them our water and oil. www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/64d9ad7...

Alberta separatists have gone to D.C. offering fresh water and oil in exchange for American support – and Republican operatives have provided tactical assistance inside the province

I love that the Canadian signs and flags are small and plentiful all over the province and the separation signs and flags are humongous and all piled together on one corner of a single landowner's property. The latter represents just how loud and obnoxious (and few) are the separatists.

Parking is also a real drain: very few municipal tax dollars for parking lots and spots. They also don't build neighbourhood character. They also aren't attractive. As someone who lives inner-small city, I'm annoyed that people who drive and park downtown don't care about the folks who LIVE downtown

How can ANYONE feel that FPTP is a legitimate representative election format??? This makes me want to quit caring at all about governance: the bigger parties will never let go of their chance to control the table with a third of the votes.

Ha! QC's hold-my-beer moment! In AB, the separatists had to do a back-room takeover of the govt and the premier they installed keeps lying about how she isn't a separatist.

why dont we just pass a law that says "at worst, for every $ of fossil fuel subsidy (direct or indirect) $1 must go towards green programs". this pipeline plus TMX would pay for a LOT of decarbonization.

You’re expecting these people to make sense? The government (that these same folks support) is willing to sell that water to Aussie coal miners for cheap (and give away millions in court when they can’t arrange it).

Stephen Harper has, as we've long awaited, weighed in against Alberta separatism. But man oh man, do I have to strongly quibble with him claiming sentiment was zero when he was PM. Here's a 2014 poll putting belief in separation at 23%, which is where it sits now. nationalpost.com/opinion/step...

As far as it goes, Pete Guthrie has a fair bit of integrity, it seems. And hell, if you can’t beat the cons, join ‘em: we can ALL be conservatives. It would be hella confusing for the standard AB voter. I’m here for it.

I know. I swear, the news outlets just keep recycling the same talking points. “Alberta will be better off.” “Separation COULD be costly”. Meanwhile, the news hasn’t really mentioned the lack of workers at EA or the current cost of running this dog-and-pony show.

I know we’re down to the wire on the Oct 19th referendum but the reporting on the “debate” is as annoying as the polls. CBC reported this morning that Kenney stated separation “could be costly”. If any of the separatists cared about public costs, they wouldn’t be the majority voters in the UCP.
