It strikes me that one separatist’s offer to sell water to US in exchange for state recognition makes vanishingly little sense in Alberta, a land that’s so water scarce, especially within several hundred km of the border.

seeing conservative men debate how to dress online is very funny. can't dress up or wear interesting casualwear bc you've made any visible interest in dress to be a sign of homosexuality. but you feel the need to dress better bc you've linked dress to respectability. a prison of your own making.

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

According to @theglobeandmail.com, the email account used by "Daniel Robson" was used to register a Moroccan Microsoft account earlier this year The fake journalist's articles published in Canada also "praised Morocco's King Mohammed VI" and encouraged closer ties between Canada and Morocco
Several of the Robson articles published in Canada also praised Morocco's King Mohammed VI and urged Canada to form a security partnership with the African country.

The Globe identified a link between Morocco and Mr. Robson. According to a digital research tool, Mr. Robson's e-mail address was used to register a Moroccan Microsoft account in March, 2026. That account was last active in early September, records show.

Joe, pouring maple syrup on himself: “CA-NA-DA! CA-NA-DA!”

Panel 3

Let this sink in. Cornell University refused to refund Jane Doe's tuition the semester she was raped. Without this money, she could not transfer to another school. Essentially, she was forced to stay on campus where she saw those seven rapists frequently. Eventually she dropped out of college.

In their brief time in power, the NDP proved that Alberta can be a thriving market for renewable energy. The tech has only improved since then. There's no other choice for my vote, but as long as they insist on being a shill for O&G, they're not getting a penny from me.
