Listening to Carney respond in French and English, from Japan, it strikes me that his French is really quite good. Good imho on Iran, on CUSMA, removing Andrew from succession. Cherry blossom time in Japan - good time to plan a trip there. www.youtube.com/live/SeiTMsQ...

Less than a year in and Carney looks like the most consequential PM Canada has ever had. Look at him out there, reshaping the world economically & politically. Who wouldn't want to cross the floor to join the Carney govt in this era? Especially considering how inconsequential the alternative is.

Leaders of Canadian political parties… this *is* what we need of you. We are stronger together. We are a small country and every single one of us matters. We can disagree - the energy of disagreement leads to better decisions - but not lose our humanity and respect for our humanity. #CdnPoli

I feel exactly the same way. I have felt concern building about public education in Alberta since the UCP dismantling process began in 2019, and am now putting that energy towards this petition. Albert used to have an amazing, world class public education system. We need that again.

If the UCP had bargained in good faith in the dispute with Alberta teachers, they could have defused the momentum of these petitions and recalls. Now, the UCP have likely turbocharged the resistance against them and their failure of a government. #ableg

Last day of front yard #ForeverCanadian signature collection. True Story - invited the polite separatist across the street to hang out with a beverage tonight to thank him for his patience with the extra traffic. He didn't convert, but we found non-political common ground & sense of community.

Separatists had four years to start a petition under the original 300k signature rules but couldn't manage it. If we ever come to a referendum, we should point out early and often that separatists just aren't very organized/competent and why would anyone sane want them in charge of anything?

Utter contempt and disrespect from Bruce McAllister. Cutting off the kid's mic and limiting his freedom of expression is one thing, but saying he should be spanked is a fireable offense from a supposedly neutral moderator. Bruce needs to be removed immediately.

The worst part about being politically news aware in Alberta is that we get to watch the Trump idiocracy and then switch to a local story about the Danielle Smith idiocracy, which frankly approaches circle levels of Venn Diagram overlap. #abpoli #cdnpoli #canada
