They preach "Alberta First" while promising the Americans our water, oil, and land. I joined Edmonton's Mayor Andrew Knack on CBC's Power & Politics to call out the hypocrisy of the Alberta separatist movement. You don’t defend Alberta by putting our province up for sale to the United States.

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.

I was vegetarian for about 20y and still mostly veg. But I have a disease and am anemic for a little treat. And so staying vegetarian wasn’t an option. But holier-than-though assholes are not what I’m here for.

I'm curious why you say this Tracy Arm event was so much smaller than at Lituya. The runup elevations around the fjord are similar and in fact, Tracy might be more impressive.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

Carney tells Canadians “we have to do this” (??) because there’s an energy crisis on three fronts. One of those fronts, he says, is climate change. Which is why we need………a new crude oil pipeline???????

"The Alberta govt & the federally owned Trans Mountain Corporation would each own 45% of the pipeline, w/ the Calgary-based Pembina Pipeline Corporation owning 10%. Carney said that Indigenous communities will be offered a minimum 10& ownership stake in the project." Ummm...that's not great mathing

Nepal has been hit with multiple large landslides in the last few days, likely triggered by heavy rains. Here is *one* that affected Chame, however, there are lots of others in the region, and so hard to know which is the one that resulted in 56 deaths (see link below).
