CBC: "There’s another structural advantage of being in power. "The UCP could use its majority in the legislature to redraw riding boundaries to create new so-called 'rurban' ridings that include both rural and urban areas." That's gerrymandering and the tell-tale of a corrupt regiime.

I know nothing of the science of the plague and have no clue how worried everyone should be about whatever happened in Russia, but I’m pretty confident we shouldn’t be listening to X accounts that self-identify as “biological war” experts and POST IN CAPSLOCK while hawking their books

I'm actually pretty freaked out about this. An actual plague bioweapon makes nuclear war seem desirable, and Russia has been developing plague bioweapons for decades.

Oh wow In May, I reported Alberta separatists were using an app developed by GOP operatives with ties to US ambassador Pete Hoekstra @theglobeandmail.com now reports the same operatives flew to Calgary on a private jet for a secret meeting with separatist leaders: pressprogress.ca/alberta-sepa...
The pitch began with a prayer.
On an afternoon in late January, Mitch Sylvestre, the leader of Alberta's most prominent separatist organization, gathered with three of his lieutenants in a boardroom not far from the executive hangars at the Calgary International Airport, where private jets shuttle in and out of the city away from prying eyes.
It was a few hours before thousands of Albertans would gather near the city centre at a rally to launch the separatist campaign. But this meeting, convened behind closed doors a half-hour drive away, was invite only.
The Alberta Prosperity Project chose the location to accommodate its guests, Republican political strategists from Michigan who helped Donald Trump win the state in the 2024 U.S. presidential election.
The American delegation travelled to Calgary to sell them on software developed for Republicans to get out the vote - and how it could be used to wrench Alberta from Confederation.
"They were young Christians. Capable, intelligent people," Mr. Sylvestre said. "We prayed before we started the meeting.""There is no secrecy'
One of the key figures behind the Michigan software company has expressed strong views on Alberta.
On July 1, Mr. Born wrote on social media: "On this Canada Day, I hope this is the last year Alberta is part of Canada." He has also called for U.S. annexation of the province.
A hunter, outdoorsman and commercial real estate agent in Grand Rapids, Mr. Born is the stepson of J.C. Huizenga, a wealthy Republican donor and founder of National Heritage Academies, a network of conservative charter schools in the U.S.
Mr. Wierda is the nephew of Erik Prince, who founded and ran the private military contractor Blackwater before it was sold to investors in 2010, and Betsy DeVos, the education secretary during Mr. Trump's first term.

🧵(1/2) The Flying Bat Nebula (Sh 2-129). Hard target for what is hidden in it "the squid". I could not quite get it out. I need more data. Taken on 26-09-18 from my backyard 🔭 William Optics Red Cat 61 📷 ZWO 2600 Exposure: 2 hours and 15 minutes #Astrophotography #Space #DeepSpace #Astronomy
Sh 2-129 (also known as the Flying Bat Nebula), is a large emission nebula and H II region located in the constellation Cepheus. It is part of the Cepheus molecular cloud complex and belongs to the Cep OB2 association.[1][2][3][4] Reflection nebula vdB 140 can be seen near Sh 2-129.[5][6]

Within Sh 2-129 lies a bipolar outflow nebula named Ou 4 (also known as Squid Nebula).[7] The central star of Ou4 is believed to be the massive triple star system named HD 202214

Spending time this weekend getting ready for work next week? Not if you're Doug Ford! He started his summer break on June 9 and still has 4 weeks to go until he's back at Queen's Park. Wish you had 19 weeks of summer vacay? Should've become a deeply corrupt politician afraid of transparency, babes.
Doug Ford wears a blue apron and pretends to know how to barbecue. It's unclear which of his four homes he is at in this screenshot from a video. It could be his mom's home in Etobicoke that he inherited when she died. It could be his cottage on Fawn Lake. It's probably not one of his two condos in Hallandale, Florida.

Doug Ford. He's just like you and me, folks.
