larshansenleduc Thanks for the endorsement, Ryan!

"Lars Hansen is, as a leader, beyond comparison. I have never in my life met someone more suited to this role. He stands alone in this community as possessing the intelligence, vision, and experience required to deliver the good governance our citizens need and deserve. I have seen that his sole motivation is the delivery of excellence in service to others. There is no one better."

And thank you for including the verses we didn’t learn in school:

β€œIn the squares of the city, in the shadow of the steeple,
By the relief office I seen my people;
As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking
Is this land made for you and me?”

My favourite part of the evening was being led in an old time song-along of Woody Guthrie’s hymn to freedom, β€œThis Land Is Your Land,” (using the Canadian refrain). Tom Morello is amongst history’s greatest bards of socialism and liberation.

Thank you @tommorelloofficial.bsky.social for your performance in Edmonton last night. Your message of hope and solidarity is both timely and urgent, and is just what is required in this moment, both in Alberta and worldwide.

I would like to thank the Leduc Arts Foundry for having their summer student Gian do this painting of the grain elevator (in progress). When it is done it will hang outside on the chain link fence. It’s so great to have art in our community.

2025 marks 100 years since William Davis was killed, sparking changes in coal mining Coal mining communities are remembering William Davis on the 100th anniversary of his death. The father of 10 was killed on June 11, 1925, during a strike in Cape Breton over better wages and working ...

One hundred years ago today Bill Davis was murdered by the coal company and the government. His death and the working class struggle paved the way for better labour rights in Canada, but we should not rest until capitalism itself is abolished. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...
