She is not a serious person. She’s not a leader. She’s a talk-show host. Albertans need to wake up to her self-serving manipulation.

Good insight into how “normal” people can get drawn into authoritarian. Seems particularly relevant in our current political environment. Overall enjoyable read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of five.

Read the Mitford Affair by Marie Benedict. Fictional account of a real British aristocrat family, some members with a misguided belief in fascism and a personal connection with Nazism. Great historical context and fraught personal family dynamics which ring true in our current political environment.

WATCH: Trump, EPA's Zeldin announce end of scientific basis for U.S. action on climate change The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressiv...

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

💬 Ukraine's Vladyslav Heraskevych on the disqualification over the memorial helmet: "I have no regrets... There are things more important than medals."

Zelenskyy: 13 Russians at Olympics deserve to be disqualified, not Ukraine's Heraskevych Volodymyr Zelenskyy has criticised the IOC for disqualifying skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych for wearing a helmet featuring portraits of Ukrainian athletes killed during the war.

Rep. Stansbury: “The United States government is engaged in an active cover-up of the largest sex trafficking scandal and influence peddling scandal in the history of the United States, and Donald Trump is right at the center of it.”

Well said.

Looked like Canadian athletes were wearing sleeping bags at the opening ceremonies. No wonder Lululemon stock is in the tank. #2026WinterOlympics

I'm unsubscribing from something every day.

Respect.

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

Big tech supports fascists. #boycott

If you want to FINALLY watch Scott Bessent get pinned down on specifics about the illegal money laundering operation being conducted by the Trump admin from someone who knows WTF he’s talking about, this clip is your chance. Bessent gets destroyed.

CEOs of big tech companies who the Trump administration listens to have decided to ignore the slow descent into fascism. www.resistandunsubscribe.com

In case you thought Bessent wasn’t being completely honest, here’s a picture of him, with his billboard, at a protest.

Impressive!

**$900 MILLION** Alberta taxpayer dollars spent by Order in Council!

No legislative debates No meetings. No press conferences. I just signed my name and *POOF* that money is sent to my friends in the oil & gas industry!

Don’t mistake a few loud aggrieved dupes and a feckless Premier, who needs their votes to stay in power, for strong support.

As an Albertan, and more importantly, a Canadian, I’m not ok with this.

Given the state of the world, both things can be true.

No Kings is projected on to a mountainside above the town’s lights

Davos, Switzerland, the World Economic Forum.

This speech captures the current state of the world exactly.

Joseph and I went to the Condors - Wranglers game this afternoon. Pretty tight checking affair. Tomkins looked great in the Condors’ net. Good to see some almost Oilers in person. Jones, Hutson, Hamblin, Jarventie and Stillman stood out to me. Final score 1-0 Bakersfield. Jones with the O/T winner.

Two weeks late but still a way better listen than the last (or any) West of Centre podcast.
Shannon Phillips’ eulogy for the Notwithstanding Clause choked me up and her breathy delivery on Trudeau’s tribute cracked me up. Carter deserves kudos too for casting PP as Icarus. Well done Strategists!

You left out the part where 50,000 homes in this city didn’t even have water meters 15 years ago. The management of our water system seemed to follow the Alberta Advantage philosophy, high service expectations, low taxes, let our kids pay for it.
