Never take seriously those who ridicule low income people for having a smartphone or laptop.
“If they’re so poor how did they buy an iPhone???”
Because they’re trying to escape poverty, not the 1700s, genius. If you think basic tech access is luxury, survive a month without it.

Greeter: That’s fine. Have a nice time.

A marigold for Dia de los Muertos. In memory of all we have lost, but who are never forgotten.

Another year with zero trick-or-treaters at my house.
What am I doing wrong?
Dr Markland was kind to me and especially when our daughter died. He was truly a very rare human being. He worked in ICU at an Edmonton Hospital. Winter was hardest for him as homeless people came in with severe damage to their legs from the cold. Lots of amputations. He rode a bike every day.

31.10.2025 22:53 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0The Court is right that judges must retain discretion in order to avoid grossly disproportionate sentences - that is evident.
But the Court is too restrictive of Parliament’s role —
I understand unique circumstances. The way they came to this and the way it was communicated leaves little room for sensible nuance.
31.10.2025 22:42 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0The Supreme Court is wrong.
Maybe the decision makes sense on paper, but in reality there aren’t many crimes as repugnant, damaging, and worthy of the heavy hammer of justice.
Never doubt that strongly worded letters while laying down in needless defeat can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that hasn’t.

Watching the province slander teachers & mislead folks is really familiar. Health, cities, etc.
They’ve spent the past 4yrs using their mouthpieces - & deliberately underfunding - to spin a narrative that things are broken (sound familiar?)
We all need to stand up TOGETHER

If those in charge can’t handle the stress of a grade 12 student asking a rational and reasonable question - then they might want to take a serious look at their own fragility.
And then ask themselves if they are fit to run a government.
Absolutely mortifying and embarrassing for our province.
Why don’t we have roads and trains and construction like Tokyo?
Canada’s population: 41m
Tokyo’s population: 37m
Edmonton’s population: 1.2m
Economies of scale and density of the economy matter.

Does this sound bonkers, or is it just math?
Better services, lower taxes, and the actual MECHANICS of how to do it? Whaaaat?
It’s true. Math is cool, actually.
