They are diverting attention away from him.

The money would be best spent for a fund to teach the children how to process the trauma and to provide ongoing support for the rest of their lives. Even if the building was torn down, the empty lot will trigger memories. Flashbacks are a given. How to process for living fearlessly is learned.

The Churchill quote hits the mark 100%.

I’m going to wait for the RCMP to release their report and/or an inquest to release their recommendations before I comment. Already speculation and false narratives abound. Let’s butt out and let the families and community grieve. Instead think about donating to their local charities.

Agree. We need to butt out until the inquest recommends solutions to prevent this. The families and community need time to grieve without having to read false narratives. Let’s be vigilant and report. This is a tragedy not click-bait.

Alberta Politics: UCP Support Rising, While Health Care and Separatism Drive Political Debate Leger's latest poll on Alberta politics shows support for the United Conservative Party is rising, despite strong opposition to separatism.

The real story here is that it’s a small vocal minority wanting separation. Oh! But that would be so boring and not good for clicks. Fear and divide sells better.

Best answer yet

It’s time to ignore what the orange man says and stop spreading his postings for likes, comments, hits. This is his mode of operation and it will only diminish when the world ignores his hateful and vile messages.

What %of Albertans are separatists? From an article I read recently it’s a very small minority. Yes or No?

I paid $8 for a small pop and a very small box of smarties at a movie theatre

I like European films or films from film festivals. Either their catalogue is small or they are not prioritizing. Joined one month ago and most likely will cancel in March.

Canada’s Conservatives Give Their Trump-Inspired Leader a Second Chance

Check out the NYT headline. I posted this as a guest article, hope it can be read by all.

Concept of community. Strong women nurturing and healing each other and their families. It’s the small acts of kindness that count. It’s being humble enough to ask for support.

It’s about consistency and short and frequent daily training in all environments for 18 months. I had a dog curious and energetic . My neighbours doubted that she could be trained. From age two to ten, she was a therapy visiting dog. Gone 20 years, memories of her antics makes me smile daily.

Let’s call it what it is: child abuse by the Trump administration.

Good one. I worked for a labour union in Northern Quebec and heard the most colourful swear words. There were some saints that I didn’t know existed.

Sweet Jesus that’s a perfect warning system.

It brightens my day, thanks for posting.

Available in many towns across North America. I could be out every night. What social media and online platforms have done is remove community. People think that posting is community and has impact. Social media used to gather for change and community has impact. Individual comments have no impact.

Canadian Press

Cancelled Amazon, buy locally, attended movies and concerts, free concerts and events, art gallery openings, Christmas festivals. Met old friends and made new ones, learned , expanded my network. That’s community. Looking forward to winter festival in February! Donated money saved to food bank.

They have few journalists on the ground, relying on Canada Press for real stories. Most are opinion pieces spreading fear and discord. Often their opinion writers are paid hacks from the conservative government, or publicists representing right wing or foreign entities. It’s so easy to spot.

For anyone who is without hope, power is in community as this post explains.
