1. Changing the question for the signatures collected is no longer the same referendum and invalidated the whole thing
2 courts ruled the whole IDEA of separatism was unconstitutional. No amount of rewording changes its unconstitutional foundation.
3 Dani is a lying liar

If you live in Alberta, you're paying more.

30 new or increased fees for services that most families already find it hard to afford.

Danielle Smith drags the judiciary deeper into her partisan mud slinging The Alberta Premier’s referendum is a direct threat to the proper functioning of our justice system

β€œthis referendum is not about constitutional reform. It is about politics. It is about blaming immigrants, blaming Ottawa, blaming judges, blaming anyone other than the government itself.”

For someone making comments about something intelligent to contribute perhaps you should understand the topic you’re commenting on before insulting others. Health care is not all provincial. It’s regulated federally.

I read the initial pitch for the show was Carter during the pandemic but they couldn’t get the rights. So might make sense if there’s an ER flare to it

It’s Carneys job to enforce federal law within provinces. There’s more to improving and maintaining our QOL and functioning economy than just trade. A healthy populace is a working populace.

And he isn’t the only option to run this place if he fails. You may not, but I have expectations 2/2

Dude you’re the one who responded to my initial post with childish sarcasm about PP when I was making a very serious comment about health care.

How’s this: the Canadian Health Act is FEDERAL jurisdiction and bill 11 in Alberta violates it. Not all areas of health care are provincial. 1/

Now can you go home and deal with the destruction of our universal health care system. It’s critical and will lose you your position if you let a 80 year social institution crumble on your watch.

Justice Department publishes some missing Epstein files related to Trump The Justice Department has published additional Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor after an NPR investigation found dozens of pages were withheld.

The Justice Department released *some* of the missing files, namely FBI interview notes from the woman alleging Epstein trafficked her as a young teen to Trump, Trump sexually assaulted her, and then she later endured a series of threats not to talk. Very dark reading www.npr.org/2026/03/05/n...

An Epstein victim’s rocky path from Hilton Head to the West Coast A woman who spent time in Hilton Head SC is at the center of a controversy over missing Justice Department Epstein documents. This is how her life turned out.

Had missed this @postandcourier.bsky.social reporting from last week. The details of the alleged Trump victim's life makes it crystal clear why she would not come forward--a "not ideal" victim who is sure to be attacked. Via @tasteaccountant.bsky.social www.postandcourier.com/news/special...

Iran is no Iraq – it’s much worse than that Trump, Hegseth and Rubio lurch from one poorly thought-out explanation for the US’s Iran war to another – but it isn’t convincing anyone, let alone the American public, writes Eric Lewis

Canada refused to give support to an illegal war in 2003. We faced enormous pressure to go along with the USA.
What we see today is a totally illegal war launched by two dangerous criminal leaders.
There is no NATO mission here. This is Operation Epstein.

The use of AI to identify targets (without subsequent specific human confirmation) should be considered a war crime.

And by that I don't mean "we should make a rule" I mean that straightforward application of the existing rules would tell you that it is a war crime.
