If you're not annoyed/angered/sickened by the smoke and people losing homes every year, how about the money? Fires cost us a bazillion dollars.

I am a proud Albertan AND a proud Canadian. I will not forget anyone who dares to try and make me choose between them.

Don't be fooled. Prime Minister Carney's rolodex includes the world's most influential big investors looking for projects to park their money, outside the U.S.

Poilievre's rolodex has Jordan Peterson, Danielle Smith, Ben Shapiro, Tucker Carlson and moving companies, in it.

I had to check if this was real. It is.

We have a US president lobbying our annexation, who's threatened economic force to do so. Unprecedented.

Today we're choosing who fights for this country. Who stands up for Canada & resists the right-wing populism that led our neighbour to this place. Vote.

And now, a note on Bill Owens who, until this past week, was the executive producer of 60 Minutes.

We’ll be back next week with another edition of 60 Minutes.

Judging by the number of employees that I recognize and have been working there for well over 15-20 yrs
I’d say they are doing well

Based on how many times my wife (who is a DRO) tells me about how many people ask why isn't Mark Carney or Pierre Poilievre on the ballot, I assume we would have an extremely interesting election outcome if ballots did not include political parties next to candidate's names.

It would be interesting

Was always a Costco fan. After I did a paper on Costco in a business course, I’ve been an even bigger fan

WOW!

Former UCP Minister who Danielle Smith barred from caucus for calling out the procurement issues in the "Corrupt Care" scandal doubled down today!

He tabled two recent news articles and AGAIN demanded transparency from the UCP on the scandal.

Walking around UCalgary campus a noon today and can hear the chatter from students talking about the election.
They’re paying attention. Let’s hope they vote
