A father called in to ask why his disabled son was getting the $200 clawed back.

Smith's response?

The reason for that subsidy is we lobbied the feds to cost share! Sides, we don't want disabled people moving to Alberta to take advantage of us!

TigerCats vs Alouettes is not exactly a classic so far.

Moreover, "having no choice" during the election provides zero excuse for accepting whatever the lesser evil does once elected. If anything, it means people should push back even harder against problematic policy decisions now.

They thought the rise of fascism was other countries problem.

If it wasn’t for the guy that rubber stamped that deal bankrupting Mattel, O’Leary would be broke. The way he was instantly out, and turned quiet and red faced whenever anyone had a toy, or board game, on Dragon’s Den shows he knows he screwed them over.

*1995 damn it.

If Elon Musk gave away 20% of his network, which is about $170 billion or so, he’d still be the second richest man. This kind of wealth is so fucking obscene.

Indigenous Veteran's Day started in 1991 after a group of Mohawk Vets attempted to lay a wreath at the National Rememberance Day ceremony & were denied. Indigenous Vets were not allowed to participate in the national ceremony until 2995.

I don't know why so many are slagging Carney's budget after all you can get a sweet tax break on the purchase of your luxury yacht

If you’re claiming the Cowichan BC Supreme Court decision impacts property rights, you’re misinformed. If you’re calling it a “native land grab”, you’re a racist.

Are you using Darwin to imply Indigenous people have no right to the land?
Aboriginal means the earliest known inhabitants of a place & applies to those inhabitants & their descendants.

Hi Bluesky 👋

Small life update: I’m at the centre of a multimillion dollar lawsuit in Alberta launched by a failed candidate for Jason Kenney’s UCP

It may be the longest and most expensive media trial in Canadian history

I’m ready to go public about it and I want to share more details with you 🧵

Europeans recognize Zohran Mamdani’s supposedly radical policies as ‘normal’ Critics of New York City’s mayor-elect have said his pledges of free bus service and universal childcare are unrealistic, but in Europe it’s a given

"Europeans recognize his vision about free public transit and universal childcare. We expect our governments to make these kinds of services accessible to all of us,” said Verbeek. “We pay higher taxes and get civilized societies in return."

We may not like it but the role of the opposition is to criticize government activity, hold the government accountable, propose improvements and present itself to the public as an alternative to the party in office.

Here's the biggest PSE story you haven't heard yet: the Canada Student Grant for low-income students is being cut from $4200/year to $3000/year as of next August. It's implicit in the budget tables but the government is too chickenshit to actually say so directly.

I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

If his friends don’t harass him for the rest of his life over being taken down by a sandwich, I’ll be really disappointed.

He doesn't seem too happy with the offensive coach, Jason Hogan.

I don't know about you but heat & electricity made my life better off in the long run.
