Heather Campbell

Not another good one, gone too soon. 🙏🏾

We just saw Michael Blake in @abtheatreprjcts.bsky.social's production of "King James" in February and March in Calgary.

He was a legend of his time, my generation.

Province refuses to release early results of its Alberta Next surveys Postmedia sought early replies to surveys around an Alberta pension plan and immigration but the province has refused to release the results

I was curious about the early results of some of the Alberta Next surveys so I filed a few access to info requests in June, and you're not going to believe this but...

Incredible Vicky Mboko!!!!! 👏🏾🎾🇨🇦

Allez Vicky!👏🏾🇨🇦🎾

"The epidemic of violence against women is so unacknowledged because cases like these are talked about individually, and often treated as though they are shocking aberrations rather than part of a pervasive pattern that operates at all levels of society." Thank you, @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social

Air Canada says she was being ‘loud, demanding and unruly.’ She says she was being stereotyped. Here’s what the human rights tribunal heard A case of alleged discrimination for ‘Flying while Black’ is a test of the Canadian Human Rights Act.

Feel like Canada's negotiating team is forfeiting selective human rights in the trade conversation & current economic trade war.

The USA is meant to be the land of the free & the home of the brave. This move isn't brave. What do they fear from the 2SLGBTQIA+ community? Authenticity? Glitter? 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Air Canada flight attendants vote in favour of strike, union says Air Canada flight attendants have voted in favour of strike action, according to a CUPE press release on Tuesday.

No. It's that Campbell bought it used to start with and keeps two other Tercels in the yard for parts.

As Emancipation Day weekend wraps up along with Toronto Caribbean Carnival, there is no better documentary to watch on @kanopy.com than "Becoming a Queen (2021)". 🎉 www.kanopy.com/en/calgarypl...

Next the Alberta government will be telling post-secondary institutions they've banned no.2 pencils & Scantron sheets for exams. Some fringe, right-wing conspiracy theorist who has the ear of Premier Danielle Smith failed an exam back in 1993 so it has to be the machine, not their academic ability.

Alberta cities face higher election costs this fall after province bans electronic vote counters | CBC News When the province passed Bill 20 last year, it banned the use of electronic vote tabulators. Now some cities are reporting election costs double or triple what they spent in 2021.

Seriously. Many municipalities have used machines since 1990s with increased efficiency, reduced cost, and greater reliability for elections. There are no real communities that distrust the vote counting machines. Just a few fringe, right-wing conspiracy theorists at work.

What we know about Ben and Jessica Mulroney's split - Toronto Life The end of a one-time Toronto power couple

I'm on holiday, and so is my brain. So, a little gossip! torontolife.com/city/what-we... as reported by @torontolifemag.bsky.social. Will Ben and Justin have a little moment of fellowship? They've both 3 kids, ex-wives, and dead fathers who were Canadian Prime Minister. They can talk for days.

🇨🇦 MBOKO FOR THE WIN

What a story 18-year-old Canadian Victoria Mboko is writing in Montreal.

She wins in straight sets in Montreal and is off to the National Bank Open semifinal. Outstanding.

Vicky Mboko! What?! Yes lil sis, yes. We got you! 🎾🇨🇦

How about Victoria Mboko.

The 18-year-old is fearless. And is up a set in the quarterfinal at the National Bank Open in Montreal. Fresh off of defeating #1-ranked Coco Gauff.

Brilliant stuff by the Canadian teenager. A great week for 18-year-old Canadian women in sports.

This New Yorker piece was published an entire year before I was born. I watched Sesame Street passionately. It had people on the show that looked like my parents (Gordon & Susan). When the Quebec government created Passe-Partout it was basically non-inclusive French Canadian Sesame Street.

A good innings for @stellarimington.bsky.social. Rest well sister... she was a model of transformative leadership.

Makes clean technology projects like the emissions monitoring tools and data generation by Canadian company GHGSat even more important and valuable.

The audition package for @abtheatreprjcts.bsky.social is due tomorrow, August 4. There are many, many dogs in my neighborhood. Only one has been encouraged to attend the open audition by me. The rest of them are too big, can't respond to simple commands, and would likely terrorize the other actors.

There aren't sufficient words to speak to the literal denial of decades of environmental science and the death of the EPA, but this is what will occur this week.

I wonder if the US President will discuss this with HM King Charles III at the state visit in September knowing the king's views?

Quote: "So Ms. Andia decided that her last act in a career of fighting for health care would be to make herself an example to help Colombians embrace a better way of dying."

I understand it. The party was over.

Victoria Mboko!!!! 🎾🇨🇦

Okay, fine. Shall we acknowledge the hypocrisy? How's all that work on human dignity going for you?
