When Did the New Global War Begin? This past week, Russia escalated its incursions into European and North American airspace.

At what point will we realize that a new global war is underway? We need to understand the extreme danger that we are in so that we don't stumble further into the darkness.
My latest.

Canada has never experienced a government shutdown in the same manner as the United States.
In Canada, it’s treated as a loss of confidence in the government.
That typically triggers the fall of the government and either the formation of a new government or a federal election.

β€œKenney said he also knows that separatism is, and always has been, the rallying cry for a tiny core of flighty, discontented Albertans.

"We're talking about at most a few thousand people"

So…

She didn’t read the ministerial order either?

Who is even making the decisions in this government?

So many compelling stories. Canada means so much to so many.

Families drove to Edmonton from Camrose, Red Water and Okotoks to sign the #ForeverCanadian petition. One man, with a hospital wrist band, came straight from a day-surgery.

I feel humbled by the support.
