Keep Dolly Parton in your heart tonight
If you pray include her in your prayers
Apparently she's having some serious health issues
She's always been a force for good
and a beacon of love & kindness in song
The world (and especially America) needs her more than ever
in these challenging times RS

Alberta bargaining committee serves 51,000 teachers with lockout notice | CBC News Employers have served Alberta teachers with a lockout notice hours after they walked off the job Monday.

"Our classrooms, hallways and school fields are empty, and not because we've given up on public education but because we care too much about it to stand by and watch it slowly erode and crumble from chronic underfunding.โ€

Potatoes were not a cash crop at that time, so the Irish were allowed to grow them for private consumption. Irish tenant farmers were not allowed to eat ANY of the cash crops that they grew for the absentee landlords. There was plenty of food. The "famine" was artificial and racist.

Canadaโ€™s climate contradictions come with economic risks Overinvesting in oil and gas is not just a problem for the climate โ€” it also poses serious risks to the Canadian economy.

What youโ€™ll never hear from PM @mark-carney.bsky.social nor Min Champagne :
โ€œWith global oil and gas demand projected to peak by the end of this decade, Canada is vulnerable and ill-prepared to adjust to the impending decline. Up to 66 per cent of future

Thousands of people with signs and placards in front of the Alberta Legislature in Edmonton

Thousands of people with signs and placards in front of the Alberta Legislature in Edmonton

On the eve of one of the largest demonstrations of labour power in Alberta's history, sights like 20,000 supporters rallying in front of the Legislature for teachers and their students is inspiring. Solidarity! #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Reminder that what is offensively called Ireland's "great famine" or "great hunger" was in fact a colonial genocide by England.
It's crazy that people still think it's because "Irish people literally just ate potatoes and whoops, there was a blight suddenly"...

Today is the National Day of Action for MMIWG2S+.

Indigenous women, girls, Two-Spirit, Trans, and 2SLGBTQ+ people continue to face systemic violence in Ontario and across Canada.

We need full implementation of the 231 Calls for Justice.

Is there something in the air in Alberta? They seem to have the highest APC (Assholes Per Capita) rate in Canada.
(Note: there are also, of course, many many good Albertans. I feel sorry for them.)
