A color photograph of Margaret Atwood, an older woman with curly gray hair, wearing a dark jacket and a colorful floral scarf with shades of orange, pink, and green. She is sitting outdoors against a blurred background of a brick wall and greenery, with a bicycle partially visible.
Happy birthday to Margaret Atwood, born on this day in Ottawa in 1939!
One of our greatest writers, she has written 18 books of poetry, 18 novels, 11 books of nonfiction and nine short story collections. She has won the Governor General's Award twice and has 27 honorary degrees.

WOW.
We know what they think of us, but to actually hear them say it out loud is atrocious.

Without some amazing teachers throughout the years I would have NEVER become a doctor.
Without the amazing PUBLIC education system I wouldn't be where I am today (my family could NOT have afforded private eductation streams).
I stand with our teachers and for our future students!

The reality is that one provinceโs refusal to implement an international agreement may have major impacts on other provinces that support implementation, so Smithโs position isnโt so much an attack on Ottawa as it is an attack on other provinces & territories. #abpoli #cdnpoli

Someone should ask the Premier to declare that she has a vagina at the next news conference. Ridiculous? Distasteful? An invasion of privacy? Absolutely. But it's the same thing that they're doing to our kids. This is what actual grooming looks like.

Why was a hate speaker that is not even a Canadian citizen permitted inside the Alberta legislature to lead an informal worship service at 11:35 PM?
There's nothing about this that seems remotely okay.

A rectangular poster with a black-and-yellow hazard stripe border contains the following text in black letters on a beige and orange background:
Top section, beige background:
"QUESTION
Is Universal Canadian Healthcare still available in Alberta?"
Middle section, grey background:
"The primary goal of Canadian healthcare is to provide reasonable access to services without financial barriers.
The system is guided by five principles:
โข Public Admin: Run by a public, non-profit authority.
โข Comprehensiveness: Covers all medically necessary hospital and doctor services.
โข Universality: All provincial residents are entitled to coverage.
โข Portability: Coverage is maintained when you travel or move within Canada.
โข Accessibility: Everyone has reasonable access to services without financial barriers."
Lower section, light yellow background:
"Actions taken by Premier Danielle Smith and Health Minister Adriana LaGrange have made access to COVID-19 vaccinations extremely difficult for many vulnerable people, including seniors, families, and healthcare workers.
This has challenged the principle of accessibility and they have threatened to charge for access."
Bottom section, orange background:
"If you believe this is unacceptable, tell Premier Danielle Smith and Health Minister Adriana LaGrange."
โ Is universal healthcare still available in Alberta?
The Canada Health Act promises access without financial barriers. Recent provincial actions on COVID-19 vaccines risk violating that principle. Speak up to Premier Smith & Minister LaGrange. #cdnpoli #ABleg #ABpoli
