Every time a woman runs for president I hear that she’s too emotional and unstable to make wartime decisions, unlike the men in charge who make really reasonable decisions like bombing kids to death, starting water wars, and poisoning the entire planet

IMO
The reality of Alberta separation is wildly different than the picture painted by the separatists
The land mass of Alberta won't be the same after separations
Canada owns -
Banff
Jasper
Waterton
Elk Island
& Wood Buffalo
& FN own huge parts of Alberta & have a binding international treaty

This is one of the biggest peeves I have with urban sprawl. If developers and homeowners in the neighbourhoods outside the Henday were forced to pay (either in home price or taxes) fair value for what costs the city absorbs downtown living would be much more attractive financially.

Hard not to look at the top and bottom of this chart as a Canadian and feel pity and fear for our nearest neighbour and a sense of quiet pride for ourselves. The societal and political ramifications of these attitudes are deeply interesting.

Thread.
The other thing separatists ignore is the sheer cost of standing up a bureaucracy to replace what the federal government does currently (not only replacing the CRA, but also things like regulating pharmaceuticals and medical devices). Things you can't really function without.

In case you’re just waking up, the U.S. has teamed up with Israel overnight to start an illegal war of regime change, apparently on a presidential whim with no involvement of Congress, and they are already committing horrific atrocities.

Jen Gerson: Sure, put all of the questions on the ballot. Why not? What could go wrong? Danielle Smith's planned referendum isn't just dumb, it's incredibly risky.

Sometimes I read Jen Gersen. Sometimes I disagree. This time she nails it.

We have tried absolutely nothing and it hasn't worked so now the only obvious solution here is to blame others from other places.

Stressful morning. A homeless young mom with small children fled abuse. Shelters are full. After my complaint to the Minister’s office, Income Support called her and said no more hotel extensions. If true, tomorrow two young kids could be on the street—in this weather!

Throwback to Pam Bondi’s campaign ad for Florida AG:

“I’ll fight to put human trafficking monsters where they belong. Behind bars.”

The ad aged. The internet remembers.
