Love that the #DallasCowboys victory formation has a tip of the hat to Tom Landry with the O-line pre snap routine

Speaker Mike Johnson really ought to brush up on his Franz von Papen history.

Watching @dallascowboysnews.bsky.social and @lasvegasraiders.bsky.social on #MNF it’s always going to take some getting used to seeing anyone other than Tony Dorsett wearing #33 and Marcus Allen wearing
#32

Andrew Scheer’s best CPC talking point for an MP floor crossing and a resignation is “ this came to a head from these liberal tactics” Looks like Jenni Byrne has got some heavy lifting in the next couple of days. #CNDPOLI

Very well said.

The CPC taking on water. First a floor crossing, the Bloc votes supporting the Liberals defeating Conservatives budget motion and now the resignation of Matt Jeneroux. #CDNPOLI

A prairie sunrise. Edmonton Alberta.

Still feeling the sting from that #WorldSeries game seven. The good news, MLB pitchers and catchers report February 20th. 107 days and counting.

Read and share widely. Your fundamental human rights are at stake.

Travel day before game 6 of the #WorldSeries , feels like the right time to watch The Natural.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed it's the only thing that ever has. -Margaret Mead-

Danielle Smith - UCP invokes the notwithstanding clause, 1st time in AB since 2000, closure motions to end debate which all but guarantees passing. Then jumps on a plane for the Middle East. This is not democracy at its best. #ABLEG

Opinion: Alberta undermining public education — and democracy Any government that undermines ... the project of improving public school education in the face of difficulty is undermining ... democracy.

I have a very bad feeling about this...

Got off the plane and walked into a drug store in Ottawa and got my COVID vaccine in under 5 minutes. No line up. No appointment. No cost.

Was even asked if I wanted Moderna or Pfizer.

It’s unconscionable that we can’t get this same level of service in Alberta.

A true icon.

Feels like 1968

They asked the Pharaoh what made him a tyrant. He said, "no one stopped me". - Arabic Proverb

Can we compromise and say it’s a great province, however it’s run by a very dysfunctional government.

Finally a small victory - the UCP had to be dragged kicking and screaming, but they are going to at least cover COVID shots for healthcare workers.

It can be done friends, keep at it! #AbLeg

This Drumheller couple just received their Canadian citizenship. They love and appreciate Canada so, with their citizenship certificates in hand, they came to sign the #ForeverCanadian petition.

Thank you! You’re amazing Canadians!!!

Hit a home run - put your head down, drop the bat, run around the bases, because the name on the front is more - a lot more important than the name on the back.
