Edmonton: no hope coming!
Govt has admitted they only have a Plan to plan new beds...
7M ear marked in the budget for "blue prints" to start thinking about building the promised 1000 new beds in the Mis and GNH!
Total nothing burger
Expect >10 YEARS for any relief...
Imagine having SIX times the resource revenue and still ending up with a larger deficit than when Alberta's New Democrats were in power.
How embarrassing.
My daughter is getting married next weekend & I just finished her bouquet. Made on a silk hydrangea flower base covered with vintage brooches and earrings wired onto "stems" then finished off with wire ribbon. I even found a maple leaf for her and an American flag for him!! 😻🧶 #diywedding
We have lots up north as well. I have momma's who bring their new babies to eat my hostas in the front yard every year lol. People need to chill and try to co-exist
Could not be more proud of you, Team Canada.
You’re coming home with 21 hard-fought Olympic medals. Though what Canadians will remember most is how you wore the Maple Leaf: with pride, with grit, and with determination.
Literally something a sociopath in a bad movie would do. Unbelievable villains
JD Vance: "Our plan is very simple: if you storm a church or assault a federal officer, we're going to do everything we can to put you in prison."
*Storming the Capitol not included.
At least 10 Ukrainians have died from cold-related illness as Moscow’s assaults cut heat to thousands.
I was in the hospital over 4 months when I was treated for leukemia and it took me YEARS after to not wake up in the middle of the night lol.
More folks now stay in Alberta (vs shiftwork travel from other provs) and more stay to retire, meaning that the chronically undersized health care system & other social services that were subsidized by the rest of Canada, now need investment. You can’t demand immigration then yell about it.
As a bonus, the great John Lithgow reads the 20 points! 👏🏻💚👏🏻
From the comments:
"As of '25, Timothy Snyder will be on leave from Yale and will teach at the Univ of Toronto for '25-6. Jason Stanley and Marci Shore, profs at Yale, are moving to Toronto to teach. The Brain Drain begins.
Four health ministers.
Four agencies.
No one is clearly in charge.

Eby is right and every Canadian should demand action
The group is seeking a $500 B US line of credit from the U.S. Treasury to help bankroll the new country if they are successful in a referendum. An official with the U.S. State Department confirmed the meetings

Please sign and share the petition below with friends, family & colleagues across #Canada!
Several provinces (esp #Alberta #Ontario) are pushing for-profit healthcare in many areas, making access dependent on one’s financial status and in direct opposition to the Canada Healthcare Act.

It would not surprise me to see a UCP plan on paying for your own health care via volunteering at a casino yearly.
This is the horrifying part. We all hate TrumpCo. But he's just the symptom of the infection in the system.
To paraphrase Margaret Atwood…”men are afraid that women will laugh at them, women are afraid that men will kill them”
I received a message from an Alberta ED colleague that stopped me cold. He treated a very elderly pt - a retired Charge Nurse who began her career as WWII ended. She waited 8 hours in the WR for care. Her assessment of our current reality is devastating....

I've been asked by 3 media outlets in the last week to do interviews on the influenza season.
I still haven't seen our new CMOH, appointed Dec 18th, (or old one, for that matter. Or any public health official) in the media on this topic.
For the record, they are acutally paid, to do this.

And also, solar is the GOAT

My dad, 85 years old, suffering from the effects of a 2 year struggle with cancer, and chief of surgery at the Chinook Regional Hospital for decades, was moved from an already overcrowded space to an “overcapacity room” while he recovers from a stomach bleed and pneumonia. This is the room. 🧵🧵🧵
Excellent photos by Sebastian Hagan of the Monks' "Walk For Peace" yesterday as they passed through Atlanta suburbs.
The 2,300-mile pilgrimage spans 120 days, beginning in Texas and ending in DC.
Look how proud their pup, Aloka, is! Aloka was rescued from India & is already winning hearts. 🥰
