Trump has removed President Bidenโ€™s portrait at the White House and replaced it with a portrait of an autopen.

Trump is a petty, jealous, childish, and hateful person.

Iโ€™m sharing a portrait of President Biden as a sign of respect and support.

Itโ€™s time to build the major projects that will move us from reliance to resilience, strengthen our economy, and create high-paying careers across the country.

Weโ€™re building major projects sustainably, in partnership with Indigenous peoples, in solidarity with union workers, and we are building Canadian โ€“ with Canadian materials and technology.

Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. Itโ€™s erasure of history and itโ€™s straight-up racism.

Alberta's role in Canada's loss of measles elimination status embarrassing, former chief medical officer says | CBC News The latest federal data shows Alberta accounts for 38 per cent of Canadaโ€™s cases.

โ€œA lot of people worked for a long time to achieve that measles elimination status, and to lose it in one year because of a failure of government action โ€ฆ for a disease thatโ€™s totally preventable, it just makes me sad."

-Dr. James Talbot, former CMOH for Alberta.

A poem about fleeting love and the hollowness left behind when something burns bright but never roots itself. Itโ€™s about how intensity canโ€™t replace depth.

Quick and Easy
A moment passed, and here we areโ€”
two hearts that burn, then fade too fast.
We chase the thrill, we name the star,
but nothing real was made to last.

We speak our truths, then walk away,
like promises that never stayed.
The rush is sweet, but hard to say
what parts of us were truly swayed.

Itโ€™s easy now, but hard to see
what hides beneath the hollow grin.
We play the gameโ€”pretend to be
unchanged by where itโ€™s been.

Quick and easyโ€”still it stings,
this fleeting love that never clings.

Written for the quiet ones who endure unseen battles. Itโ€™s about the strength inside those who appear calm but are fighting to hold themselves together.

A Man Who is Not
A man who is not broken, but betrayed,
his soul worn thin by scars unseen.
He stands in silence, half-afraidโ€”
a shadow of the might heโ€™s been.

A man who is not hollow, but withered,
his spirit crushed beneath its weight.
He speaks no words, though every shiverโ€™d
thought defies the hand of fate.

A man who is not lost, but bound,
his heart a garden, overgrown.
He walks where only echoes sound,
and grief has made its home.

A man who is not what eyes believeโ€”
a quiet truth the night wonโ€™t leave.

A reminder for anyone feeling isolated or unseen. This oneโ€™s about quiet companionship, and the unseen threads that connect us through pain and healing.

Remember That You Are Not Alone
When shadows fall and hope feels far,
rememberโ€”youโ€™re not on your own.
The world may shift, but still you are
a voice that trembles, not unknown.

In darkest hours when hearts despair,
someone is near, though out of sight.
A presence breathes within the air,
whispering peace into the night.

The weight you carry doesnโ€™t bind
your spirit down, though it may try.
For every tear, thereโ€™s someone kind
who sees your pain, who wonโ€™t deny.

So when you falter, pause, and knowโ€”
youโ€™re never lost; youโ€™ll always grow.

This poem is about the erosion of love and the quiet acceptance that follows. Itโ€™s not about blameโ€”itโ€™s about what remains when the promises are gone.

Oaths We Break
We swore to stay, to never drift apart,
yet here we standโ€”two ghosts, estranged.
The vows once carved so deep in heart
now splinter, cold, and rearranged.

We promised trust, but trust is ghost,
a shadow slipping through our hands.
Each word we spoke now haunts the most,
unmoored from what it understands.

We swore to love through storm and trial,
but storms can tear what roots canโ€™t save.
The love we held now fades to mildโ€”
a dying flame we couldnโ€™t brave.

Oaths once sacredโ€”softly broke,
like smoke that rises, lost in hope.

Forgiveness is the hardest thing we ever do.
If you can, do itโ€”but never forget.
Hate rots the soul faster than grief.
Whatever weโ€™ve done, I forgive you.
And I hope, somewhere in the quiet, you forgive me too. Without further ado hereโ€™s some new poems. ๐Ÿ’™ #poetry #blueskypoets #writingcommunity

Stephen Harper and the Cons ran a massive deficit in 2009 in response to the financial crisis. Canadians were on board.

Why are Poilievre's MAGA CONS in opposition to running a deficit to care for Canadians and the economy? #cdnpoli
