Justin Ling: The worst thing Mark Carney could do is make a deal with Trump Why should Canada follow the EU and others down the path to a bad deal?

Now that it's clear Trump's 'deals' are little more than shakedowns, it's time to say "no deal." www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Don't forget the 500+ measel cases in Alberta, the Smith government has to also distract everyone from that.

Girl you know it's true.

‘Extremely graphic’ sexual content found in books at K-9 schools, province says Books found in some school libraries in Calgary and Edmonton had “explicit sexual content,” said the provincial government.

I don't know the other three books on the list, but Alison Bechdel's brilliant, poignant graphic novel Fun Home is a modern classic. Is it appropriate for elementary students? Well, no. But for a sensitive high school student? Absolutely. @AlisonBechdel is a legend. calgaryherald.com/news/local-n...

Song Exploder Tears for Fears is a duo formed in 1981 in Bath, England by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith. They’ve sold over 30 million albums, starting with their first, The Hurting, which went to number one in the ...

A great episode of Song Exploder covering what I consider one of the best songs from the '80s, Tears for Fears' "Everybody Wants to Re the World."

The album this song is from, Songs From the Big Chair, was the first album I ever bought. It has stuck with me ever since.

When the leader of the Parti Québécois is defending and agreeing with your actions, it is a clear sign Smith's actions are not in line with the national or the majority of Albertans' interest.

"If we are going to live in a world that can't forget, we need to start learning how to forgive."

The elections rules say that the current MP officially can't resign until 30 days after being elected (May 30). Then PM Carney can call the by-election 11 days later (June 8). Finally, the shortest a by-election can be is 36 days (July 14).

The soonest Poilievere can be an MP is Monday, July 14.
