Amazing turnout at our #ForeverCanadian pop-up in Drumheller. Volunteers, thank you for organizing this event. The band singing ”Four Strong Winds” and the spontaneous rendition of ”O’Canada” were really moving. 200 lawn signs given out in a couple of hours.
If you want a Forever Canadian lawn sign you can find a pickup location at the link below I thought I'd be the only person in our neighborhood to have one, then two of my neighbors got them too #ableg #abpoli #Alberta www.forever-canadian.ca/en/lawn-signs

I donated to @albertasvoice.ca so that these signs could be put up. You could too. let's win this, for Canada. And for ourselves. albertasvoice.ca/donate
💯 An election - now. Referenda are not democracy at work, they are pandering, stupid expensive ways to make opinion polls that spin your actions to put you in a good light. Our only hope of a course correction is for Albertans to show her that we are more decent and welcoming than she thinks we are.
Monsanto wanted its growth hormone in every glass of Canadian milk. One government scientist stood in the way and his own bosses spent 14 years trying to destroy him for it. His name was Dr. Shiv Chopra. Canadians owe him a lot. Pt 1

"Did (Albertans) vote for this last provincial election? No, they didn't, it wasn't on the ballot paper, it wasn't in the mandates or platforms of the governing party..." PM Mark Carney says a separatist question isn't helpful to the economy, that it wasn't part of the UCP's election platform.

Oh did you want 3300 words from me on today's IOC sex testing rules? An essay on the nature of evidence and why we can't seem to stop getting stuck in the same traps around sex and gender in sports? Wow lucky you!! www.coyotemedia.org/the-olympics...
The Olympics Has a New Sex Testing Policy. The Evidence Doesn’t Add Up

Excellent episode of The Hatchet with @arshy.bsky.social. The recent police scandal is not “a few bad apples,” the Toronto Police have been operating like organized crime for generations. They act with impunity, refuse reform, and target and punish their critics: podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/t...
The Toronto Police Has Been a Rogue Agency for Too Long. Rein Them In.
