“The difference in Alberta is, because we have such a restricted number of both beds and physicians, that when somebody pays for this, it’s not an extra spot that wouldn’t have been used. It is taking it away from somebody who would have needed that spot.” www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/be4d765...

For those who don’t know me, I truly try not to swear but here’s the problem, my father was British, my grandfather was from Newfoundland and I grew up in Cape Breton, my vocabulary is sweary and on that note, Trump is a fucking twat, muzzle your dog, we bow to no one.

🚨 Got this Alberta UPC propaganda in the mail yesterday. It is mostly anti-immigrant hate-mongering noise. Deeply misleading. Our tax dollars paid for this rage farming? Sum: WTF⁉️ ⚠️ VOTE NO TO THE NINE ⚠️

Thx @thewalrus.ca for a great article exposing the ‘big lie’ of Alberta victimisation weaponised by Smith’s opportunism. Our report with @ABFedLabour documents how it’s not Ottawa, but the greed of business & its UCP backers, that explains Albertans hardship: centreforfuturework.ca/2026/09/18/wor…

Over the ten years, Premier Smith claims Alberta faced a hostile federal government, oil and gas production doubled, and Ottawa poured tens of billions into energy infrastructure. The tolerance of her big lie is almost as remarkable as the lie itself. https://ow.ly/Fl7950ZRRaq

Ladies, leave that iced-coffee at home and get your pantyhose on!! The WaPo doing journalism as if it’s the 1950s 🤣🤣

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 7d ago

Is asking someone to leave the beverages at home for an interview as fussy as reminding a lady to wear pantyhose or a gentleman to ask before lighting a cigarette? We assembled a team of Post staffers across the newsroom — and commenters — to find out: https://wapo.st/4dwx0LS

Alberta will be following in Quebec’s footsteps in 3…2…1… b/c ya know “other provinces are doing it” 🤷‍♀️😡

today in Stop Romanticizing Canada: Quebec’s Bill 9 has just taken effect, barring women in veils from receiving public services. Public employees include university faculty, so professors have been instructed to require veiled women to uncover their faces or be removed from the classroom.

Ok. Can we now also stop pretending that Alberta is being overrun by international students? Or that the children of international students are overwhelming our public schools? #abpoli #cdnpoli #notothenine

The Hill Times@hilltimes.com · last wk.

Ottawa set a target of 155,000 new international student arrivals for 2026. However, according to Universities Canada, only 28,200 had arrived as of July 31, or about 18 per cent of the annual target. www.hilltimes.com/2026/09/23/o...

If a human did what ChatGPT did, they'd be convicted of conspiracy to commit murder, which can carry a life sentence. It's unconscionable that Canada's legislators are letting OpenAI get away with helping to plan murders. At the very least, it shouldn't be allowed to continue to operate in Canada.

Paris Marx@parismarx.com · last wk.

Just when I think I can’t hate OpenAI and Sam Altman any more, new details come out about how ChatGPT helped a shooter plan one of the worst mass shootings in Canadian history in Tumbler Ridge, BC. OpenAI made an explicit decision not to report the user to authorities.
