Equality is a Charter right. Loving Thy Neighbour as Thyself is Jesus' second commandment. People who feel threatened by equality and empathy might be worshipping a false prophet. "Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy" - Nuremberg psychologist Captain Gustave Mark Gilbert
The Milhouse Mussolini uses rhyming versions of Trump's campaign tactics. If you can't rise to your opponent's level, try to smear them down to your level. He now attacks other conservatives. Pierre Poilievre Has the Least Work Experience of Any Politician in The Country medium.com/@LWilliamsWr...
Calgary's downtown is physically bounded by the Bow River, CP main line and two parks + some nitpicking; e.g. 10th Ave's Plus-15 connected offices and underpass-connected new hotels. Downtown Edmonton's edges are fuzzier and expanding.
Porter flies Dash 8-400 turboprops 1,280 km. to Halifax from the 3,988 ft. (1,216 m) main runway at Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ). The twin engine Beechcraft King Air 350 turboprop that Alberta sold in 2015 can fly from a lot more Ontario runways than a Challenger 650 jet.
Stephen Harper turned Chretien's surpluses into large deficits. Harper's final year small projected surplus was from selling $3.3 billion in GM shares that he bought for $4 billion. Federal government sells its multibillion-dollar stake in General Motors, April 6, 2015 globalnews.ca/news/1923817...
Danielle Smith wants to control Albertans' pensions to "invest" in what "smart money" won't. "Corporate welfare bums" was a favourite expression of former NDP leader David Lewis.
AI data centers are "big boxes" that consume up to 6x the power of a DeLorean time machine. If orbiting AI data centers will run without water, why do terrestrial data centers consume as much water as medium-sized cities? Their often rural locations suggest very few skilled staff will be needed.
Larger is usually cheaper; especially 1L shampoos and 20 lb. potatoes. Shoppers Drug Mart regularly sells PC Just Peanuts Crunchy 750g for $3.99 limit 4, often with further minimum spend discounts. Why is unnatural hydrogenated peanut butter 1 Kg?

The White House doctor is also researching any experimental drugs that could make Trump taller.
Health care is much cheaper and more effective in peer nations that treat it as a right. Running U.S. health care like a business is bad for Americans. Successful businesses cherry pick their customers and products, and maximize prices. Governments serve everybody.
Trump has far more references than anybody else in the redacted Epstein Files, and reportedly far more unreleased references. In 2017, Epstein said he was Trump's "closest friend for 10 years". A "Tiffany Doe" affidavit described a 13-year-old Trump-Epstein victim. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relatio...
Danielle Smith and her car-centric suburban+rural base insist on overriding transit decisions, despite knowing diddly squat. Even Vancouver's SkyTrain runs underground downtown. Hourly commuter rail would be a disaster. The WCE runs 5 weekday inbound trains over 2 hours, parks them, then returns.
Projection. Guy who targets the Maple MAGA pitchfork mob blames Liberal governments for inciting them, not Conservative + MAGA rhetoric and social media.
Human rights aren't Biblical - the Bible was mostly about peasants living under tyrants. Girls were left unprotected from puberty until marriage. "Biblical republic" is an oxymoron.
The Nazi Holocaust used census data, punched-cards and tattoos. "It's like déjà vu all over again" - Yogi Berra. How IBM Helped The Nazis Carry Out The Holocaust, Nov. 17, 2016 allthatsinteresting.com/ibm-nazis-ww2
Alberta separatists don't get that consulting impacted neighbours is required before drastically changing your land or their Treaty land. But not when keeping the status quo. Like in June 2016 when the Federal Court of Appeal quashed the Harper cabinet's approval of the Northern Gateway pipeline.
Social media hate and lies are not only free, but microtargeted. Paywalls are a tax on fact checking. The Salt Lake Tribune made it a little easier to read alternatives to oligarch-controlled content.
The only topic where I'll re-post Scott Adams. Statement: William (Viliam) Makis not licensed to practise medicine in Alberta (updated as of Mar. 2026) cpsa.ca/news/stateme...
Strict new rules during the <redacted sports body's> upcoming <redacted trademark> competition. "The red zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only. There is no docking in the white zone" bsky.app/profile/kehy...
Carbon tax had 'negligible' impact on inflation, new study says, www.cbc.ca/news/politic... "consumer prices increased by 19.3 per cent over [Jan. 2019 - April 2024]. If the "effects of indirect tax changes," such as sales, excise and carbon tax changes, are removed … prices rose by 18.7 per cent"
Calgary to Regina shouldn't take 4.5 - 5 hours longer than Edmonton to Regina. Less is more. Renting a car was much faster than BusBud's choices and much cheaper than flying.
Trump and Hegseth attacked Pope Leo XIV for opposing their Middle East holy wars. Minneapolis residents got a 2026 Nobel Peace Prize nomination for peacefully opposing ICE's violence. But Gym Jordan blames the shooter's anti-Trump anger on the anti-hate SPLC paying secret informants.
