I don't think Trump fully understands how precarious the path he's walking can become.

I don't think we're prepared to face how enormously expensive managing forest fires will be in the future.

Stoked about vast regions of Canada already being on fire before June. I hate starting every fire season like this.

"We love you Canadians! So come down and take your chances with our new Gestapo!" Every single one of them can get F-ed. It's beyond having offended Canadians, it's no longer SAFE to go travel and they ALL know that. F-ing sociopaths. #ElbowsUp #cdnpoli

AI is total trash.

I shouldn't, but I still find it wild that MAGA is cheering on the destruction of the very things that made America exemplary and capable of being more than their sordid history and glaring flaws. I will constantly go to bat for quality public education in an attempt to preclude this insanity.

The expectation from certain corners of Alberta that the federal Environment Minister should be pro O&G looks like a collective delusion from my vantage point. The entire country isn't ensorcelled by that particular industry. That's just an embarrassingly large portion of Alberta.

I need to stress the importance of avoiding situations where you're at the mercy of the arbitrary whims of a border agent in a country that's rapidly descended into fascism. Stay away if you have that privilege.

The most annoying thing about Smith's demands for mass legislation repeal is that it completely ignores the other stakeholders in the equation. No legislation is explicitly about screwing a place or people. Maybe we should try to understand why some Canadians want the legislation we find limiting.

Do you think Smith opening the door to separation is going to make it more or less likely that we will see movement on interprovincial infrastructure to benefit Alberta? We're going to be seen as a weak link during a crisis.

I'm genuinely curious as to whether the CPC emptied their war chest on this one. That's going to influence their behavior a fair bit.
