Catching up on my homework, I finally had the chance to review Mentzelopoulos's statement of claim re the Alberta healthcare scandal. It really is a wide-ranging series of accusations. Here are my takeaways. 🧵https://www.scribd.com/document/827797277/Statement-of-Claim-Mentzelopoulos

Gotta say, out of all the provincial newspapers I reviewed (including the big 4 in EDM & CGY), the Lethbridge Herald's coverage was the most balanced, speaking to the issues rather than parroting UCP presser talking points. BONUS: Both written by a local reporter. Nice!!

CBC trying to explain how a "conversation" about whether Canada has a right to exist as a nation will be good because they have asked an American DJ to co-host. Like asking Ukraine to join a "conversation" with Russia about their borders. But don't worry it will be done with "care."

🚒 KFR investigating multiple reports of a strong chemical smell in central #ygk area, seeming to concentrate near old traffic circle (Bath Rd, Princess St and Concession St).

“The CBC shouldn’t ignore Donald Trump’s annexation threats, but as a foundational element of Canadian culture, they have a public responsibility to fight it with extreme prejudice at every opportunity they get.”

What an intro! “we are in full-fledged disaster mode” #AbPoli #AbLeg #AHS #Health #Hospitals #FireTheUCP

By the way, here’s a gift link to Lloyd Axworthy’s column that I think every Canadian should read. (Americans too. He was our Foreign Minister under PM Jean Chrétien.) “This should serve as a wake-up call for Canada. Ukraine’s struggle shows the dangers of underestimating authoritarian threats…”

This isn’t diplomacy, it’s a mob shakedown. “Nice minerals you got there, Ukraine. Hand ’em over or we pull the plug on your internet while Russia bombs your cities.” That’s not leadership; that’s doing Putin’s dirty work. www.rawstory.com/trump-zelens...

Listen to the Cassandras. Many have been warning about what we’re seeing now, for years. But it’s long past time people in positions of power, in politics, business, or media, stepped the F up. For starters, I’ll re-up the alarm about #ProjectRussia CC @davetroy.com

Lyin' Brian should be fired, or resign "What’s left will end up contaminated with selenium and other chemicals. So, goodbye to clean, potable water and to the native trout. This latest creative spin from Brian Jean’s office is nothing short of a joke. Coal mines use a lot of water, year-round .."

In Alberta grassroots resistance is coming together to take on the MAGA premier. Here is a link for resistance in the land of the big sky. Go Alberta go. www.abresistance.ca

Mark Carney is one of the most respected voices on the economy worldwide and the most qualified candidate to steer Canada through the second Trump presidency.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Zelenskyy has shown the world what democracy means. Donald Trump is a convicted felon and a sexual pervert. These two men shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same sentence.

Great new piece by Christopher Holcroft on Poilievre’s hamfisted attempt to rebrand as Captain Canada, despite opposing literally everything that makes Canada, Canada @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social @chrystia-freeland.bsky.social www.thespec.com/opinion/cont...

Impact of those dodgy contracts allegations continues to spread – so, did anyone ever call the cops? albertapolitics.ca/2025/02/impa...

Local woman wakes up, plans a Leopards Eating Faces Gala, with the leopards wearing high fashion outfits and the other guests wearing whatever matches best with eaten faces, makes oatmeal.

I’ve had mostly the same fruity oatmeal for the last 4 years (peaches, strawberries, raspberries and blueberries) and today I shook things up, chopped an apple into lil pieces and cooked with the oats in the saucepan. Then added spices, plain yogurt and a drizzle of maple syrup.

Please read my latest reflection. There are lies we tell to comfort ourselves. Like Democrats who say we just have to wait two year and Trump will lose control of the House. Like those in Germany who promoted Hitler while believing they could control him. charlieangus.substack.com/p/the-reichs...
