www.ipi.org/policy_blog/... “protectionism is being used by some American politicians as a cheap form of nationalism,a fig leaf for those unwilling to maintain Americas military strength and who lack the resolve to stand up to real enemies-countries that would use violence against us or our allies.”

I don’t think Americans understand how angry Canadians are to be under attack by the US govt. I don’t think Americans understand how deeply we mean it when we sing, “True North strong and free,” in our anthem. I’m sad that you’re about to figure it out.

Disabled Albertans are no strangers to harm caused by shortsighted, incompetent UCP policy. However, the cruelty in this case is jarring. Total gov savings of $420k will harm hundreds of people with intellectual disabilities from Lethbridge, Calgary, Edmonton. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

What does speaking out of both sides of your face mean? An example is guaranteeing no delisting of covered medical services while you are campaigning and then proceeding to delist a covered medical service. Just another day in Alberta.

At least to my knowledge and in my experience, this is the most benign any U.S. corporate media outlet has ever made war crimes that would destabilize the planet sound And if you can believe it, this headline is an edit of a previous headline that coyly said Trump was "teasing" these acts of war

Reading @swordsjew.bsky.social Wild Faith, but it is taking me forever as I go down rabbit trails of things I didn’t know much about (red heifer’s ???). It’s giving me perspective on why things currently seem so bizarre and the monumental effort it will take to reverse course. 👍📚💙 #booksky

The Quiet Damage (QAnon and the Destruction of the American Family) by Jesselyn Cook, is a riveting, and devastating, book about how people can get caught up in conspiracy theories and the resulting impact on the people who love them. Enlightening read for these times. 👍💙📚 #booksky
