This is the first time in my adult life I am hearing the “ring of fire” in reference to Northern Ontario…

Is that a Doug Ford thing?

In the aftermath of 9/11 it was dangerous to be brown in public. People were assaulted, shot and even killed for being or looking like Muslims/Arabs in the eyes of chuds around the country. This included Sikhs as in the murder of Balbir Singh Sodhi.

It’s called being disqualified to hold office.

Politicians used to have awareness about themselves.

You will likely try and “let the voters decide”.

'Segregated facilities' are no longer explicitly banned in federal contracts

The Trump administration cut a clause from federal contracting rules that had been on the books since the 1960s: Companies are no longer explicitly prohibited from having segregated facilities.

The only way to book COVID vaccines for young children in Alberta is by calling 811 / HealthLink.

Bookings opened Monday.

It’s now Friday and the system is still saying call volumes are too high and auto-hanging-up on callers. 🙃

(They also cost $100 a pop, if you can ever get through.)

Alberta ordering about 12,000 public service employees to stop doing hybrid work and "return to a five day per week in-office standard" as of Feb. 1.

Alberta Public Service update: Interim Hybrid Work Policy
October 24, 2025 Media inquiries

Deputy Ministers’ Council has issued the following statement regarding changes to the Alberta Public Service Interim Hybrid Work Policy:

“Today, the Alberta Public Service (APS) has announced changes to the Interim Hybrid Work Policy. The policy will be discontinued, requiring all APS employees to return full-time, in-office. This means the APS will return to a five day per-week in-office standard, starting February 1, 2026.

“The Interim Hybrid Work Policy was introduced in March 2022, following the lifting of the Government of Alberta’s public health work-from-home order. The Interim Hybrid Work Policy was implemented to allow eligible APS employees to work from home up to two days per week. As of August 2025, nearly 12,600 APS employees, or approximately 44 per cent of the workforce, participated in hybrid arrangements.

“The policy was originally implemented in response to the public health crisis and will now be discontinued due to changing circumstances and sector trends. The Deputy Ministers’ Human Resource Integration Committee decision reflects similar actions taken by other organizations, including the Government of Ontario.

“The APS remains committed to flexibility through other policies which employees can still access based on operational needs, such as hours of work averaging arrangements, flexible hours arrangements and modified work schedules. Medical accommodations will continue to be considered under the Duty to Accommodate Policy.

“APS employees with additional questions are encouraged to contact their supervisor or Human Resource Business Partners for further information.”
