I’m a proud Canadian—and Albertan—frustrated by the rise in Alberta separation talk and the silence from too many elected officials.

So I built two tools to help citizens push back.

nothing lasts forever and I wouldn't mind actually following the VA official account when it isn't being run by some dentist's failson.

Thankfully, she is using her powers for good!

Good luck with the move - I am doing the same. After a couple decades in Texas, it’s time for this Canadian to come home.

But it hasn’t always been as enforced. For things like meetings.

As someone starting a doctoral program, AI is another tool (just like a calculator, excel, and word).

Will I trust AI 100%? No

Will I use it to challenge my ideas and explore new ones? Yes

Will I accept AI output without making revisions? No

Will I be accountable for any AI used? Absolutely.

I'm going to hold the simple truths to remember what's real:
- Being trans isn't wrong it's just different from being cis
- Haters hate but I don't need to let that bleed into my heart
- Even though this all seems confusing it's actually not
- We can work together to win if we stay *principled*

Raise your voice. Every day.

The easiest way? Message your elected reps. I use @resist.bot it takes less than a minute.

Flood their inboxes. Make it impossible to ignore you. Demand accountability. Relentlessly.

Especially for those in red states.

I entered the US two decades ago on a NAFTA work permit, moved to an H-1B, and ultimately became a citizen. This change worries me.... it will drive top talent to other countries.

“Kenney said he also knows that separatism is, and always has been, the rallying cry for a tiny core of flighty, discontented Albertans.

How far off the rails are we now Kenney is a voice of reason?
