I keep typing and erasing words. I am literally incoherent with anger.

Erasing human rights, punching down on gender-queer kids, as a feeble distraction from other UCP scandals.

Don’t let anyone treat Bill 9 like political point scoring. This will have deadly consequences for bullied children.

“When a government grants itself license to override physician judgment and patient consent, who - at any stage of life — will be next?”

The AMA raising very serious concerns about the UCP’s invocation of the notwithstanding clause.

🇨🇦 Evan Dunfee overwhelmed with emotion after winning gold as he’s greeted by Athletics Canada head coach Glenroy Gilbert.

And then he’s greeted by his family who are here in Tokyo and have been there for this long journey.

What a special moment for the Dunfee family.

I signed the Forever Canadian petition just now at Callingwood, across from Shoppers. And thanked @lukaszukab.bsky.social directly for coordinating/initiating this (I may not have appreciated him as a PC politician back in the day but doing lots of good stuff IMO since)

Danielle Smith was elected to a Calgary school board. It had to be dissolved.

Smith became the leader of the WRP. It imploded.

Smith joined the PC party. It no longer exists.

What do you think she's going to do Alberta?

It's been a while since I've read a story this long, this thoroughly reported, this blunt in laying out its allegations of wrongdoing.

My jaw was on the floor from start to finish.

@kennyjacoby.bsky.social on how the Dallas Stars "bullied a community on their path to profiting off a youth sport":
‘They control everything’: How the Dallas Stars monopolized Texas youth hockey
Ice is power in the lucrative world of youth hockey. In North Texas, the Dallas Stars hold almost all of it.

This is unbelievable!

At a cost of only $240k a year, the specialized orthopedic surgery center taxpayers just built could have been reopened after being closed for over 6 months.

Powers that be said no.

A proposed solution, offered about one month after resident physicians stopped providing on-call support at an Edmonton hospital, was turned down because it wasn't 'cost neutral,' documents say.

So our government is letting people die and suffer for an additional $100 on a $20,000 joint replacement???

They were getting a *free* service before from the residents and now balking at less than a 1% cost premium.

This is fiscal mismanagement at its finest.

We can't afford the UCP. /end
