Made crabapple and crabapple mint jelly. Been doing this every year for decades. Great way to relax and forget about the disturbing stuff for a spell.

This is so sad for our seniors. My mom is 88 and the whole online booking process is intentionally confusing and difficult to navigate. We will be able to help her but many seniors may not have anyone. She’d be way more comfortable just going to her Co-op pharmacy that she is familiar with.

Brutally frank judgment from Justice Feasby in what was effectively an application that the case management judge in a high conflict matter recuse themselves: Paul v Stephenson (Estate). "This application was without merit and should not have been commenced" & a waste of scarce judicial resources.

We have waited a long time for this but it's good to see it esp in the form of joint statement. While the focus is the West Bank it's also good to see this: "There must be no unlawful transfer of Palestinians from Gaza or within the West Bank, nor any reduction in the territory of the Gaza Strip."

Gotta love Bono in this new interview praising Canada for rejecting Poilievre the populist and electing the thoughtful, intelligent & competent Carney. “51 reasons to love Canada,” indeed.

Poilievre is reviled and Carney is revered inside & outside of this great country. 🇨🇦

Such a one sided survey. If you oppose GoA standards you are asked to explain. If you support GoA standards you get a libertarian pass.
This is such a shitty survey.

The UCP are interested in banning some books. They've put together a survey. It doesn't ask for any names/personal info.

So Premier Smith appoints Jason Stephan, the MLA who calls for a referendum on Alberta independence/separation, to the Alberta First Cabinet policy committee; just to make sure that it's balanced I suppose. #abpoli
