Which conservative leader gets turfed first, Smith or Pierre?
Jason Kenney ultimately got toppled by his own party's base because he took some tepid steps, belatedly, on COVID-19.
Based on the crowd reaction at the UCP convention this weekend, Danielle Smith might get turfed because she tried to co-operate, however reluctantly, with Ottawa.

Ali Ahmed is one of the great development stories in MLS. All he needed was a wall to bash that cross off of for the goal

Now that's official, I really think the rebranding of York United to Inter Toronto was a smart move. Using a Toronto Blue and giving it a true Toronto vibe will make it a much better sell as a product. (Actually playing in Toronto will make it even better)

The difference in reaction on the Alberta pipeline MOU between my Bluesky, Threads, and Facebook feed is super fascinating.

Even though I am warming on the MOU, I really respect Mr. Guilbeault with this stand. It takes a lot to resign on principle like this.
This afternoon, I informed the Prime Minister of my decision to resign as Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture, Minister responsible for Official Languages, Minister of Nature and Parks Canada, as well as his Lieutenant in Quebec.
You can find my full statement below.

Like this might happen, but the odds of a pipeline proposal meeting this criteria AND being submitted by July 1st are so low.

Mark Carney managed to trade a pipeline that will never get built for meaningful progress on industrial carbon pricing and electricity interties — both of which will get more wind and solar built.

The method to Mark Carney’s madness
The memorandum of understanding with Alberta might look like surrender. Look closer

I don't think any of these will be successful, but I am incredibly happy to see a big of FAFO on this policy. Recall legislation is ridiculous in a Westminster system and was just red meat for the populous. Happy to see it backfire for the UCP (like us old PC'ers said it would).
Nov 20th: #RecallNathanTNeudorf's paperwork is submitted & warming up on the sidelines—he may be in the game soon! Meanwhile, #recallNicolaides and #recallPitt have the ultimate head start, already collecting signatures like it's a marathon. Popcorn ready! 🍿
