Oh, military gentlemen, they bluster, roar and pray.
Nine sailors on the Nancy, boys, made fifty run away.
The powder in their hair that day was powder sent their way
By poor and ragged sailor men, who swore that they would stay.

Sometimes, if you have an older dog, you'll be halfway through morning walk on a warm fall day and they will decide they want to flop down on a random bit of sidewalk or grass and bliss out for awhile.

If you possibly can, you should sit down on the grass and pet them for awhile.

Now I am not a lawyer but I am pretty sure "kill the survivors clinging to wreckage" is an order so blatantly illegal that the people who gave the order *and* the people who carried it out are guilty as sin and should be brought up for murder and/or war crimes.

Almost like the UCP is basically anti-Canada

There’s a word for that, I swear
Danielle Smith: "I hope people today feel a lot more confident that Canada works than they did a couple of days ago."
UCP convention crowd: LOUD BOOS
Danielle Smith tried to sell her federal-Alberta energy deal to the UCP convention crowd: tepid applause.
She told them that this proved Canada can work well for Alberta’s interests: loud boos.

This ain’t a base that wants Smith to work with a Liberal PM on a better industrial carbon tax.

An international brewing school is leaving the United States for Montreal. This is another example of the disastrous impact of Trump's economic policies.

Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

Good listen on CBC Metro Morning with McLeish Orlando's Patrick Brown about new provincial legislation that's a good step for harsher penalties for some road violence that still doesn't go far enough especially given provincial speed camera repeal and bike lane ban.

"Underbus" is a great word but may be too mild. Remember "scragging"? I think scragging is probably due for a comeback.

jon, that's a good statement

gives me a lot to think about, and saying so allows me to flatter the audience (you) without saying anything of substance while i delay, until i think of a way to link this to one of the five approved talking points that i've been instructed to repeat
Justin, as someone who routinely interviews people, i'd love you to do a story/video/snippet or something about how PR education has taught EVERYONE to begin absolutely any response with, "That's a good question." Even five years ago we didn't hear that.

Canada made weird tv shows because it was all being done with government funded art grant money so they fell in this wacky middle ground between “shoestring budget” and “no expectation to generate shareholder value” which is really the best way to make art

Imagine the hole in Alberta’s budget when the price & demand for oil is in long-term decline in 2030s as a result of the energy transition and increased demand for clean energy. Not nostalgia for the past, it’s about winning the future. Just economics, folks.
Alberta faces $6.4-billion deficit as falling oil prices and trade troubles take toll
This year’s budget represents a massive multibillion-dollar swing from an $8.3-billion surplus last year
