I was part of the early wave who left Twitter before the rename. After a lengthy time of being a social media vagabond, I’ve decided to land here on Bluesky. It seems appropriate since my Spirit Insect is a butterfly! #BlueskyPhoto

Primary Care Alberta recently declared a TB outbreak in Edmonton’s inner city. Twelve cases of active tuberculosis were diagnosed in 2025, making the incidence of TB in Edmonton a little higher than the average of poor countries in sub-Saharan Africa.

Here’s a fundamental problem with the difference btwn governance & politics. Why do we expect government to educate, persuade & even bribe us for votes. How can that bring us to success? Where is the media in this? Rather than delving into the policies and strategies, many are looking for gotchas.
Why Mark Carney Needs to Keep the Public Onside
Public opinion is not a distraction from power. It is the source of it.

On this day in 1972, Lester B. Pearson died.
A Nobel Peace Prize recipient, he was Prime Minister from 1963 to 1968.
A star hockey player, he was nearly the first Secretary General of the United Nations and once drank Nikita Khrushchev under the table.
This is his story

We just saw Kate Winslet‘s movie that she directed called “Goodbye June”. We were very moved by it. The reality of the actor’s performances was amazing. Kate herself, who is a wonderful actress knows how to get performances out of her actors!
