Most cartoonists aren't Rembrandt, but they become the voices of generations bc they are able to pinpoint, with painful accuracy, something no one else had the words to say. That's where the quality of their art comes from. A great artist is a great observer. The skillset is secondary.

Why is it that makers of these devices, unlike,say, print publishers historically (less so today) cannot consult experts on typography? This has been a big issue from the first ebook readers. &"reading modes" in browsers have the same issues.

Blowing the province's money like a drunken sailor. The #UCP have been slowly taking everything away we pay taxes for. Smith is supposed to be working for us, not herself. This whole crew is corrupt and wants to sell us. $30 billion could have built a hospital, like the one she cancelled.

Once again it's the first nations who make Canada what it is.
We would do well to remember that there would be no "Canada" without the aid and assistance of the first nation through history.

Fixed it: Can public trust survive a government that trades proven tech for manual confusion, throws us back 50 years, creates the longest lines ever seen, tops it off with a cumbersome unnecessary system loaded with opportunities for errors set up purposely to fail? I think not. #ABPoli #ABLeg

I do hope that someone smarter than me in #ableg adds up how much money the UCP has wasted
I want to be prepared for when the budget drops and Smith tells us that we can't afford healthcare or education
Never mind that rich corporations pay less tax than the lowest paid private citizen
