No doubt law enforcement in other Canadian cities will be picking this up soon as well. If you're an Edmonton resident, be aware!
Axon is testing facial recognition technology in its body-worn cameras with a Canadian police department. This dangerous expansion of surveillance tech should alarm every community. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

Tonight’s run to the dollar store in my Santa suit had me yelling at multiple thieves stealing handfuls of chocolate bars (among other things) and walking out the door.
“I know you’re not just going to steal all that in front of Santa…”
They did end up stealing (his accomplice didn’t however)

"We have a budget deficit, so we had to eliminate the rights of teachers" probably wouldn't be an argument I would make. If that's the case, why would any union think the province is bargaining in good faith? edmontonjournal.com/news/local-n...
Alberta used notwithstanding clause to avoid costly arbitration with teachers, infrastructure minister says
Alberta infrastructure minister says the province invoked the notwithstanding clause to force teachers back was due to cost.

As a podcast cohost myself, I think it’s hilarious how many ppl who definitely are great guests on any podcast…
Are now compelled to create their own (Tkachuk bros having a podcast is proof I’ll never get a show myself)
Tbh when I read Pat Sajak had his own podcast, I knew “normies” were cooked.

I used to hate being big enough to be Santa
Now I can’t tell you the joy I get from seeing the excitement of others driving by me running in a Santa suit.
Kiddos just screaming. Parents waving nicely. And bros in their souped up cars? They wave gleefully too.
It’s a special thing.

Naming rights of buildings should be exactly the same as human beings.
Can’t be named directly after companies/brands.
(I have not said this thought until now because I fear the US will adopt a “buy-a-baby name program” soon thereafter)

Don’t worry, lots of them have already reoffended
So far, in less than one year, Donald Trump has issued over TEN TIMES as many pardons as he did in his entire four-year first term. That’s a lot of criminals released onto our streets.

Where Stewart (aka Junior IIRC) had on @matthewfjohnson.bsky.social (of @mediasmarts.bsky.social)

a black and white photo of a person 's shadow on a wooden floor .
Alt: Had to include this gif’s baked in (AI?) Alt text in () below… but here’s mine;
The silhouette of a hippo is seen in black and white as it appears to scurry across a kitchen tile floor. It’s a clip from a PSA a Canadian company - Concerned Children’s Advertisers / now MediaSmarts.ca IP - created trying to get kids and parents to think about what they were seeing on TV. Of course no such house hippo exists [Moo Deng is NOT one]. And now… whatever the heck “they” tried to explain it as
