Proud Canadian that happens to live in Alberta.

1984 is a cautionary tale not a user guide.
Have lovingly tend a pair of oak trees for 30 years.
Gardening soothes the soul as does our laddie.

NEW: The F.D.A. refused to accept an application from Moderna for its mRNA flu vaccine.
Its reason: The agency did not think Moderna compared the new vaccine to one of the best flu shots available. The company spent $750M+ on a 41,000 person study.

Last week, I learned an adjudicator had sided with me in 5 inquiries re: the province refusing to release results of its Alberta Next surveys
GOA published the multiple choice results in Dec but has been ordered to give me 213 pages of open-answer replies that haven't yet been shared

Province broke its own access to information laws in withholding Alberta Next survey results
The Alberta government wrongly withheld hundreds of pages of results from its Alberta Next surveys an adjudicator has ruled.

Danielle Smith's “sovereign Alberta within a united Canada” is a stupid, childish phrase that they think lets them cleverly straddle the fence. In or out, you cowards. I'm not a fan of Quebec separatist parties, but they do have a valid claim to a unique language and culture; Alberta doesn't.
