Time for me to share a deeply personal sentiment. This is as good a way to introduce myself as any.

I was talking with a friend about why I'm a Trekkie. She didn't understand why Star Trek was so important to me.

From the people who brought you "An Injunction of Truth" we have the sequel. unitedconservative.ca/events/the-c...

The Courage to Listen Town Hall - United Conservative Party of Alberta

I'm not here (or on Threads) to be famous. I come here to promote ideas I think are important, to contribute to those conversations, and to learn.

As soon as Bluesky matches Threads' character limit, I'll cross post everything.

If you're wondering why I don't post here:

1. The character limit here is less than Threads, so my longer posts (often 10-15 posts) have to be re-divided to fit Bluesky

2. Despite having twice my follower count here as on Threads, I get almost no response. On Threads, I have conversations.

Vincent Musetto passed away ten years, today. There is no reason why you should ever have heard of this former editor of the New York Post, other than he is the author of (arguably) the world's greatest newspaper headline: Headless Body in Topless Bar.

This may be his only visit. I hope he enjoys every moment!

I saw a bit of the King's day, when he was working the crowd. As he shook a man's hand, the guy said to the King, loudly, "It's an honour to meet you, my friend!"

What a perfectly Canadian thing to say! Polite, respectful, honest, and informal. I love us!

It would be administered by Elections Alberta, which is independent... and the UCP isn't competent enough to compromise that without being caught.

I swear, if the new Pope excommunicates JD Vance, I'll show up at mass on Sunday, drop a $20 in the collection plate, then high-five the priest on my way out the door.

In the Oval Office, PM Mark Carney said “During the election campaign I met with the owners of Canada, and they said it's not for sale."

We elected the right guy, my friends, we really did.

He cares about this country and the people in it. He worked hard for us, and I know people who have benefited from the programs he helped usher in.

Thank you, @jagmeetsingh.ca. for your service.

ViperTwoSix @vipertwosix.bsky.social · Apr 29

Say what you want about Jagmeet Singh's leadership, and I can and have said plenty, but he helped usher in pharmacare, daycare, and dentalcare. He didn't write the bills but he pushed for them and helped pass them.

Musk can walk away from Trump and DOGE knowing his $250 million got him EXACTLY what he wanted.

Not increased government efficiency, gutting the civil service, eliminating regulations, or growing his companies' govt contract work.

He wanted to kill the multiple investigations into him. Done.

It's a surrender of the responsibility of governing, where the people we elect can shrug their shoulders and say "gee, what are you gonna do? Guess we'll have to cut services."

ViperTwoSix @vipertwosix.bsky.social · Apr 22

This is some serious Hail Mary Pass bullshit. It's not as desperate as the 2015 Barbaric Cultural Practices Hotline, but it's still really dumb.

This is intended to appeal to voters who think, as one Ab UCP MLA put it, "painting a line down the middle of a road is too much government."

I wish JD Vance would spend more time with Trump. No reason.

Calgary Confederation & Calgary Centre are tied between Liberals and Cons.

NDP voters: orange is closer to red than blue.

Your vote may determine if Calgary gets real representation in a Carney majority government—or a former UCP MLA in opposition.

NDP voters: A strategic vote in Calgary Confederation is for Corey Hogan!
