I thought the World Juniors was always a Canadian tournament?? Must have been some pressure from somewhere to move it to the US??
If the world juniors were playing in Canada, they would be sold out, why is the US even hosting them? When they played here in Nova Scotia, people were begging for tickets, almost sold out in every game, no matter who was playing. #Canada #Latvia

Any other president!
At any other point in American history, he would be pulled from office and brought up on criminal charges.

A family member, a senior who lives in Calgary, won’t be getting her Covid shot this year because she can’t afford it and it will be difficult for her to access. She told me “if I die of Covid, thank Danielle for me”.

I really think that Trump only appoints people to places of authority when he has evidence of wrong doing on them. This is how he seems to play them all like a fiddle while they dance to his tunes, no matter what he asks them to do.

That’s because Trump is really good at it and hopes to use this advice to give prosecutors.
Bill Pulte, the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, has referred Swalwell to the DOJ for a criminal probe, alleging mortgage and tax fraud on his Washington, D.C. home.

It’s the fourth time the administration has tried to use mortgage fraud against Democratic opponents. trib.al/iNCTPbG

Just had my seasonal flu and covid shots. No appointment, just dropped in at a flu clinic and it took minutes. At least something in Sask healthcare runs smoothly!
And, at no cost Alberta!
I’ve jumped through all the hoops required to book a COVID shot (a month from now). At no point did I have to demonstrate that I had ‘reserved’ a shot back in stage 1 of the process. What was the point of that exercise, exactly??

And all but the province of Ontario will benefit from this thanks to premier Doug Ford.

Pierre Poillievre is just a small man with no substance making up stories to maintain his relevance. Sorry to tell you buddy, it’s not working!

“I’m not a crook!”
To be unaware of one thing you don't wish to talk about is convenient.

To be unaware of *everything* you don't wish to talk about is either lying or incompetence. Or both.
Q: What's your message to the 170 US citizens who have been detained by ICE? About 20 of them are children

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know what you're talking about with the children. I haven't seen that so I'm not going to comment on it.

Misleading us causes division - division helps the rich get richer and keeps the poor poorer

It’s a massive distraction technique using division to prevent us standing up together to demand fairness for all.

Someone in Alberta could very easily produce a referendum to recall Danielle and the UCP government??
~Incoming separation referendum in AB!

The UCP is going to make it easier for Albertans to get a question on a referendum ballot by lowering the number of signatures required to get a vote on a ballot& extending the time allowed to get the signatures

Not surprised. Look how women in politics are treated! Threats to the safety of themselves and their families does not put this career choice at the top of their list. Until there are more protections in place for persons in politics, the number will continue to drop.
I can't speak in public without a security detail and I'm "just" an advocate and public educator.

The level of violence, hate and harassment that women experience in politics is beyond comprehension. You couldn't pay me enough to be in politics right now.

This is bad for democracy.

The study also showed a drop in the number of visible-minority candidates

This is because the anti- liberal ideology has been indoctrinated into Alberta children for generations. They don’t like their kids to leave Alberta as they tend to change their minds when they are allowed to actually do some research.

Its made up of a majority of Trump’s cult followers so good luck with that.
What are the odds that enough Supreme Court Justices believe we shouldn't put people in foreign torture prisons without due process & especially when the government misrepresents the evidence it has in briefs it submits to the Court?
