I went on a beautiful drive this weekend. Although I live in Alberta, I am first and foremost a Canadian.

Alberta unions warn Premier Danielle Smith: unprecedented use of the Notwithstanding Clause against workers will result in an unprecedented response from unions in defence of worker rights.
A Facebook post by Gil McGowan, President of the Alberta Federation of Labour, dated 2025/Oct/24. It reads, BREAKING: Alberta unions warn Premier Danielle Smith: unprecedented use of the Notwithstanding Clause against workers will result in an unprecedented response from unions in defence of worker rights. At an emergency meeting held today at 5:00pm (MT), the Common Front, an umbrella group for all Alberta unions, leaders unanimously endorsed the following message to Premier Danielle Smith. Dear Premier Smith, On behalf of the more than 350,000 working Albertans who we represent, we urge you, in the strongest possible terms, to rule out the use of the Notwithstanding Clause as part of your government’s approach to the teachers’ strike. Invoking the clause would be unprecedented in the history of Canadian labour relations. It would also escalate the situation from a confrontation between your government and the teachers to a confrontation between you and the entire Canadian labour movement. If governments start using the Notwithstanding Clause as a tool in their dealings with workers and unions, it will make a mockery of the constitutionally protected right to strike. Without a robust and reliable right to strike, worker bargaining power will be eroded, and with it, the wages and living standards of all Canadian workers. If you take this unprecedented approach, we will have no choice but to mobilize an unprecedented response. There are many avenues your government could pursue to negotiate with public sector unions that do not involve invoking the Notwithstanding Clause. We urge you to choose them. Signed by all the unions of the Alberta Federation of Labour and the Alberta Common Front

I have lived at my current house for 3 years. Every year a couple of lily plants have grown but never have they flowered. This is the first flower I have gotten.

As I just said on radio what is most alarming about Danielle Smith tape is not the attempted collusion with a foreign government to interfere in our election it's that she said Poilievre is "in sync" with "new direction" in America which is a brutal autocracy with a crashing economy 🇨🇦 #CanadaSky

You've been asking yourself "where is the Canadian guy"? But you knew he would show up just when we needed him.

2 weeks ago it was too cold to ice skate outdoors. Today, this is what the ice rink looks like. Such a nice warm week we have had.

We went on a hike today to Jura creek. I loved it.
