During the Inuit printmaking artistic movement in Kinngait (previously Cape Dorset), Kananginak Pootoogook emerged as a leading printer and sculptor.
His work has been exhibited across Canada but today he is celebrated for his artistic genius.
This is his story.

Shane Getson openly lied in the Legislature this week.

He said on multiple occasions that the Supreme Court of Canada had said that possession of Child Sexual Abuse Materials is "OK".

The Supreme Court said no such thing.

“The Alberta gov’t released a report on aggression and complexity in schools on Friday that echo what the teachers’ union and others have spent years calling for, prompting critics to accuse the gov’t of dragging its heels.”

The OAG’s report on the failed DynaLIFE lab contract should alarm every Albertan.

An Examination of Community Laboratory Services (Contract with DynaLIFE) - Office of the Auditor General, Alberta

Let me translate Smithnwesson’s comment:

“In a society like ours, which is diverse, which is multicultural, which is becoming increasingly more complex,” professionals should be allowed to be bigoted and hateful.

This is a UCP MLA calling for a referendum on abortion inside of the legislature.

What do you call a group that demands total freedom, but panics the moment anyone demands theirs?

It’s a purity cult. If they override you, it’s stability. If you assert yourself, it’s chaos. They want to control who has a voice.

#ForeverCanadian upset that order, so they want to change the law.

There was also James Macleod, Charles Best and today's subject...James Collip.
