Over the 10 days of the Calgary Stampede rodeo, you may see 2 or 3 Black athletes. It's interesting & funny. The history of ranching in North America is rooted in the people of Africa & the Caribbean. There are Black rodeos in the USA. That's not a narrative that's discussed in Calgary, ever. 1/

In the months since I wrote this piece, I've been reflecting on the core of the modern separatist movement in Alberta.

I'm becoming more convinced that it's not a product of western alienation so much as an offshoot of far right politics.

International journalists can’t enter Gaza. But healthcare workers can.

They say it can’t be done, but here we are, California is generated 106% of California’s entire state electricity demand from renewables.

California has a population bigger that 154 other countries around the world. It’s the 4th largest economy, in the world.

Let that sink in.

Canada faces a moral crossroads. It can either uphold the principles of justice and human dignity, or remain complicit in atrocity. To be on the right side of history, and to honour the promise of Never Again, our leaders must act now.

From the DM’s…

Last night TBA/the separatists unveiled part of their strategy.

Apparently it’s including union leaders who have nothing to do with TBA in videos to try to create chaos & division in unions.

This isn’t activism.

It’s almost terrorism.
