I feel like Alberta losing their democracy should be a bigger deal.
I know there’s a lot going on tonight (Go Oilers), but just as the game starts, the UCP will start ramming through two very troubling bills and will end all further debate.
Among other things, Bill 54 includes a series of awful undemocratic election reforms and Bill 55 allows for private hospitals.

Pierre Poilievre is good at “whipping up mass anger.”
In a time where “Websites that allow anonymous publishing by angry men & foreign agents are the single most important force in modern politics.”
But, Canada doesn't need a carnival barker at this time.

100%. Deliberate, bold, leadership. What we need now everywhere in cities.
Remember, Paris wasn’t “always this way.”
Not that many years ago, Paris was choking in car traffic. And it wasn’t a safe place to ride a bike for transportation, so not many people tried.
This is new. This is a result of deliberate vision, and bold leadership.
Cities are a result of choices.

Trump and the GOP understand many Americans are fed up with the status quo. The problem with many Dem leaders is that they are addicted to it. Progress requires change...which requires not just courage but imagination and the willingness to ask hard questions. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

What we’re witnessing in America is what happens when disordered discourse captures a political party, then the state itself. The Republican Party was the first to fall - abandoning truth for conspiracy, ideology for grievance, and policy for performative outrage.
