I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30.
Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50.
I’m 58 now.
HIV treatment works.
Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex.
Ensure HIV treatment for all.
End HIV stigma.

Regardless of statistics showing crime is dwindling, safety is a major concern for Calgarians—why?

In my latest essay, i explore this question, alongside the implications of letting our bourgeois fears guide our city’s policy agenda.
Are you afraid of poverty?
Why responding to middle-class fears won’t make Calgary a more equitable city

Watch: Terms like R1 and R2 vanished when blanket rezoning came to Calgary, and the city says it's meant there's been rapid growth of new homes.

We like to complain that Calgary wants to pave over our past and that developers don’t care about our heritage buildings. So here’s your chance to save a bit of history.

🐎 CAVALRY WIN!

It’s their first dub of the season, holding off York’s late surge to take it 2-1.

Very chippy match, yellow cards everywhere. But Warschewski and Aird made the best of their moments to score.

Cavs head home happy.

"If you haven't been there, go to Calgary" - Diana Matheson

I'm obviously biased, but I think Calgary is the most underrated soccer city in Canada. What's been pulled out of thin air in the last 10 years is nothing short of remarkable. And we get very little credit for it from elsewhere.

The Cavs record the biggest victory in the franchise's seven-year existence, and the first ever for a CPL crew against a Liga MX side.

It'll probably fly under the radar in the Canadian sports landscape (as most #CanPL news does), but last night's 2-1 win by Cavalry FC over Mexican giants Pumas is a huge moment for domestic soccer in the country

I have waited for ever for this moment. I am so proud of the @cavalryfc.
