Lover of ads, words, deeds and fool madammes.
And hummus. 🙌🏾 🆙 🇨🇦
Also, leave it to the Fraser Institute to miss the obvious and still get quoted by Canadian media. 🥴🥴

People aren’t less charitable, our money is worth less and wages haven’t kept up for decades.

It took a while to catch up with everyone so they felt comfortable saying no to charities they believed in.

That’s all.

It was -25C / -13F this morning in central Alberta 🇨🇦 . Not too cold for physical work outside, but 🥶 for standing around in. 😅

Public regulation is easier than corporate regulation, just ask every modern democracy on earth. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Brutal. Sorry to hear.
I dropped my car off for a service and rode back for much of 23rd & 34 Ave and 91 St, and it had some extremely sketchy zones, but I had my studded fat bike to keep me upright.

I want Pizza Hut’s Peace-a-Pizza Prize… 🍕

I would happily trade Edmonton’s 0C for Montreal’s -16C ANY DAY OF THE WEEK.

At 0, Edmonton is a sleety, slushy fat bike nightmare. I had so much dirt in my hair, I needed a shower before every client call. 😆

Heartbreaking! 💔

YUP!

Brian Jean: “Whoopsie!!!” 🙄🙄🙄

That’s the obvious ‘pivot’ — one born of rejection. 😆

Give it 10 years.

Canada always follows, eventually. 🥴

Keep in mind, this is what panic looks like. I bet he’s feeling a LOT of pressure.

He always does this freakout shit when he’s under the knife. 🙌🏾🙌🏾

Everyone needs to watch for illegality in the midterms. That’s the battleground.

You mistake moral superiority for vulnerability.

Good bye indeed.
December 2, 2025 at 3:58 PM
My point is that these things happen in a vacuum BECAUSE no one is fighting for them at a level needed to stop it. People like YOU are the apathy feeding what will be the death of the last breaths of public’s in this country.

You’re obviously ok with it, but I’m not.

Glad you’re laughing.

Schools funded less than ever, as are universities, libraries.
Municipalities gained responsibilities without constitutional status or adequate fiscal tools, with transit systems, aging infrastructure, and austerity budgets. Again, not for you. You’re just fine or something…

I’m living through a regime of this in Alberta and it hasn’t been easy. 👍🏾

IMO we need a working narrative (value and economic) that allows Canadians to reclaim healthcare as a public good.
‘I got this for free’ isn’t ownership. That’s reusing market language to explain a core societal value.

Thank you!

The last 50 years reflect a MASSIVE shift from collective, public oriented structures to hyper-capitalized market-mediated systems, eroding economic environmental and cultural publics that used to anchor Canadian life.

It’s not moral superiority, Jack.

It’s THE goddamn OBVIOUS.
December 1, 2025 at 9:03 PM
My point is that we actually do.

Public funds are one of the few public’s left. If we lose the argument for why we need it, it leaves a lot of room for mismanagement and underfunding.
By having ALL OF US take ownership, we lessen that risk.

Super interesting!
Does Cook County have open data/open access to pull reports about successes challenges?
