If you watched riot cops spilling through the windows at Columbia to beat up students and still thought the Dems had it sealed, I don’t know what to tell you. Then one university betrayal after another until UCalgary and UofA three weeks later. Mamdani is the youth-led course-correction.
Think about how the left told Biden, and then Kamala, that their campaign would 100% lose if they did the exact opposite of what Mamdani's would be.

They literally plugged their ears and said shut the fuck up, and then she lost by doing the exact opposite, in every way on every issue, of Mamdani.

Early and excessive #socialmedia use carries real developmental costs. Our @jama.com editorial urges policymakers to act now — the cost of prevention is low, but the cost of inaction is high.

Satellite data shows methane emissions are declining in part of Canada’s oil patch, but more monitoring is needed
Satellites can be used to independently monitor emissions, helping to better understand emissions in regions where ground-based or other data are lacking.

2/10 Experts point directly at the #UCP government’s new election rules.

Prof. #LisaYoung of UCalgary said the problem was clear.

Poll workers were forced to manually "fill out voter attestation forms for everybody, including their name, their address, and then get a signature.”

One small example. UCalgary calling a new ban on overnight protests a "clarification" of policy vs the many student encampments protesting tuition hikes. Is what is being protested the difference?

One bigger example. UCalgary's claim there were no reports of injuries to protesters by CPS.

After Calgary Police smashed my face in, I was left asking WHY the UofC sicced riot cops on a peaceful protest so quickly and so violently.

@readtheorchard.org reveals it may have been at the behest of a pro-Israel lobby in contact with the UofC President.
