Nenshi and the Alberta NDP have just made what appears to be one of their first campaign promises!

Not only will they never use the notwithstanding clause, they’ll pursue legislation to make sure future governments don’t use it unless as a last resort.

For the last several months, I’ve been using a Thinkpad T480s i7 running omarchy that I bought for $180 on eBay. This is a better machine and software experience than my 2024 MacBook Pro with 64gb of ram running Monterrey.

@ianhanomansing.bsky.social, @davidwcochrane.bsky.social the Government of Alberta is selling out, and destroying our democracy tonight. We could use some help, and some national reporters on this! #CdnPoli #AbPoli

Imagine a Chinese or Russian leader saying this about the USA. But it's worse - because we have bled and died next to each other for the cause of freedom. You MAGA people have no idea how much damage is being done daily.
Today is election day in Canada and Trump seems to be suggesting that they vote to make him their leader and become the 51st state of the United States.

Journalists are trying to understand Trump’s irrational behavior, and are generally unwilling to consider the possibility that it's not some grand strategy, but a madman with increasingly diminished mental faculties.
There Is No Method to Trump’s Madness. He’s Simply Insane.
His defenders try to apply reason to his erratic, nonsensical decisions. That’s a fool’s errand—but fools abound in this administration.
