Absolutely knew it was coming.
(In what I think is typical M.Jones fashion, I did try to find some element of humour or sarcasm in it)

Whatever they do to Haitians, they can do to you.
Whatever they do to Somalis, they can do to you.
Whatever they do to trans folk, they can do to you.
Whatever they do to immigrants, they can do to you.

Remember that. You'd better.

That's two polls in a row in the last 48 hours showing how much of a pipe dream Albertan independence is
Albertan Independence? Meet cold, harsh reality

New polling reinforces older polls showing little support for leaving Canada, though UCP voters are much more willing to support the idea.

Honestly, this is why there should be public sector information platforms for a lot of what we ended up shoehorning into social media. Public-interest communication is a different problem class: it's not growth maximizing nor engagement seeking; it should (ideally) not be identity-performative.

It's been five years since I woke up with a stroke. So it's time for my annual repost of my stroke PSA thread.
3 years ago today, I had my stroke. I woke up feeling drunk: dizzy, blurry vision, slurring my speech. After a minute, I couldn't move my right side at all.

If this ever happens to you, get yourself to a hospital immediately. Time is critical.

An anonymous activist claiming to hail from Edmonton, Alberta has put up a new website tracking which Alberta MLAs are supporting the Alberta separatist movement. The website, clearly in opposition to separatism, links out to local recall campaigns against those MLAs.

In 2024, I rose in Senate QP to ask why the Govt of Canada was still using X for official communications. Today, they are still there. What exactly will it take to break the spell?
