I love Chicago. The news headlines coming out about the ICE activities there are heartbreaking to read.
A great Chicago writer (now in Waukegan) weighs in.

Got such a wonderful review of WITHOUT CONSENT in Washington Lawyer, the DC Bar's bimonthly magazine: "an excellent book that should be required reading for all law students. For the rest of us, it provides fascinating insight into forgotten legal history." washingtonlawyer.dcbar.org/novemberdece...

Premier Smith's Chief of Staff, Rob Anderson, would be OUTRAGED teachers were stripped of their freedom of expression... if he wasn't a huge hypocrite.

"How dare we think we can do that? What kind of society do we think we live in?"

Jackass who refused to bargain good faith, overrode the Canadian & Alberta bills of rights and imposed back to work & a 4 year ban on more collective bargaining or strikes.

Alberta is Not a democracy right now. And that's entirely on her. Sue her. Recall her. Recall them all.

By using s33 pre-emptively, the UCP is not simply admitting that their laws are breaching Charter rights. (Governments have done that before.)

By foregoing judicial review, they are further admitting that their laws cannot be justified in a democratic society.

The UCP must think that Albertans are gullible fools. They forget that we are aware of the high level of corruption & incompetence within the UCP. Even though there has not been a public inquiry, the info that is in the public domain is appalling. I will never trust them to manage a pension plan.
The resolution book is out for the upcoming UCP convention — and even after it has become abundantly clear that the VAST majority of Albertans oppose the idea, the UCP base is still pushing to pull our province out of the Canada Pension Plan (CPP).

Alberta’s "Recall Them All" graphic is a stark visual warning. When this many MLAs face active recall efforts (green/blue/red), it signals a crisis of accountability & public disconnect. Too entrenched in arrogance and entitlement? Albertans are clearly not being served. #ABleg #ABpoli #RecallTemAll

This choir is incredible.
My dad sings in an incredible semi-professional choir in Portland and I’ve heard them sing this so many times and I cannot tell you how jealous I am that I don’t get to be one of the voices you never hear but you couldn’t live without who makes this sound possible

I think folks should be making a bigger fucking deal about how our Premier is saying out loud that the judicial branch shouldn’t be a check and balance against the legislative and executive branches. That notion is one of the pillars of modern democracy itself. calgaryherald.com/news/premier...
Premier Danielle Smith says courts should be more 'constrained' in making decisions
Alberta premier Danielle Smith commented on the justice systems involvement in deciding matters like the use of the not withstanding clause.

Hi Bluesky 👋

Small life update: I’m at the centre of a multimillion dollar lawsuit in Alberta launched by a failed candidate for Jason Kenney’s UCP

It may be the longest and most expensive media trial in Canadian history

I’m ready to go public about it and I want to share more details with you 🧵
