Let’s be clear on this: Danielle Smith is ripping up the Charter of Rights & Freedoms to take away rights from the most vulnerable people in Alberta. And she’s doing it to protect herself from the militant wing of her own party, nothing more. Hope it’s all she’s ever remembered for in the long run

“The US could soon lose
its standing as a country
that has eliminated measles,”
which is yet another reminder
that this is not

XKCD with another comic relevant to my interests.

One of the things CASARA (Canada's AIR SAR unit) is track down spurious EPIRB/PLB signals. A friend of mine once tracked one to the dump in Sechelt, British Columbia.

Sometimes badly wired electronics can send a false alarm.
