This Demetrios clown can’t make it through a single interview without, backpedaling or lying. Blames immigrants. Yup. Blames negotiations. Check. Avoids accountability. For sure. Call up some of the Forever Canadian people, get this failure recalled Calgary. Do. It.

Following the unravelling of the UCP corruption being exposed is a Valentine’s box of chocolates for my soul. You never know what you might get.

Oh look Dale McFee MHCaramel bites? Todd Loewen conflict of interest nut cluster? AHS milk chocolate with Turkish delight?

Well you know how the old saying goes:
“When the Prayer Breakfast grifters are away, Procurement will potentially attempt to notify the public of institutional malfeasance at play.”

Two friends clasping arms. One named crap weather and the other named bad UCP announcements. Both meaning it’s the start of a weekend in Alberta.

I can imagine the ways the UCP will fuck this up.

Once, I high-fived Brian Jean at a K-Days Parade. I am now formally rescinding that high five because he doesn’t deserve it and “housekeeping”.

Also, coal!? Last I heard Santa just gives dead batteries to bad kids, because even he knows coal is a dumb idea.

I’m not sure if I expected the significant others of hockey players to be possibly helping the revitalization of our city’s nightlife but it sounds neat. Alannah Mozes could buy the Princess Theatre and just keep it a theatre. Please.

The eventual photos of uncomfortable UCP members watching the inauguration on their phones from a hotel bar will be a soothing balm to what might be a wild day. Other than, you know, us taxpayers still paid for the trip. Shit.

With the weird Snow Squall and then a sudden deep freeze this weekend, is there an over/under on which UCP member will be the first to accuse the Mark Carney of being able to control the weather?

“He was here today, coincidence?”

After META updates policy to allow being a complete asshole to other humans, Starbucks saying you gotta buy something to hang out in their shops seems pretty mild. Missed opportunity to finally allow baristas to write “stupid cock face” on to-go cups.

After a successful week of booking a traitor’s holiday, blinding old people and children, and plotting the poisoning a watershed, this UCP government decided to give themselves a raise. Annnd It’s only Thursday, at least they’re efficient at being totally garbage people.
