To set the record straight, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said today that about 30 per cent, or 1M, Albertans support independence. This is false. The latest IPSOS poll found about 15 per cent support for separation from Canada when those polled were informed about the "real-world consequences."

Capping rates means insurers seek savings to preserve profits,l. Typically, that means denying claims or reducing coverage - usually for innocent victims like cyclists and pedestrians.
Alberta has capped auto insurance rates at 7.5 per cent for good drivers in 2026, with a new system set to come in 2027. However, a new report has found rate caps do more harm than good.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

I *love* this street transformation in Edmonton, Alberta.
I visited it under construction almost two years ago but more progress is visible in Google Street View.

For those who actually care about evidence-based city-making, there’s a ton of evidence that decongestion pricing has been a massive success in New York City, by every measure of success, and many ways that can’t be measured.
Year 1 data on congestion pricing in Manhattan…
* Vehicle traffic: -11%
* Foot traffic: +3.4%
* Storefront vacancy: -0.9%
* Pollution: -22%
* Revenue for mass transit: $548M
So YES this has been a huge success.
