I love this city! We were trying to film a campaign video tonight and I had to keep fending off wildlife! When I wasn’t getting distracted by the literal squirrel 🐿️ running up and down the tree, I was having to keep an eye on both the beaver 🦫 and the cobra chickens. #t8n #stalbert #sturgeonriver

I’m so jealous that the folks in #calgary confederation get to vote for this guy. I’ve been listening to Corey for years on various podcasts. Intelligent, rational, balanced, fair… I can’t imagine a better candidate. You know what to do Calgary. #YYC
👋Some news

I’m running for Mark Carney's Liberals in Calgary-Confederation.

I live here, work here, raise my kids here. I want to offer representation that understands the economy and the public interest and be an Alberta voice standing up for Canada at a challenging time. 🧵(1/X)

@ctheriault.bsky.social Hi Courtney! Great “rant” on the radio this AM! Where might I get a copy or listen again? I’d love to share with my Social 10 class as we discuss Canadian Identity. I’m going to show them the original as well

No they don’t. Canada and Mexico want none of this. They want the president of the United States to respect and abide by the trade treaty he negotiated with them - and not make up bogus pretexts for plunging us all into a gratuitous no win economic debacle.

MFer I grew up before NAFTA. I didn't have an avocado until I was 15 years old. I ate lunch in a Zellers cafeteria. I thought Robin Hood was just a guy who made flour.

I was made for this moment.

Dear Sanewashers,

Given that RFK Jr has been catastrophically wrong – and incapable of learning – about vaccines, HIV, 5G, mass shootings, etc., etc., why should he be trusted to understand and sensibly apply the science on food, healthcare systems, or, well, ANYTHING?

From our own Jason Gregor…

Oilers D-men goals against at 5x5 since November 1st:
Nurse: 2
Stecher: 8
Kulak: 11
Emberson: 12
Ekholm: 16
Bouchard: 17
Nurse has lowest GA among all NHL D-men, also has the highest GF% (80%) and lowest GA/60. Dominant six weeks for him.

What's the weirdest nonsense your red state governor has gotten up to?

My red state governor helped fund a creationist museum that has a diorama showing Noah putting stegosaurs on the ark.

Until Danielle Smith & the UCP take orphan wells and oil field reclamation seriously, this can’t be considered anything but ideological. They simply can’t imagine a world transitioning away from fossil fuels. www.alberta.ca/release.cfm?...

“We want to protect landowners, municipalities and taxpayers from unfairly having to cover the costs of renewable energy reclamations in the future.”

In the context of our oil and gas liabilities, irony is so dead that its murder is a cold case.

NEW: Alberta has quietly opened cougar hunting in a provincial park.

It's the latest in a slew of changes to hunting rules from Alberta Parks and Forestry Minister Todd Loewen, a hunter whose family owns a hunting business, @drewanderson.bsky.social reports.
