This is a pretty big attack on the First Amendment. And an encroachment on universities' powers to decide what protests to allow and who to expel.....
We need to talk about Trump’s threat to defund universities unless they arrest and expel protesters.

We’re watching classic fascistic institutional capture in real time and if this continues unabated we’re going to look up and live in a world without escape. The time to fight is now.

*UPDATED with response from Calgary Police Chief Mark Neufeld*

Remarkable - he doesn't deny that the ASIRT review was set up to fail.
SCOOP: I got a copy of the Calgary police chief’s hand-written notes from May 9 and 10, which show that he discussed the dismantling of a 🇵🇸 encampment at UofC with three Cabinet ministers and the premier’s chief of staff.

For four years, the Alberta government has buried the 2020 Medical Examiner's report on Substance Toxicity Deaths in Alberta.

I forced the report out through a freedom of information request.

This is really extremely bad: withholding urgent public health studies because they’re not convenient for the president’s political narrative.
It's not just that officials have blocked CDC from publishing bird flu studies

Scientists were ordered to come up with studies on health risks of wildfires instead

That came as the president was criticizing the California governor's handling of fires

The most aggravating thing in all this (to me) is the sheer number of you, who believe Black people got high-paying jobs on account of their skin color and not their qualifications. That standards were lowered for us, when the truth is the bars are 10 times higher for us.

"Reinventing the residential school system"

Glad to see Dr Monty Ghosh condemning Compassionate Intervention plans, adopting strong words of Dr Esther Tailfeathers.

Forced abstinence cannot coexist with Truth & Reconciliation.

Will grocers in Canada be prevented from hiking costs of non-tariffed food? Because I can see them yanking up costs to just below U.S. products, taking the difference and then acting like the good guys cuz it's still "cheaper."

Worse: they're raising the cost of childcare for those who can least afford it in order to reduce them for those who can.
The UCP eliminated the child care subsidy today. This means low income families will now pay $300+ MORE per month than they were before. Once again, the UCP is raising costs on moms and dads.

We understand that Albertans need real measures to make life more affordable. We are listening.
Another scenario: same daycare, full time, but child is 18 months old and family income is less than $119,000. That family currently pays $217/month and receives a $266/month subsidy. After the change, they will pay $325.26/month and get no subsidy. Their loss is $345.25/month.

I’ve seen a few people asking so just FYI: the media has been told the foreign interference report will be public at 11:45amET tomorrow.
The big, juicy foreign interference report comes out tomorrow!

Do you feel ready for it? Yes? No? Either way, that’s okay!

I’ve got a primer here, with the help of national security expert @stephaniecarvin.bsky.social, that should get you ready to understand what the report says:
