On Nov. 21, 1950, two trains collided near Valemount, British Columbia.
The crash killed 21 people and sparked a manslaughter trial against a CNR dispatcher.
The dispatcher was defended by a lawyer named John Diefenbaker, and this trial changed Canadian history.

At what point do we say that Conservatives have given up on Human Rights? This is awful. Trans people deserve respect, not the notwithstanding clause.

Weeks ago, South Korea mocked Trump with a replica of the golden Cheonmachong crown, claiming it symbolized “peace.” In reality, the crown came from the Silla Kingdom, whose king was assassinated after a civil war and kingdom destroyed by corruption & rule for the wealthy.

I really need to get to bed, but I just poked my head out the back door again. This is the view from my deck. All of this is looking south. When the geomagnetic storms are like this, the oval overshoots me and stretches into the US, which is why so many are seeing it tonight. #aurora
