I like these ones the best. The slower shutter speed makes them more vibrant than my own eyes could see with the yard lights on, but they’re still some of the brightest I’ve seen in the backyard. #NorthernLights #Saskatchewan

‘A Ukrainian witch kicks the crap out of Russian soldiers’: the new wave of horror films taking on Putin’s army
Homegrown, female-driven scary movies in which witches and zombies lay waste to invading troops are proving popular in Ukraine. But why seek out horror on screen if you have so much of it in real life?

I worked as a public health nurse for 17 years, we tried very hard to keep immunization rates up, but misinformation and disinformation has been winning the battle & here we are… Measles Elimination Status in 🇨🇦 GONE.
We need better leadership & it sure isn’t coming from provincial governments.

And just like that, we lose our measles elimination status after 27 years. Three decades of work, gone.

"Subsidizing a dying oil & gas industry and scaling back climate spending moves us in exactly the wrong direction. It is a costly blunder, mainly to the benefit of foreign fossil investors, that makes our economy less competitive in the long-term." #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2025/11/04/o...
Oil and gas trumps climate action in brutal federal budget
The budget makes clear that fossil fuel production for export is a central pillar of this government’s economic strategy — and that it won’t let climate measures get in the way.

Hi Bluesky 👋
Small life update: I’m at the centre of a multimillion dollar lawsuit in Alberta launched by a failed candidate for Jason Kenney’s UCP
It may be the longest and most expensive media trial in Canadian history
I’m ready to go public about it and I want to share more details with you 🧵

Weakening the greenwashing rules is a direct gift to Pathways, who seem to have entranced Carney. He's also giving them a major tax credit (but rest assured they still want more federal money to operate).

Not-so-fun facts. Provincial governments are responsible for funding post-secondary institutions and the percentage amount they're contributing has decreased in the last 20 years. This has resulted in higher tuition fees and fewer tenure track positions.
