No big deal, but the Alberta government just increased the fee to submit a citizen initiated petition from $500 to $25, 000. After the separatism initiative was approved, but before Corb Lund's coal mining petition gets re-approved. No political shenanigans going on here.

This is an emotional time of year. Families with little or no means often spend what they have so their kids have something for the season. That compassion means they have no food, not enough for rent, utilities, or even prescriptions. I’ve been helping where I can. Thanks to those who help.
