I feel privileged to be a Canadian.
Rural Saskatchewan can be lonely, good to see so many likeminded humans here.
I’m a progressive Gen X mom & wife.

We watched the #BlueJays game on our flight home from Toronto. Everyone in our section struggled with wifi and kept others informed when screens froze up. Another example of how the team brought strangers together, rooting for our Canadian team. Would have loved to see a win but it wasn’t our night.

Spent the last couple of days at Niagara Falls. This is such a beautiful area and we’ve been lucky to have lovely weather. Definitely a place I’d like to come back to in the future.

We have an early flight tomorrow but can’t go to bed until this Jay’s game is over. #extrainnings #bluejays

Today is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, also known as Orange Shirt Day – a time to raise awareness for the ongoing impacts of residential school and remember the children who never came home.

Women make terrific leaders. Unfortunately the misogynists can’t look past gender to appreciate their value.
I don't like talking about the hate & abuse I received in politics. I don't need sympathy. But we do need change. And I promised to support women & girls who want to go into politics. So here is my story. We need to stop this. Now.

Tammy is right. “After 18 years of population-growth-first governance, Saskatchewan faces infrastructure collapse, healthcare crisis, education system strain, and immigration management challenges that directly result from prioritizing quantity over quality.”

The Population Growth Delusion: Saskatchewan’s “Success” Is Anything But
After eighteen years of counting bodies instead of growing real prosperity, Saskatchewan faces collapsing infrastructure, cultural annihilation, a healthcare disaster, and spiralling public debt.

Make no mistake, everything that’s happening in the United States is being significantly enabled by the right wing oligarch capture of media.
Every other country needs to do everything possible to keep that from happening where they are.
Including protecting the CBC from Poilievre here in Canada.

I was bit by several mosquitoes taking pics in my back yard this evening. Such a pretty sunset. Can’t imagine living any place without these wide open spaces.

Mark Carney does not need to to invite a fascist who doesn't believe women should work and who thinks contraception is evil to come and speak to "understand him better."

Terrible decision out of Saskatchewan today. There are so many better things to spend $1 billion on than keeping polluting, asthma-causing, coal plants open. Literally any other course of action would make more sense than this.
Saskatchewan’s decision to invest nearly $1 billion in coal power is from an era that’s long gone. Not only will it accelerate the climate crisis in the middle of 🇨🇦’s second worst wildfire season on record, there are plenty of options to replace coal. www.theglobeandmail.com/business/art...

I took a few pictures before the big downpour today. We got a bunch of rain this weekend but we still haven’t put our rain gauge up so I don’t know exactly how much.
