Un-drafted armchair QB.
Love that the #DallasCowboys victory formation has a tip of the hat to Tom Landry with the O-line pre snap routine

Speaker Mike Johnson really ought to brush up on his Franz von Papen history.

Watching @dallascowboysnews.bsky.social and @lasvegasraiders.bsky.social on #MNF it’s always going to take some getting used to seeing anyone other than Tony Dorsett wearing #33 and Marcus Allen wearing

Andrew Scheer’s best CPC talking point for an MP floor crossing and a resignation is “ this came to a head from these liberal tactics” Looks like Jenni Byrne has got some heavy lifting in the next couple of days. #CNDPOLI

The CPC taking on water. First a floor crossing, the Bloc votes supporting the Liberals defeating Conservatives budget motion and now the resignation of Matt Jeneroux. #CDNPOLI

Still feeling the sting from that #WorldSeries game seven. The good news, MLB pitchers and catchers report February 20th. 107 days and counting.

Read and share widely. Your fundamental human rights are at stake.
And the Winnipeg Free Press nails yet another editorial. #canadasky #cdnpoli #abpoli #abteachers

Danielle Smith - UCP invokes the notwithstanding clause, 1st time in AB since 2000, closure motions to end debate which all but guarantees passing. Then jumps on a plane for the Middle East. This is not democracy at its best. #ABLEG

Got off the plane and walked into a drug store in Ottawa and got my COVID vaccine in under 5 minutes. No line up. No appointment. No cost.

Was even asked if I wanted Moderna or Pfizer.

It’s unconscionable that we can’t get this same level of service in Alberta.

Feels like 1968
I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Finally a small victory - the UCP had to be dragged kicking and screaming, but they are going to at least cover COVID shots for healthcare workers.

It can be done friends, keep at it! #AbLeg

This Drumheller couple just received their Canadian citizenship. They love and appreciate Canada so, with their citizenship certificates in hand, they came to sign the #ForeverCanadian petition.

Thank you! You’re amazing Canadians!!!

Hit a home run - put your head down, drop the bat, run around the bases, because the name on the front is more - a lot more important than the name on the back.
