None of them filthy ferrners ownin land.

In case we need any evidence of the hysterical xenophobia that infects the UCP base.
We have a resolution that was voted down. A proposal to restrict land ownership to Canadian citizens or permanent residents was voted down.

Vitor Marciano, Energy Minister Brian Jean's chief of staff, spoke against it.

Seconds after I submitted my chapter for @duanebratt.bsky.social & @jlisayoung.bsky.social 's new book on the Smith govt, @carrietait.bsky.social et al. published their latest piece on the CorruptCare scandal.

Below is a table from my chapter with R. Mendoza. How many conditions do you spot?

This is always the problem with hyper specific grievance groups. The second they step outside of their tight boundaries. They eat their young. It's a problem for the left and the right. The more extreme you are, the harder it is.

Thankfully, it acts as a natural balance.

Jason Kenney ultimately got toppled by his own party's base because he took some tepid steps, belatedly, on COVID-19.

Based on the crowd reaction at the UCP convention this weekend, Danielle Smith might get turfed because she tried to co-operate, however reluctantly, with Ottawa.

Team Homan defeats Team Black to sweep the best-of-three Olympic Trials Final.

And Team Homan, ranked number one in the world, is now Team Canada at the 2026 Winter Olympics in February.

Danielle Smith was supposed to deliver her keynote an hour ago. We're still waiting.

I suspect she might have had to do some rewriting of her speech after the reception she received last night

Did you know that Elf has a lot of Canadian connections?
The Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver became the North Pole, a haunted hospital in Coquitlam was used for interior sets and even the famous Buddy burp was Canadian!
This is the story of Elf and Canada!

Olympic curling dreams are on the line today in Halifax.

If Team Homan and Team Jacobs win their games today, they will represent Canada at the Olympics in February.

If Team Black or Team Dunstone win, we’re headed to a third and deciding game. Should be quite the day here.

Dunstone scores two in the 9th end.

And takes the lead with one last end to go. Maybe. Extra ends brewing?

It's 8-7 Dunstone heading to the 10th. Jacobs has the hammer.

Assuming every boat Trump and Hegseth blew up contained the amount of drugs they claim, Hernandez was responsible for bringing more drugs into the US than every one of them had combined. By far. And yet, Trump murders 80+ people and counting while pardoning the narco kingpin.

Almost like the UCP is basically anti-Canada

There’s a word for that, I swear
Danielle Smith: "I hope people today feel a lot more confident that Canada works than they did a couple of days ago."
UCP convention crowd: LOUD BOOS
Danielle Smith tried to sell her federal-Alberta energy deal to the UCP convention crowd: tepid applause.
She told them that this proved Canada can work well for Alberta’s interests: loud boos.

This ain’t a base that wants Smith to work with a Liberal PM on a better industrial carbon tax.
