This is why the progressive left in Canada needs to care a hell of a lot more about national security and defense than they currently do.
We purport to care about health care. We need to be serious about the full range of threats to public services.

The Alberta UCP never campaigned on denying health care for trans youth. Doctors warn these laws will drive up depression and suicide. Now they’re hiding behind the notwithstanding clause.

When I was a kid, the dedicated teachers at St. Rose School in Edmonton showed up every day to set my peers and I up for success.
A few weeks ago, I had the chance to go back and thank the teachers doing the same for the next generation #WorldTeachersDay.
