Former colleague Eric Cline continues to make the case that the people of Saskatchewan are getting ripped off because the government doesn’t have a royalty regime that gives the province a fair return on potash. Call or write your MLA as this ripoff needs to stop!

Trump's 'deal' was always going to fail. Both the extortion of Ukraine and the pro-Russia fake peace. Krasnov lost it when Zelensky criticised Putin, enemy of the free world. America has left the free world and we have just to get used to that and figure out what next with our allies in Europe.
In the end, our generation has often wondered what we would do when confronted with fascism. It's here now.
Fucking Russian agent bone-spur coward rapist scum sitting next to the Churchill of our age.

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist.
He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.
