Do kids in Alberta generally pass their learners permit exam on the first try these days?

Let's be honest about this proposed TikTok ban coming out of America.

1. It's ironic that the party of "small government" wants to ban anything.

2. It's not about China having your data.

3. TikTok scares old conservative dudes as it is a place where young people organize and share ideas.

So Donald Trump is threating the sovereignty of Canada, Greenland, and Panama.

Please tell me why Danielle Smith, the elected leader of a Canadian province, would be going to his inauguration?

If she does, she is a traitor.

I am sure all who are mad at Trudeau for prorogation of parliament were equally mad when Harper did it in 2008, right?

Sometimes I wonder if God, or whatever higher being you believe in, created fireworks as a means to cull the herd.

When you have a government that invests far too little in education relative to population growth, that also has a privatization agenda, this is the result.

I am just going to say this...I am over mashed potatoes. I mean, unless they have a peppercorn demi-glaze or something, sure.

But I will die on the hill that a proper roasted potato that is so crispy on the outside is a vastly superior potato. The taste, the texture. Everything about it is better.

It doesn't fit the corporate media owner's goals. They are all connected. The wealthy need people to work for them to continue to accrue capital.

I heartily agree with this article, especially the part where it is admitted that the healthcare system in the U.S. does not work the way it should. Healthcare should be a human right, not a commodity. When it is monetized, humans who need care are seen as expenses.

I watched my mom suffer and die from pancreatic cancer. MAID wasn't an option for her, but I am willing to bet that as hard as it would have been for us, she would have done it.

The fall of Assad, reportedly, leaves me cautiously optimistic. However, it makes me think about the Arab Spring and the mood of optimism surrounding it at that time.

I hope this truly bring a wave of positive change for the Syrian people, and all oppressed peoples.
