We’re heartbroken to hear of the passing of Kirsty Duncan.
Kirsty was a passionate Member of Parliament and Minister, a champion for science, and deeply committed to serving others.
It's a tremendous loss, and our thoughts are with her loved ones at this time.

Tell me the NHL hates its fans and doesn't actually want to grow the game without telling me the NHL hates its fans and doesn't actually want to grow the game. Can't watch the @edmontonoilers.bsky.social while on vacation in Quebec. Why do regional blackouts exist?

The UCP touts itself as a small, freedom-loving government.
Objectively, using the notwithstanding clause goes against both of those notions.

We’re hearing about delays at voting stations across the city, and we know it’s frustrating - especially for those heading to work or who can’t stand for long periods.
If you’re already in line, please don’t leave -you will still get to vote.
Every voice matters. Every vote counts.

Yes, Carney will be Prime Minister without a seat as the Liberal party members alone elected him, just as Danielle Smith became Premier without a seat as the UCP members alone elected her. It's how our system has always worked, it's not new.

A few thoughts on Canadian fans booing the US anthem:
Thought 1: If the Americans win on Saturday and/or win the whole tournament, it will be because they were the best team and deserved it, and that will be true no matter who tries to pretend that Canadian fans somehow influenced the outcome.

The woman who did O Canada at the #Oilers game tonight was amazing. She sang it up tempo as a march and didn’t make it fluffy. Keep her around for all the anthems!

Not too shabby of a birthday planned for today. Singing some tunes preparing for a show in February, DnD session where we WON’T get killed by a shadow monster, then Japanese Village for dinner. 37 is looking good!

If Bill Lawrence could stop creating comedies that make me cry/breakdown, that would be swell.
Completely unrelated, Shrinking is one of the best comedies I’ve watched since Ted Lasso.
