@TerribleMaps If by "Executive Head" a Prime Minister qualifies, the lovely (and talented) Ebba Busch is Prime Minister of Sweden.

@ELC_Alberta The Plan For Parks says parks are for people (they’re not; the Parks Acts says so). It barely mentions wildlife, never mind protecting habitat. Coincidence that Parks - by definition, protected areas - are not in the Ministry of Environment and Protected Areas? I think not.

Earlier this year, the Alberta government released two major policy documents: the Plan for Parks and the Crown Land Recreation and Conservation Strategy. Together, these two policy documents guide how all public lands in the province are managed and protected.

@PolymarketIntel Spoken as a guy who has never admitted wrongdoing or apologized for anything, ever. He’s incapable of it.

Reporter: Will you apologize to Pope Leo? Trump: No, because Pope Leo said things that were wrong, he was very much against what I'm doing with regard to Iran. He’s weak on crime. He went public. I’m just responding to Pope Leo. There’s nothing to apologize for.

@grizzlygirl87 @AnneWHilborn Again, illustrating why paying for commutes is unreasonable.

@RyderDAR @AnneWHilborn Sometimes that's not possible for some people though. Not everyone makes enough $$ to live within a 20 minute commute of where they work. House prices go up significantly in some areas because of proximity. 🤷 We chose to live where we are, knowing that there would be a commute.

Yes!! This is a real frustration of mine. Why should I have to donate my time and money to my employer just in order to do my job? Commuting is travel for work.

@ABWilderness I sent a letter, too. I was hoping for more.

@RyderDAR Hi Derek, you might be interested in our recent comments on the proposed Fortress Mountain Resort: -albertawilderness.ca/fortress-all-s… -biosphereinstitute.org/fortress-mount…

@Bowhuntingbsfan I am. It's nice not to.

Back to work in the rain, hail and snow. I need to retire

@grizzlygirl87 @AnneWHilborn If they pay for your commute, they should have a say in where you live, since that controls what they will pay. Since that's a non-starter, so is the idea of paying for a commute. In 32 years of working, I only once lived more than a 20 min walk from my office. Live closer.

@AnneWHilborn I feel this so hard. I have a 40 minute commute each direction, every day.

@Tatarigami_UA One can only hope.

MAGA is convulsing on the floor over Orban’s loss, not because they care about Hungary, a place most of them couldn’t find on a map, but because it reminds them their own wannabe authoritarian can be voted out too, and that their movement will end up in the trash bin of history

@YourAlberta We shared how it should be managed in the early 1980's under inclusive consultation work by the Lougheed government. Now you're ignoring what we said and pushing ahead "All Season Resorts" that are exactly what Albertans said they did NOT want in K-Country.

Help shape the future of the Ghost-Kananaskis area. Until June 5, you can share input on how land should be managed. Feedback will help inform the development of a draft Ghost-Kananaskis Sub-regional Plan. Have your say: alberta.ca/ghost-kananask…

@AB_Enviro Really? Then how did that exact info fail to inform the decisions around the All Season Resorts like Fortress? No ecosystem protection there. Just habitat destruction of threatened species like Grizzly Bears. #DevelopmentOverWildlife #NoProtectionJustProfits

Wildlife population surveys and long-term planning work helps inform decisions that protect ecosystems and the animals that call our province home like the Swift Fox. Read how we monitor wildlife in Alberta: alberta.ca/albertas-speci…

@CTVCalgary What a horrible proposal to ram through.

@DontCallMeDebby Waoooj

Soulful

No, he’s from Scandal.

@PolymarketIntel Fixed it. “Make no mistake about it. None of this DISASTROUS MESS would have been possible without the courageousLY STUPID leadership and ironING BOARD ALUMINUM-FOIL clad BRAIN DEAD determination of President Trump.”

We’re keeping our promise: to rebuild, rearm and reinvest in the Canadian Armed Forces.

@OccupyDemocrats @JohnCleese Exactly what the Orange dude wanted.

BREAKING: ABSOLUTE ISOLATION! Trump is left out in the cold as the UK holds an emergency meeting with 30 other countries to resolve the Hormuz Crisis … and the US is completely excluded! More than 30 countries held a virtual meeting to figure out how to get oil tankers moving again through the Strait of Hormuz after Trump’s war shut it down. The meeting is being chaired by the United Kingdom’s foreign secretary, and the United States wasn't even invited! This is a stunning development. For decades, the U.S. Navy has been the guarantor of freedom of navigation in critical waterways like the Strait of Hormuz. Now, under Trump, America is sitting on the sidelines while allies try to clean up the mess he created. The illegal war Trump started has left the global economy reeling and shows no sign of abating as Marines prepare to deploy, the Iranians dig in, longstanding alliances that secured geopolitical stability crumble. Now, he’s so incensed America’s longstanding allies they don’t even want his minions at the table to help fix the crisis he caused. If Trump abandoning America’s traditional role as protector of freedom of navigation while allies scramble to reopen the Strait of Hormuz disgusts you, like and share to call it out: This isn’t America First, it’s America AWOL!
