@GPAIndiana They’re pins for rollers

Cleaning out my mother's things today and I hit the jackpot—a whole cache of what I can only assume are the tiniest spoons in existence. I've spent the last hour trying to figure out their purpose, and I'm genuinely baffled. 🤔

@brianlilley What’s crazy about this?

We are back to pandemic craziness.

@TristinHopper Ok now you’ve gone too far.

Try to imagine that it's 2035 and Ezra Levant is being sworn in as governor general, because that's essentially how far we've gone in the other direction.

@jonnywakefield Splintery wood and hot metal slides were my Gen X childhood experiences.

Edmonton rebuilt Hawrelak Park and was like “OK let’s toughen these kids up”

@KeruboSk Hang them up

Does anyone else with ADHD have a “wear again” pile? Like clothes you wore out for a bit, not long enough to be dirty, but not clean enough to put back, so they just live in a nearby pile for “later”… or is it just me?

Are Chinese people in Britain chased down the street for what Beijing does to Uighurs? Are Russians here hunted for Ukraine? Are Afghans attacked over how women are treated back home? No. But Jews are singled out, blamed, and targeted for Israel. The hypocrisy isn’t even subtle.

@JohnBouras3230 @PaulStewartII Look at Jeff Rath's proceedings before the law society or the First Nations' litigation where they had to sue him for overbilling. The separatists did not send their best people. Or they did, which is worse.

@PaulStewartII This actually hurts the seperatists movement in Alberta overall. It shows that its being driven by bad actors operating in bad faith. Why should anyone trust voting 🗳️ for these guys? The majority wont

Patrick Lennox, Former RCMP Intelligence Manager, on Alberta’s election data breach: That data—the full names, addresses, and phone numbers of almost 3 million voting age Albertans—circulated for at least a month in the Maple MAGAsphere, but has almost certainly been captured by state based authoritarian adversaries including Russia, China, and the United States. This poses a massive public safety risk and exposes the October 19th referendum process to profound levels of foreign interference from the global far right. Alberta is completely exposed. All of our elections data is in the far right wind. open.substack.com/pub/plennox/p/…

@ABDanielleSmith please look into this

@hell_line0 And it's blue like windshield fluid lol

i keep reading that the average woman only loses 2-3 tablespoons of blood during her period. there’s no effing way. am i insane or is this another example of science not understanding women’s bodies..

@Camoscott1234 @UNSRVAW The judge's bias is what most of us think is relevant.

@AngieJay42 @UNSRVAW For the umpteenth time, no one has said that they were all lying. The question is reasonable doubt. Take it up with the prosecution who failed to properly exclude the possibility that the exams were or could be legitimate medical procedures that patients consented to.

ctvnews.ca/kitchener/arti… Neurologist accused of 48 counts of sexual assaults against 48 of his female patients has been acquitted recently by a male judge. 48! In doing so, the judge dismissed the expert testimony of a female doctor and expert on whether vaginal and breast exams were part of the norm during neurological exams (They are not) We are still a long way from addressing sexism and gender bias in the court systems. This all will serve to further undermine reporting. Victims legitimately ask "what is the point"

Thank you to the @UNSRVAW for drawing worldwide attention to this travesty of justice in an Ontario courtroom. What about you, @SeanFraserMP? Anything to say?

"Fellow Oxford professor Michael Biggs tells me there is ‘a strong case that Mr Rattley is creating a degrading and offensive environment, especially for female students, which would constitute sexual harassment’. ‘Adults should be free to explore their sexual interests in private with other consenting adults, but not to bring them to work’, he adds." @jo_bartosch spiked-online.com/2026/04/29/why…

@Camoscott1234 @UNSRVAW From FORTY EIGHT WOMEN?? None were reliable? Stop and think about how likely that is. Women suffer coming forward, it’s utterly unbelievable that 48 women would endure that if they were lying.

@UNSRVAW Sexism has nothing to do with the reasons given by the judge as you well know. There were clear issues giving rise to reasonable doubt, including credibility and reliability issues from the victims. If you're a SR you have an obligation to not make misleading or baseless claims.

@ColleenBreitkr1 What the heck does this have to do with the Premier? This is a CPSA issue. On that note, they have some explaining to do.

This is the doctors office I was going to go get my knee looked at. We were also going to use it to transition the kids, as they turned 19. This is horrifying. This is what Danielle smith feels is ok!! Wonder if that neurologist will be starting here in Alberta next week.

@Alberta_UCP You had a whole “Alberta is Calling” campaign. Did you just expect single men, without children?

With over 80,000 students arriving in Alberta in just three years alone, mainly due to out-of-control federal immigration policies and record high interprovincial migration, the need for more teachers in our classrooms has never been greater. To tackle this challenge, Education Minister @demetriosnAB announced four new certification pathways to get qualified professionals into the classroom faster. These new certificates will allow final-year education students, internationally trained teachers, tradespeople, and skilled professionals to begin teaching sooner. By expanding the pool of qualified educators, our government is ensuring Alberta students continue to receive world-class instruction.

@Pagmenzies @mattgurney As an Albertan I’m hearing National Energy Program 2.0 with a garnish of CCP style communism. Is that the intent?

@mattgurney Trust me, if that’s all he’s got, it won’t. Albertans actually believe that they have been sharing the wealth created in their province with Canada for a very long time. They are funny like that

Let's hope this translates into Albertan in the way the PM is intending.

@ExnerPirot We're going full communist China, aren't we? And Canadians will smile and smile

“Regulatory support” does not seem like a fair condition by which to extract “profits” above and beyond normal corporate tax rates Effective regulation is not something we bargain with the state for, a privilege; it’s something we expect and are entitled to as citizens

OK I am panicking now “Where there is at the heart of all these projects, including resources, provincial jurisdiction; where the federal government is catalyzing, helping to make the project happen through a tax or other incentive - regulatory support - and at the core there is a commercial business making a profit, it is fair, right, just, smart for Canadians to have a share directly in those profits.”

Hello Julia, sans aucune ironie, c'est top que tu prennes le temps de te renseigner. Mais le problème quand on lit Marx aujourd'hui, c'est qu'on prend pour acquis sa prémisse de départ, alors qu'elle a été démontée scientifiquement il y a plus de 150 ans. Toute la pensée de Marx repose sur la théorie de la valeur-travail. L'idée que la valeur d'un bien vient de la quantité de travail nécessaire pour le produire. Si tu acceptes cette prémisse, alors oui, tout son raisonnement tient. Le capitaliste "vole" la plus-value du travailleur, l'exploitation est mathématique, la révolution est inévitable. Sauf qu'en 1871, trois économistes (Menger en Autriche, Jevons en Angleterre, Walras en Suisse) découvrent indépendamment la même chose : la valeur n'est pas objective, elle est subjective et marginale. Un verre d'eau dans le désert vaut une fortune. Le même verre à côté d'une rivière ne vaut rien. Le travail incorporé est identique. Donc le travail ne détermine pas la valeur. C'est le consommateur qui valorise un bien selon son utilité marginale dans un contexte donné. Exemple concret : tu peux passer 1000 heures à tricoter un pull moche que personne ne veut. Selon Marx, ce pull a énormément de valeur (beaucoup de travail incorporé). Selon la réalité, il ne vaut rien. Parce que personne n'en veut. À l'inverse, Bernard Arnault crée des milliards de valeur non pas parce qu'il "exploite" mais parce qu'il a su anticiper et organiser des désirs humains à grande échelle. La valeur est créée par la coordination, pas extraite par le vol. Cette découverte (la révolution marginaliste) a invalidé tout l'édifice marxiste. Pas pour des raisons idéologiques, pour des raisons scientifiques. C'est pour ça que plus aucun département d'économie sérieux au monde n'enseigne Marx comme un cadre d'analyse valide. On l'enseigne en histoire de la pensée. Maintenant, le truc important. Si ton intention en lisant Marx c'est d'aider les pauvres (c'est une intention noble), alors tu vas être surprise par ce qui suit. Regarde les chiffres de la Banque mondiale. En 1820, 90% de l'humanité vivait dans l'extrême pauvreté. Aujourd'hui, moins de 9%. Cette chute historique ne s'est PAS produite dans les pays qui ont appliqué Marx. Elle s'est produite dans les pays qui ont libéralisé leur économie. Chine post-1978, Vietnam post-1986, Inde post-1991, Pologne post-1989. À chaque fois qu'un pays libéralise, des centaines de millions de gens sortent de la pauvreté en une génération. À chaque fois qu'un pays applique Marx (URSS, Cambodge, Corée du Nord, Venezuela), c'est la famine et les goulags. Ce n'est pas une opinion, c'est l'expérience la plus massive jamais menée en sciences sociales. Plusieurs milliards de cobayes humains, sur un siècle. Donc paradoxalement, si tu aimes vraiment les pauvres, la position la plus cohérente n'est pas d'être marxiste. C'est d'être pour la liberté économique. Parce que c'est empiriquement la seule chose qui a jamais sorti massivement les gens de la misère. Pour creuser, je te recommande trois lectures qui vont changer ta vision : "La Loi" de Frédéric Bastiat (court, lumineux, gratuit en ligne) "La Route de la Servitude" de Hayek "Économie en une leçon" de Henry Hazlitt Bonne lecture, et vraiment chapeau de chercher à comprendre plutôt que de rester dans tes certitudes. C'est rare.

@AdamZivo Good grief what gave that impression? There’s no good faith or open dialogue with these activists.

I applaud Fae for this initiative, which seems rooted in open dialogue, good faith debate, and building bridges through inviting difficult conversations. Regardless of where one stands on trans issues, I hope we can all agree that this approach is good for Canada.

@Harry__Faulkner This man, with respect, needs therapy.

This is from a member of the Progressive Conservative Party of Nova Scotia, btw.
