Sinead was a force of nature. A brilliant songwriter & performer whose talent we will not see the like of again. Such passion, such intense presence & a beautiful soul, who battled her own personal demons courageously. Be at peace dear Sinead, you will forever be in our hearts. t

So, a little joke. The FSB are 'picking up people' in russia. Three men end up in a cell, all of them already very much the worse for wear. Finally one of them turns to the others, 'What are you in for?' 'I criticized Girkin.' 'That's funny', says the man, 'I'm here because I support him.' Both of them turn to the third man, hardly recognizable because of the FSB health treatments. 'How about you?' 'Friends,' says their unfortunate cell-mate, 'I am Girkin.'

@Citizen004 I for one think UCC is way out of line on this. Excluding/targeting Russian community is a sure fire way to automatically reduce our allies and harden opinions against your cause. I’m sure many in Alberta ethno Russian community are dissidents. I don’t understand this tactic.

Interesting development. The reason offered for excluding the Russians is "safety". But let's say it was a political statement - a denounciation of Russia. While intention doesn't matter, can one make a political statement & ban a pavilion even it might stigmatize the group. 1/2

We are aware of online comments made by the Executive Director of the Premier’s Office celebrating American politician Robert F. Kennedy Jr., noting he “seems to possess great character.” To celebrate a man who days ago promoted the false conspiracy theory that COVID-19 (1/3)

Fairly certain I passed a field of sunflowers east of Lacombe yesterday (they weren’t in flower yet but they sure looked like sunflower stalks and leaves from the road). Now I really want to grow some.

This may be the greatest fucking hockey card ever. I’m savoring it as one would a fine wine. I detect notes of mullet, Cooperalls, and a Camaro waiting in the parking lot.

I support the Trudeau government’s Bill C-18. It’s long past time that our governments stood up to social media giants like Meta, Google and Twitter. Australia did it. California is doing it. I’m glad our government is doing it, too. It’s about our democracy. Kudos. ✊ #vdnpoli

"We're not backing down on this. This goes to the core of a free and informed society that is able to take responsible decisions in a democracy," says PM Trudeau when asked about possible next steps on C-18 following govt's suspension of its ads on Facebook & Instagram. #cdnpoli

Imagine you were born in 1900. When you're 14, World War I begins and ends when you're 18 with 22 million dead. Soon after a global pandemic, the Spanish Flu, appears, killing 50 million people. And you're alive and 20 years old. When you're 29 you survive the global economic crisis that started with the collapse of the New York Stock Exchange, causing inflation, unemployment and famine. When you're 33 years old the nazis come to power. When you're 39, World War II begins and ends when you're 45 years old with a 60 million dead. In the Holocaust 6 million Jews die. When you're 52, the Korean War begins. When you're 64, the Vietnam War begins and ends when you're 75. A child born in 1985 thinks his grandparents have no idea how difficult life is, but they have survived several wars and catastrophes. Today we have all the comforts in a new world, amid a new pandemic. But we complain because we need to wear masks. We complain because we must stay confined to our homes where we have food, electricity, running water, wifi, even Netflix! None of that existed back in the day. But humanity survived those circumstances and never lost their joy of living. A small change in our perspective can generate miracles. We should be thankful that we are alive. We should do everything we need to do to protect and help each other.

Right now, at 1:09am Kyiv time, Russians are raining missles all over Ukraine from the ships and submarines of their Black Sea Fleet. The Black Sea Fleet sits in Crimea, just out of reach of our own missles. We know exactly where it all sits. If the West merely gave us slightly longer range capability, the Black Sea Fleet would cease to exist in 3 hours time, saving thousands of civilian lives. Western weakness is literally killing us.
