We don't spend enough time making fun of people who refer to their spouse as their "partner." Arguably one of the first major milestones on our mass descent into giving wussy names to literally everything.

@DavidMcLA You’re totally right: the concerns can’t or won’t be addressed. That’s why separation is the best solution

This list is impossible to address in a referendum campaign. Would plunge the country into a series of constitutional crises with years of distraction and dissension. But perhaps separatists already know that.

Tonight I’m at The Grand to watch @jkenney and @ikwilson debate Alberta independence. I’ll write up my full thoughts on the debate over the next couple of days, but for now, here’s a reminder of what I said about the issue a year ago:

I'm sorry, but this cartoon about Stephen Colbert in The Globe is ridiculous. Colbert was not a pillar of democracy. He's a comedian and not a very good one. His show was bloated in terms of staff compared to audience size and ratings, that made him vulnerable. This is overblown.

@mattgurney Misinformation such as the notion there are mass graves? The misinformation-spreaders have had the platform ever since the ‘truth’ and ‘reconciliation’ commission.

I like and respect Niigaan a lot. I've had the pleasure of interviewing him many times over the years. Smart, thoughtful man. In response to this, I'd say that he's correct, but also sidestepping the issue of whether or not this show was, like, wrong.

An Indigenous-led, satirical show production has been paused over controversy from guests who say they felt misled. Niigaan Sinclair says the issue has given fodder to those who spread misinformation about residential schools. Watch more Truth & Politics: youtu.be/_pE77Z6hhsE

@DIYinvestor @338Canada You've never been in rural Alberta obviously. You could paint a rock blue and run it in a provincial election and it would win at least 60% of the vote. Rural Albertans regularly vote against their own best interests because they've "always voted conservative"

@TristinHopper I don’t think it gets better. Bedrock values and institutions are gone. Integrity, autonomy, self reliance… these are ideas of the past, replace by a culture of handout harvesting and grievance hierarchies. It’s fucking gross. I’m sorry Tristan. I know you loath doomerism.

I vacillate pretty regularly between overwhelming gratitude at what this country has, and deep, primal fear that it is in permanent decline.

@monkey_peter @Prominent_Bryan Dude, why are you so angry? Are you an Albertan? If not, won’t you be happy to see a province full of people like me separate? You can live in a neo-liberal shithole comforted by the government media and never encounter a contrary view. Why do you want us to stay so badly?

Tim Hortons announces plan to hire 10,000 local job seekers. After years of telling us that Canadian youth were "too lazy" to work and that only TFWs could pour coffee, Tim's is trying to win back lost support. This is a PR stunt from a company that betrayed Canadians.

"If Alberta hopes to achieve greater autonomy within Confederation, it will be won not through grievance or defiance but by lawful and responsible assertion of political will within Canada’s existing constitutional framework. By framing autonomy as an exercise of responsible government – a core doctrine of Canada’s constitutional tradition – the discourse will shift from political protest to institutional legitimacy..."

@mattgurney Journalism requires that issues and positions be treated fairly. This is a No Fucking Brainer. You’re lighting your remaining credibility on fire. All to denigrate a movement you dismissed last year as a few fringe far right deplorables. You guys sound scared.

@HadfordMichael @mattgurney I had one too! I listen to a lot of podcasts, and these guys suck. Straight down the middle of conventional thought, every time. There’s not a status quo they won’t defend. But what’s worst is their penchant for self-reference and aggrandizement. Especially Jen. It’s tiresome.

@mattgurney Matt and Jen are adult narcissistic babies in panic mode. Jenn’s self-aggrandizing declaration of leading the federalist cause is cringeworthy. And Matt, with his self-described cold, logical Vulcan mind, has the emotional awareness of a toddler. Bullied as a child.

I remember when this story first came out, there were a few things I was cautious about. I was vocal about the media term "mass graves". Initially their findings were based on ground penetrating radar, in which you confirm the anomalies by excavation. From the accounts of the story, it sounded like this was their next step. Today, people are filling in their own narrative because there is a lack of information. Or the information provided lacks the next steps. But technology is changing and there are ways of limiting the uncertainty without excavating. "When radar is combined with two other search methods – human-remains detection dogs and a new technology called soil spectroscopy, searchers can determine with almost 100-per-cent certainty whether buried remains are present, according to Kisha Supernant, Director of the University of Alberta’s Institute of Prairie and Indigenous Archaeology." Searches like these take time. With a combination of new technology, we will get answers.
