@wyattsharpe8 Some people want to be left alone. They don't want government hand outs either.

Hey gang, just floating options for doing cool stuff this summer… Let’s say I organize a curated adventure…history mystery, Whisky Wednesdays type thing where we get on a bus and go somewhere and I take you around on a tour. Like a school field trip for us GenX folks, but it’s fun. Presentations, hikes, pubs and such. Would you pay & sign up for this kind of a thing?

@acoyne What’s wrong with this, when Quebec politicians openly have been trying to separate for decades?

Alberta’s NDP Caucus has obtained video evidence that appears to show that a senior member of the United Conservative Party (UCP) party executive and a member of the UCP Caucus staff, people that are in the Premier’s inner circle, attended the April 16 online meeting of the Centurion Project. This meeting provided training to volunteers on how to use the separatists’ project database that is at the centre of this data breach of three million Albertans’ electoral data. The Alberta NDP Caucus obtained a recording of the Centurion Project’s April 16 online meeting, attended by 80 individuals. The attendee list and a video recording of the call identify that a ‘Rob Smith’ and an ‘Arundeep Sandhu’ were in attendance. The President of the UCP is named Rob Smith and the UCP Caucus Director of Stakeholder Relations is named Arundeep Sandhu. Alberta’s New Democrats have passed this recording on to the RCMP as they continue their investigation. This obtained video also shows Centurion Project members demonstrating how to use a database to search for personal information of Albertans by searching for the name and address of former Alberta Premier Jason Kenney. Jason Kenney’s personal information was shared on screen with all meeting attendees. This video appears to show the database that was built using the unauthorized electors list that was the subject of an injunction issued by the Court of King’s Bench on April 30, 2026. Premier Smith must immediately confirm whether Rob Smith and Arundeep Sandhu identified in the video are the same individuals that are associated with the UCP party and caucus. If these were the same UCP associates, the Premier must also explain: -Why were senior UCP officials attending the meeting? Were they directed to attend? -How she can claim, as recent as yesterday, that she only learned of this data breach from police statements on April 29-30, published almost two weeks after this meeting took place? -Why was it not reported or disclosed by any UCP or any government official to the RCMP and Elections Alberta that the Centurion Project appears to have unauthorized access to the electors list? -What actions, if any, she has taken to protect the privacy of Albertans? Albertans deserve answers and transparency from Premier Smith and this UCP government, now.

It’s 7pm in downtown Ottawa and the Tim Hortons attached to the Delta Hotel is closed. Ottawa really is the city that fun forgot.

@intrnetdaughter I think you misunderstand tax brackets: Someone earning $58 k pays $8,120 federal tax total (14% on first $58 k). Someone earning $117k pays $20,181 federal tax, (20.5% btw $58-$117 k). Seems fair, especially since there's provincial brackets in the mix too.

Fire crews hosed down Drake's massive ice sculpture in the middle of downtown Toronto in an attempt to get it to melt faster, saying it posed a risk to public safety. Drake posted the publicity stunt on his Instagram, announcing that the release date of his new album was somewhere inside the blocks of ice, which led to people climbing the structure and hacking away at it with pickaxes. Some even lit open fires atop it to get it to melt faster. When asked about the allocation of police and fire resources, Mayor Olivia Chow said the city has no plans to recoup the costs and that it’s their responsibility to keep the public safe. However, she added she will need to check with the police and fire chiefs. A city spokesperson said a Toronto Fire Service response such as this one is funded through the city’s annual operating budget. #Drake #Toronto #Iceman

Canada drops out of a US-sponsored military exercise in Africa. A byproduct of PM Carney's emphasis on diversifying Canada's foreign links away from the US: the Canadian army's resources are increasingly stretched thin, and Africa falls off the table. theglobeandmail.com/world/article-…

There are always payments, whether you rent or own. Not a market timing decision at all. I do believe, however, that as a 100% equity investor, I have a higher expected return on that capital by investing in index funds vs. owning a home. Having 100% of our net worth liquid brings me incredible peace of mind as well. And having that capital available to buy without it being subject to sale is an advantage. This wasnt the driving factor in our decision but running this calculator also showed a significant benefit for us to renting, which boosted our confidence: research-tools.pwlcapital.com/research/rent-… @benjaminfelix @WarwickBraden @PWLCapital

The proposed CDN High Speed Rail will cost every taxpayer $7,800 for every single ticket sold, during the lifetime of its operation This is based on European adaption of High Speed Rail, using Canada's transport statistics, and common sense🧵
