Tania gestured to the table, with its pens and clipboards. “You live in the riding,” she said. “Are you going to sign?” What happened with the "total recall" of Alberta MLAs?

But the process of continuously campaigning for secession will damage Alberta’s industries and divide us in the mean time.
It’s ironic that those who claim to care about our economy are the ones hurting this province’s prospects the most.
Anger absent of knowledge is dangerous.
Insurmountable troubles would face an independent Alberta—assuming such a lonely creature could even be created. A province can’t unilaterally separate.

I visited Maisie's Magical Christmas House on the north side of Edmonton in 2011 for the first and only time, until tonight. @albertaviews published a photo I took back in 2011 in their December 2025 issue and it inspired me to go back and take some updated shots.

Excellent article by Doug Firby (@TheMobilePhile) in this month's @albertaviews magazine, asking why Alberta ⚡️electricity prices have been so darn high and whether it is time to "take back the power".
Spoiler alerts: 1) the culprits are deregulation and privatization; 2) the article covers the report I prepared for @ABFedLabour, which proposes the solutions: re-establish profit regulation & increase public ownership.
