Somewhere, David Peterson is heaving a sigh of relief to no longer be the cautionary tale

Bit of an oopsie daisy there by David Eby

McGill’s law school receives roughly 1,500 applications for just 180 spots.

It gave one of those spots to a convicted murderer in his mid-60s, who will never pass the good character requirements to practice, and who violated his parole multiple times.

Yes, I've also heard that Brad Bradford will sell off sunlight to corporate investors. We cannot let that happen

@rmohamed_yow The sticker budget when she becomes a toddler will be astronomical, however

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith fed a stray cat, in hopes that it would go away. But stray cats don’t do that. Now she's in a world of trouble https://t.co/uqTsNMEyJe

@AdamZivo Excellent. Glad to hear you’re on the mend

He also raised nearly $35,000 to help defend against this “politically-motivated” police investigation!

STORY, updates to come: Edmonton former journalist Duncan Kinney has admitted to spray painting a bust of Ukrainian World War II leader Roman Shukhevych with the words "actual Nazi," then writing about it, claiming he didn't know who did it. https://t.co/Hiiaes3kx8

Classless. It goes without saying that few would tolerate pundits and lobbyists laughing about how “ugly” a female politician is.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Kory Teneycke isn't a fan of Jamil Jivani

@tylerblack32 There is no decision that remotely compares to ending a life. No point in trying to draw parallels

[Robyn Urback @RobynUrback]

Literally everything about euthanizing someone who resists at present, but consented in the past is hard. We shouldn’t pretend anything about this is straightforward. These are agonizing decisions, and we should acknowledge them as such

[Tyler Black, MD @tylerblack32]

If my advance directive says "please give me MAiD when my dementia gets to the level that I'm a burden on my loved ones", them the answer is you give me MAiD, not respond to my delirious protests.

If you don't know how to "interrogate delirium or confusion", you shouldn't be a doctor.

There is NOTHING HARD about this scenario, except if you don't understand how brains work.

Only Hegseth and his merry band of idiots would think it a good idea to livestream the execution of a radical jihadi

[The Associated Press @AP]

BREAKING: The Pentagon says it will livestream the firing squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan. https://t.co/LDCCkdNYe2

This is the right decision. Canada is already struggling with proper guardrails for and assessment of Track 2 cases. It would be incredibly irresponsible to open up a brand new track

[Sean Fraser @SeanFraserMP]

@MarjoriePLC When it comes to mental illness, serious concerns remain about whether MAID requests can be assessed safely and consistently. For that reason, Canada does not intend to move ahead with the scheduled expansion of MAID for mental illness.

[Robyn Urback @RobynUrback]

@elmwooddynasty Yes

David Eby is a shrewd, confident competitor.

He will challenge anyone currently suffering from a stomach virus to a hot-dog-eating contest. He will dare any chess champion to a tournament when they are sleeping.

It’s like I always say: when your spouse tries to kill you, you should reflect on what you did to make him angry

[Nora Loreto @NoLore]

When your pilots are trying to kill you, maybe you need to wake up to how the world sees the crimes facilitated by your society? And actually ... do something?
