I said what I said. #cdnpoli #PPC

June & July: Experts warning of a 4th wave in Alberta and the journalists who report on their warnings are repeatedly attacked by top government officials, accused of fear mongering and not wanting the pandemic to end.

Today: "Kindness matters."

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

Wow.

This should be alarming to all Albertans.

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

[Artists For Life @AFLyeg]

No thank you.

[Dr. Cristina Stasia 🇺🇦 she/her @CristinaStasia]

Me too! If only I was in a position of formal authority to directly intervene in that reality & make a concrete difference in the lived realities of women in Alberta so @JanisIrwin could stop raising awareness about inequity. Like maybe #UCP Minister of Status of Women? 🤔#ableg

[Dr. Cristina Stasia 🇺🇦 she/her @CristinaStasia]

I am excited to teach @lougheedcollege first course for professionals: The Art & Danger of Adaptive Leadership. This is our first partnership w @uaextension & I would be grateful if you could help us promote this new leadership development course https://t.co/CkvEIufg1V #yeg #yyc

More evidence of Mike Nickel’s sound judgement... I expect Jordan Peterson will be along shortly #yegcc #yegvote #yeg

Me on a staff call with new peers - aka “how to wow the youths”

Young person: (responding to my comment about me using my ceiling fan) oh, if the fan is on, it must be warming up in Canada?

Me: Nah. Just means I’m over 40.

Reindeer Cyclones are a real thing... a swirling mass of threatened reindeer stampeding in a circle making it impossible to target an individual.. here the fawns are in the middle

This herd is on Russia’s Kola Peninsula, in the Arctic Circle

[Janis Irwin @JanisIrwin]

Good morning to everyone who continues to denounce racism and white supremacy, no matter how angry or uncomfortable it makes some people.

[Janis Irwin @JanisIrwin]

I want to thank you all for your love and support.

This act of vandalism has left me sad and angry, but it needs to be said: this is just a fraction of what racialized folks and members of the LGBTQ2S+ community face every day.

hundreds in edmonton marching through downtown with tiki torches and 'make america great again' hats chanting "no more lockdown."

Cleanups? They are human beings. #yegcc #yeg #eps

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

Thank you! I would be nowhere without the women whose footsteps I dance in. While reciting my poem, I wore a ring with a caged bird—a gift from @Oprah for the occasion , to symbolize Maya Angelou, a previous inaugural poet. Here’s to the women who have climbed my hills before.

[Courtney Theriault @cspotweet]

On a very serious pun note:

How has no political party trotted out "When they go Aloha, we go higher?"

[Artists For Life @AFLyeg]

Speak up, Alberta. This is horrific.

[Jyoti Gondek @JyotiGondek]

I’ve been strong through this pandemic, for my family, for the people I serve & for myself.

I’m broken today. Soldiers of Odin walk the streets of my city, filled with hate for people like me, while so many silently watch it happen.

Speak up. Stop the hate. If not us, then who?

[Don Iveson @doniveson]

Today, @HonAhmedHussen and I happily announced that the $17.3 million from the federal government’s Rapid Housing Initiative will build 80 new units of supportive housing in the neighbourhoods of King Edward Park and Wellington. #cdnpoli #yeg #yegcc
