@SLPang @abbviecanada As a parent of a child who had to endure the pain of Humira injections, I wholeheartedly agree.

[Sherry Pang ☮️ @SLPang]

Living in U.S. now where they have citrate-free #Humira - what a game- changer - pain-free! Shame on pan-Canadian Pharmaceutical Alliance for not approving this. Injustice to patients on this vital treatment. #Crohns #arthritis @abbviecanada

@CPA_AB Calgary Convocation room looks great! Almost time to celebrate!

[Chris Pilger @chrislpilger]

Calgary CPA grads, we are almost ready for you! #CPAGrad

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.

--Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

This is as grim a time as I can remember. It's hard not to feel like there is an army of bad people out there, getting away with awful things. But bad people want good people to feel hopeless. They know people resigned to defeat don't fight back. Don't give them your hope.

@WheatNOil Sadly, the desire to go into elected public service to actually serve the public does not seem to exist any more, across the spectrum.

you're done with covid like i'm done with winter. doesn't change the temperature.

@ShawnKanungo @LucindaLitNYC @SpeakersDotCa @MHEducation Congrats, Shawn! I can always say “I knew him when…”!! 😂

[Chris Jones @EnswellJones]

I believe we began to slip as a society when people got the idea that they could say whatever hurtful, crazy shit they wanted and not face consequences for it. I hope this is the start of a correction.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The irony of "soft skills" is that they're often the hardest to master.

Leadership, communication, collaboration, creativity, and adaptability may not be technical, but they're increasingly vital.

Behavioral, social, and emotional skills are what make humans indispensable.

[Chris Pilger @chrislpilger]

This is great - and too true.

As we live our lives ever more publicly, we have come to prioritize arguing over learning. Elevated Stupidity is the natural result: the eloquent defense of opinions left over from when you were six.

Thrilled to finally announce this! CPA Alberta’s gift to the Haskayne School of Business will create a student commons space for undergrad students at the University of Calgary.

[Chris Pilger @chrislpilger]

@EnswellJones Weird - same thing here in Alberta, half the country away. I long for the days of our youth when these things were happily so rare they led to a (damn good) song...and now I Don’t Like Mondays is stuck in my head.

[Chris Pilger @chrislpilger]

Just got both my father-in-law and mother-in-law their COVID vaccine appointments. Honestly kind of feels like winning the lottery!

[Chris Pilger @chrislpilger]

@deepamaisuria @CPA_AB @NeilPasricha @RPIjobs Thanks for doing this for us, Deepa! Great job!
