@JasonOnTheDrums Saying Bell is Postmedia's most-read Alberta columnist is like saying he's King Shit of Turd Island.

@lucyhargreaves4 The macro trend is our economy only grows if we poison our water, destroy our environment + give land + tax breaks to corporations????

@jkenney @EvanLSolomon For a while there, I thought Jason had grown up to become a responsible adult. It's reassuring to know that he's the same old bitter punching down culture warrior he's always been.

Tom Green in 2007 explaining to a 39-year old Joe Rogan about podcasts — and how creators can go direct to audience on the internet — on Tom Green’s webshow in Tom Green’s living room while drinking Coronas really was one of the most important moments in modern media history:

Just heard that The Littlest Hobo is being rebooted for the 2026-27 season.
Please don't change the song. Just use the original Maybe Tomorrow written by Terry Bush and John Crossen.

@TomPark1n Not true. Work on your reading comprehension Tom

Good insights from @briantopp into Alberta referendum farce fueled by @ABDanielleSmith stunning incompetence. Why aren't more business / political leaders challenging her nonsense? I will remember their silence. #ableg #abpoli

@djclimenhaga Hard to believe this crypto-annexationist is a Companion of the Order of Canada.

[Derek Raymaker @draymaker]

Mitch is right. The annexationists are here to stay + throw sand in the gears of Canada. Thanks to MAGA + Kremlin backers, they have the money + resources for a prolonged propaganda + disinformation campaign.

"The genie is out of the bottle, it's not going back in."

Mitch Sylvestre was asked on Global News Morning if he'd accept the results of a no vote and stop the separation fight in that case.

He says he might- that it depends on a lot of things- but adds but that the movement won't stop.

@Meta is worth over $1 trillion but they're too cheap to maintain the most basic human guardrail to prevent account hacking. Great work Zuck!

[Jason Koebler @jason_koebler]

New: Hackers have been stealing high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI support chatbot to change the email associated with the account they want to steal.

Shockingly easy, terrible flaw associated with offloading support to AI:

Big development in Sam Mraiche/@ABDanielleSmith healthcare corruption. Judge cites 2 podcasters for criminal contempt for harassing whistleblower Athana Mentzelopoulos. Previously, 1 of these charmers admitted Mraiche lawyer hired him. #ableg #abpoli https://t.co/TLuB8Y8ntp

@DonBraid Seeing as you've been around since the last Ice Age, you know separatists have been around since before Guilbeault was born. Just retire already. You embarrass yourself.

[Derek Raymaker @draymaker]

So everyone is clear, the separatists' would deny @stephenharper & @jkenney Alberta citizenship after independence* because they were born elsewhere.

*The plan isn't Alberta independence, it's annexation by the US.

Albertans deserve to know exactly what some of the leading voices behind separation are advocating: mandatory military service, citizenship based on birthplace, and a vision of society that belongs in the past.

At a time when Calgary is attracting talent, investment, and opportunity from across Canada and around the world, the provincial referendum decision is giving oxygen to a movement that creates uncertainty, division, and risk.

Our city needs more homes, more jobs, more infrastructure, and stronger ties with the rest of Canada and the world. Instead, we're being dragged into a debate that threatens investment, undermines confidence, and distracts from the real challenges facing Albertans.

Calgary's future is as a growing, confident Canadian city. We must be focused on building that future, not legitimizing a movement that puts it at risk.

@Martyupnorth Maybe you can front her some of that MAGA / Kremlin foreign interference cash you've been hoarding.

@ikwilson How much is the Kremlin paying you?
