Charlie Angus: There was a group of young Normandy students, and two young teenage girls read a poem in French to the commemoration ceremonies and to the immense field of the dead. And she said, "We are the children that you never had. We are the children of liberty."
And there wasn't a dry eye in the house, but I always remember because Charles Scott Brown, in his 90s, stood up. And he broke protocol, of course, and he said to those young girls, "Don't cry for any man in this field. They came to free you, and they would do it again if they were asked."
That's what we come from. That is [Canada's] legacy. Do you think that we're going to let the likes of Pete Hoekstra push us around, or Donald Trump and his predator government threaten us? That's what we represent.
I have a passport, thanks.
Why would I trust this government with more of my personal information, when they already leaked the information of 2.9 Million Albertans to their favorite RWNJ?
What'll they track next: credit score? political affiliation? sexual orientation?

If cruelty is not the point, these program cuts are a disaster.
With every voter’s address now out in the breeze, victims of domestic violence are going to end up dead.
You can thank your UCP MLAs.
Like they give a fuck…
A truly intelligent species wouldn’t poison its own drinking water, strip away its topsoil, drive wildlife populations into decline, and create chronic illness through the very food system it depends on.
Every day I am going to post this (permission from Del Schilling).

"As Project 2025 has done in the US, the Free Alberta Strategy has begun to fundamentally alter Alberta politics and society. It’s a reckless and anti-democratic plan that seems hell-bent on destroying Canada."

I’m over here recycling toilet paper roll cores, using my own bags, not running the water when I brush my teeth, while billionaires are blowing up rockets and building water-polluting data centers. It’s hard not to be discouraged.
What do I love about Canada?
When I stop to help a stuck or stranded motorist, I’m often third or fourth in line.
No giant spiders.
Winter makes spring seem warmer than it is.
Long drives are good for thinking.
Kitchen parties and Stan Rogers songs.

The Toronto Blue Jays are in a playoff spot and 1 game below .500 with essentially an entire rotation on the IL, Addison Barger only having 22 ABs, their All Star Catcher out for 6+ weeks, and a player who openly played with vertigo for 3 weeks 😭😭
This is a good baseball team.
