One of the highlights of my political career was walking onto Juno Beach with 100 year old veteran Ernest Côté who was the last living Canadian involved in the planning of D-Day. A Franco-Albertan, he embodied the exceptional nature of Canada. 🇨🇦 1/2

🇨🇦 Sources: #Canada could boost fighter fleet numbers to 140.

Basically, sticking with 72 to 88 F-35 but also adding another 70 #Gripen.

CBC: "According to various sources"

Alberta to hold referendum on whether to remain in Canada https://t.co/NF67ziA79X

La juge Leonard, en Alberta, fait l'erreur de considérer le référendum comme le dénouement du processus d’indépendance, alors que, dans le cadre constitutionnel canadien, il n’en est que l’élément déclencheur, mon entrevue:

One thing that struck me: there's nothing in this decision that neatly sums things up in plain language. I don't know if that was deliberate, and these were very technical questions of law, but it was something I noticed.

May 12, 1885, marked the final day of the Battle of Batoche.

It was one of many moments that ensured a robust Francophone presence would not endure in the new Canadian West.

In the names of towns like Beaumont, St. Paul, Lac La Biche, and Morinville, you can still see the traces of a vision that was intended to be far greater.

In new video, Erskine-Smith chief scrutineer, Andreas Katsouris, says he's "embarrassed" by what he saw on Sat. Says he's worked elections worldwide - incl. poor countries without strong democratic traditions - "and they run their elections better than we run ours in our party."

Mali kicked out the French, and brought in the Russians (as subsequently did Niger and Burkina Faso.) May have some regrets soon.

[Alexander Clarkson  @APHClarkson]

Quite extraordinary. However deeply flawed the French-led European mission was, it never experienced the level of defeat inflicted on the Sahel juntas after they opted for Russian backing instead.
