@DiscussingFilm “Jason Sudeikis is expected to reprise his role”
would seem like THE thing that needs to be definitive before the show is confirmed to return, no?
After 3 weeks of living in YEG, here are few things I learned:
-Unlike BCians, Edmontonians don't hold umbrellas when it snows.
-If you are using the train, there's a button that you need to push to open the train's door. In BC the doors open automatically.
-In Edmonton, you need to tap your transit card twice, when you are getting on and off the bus.
-There's something called "Purple City" and apparently it became illegal. So, I am not gonna explain it.
-Hockey is a religion in Edmonton.
-What is considered a "winter jacket" in BC, is actually a spring jacket in Edmonton.
-The people of Edmonton are the sweetest and most welcoming.
-I am so glad that I am here, in Edmonton, and ready to learn more and embrace Alberta's beautiful culture.🇨🇦❤️
I know I won’t be eating at any restaurant that funds and supports discrimination against the LGBTQ+ community. I hope you’ll join me in boycotting these new locations. #NotMyAlberta#abpoli
This is really good- it brings in real experts and thoughtful, smart people with real lived experience.
The “groomer” name calling bot and troll crowd are crude, divisive -and incorrect.
I think most Albertans are going to be able to watch this with an open mind (and heart).
There are angels walking among us!
This weekend is filled with emotions, gratitude and reflection for me: Tomorrow February 18, 2013 was my sixth & last overdose at Insite supervised consumption site.
When I was revived from where I lay motionless on the floor at booth 5, I looked to the left and noticed Sara the nurse was visibly emotional 😭.
“Why are you crying?” I asked her.
"Because I care!” She said. I burst into tears😭. I told her I didn’t want to do it anymore, and I didn’t know how to stop but I knew it was going to die if I kept going. She knew I wouldn't go to the hospital, and they were worried if I left they would never see me again. She allowed me to lay down on the floor by the nursing station so they could monitor me.
The next day I was on the detox floor above the supervised consumption site, and my journey of fighting for recovery began again. I left the DTES with one set of clothes on my back and a welfare cheque with nothing but hope and a prayer.
Don't tell me these sites don't save lives, and don't tell me they don't help you access other health services like detox, treatment, and recovery bc I've witnessed it personally in my life and countless others.
The full circle ⭕ moment came 4 years later when Sara and I became colleagues and car-pooled to work together to help people who were in the same position I once was. She has met my kids and wife and we are always in contact. I feel so much gratitude for this human who never judged me and only cared about me.
Today I am also 10 years and 11 months sober and grateful because I wouldn't be alive today without harm reduction and I wouldn't have the life I have today without my recovery. #recoveryispossible #harmreductionsaveslives
Godspeed!
You know UCP is an abomination of conservatism and libertarianism when cabinet ministers decide what children call themselves in school and when parents can no longer consent to their children’s medical care.
Yet these same ministers proclaim bodily autonomy on vaccines.

6/We cannot be weak in the face of this, and we cannot turn our backs on the trans community. Together, it is our responsibility to ensure that decades of hard-fought battles for human rights are not wiped out. Because this is just the start.

This is amazing. Thanks to @PfParks for courageously speaking truth to power. (How sad that basic public health messaging now requires courage). Please listen to what he has to say. (And yes, you can be amused by the looks on the faces of the other two people as well).
