@jemelehill Gross. Not to mention the only teams staying in Idaho were those scheduled to play Gonzaga WBB. UC Irvine/Utah in Coeur d’Alene & SD State in Post Falls. Huge home court advantage & put those 3 teams farthest away in a white nationalist hotbed? Unsportsmanlike & dangerous.
@Keeveinot FWIW - it seems like it wasn’t an easy decision for the committee. Look at the URL from the press release. It’s unfortunate that either team is watching from home next weekend.
@Keeveinot Seems like there’s a bigger conversation about growing the tournament or having play in games like OUA & CW championships. Bring it from 8 to 12 (or 16) teams. 🤷🏻♀️
Here at Edmonton’s Sacred Heart of the First Peoples Church where @Pontifex will visit Monday. Streets are blocked off & stationed with police. This area is usually filled with homeless people, most of them Indigenous, but it’s been cleared out…
Education & healthcare are at a breaking point. Prices for food/utilities/gas etc. are untenable. We need safe injection sites & mental health supports & more. Ppl are struggling. I’ll vote NDP, but the comms strategy needs work. Dunking on Kenney isn’t enough to win an election.
No more white-linen dinners on the Sky Palace patio for the Premier and his friends.
Alberta's NDP will make the infamous top floor of the Federal Building open for rent for free by non-profits, community and cultural groups. #ableg#yyc#yeg

Interesting to read this thread right after the UCP has increased funding for charter schools in Alberta. Feels like a glimpse into a future I don’t want.
