A bit of good news about Maya. Can’t imagine what this family and so many others are going through.

Grrr. Systemic issues then.

I learned that the girls school that was hit had previously been used by the Iranian government, so it begs the question of whether or not AI was involved in picking the target and if so, was it using out-of-date information. The episode also raises the issue of AI use and a lack of accountability.

That’s brutal to go through. It makes me wonder if female GPs are more likely to diagnose earlier and therefore have better outcomes for their patients.

Same. I wonder if it will come roaring back with the full throated support of the Alberta government.

Supreme Court of Canada | Quebec (Attorney General) v. Kanyinda

Starting Friday with a bit of a Supreme Court win against the QuΓ©bec govt's attempts to exclude refugee claimants from accessing subsidized childcare!

This is big, given Minister Drainville's statements in the last 48hrs about, well, wanting to do this *more*.

And you can bet UCP finance Minister Nate Horner is updating his spreadsheet that calculates how many days of war erase his massive budget deficit.

I’ve been thinking of political polarization lately and came across this photo. The two solitudes in Alberta (from the last provincial election campaign in 2023).

Former Australian PM Malcolm Turnbull on PM Carney's address to parliament: "Mark Carney is the first national leader of a major country to make this argument [about middle powers needing to work together] so clearly. And it cut through at Davos. It's been inspiring."

She definitely has her own world view, and spends all her time trying to jam reality into her parameters. It must be exhausting.

You actively made it easier for the separatists to have a successful petition, but ok Dani.

Folks! I’m looking to interview someone looking to buy a home this year in Calgary, regardless of the property type.

If this is you, or someone you know, message me privately so i can tell you more about the story i’m writing.

Hard not to look at the top and bottom of this chart as a Canadian and feel pity and fear for our nearest neighbour and a sense of quiet pride for ourselves. The societal and political ramifications of these attitudes are deeply interesting.

This is a profound continental divide. Canadians overwhelmingly view other Canadians, even those unlike them, as being good people. Americans, more than any other country, view their neighbours and fellow citizens as bad people. Anti-Americanism flourishes in the United States

It’s notable that 53% of Albertans think Danielle Smith is a separatist, while 77% think Naheed Nenshi is not. That’s a pretty wide gap and sets up an interesting election campaign if this is the ballot box question.

Just 1 in 4 Albertans back independence (26%), while nearly two thirds oppose it (64%). Yet a majority (53%) think Premier Smith would vote to separate. The politics of perception may matter more than the numbers. #ableg

60 Million dollars. That’s how much it is going to cost to advance an anti-immigration and racist agenda through referendum questions in Alberta this year.

That money would pay for 250 jobs paying $80,000 each in education or healthcare.

Think about it. What would you rather have?

He's saying we're not going to participate in offensive actions against Iran, but might need to defend our allies.

Chill, people.
