I read a lot, talk a lot, and procrastinate A LOT. I am too laidback, but when poked, I will detonate. I like that my beliefs are fluid, but not my values. And, although I value my Canadian identity, I do feel a sense of responsibility to the world itself.

His attendance at a pivotal historical moment in Canadian history with our First Nations Peoples seemingly unimportant, TH posted instead about an oil & gas venture - and a $50 million deposit lost? Oh well, he says. He is a disingenuous key player, at best. ##TimHouston #nspoli

Tim Houston brags about his supermajority to mask his non-mandate.

miterstomp.bsky.social@miterstomp.bsky.social

Tim Houston and his Conservative Government do not represent the will of Nova Scotians. They have a FALSE mandate, that was structurally inflated by low turnout and electoral rules. Only 1 out of 4 eligible Nova Scotians actively voted for the PCs in 2024, yet they hold nearly 80% of the seats.

I think about it all the time. How many people are targeted based on what these agents covet of their neighbours' possessions? #Nazis #ICE #Pirates #DHS #Plunder #Spoils

I will be so disappointed if people don't realize by the next election that #TimHouston is crashing #NovaScotia with his bad management and arrogance. Rather than admit failure, he blames his failure on others - made obvious by his taking over more and more offices.

Let me get this straight: The government overspends on untendered contracts for their friends, hands out a $500M tax cut favouring the wealthy, and now considers cutting services for the vulnerable during a cost-of-living crisis? This is peak incompetence. #nspoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

How clever, astute, and caring a lot more people than you realize can be! Here is a dodge around the government forcing Apple to remove the ICE locator - already built in because the creator anticipated some of the most powerful would prove to be the weakest. How do you like them apples?! #ICEapp

Tim Houston has all but called the province, Houston's Nova Scotia - like IDU chair, Stephen Harper, called the country Harper's Canada when he was PM. He's "taken the bit in his teeth" to take full control, ignoring the fact that he is there to represent the people's wants and needs - not his own.

I have reached this point also. I cruise Netflix, Prime, Crave (etc), but, in light of everything that is happening in the US, I feel repulsed by the subject matter/perspective/attitude depicted in many of their US culture shows, so I end up using Gem or BBC or Viki - or, more and more often, none.

I am noticing I feel negative about watching American TV, especially. Sitcoms. They just aren't relevant. I cannot help feeling some dislike for American cultural life. We are saturated. We are different. I'd like to cancel many shows.

In 2019, the last time Alberta was awash in separatist nonsense, CBC Calgary commissioned me to write this essay. I re-read it today - and it seems to me as true as ever. And I thought this weekend might be a good time to share it with you, my new Bluesky friends. #Alberta #cdnpoli #abpoli #ableg

Danielle Smith doesn't understand that Alberta separatism legally undermines the ongoing occupation of Canada. Smith's separatism inadvertently exposes the flaw of the Doctrine of Discovery. It's a bit of reading, but for those interested, here is the legal background in one convenient place:
