First-past-the-post is a democratic abomination. It's an insane way to hold elections and the politicians who continually refuse to get rid of it are selfish assholes. Every single one of them.

edmontonjournal.com/... Excellent Op-Ed - All Albertans and Canadians should read it 👇 "When my time matters most, will my place in line be determined by how urgently I need care — or by how much I can afford to pay for it? That is a question worth our time."

Rabies is 100% fatal if untreated. Please help spread the word about the exposure at the Farm Adventures mobile petting zoo in North Carolina. The vaccine is incredibly effective and will save your life. Also…. Rabies at a petting zoo!?!? www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

In this weekend’s @winnipegfreepress.com column, I openly wonder if Carney understands the implications of what he actually did. www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/2026/0...

The exclusion of Indigenous communities from decision-making during emergencies is showing up in real time. This season, wildfires have hit 81 First Nations and displaced 9,131 people.

I like this notetaking example. it is a good case of how gender works. Notetaking has never been about producing a transcript. It is a bureaucratic skill in the 20th c. organixarion because it is SENSEMAKING. Those women socialized to take notes? They have been doing men’s metacognition for them

Went to parent-teacher night at my kid's middle school this evening and got told that the district is now moving away from technology in the classroom and going back to pen and paper. I love that this excellent news of rebellion came on the same day as Zuckerberg's AI supremacist screed.

"Researchers at the University of Chicago studied the impact of removing police and shifting to restorative practices at CPS high schools and found declines in school-based arrests and high-level discipline violations. Students said they felt a stronger sense of safety and belonging."

"Come to Canada, we're a stable, serious, non-politicized place to do science." (And then we name the program after an overt partisan) A future government looking to cut research funding now gets to frame it as scrubbing Liberal branding. Why hand them that? OK, soapbox put away now.
Impact+ hardly rolled off the tongue, and there's some logic to name our new research chairs after Eddie Goldenberg. But, to be honest, I am not sure about naming core programs after a Liberal Party insider/lobbyist. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

Deb Wright, author of Future Sea, started the 100x50 movement. Given the literal language of UNCLOS, she proposes we flip the script: instead of exploiting 70% of the ocean, we protect 100% and create designated commercial areas instead of marine protected areas 💖 what do you think?

Alberta contributing more annually to federal revenues than what it gets in return could be seen as a sign of strength, rather than a weakness, says Moshe Lander, a senior lecturer of economics with Concordia University. www.hilltimes.com/2026/07/06/t...
