We're all on the spectrum of unhealthy.

Canada's one and only current premier who is female and would therefore never have been elected a few decades ago outlaws equity, pulls up drawbridge behind herself.

The #UCP is screwing up vaccine roll out again this fall. For the second time, I’ve had a pharmacy appointment cancelled because of vaccine shortages. The incompetence of this government is unmatched, and hurts all of us.

With this fab news of 3 CFMA Nominations for my 8th album, Hardscrabble Hope, I'd like to thank the folk music community, audiences and fans for their support over the past 28 years of my music-making! If you are not already on my mailing list, please sign up on my website to stay in the loop!

“The Alberta Premier’s office did not acknowledge requests for comment.” Danielle Smith was happy to use $4M of Albertans’ money to fill TV, radio & social media with ads telling you how to vote in her $200M referendum. Now suddenly she has nothing to say. 1/2 #abpoli

F these UCP bigots! Alberta friends, I want to see everything rainbow. Flags, chalk, ribbons, street art, painted rocks… In my hood, we have been adding pride flag stickers on signposts - we have 6 schools in walking distance. They come in rolls of 500…but there are LOT of poles so get going!

HOT OFF THE PRESS! Calgary city council will decide whether to approve 7 new communities in the coming weeks (incl 3 on Tuesday). Meanwhile city hall is bracing for less revenue from suburban developers after new UCP restrictions. I dig into all this and more...

One (another) thing that drives me nuts about AB Petroleum Club type cons is that they screamed & yelled about the federal Lib-NDP agreement (they called it a coalition) as undemocratic. Not a peep as their ACTUAL provincial coalition spends all its time & $$ on the COALITION and not on governing.

Garrett Koehler doesn't speak for journalists. The UCP established the one question, one follow-up rule to stop journalists from pursuing a natural line of questioning. Generally, reporters are happy to let a colleague ask a series of questions that pin down a fact. This is how it's done everywhere.

Carolyn would have turned 60 today. Miss you.

Nation shocked as Alberta makes good decision

Or teachers and educational assistants, or mental health care workers.

Not cut 200 bucks/month from the disabled.

Alberta could've hired hundreds of nurses.

November 15, 2026 eve Ukrainian Centre 11018 97 St NW Edmonton AB We perform the Packingtown Video Ballad to commemorate Gainers #meatpacking #strike 40 yrs ago. Here’s 1 of the songs I wrote, inspired by Renee Peevey’s #oralhistory interview with @ablabourhistory.bsky.social youtu.be/WgkcRLfAlHk

Jusf Today @cbcradiocanada.bsky.social was interviewing Corey Morgan as if it was the most normal thing. The guy was charged for trespass by a first nation for going onto the reserve to make videos with a decidedly racist lens. And he thinks that we should do away with treaties and treaty rights.

Last week, I finally had enough with the CBC refusing to fact check Smith’s lie that this referendum is the result of the Citizen Initiative Act. The response was to claim oh but it’s the “spirit of the law!”and my follow up.

Because Tonight, Tonight, Toni-iight, South Bloooccck! We're amped and cramped on the South Block stage tonight, 830pm start! If you follow me and come by, say hi!

Anyone got any leads on the most sincere pumpkin patches around Calgary?

The alternative here is that Carney just outright lied to the Canadian public. If you think the Prime Minister being disengenuousness and dishonest is ok when it's strategic 4D chess, that says a lot about you.

How many times does Carney have to tell you, directly and explicitly, what he is doing before you stop making up some other rationalization?

Listening to Premier Smith on CBC eyeopener and hearing her lie again. She claims that the Canada question was legally forced upon her by citizen initiative petitions. That is simply nonsense. The question is hers Q, not Lucaszuk's and not the APP's. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

This policy change will case significant harm since healthcare is now tied to a valid ID. Not the promised “tecovery oriented system of care”.

#ABreferendum line to vote was speedy, 8 people ahead of me but total time spent there was 20 minutes!
