As the season changes and the time change brings darkness earlier, time to "light" up the candles for a little ambiance. (This post done so I could confirm I could drag/drop my image AND to practice using ALT text.) Learn to use ALT text when you post an image -- it is the inclusive thing to do.

I wrote a piece in question 9 of the upcoming Alberta referendum. Is Premier Smith trying to Hamstring the Pacific Link Pipeline? leach.substack.com/p/is-daniell...

AHEM

Ahem

It doesn't make any sense. The man of the Art of the Deal now announces deals that are fiction.

Dear Alberta, VOTE! 🗳️ NO to the 9. 👎 YES to Canada. 🇨🇦

With the greatest of respect, these people are morons.

This is remarkable!!

This graf is doing some rich storytelling.

I see #BRICS is meeting in India. Trump must be so sad to not be there with his besties.

Excellent piece by @gkfellows.bsky.social No retaliation thinking is short-term, for 1-shot games, or conceding we have no power to alter repeated ones. Hear, hear to Kent's wise views! "We need to be strategic, we need to think long term, we need to retaliate. Adam Smith would expect no less."

This is what we call ethical oil. @mark-carney.bsky.social We can’t give any more federal $$ until this industry takes responsibility for its messes.

It’s pretty sad to watch the decline of the American empire occur in realtime, at such breakneck speed. Perhaps even sadder to witness how easy it fell.

There seems to be a bit of misinformation circulating on social media about my latest @albertaviews.bsky.social column and what it actually says. So perhaps you’d like to read it for yourself and draw your own conclusions. (Feel free to share, it you are so moved.) #ableg #abpoli #Canada #cdnpoli

this is a wonderful piece of work. in a world of wild demands, exaggerated concerns, and gotchas, Dr. Welsey puts forward some commensense, practical, and workable approaches to make Canada work better. now, will PM Carney, Premier Smith and others support it?

Foreign interference, MAGA-style. #abpoli #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/09/04/i...

#EnergyTransition can't stop won't stop

today's essential read for all Albertans. albertaviews.ca/the-noxious-...

Thinking it will take sometime yet .... and they will choose someone like Jamil or .... to replace him. It is going to be hard to give up the politics of rage.

I want to thank and recognize Pierre Polievre's work to build unity in Canada. Keep doing what you are doing!! I don't love some of Carney's actions/policies but they are sure better than the alternatives.

The more footage of the Nepal-Tibet glacier disaster I watch, the more obvious it appears that communities cannot fully adjust to this type of events, the harder I think that people are underpricing climate adaptation

Heh @mark-carney.bsky.social You need to call the Premiers to actually on reducing barriers to goods, services and workers. They need to step up.

BREAKING: Doug Ford challenges Donald Trump to a corruption fight in the school parking lot

Seems we should be moving as fast as possible to reduce oil/gas consumption in Eastern Canada WHILE establishing delivery not through the US. Open up the EV import market; foster heat pump (non-US) purchases; oil trains; temporary LNG terminals for import.

Of course. And negotiations with Iran too. So much wasted space between his ears. So much.

Report: Trump admin demanded Canada execute Bonhomme

“Maîtres chez nous,” When a bloke quotes the slogan that ended with a government seizing the electricity grid, and your entire northern border runs on his electricity grid, that stops being a speech, sunshine, and starts being a safety briefing. #ByeAmerican ifloz.substack.com/p/carney-jus...

Perhaps now our provincial Premiers will take serious steps to bring down inter-provincial barriers of all kinds. Destroy them all.

Trump loves Doug Ford -- he loves trading jabs with someone. Brawling is his only strategy. He can't deal with the smooth, quiet intelligence of Carney. Ford should back off -- much better to have Carney lead.

💯

Canadian here. I see these posts on where I'd live. Here's mine: whereidlive.com/s/0xnd5sa6 To change the colours, change the government.

Why would Canada want "the benefits of being a U.S. state," when we already have so much more? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... #FartoftheDeal

Need to start a write in campaign for Jamil Jivani as the next leader of the CPC.

During the US/Canada trade negotiations the US wanted to remove the French language labels from Canadian products. They also wanted to dictate which other countries we could trade with. Whoa, you don't eff around with our dual language law or tell us who to be friends with.. No thanks! Tabernac!

Maybe BYD wants to buy this???

And our cities want to be just like Gary, Indiana -- without power for a week following a storm. #never51 #forevercanadian

I think we may owe Lutnick a debt of gratitude for the timely reminder to our negotiators of who these guys are, and for saving us from what ultimately would've been a bad deal.

As premiers rally behind Carney in trade dispute, Alberta’s Smith questions retaliation plan www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber... Find out more at nationalnewswatch.com

What if @mark-carney.bsky.social ups the chaos? Let liquor back on the shelves. Permit more dairy. Trump and Lutnik will be confused. We won’t but it anyway. Trump likes to confuse other party’s. Give it back to him.

Trump and his underlings are now out spreading their view of the failed deal - just like they did before it failed. Believe nothing they say. Just like all the “Iran defeated” pronouncements. They aren’t honest in public or in private.

Heh Meta. With the US tariff decision you might wish to reconsider the big data centre in Canada. Going to be a lot more expensive to import all that US material to build it.

Heh @mark-carney.bsky.social A good signal in Sept. would be to increase the quarterly quota and reduce the tariff on EV's from any country. Seriously engage with a foreign builder (Kia, BYD, Volvo, Hyundai ....) to purchase an idle auto plant.

Schitts Creek has given us so many gifs which are appropriate today. This one goes out to the Canadian trade negotiators 😂
