For every real position Pierre takes from here to the election like he did today on puberty blockers, he will secure 1 yes vote and lose two maybes. The math will become difficult as a consequence of courting many fringe blocs without ever building a true consensus beyond anger.

Canada, are you listening? As 51st state, we wouldn’t pay income tax. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Still my preferred outcome.
MΓ©lanie Joly: "Forced divestiture is definitely on the table and we already know that there are some potential buyers that are interested in buying the Canadian assets of Stelco."

Well, I’m still standing by this.
Most likely outcome in my opinion? Trump stays on for 2 years & runs a crash program heavily based on executive orders. He steps down & pulls Nixon, Vance pardons him. The presidency will look a lot like Bush and Cheney from a division of power and β€œstrings” perspective.

Replying to @RealKrysKo
I rallied reporters in Edmonton to reject Mark Carney's limit on questions at the press conf announcing his candidacy. Result --> xitter.cf/CarrieTait/status/2113…
They said 2 in French, 2 in English. Press pushed back. Ended up with 14 or 17 or something like that. Because we said he can answer 4, but we will *ask* as many as we want and if he wants to walk away after 4, while the cameras are rolling, that is his choice.

A purported BioWare developer has leaked a trailer for the cancelled ME 5 on Reddit. The footage, reportedly titled "MASS EFFECT UNIVERSE," appears to suggest the project was further along in development. Its authenticity remains unverified. #MassEffect

*~13%
We may only be 25% of Albertans, but we are 50% of the UCP voting base. They need to do the real political math here, not try to run us over by pretending we no longer exist.

And that’s okay.
I asked @nenshi how he can champion pipelines when federal NDP Leader @avilewis is against new ones. Nenshi: "I don't want to be unkind, but the federal NDP is really not relevant in Alberta. Nobody talks about them, nobody worries about them." 🎧 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
