183 comments on this post. Most of which are negative. Which is exactly why we do this; to spark conversation & hopefully educate those who don’t understand what Pride is about.
Hockey is for everyone & we will continue to use our platform to share this message.

If people put as much energy into preventing mass shootings as they do trying to stop Drag Queen story hour we probably could have saved a lot of lives by now.

On Wednesday, a wake was held for Damien Sanderson. His wife, Skye said that she anticipated an empty hall.
Ms. Sanderson broke down when she opened the door to a room packed with community members & a table spread wide with food prepared by matriarchs. theglobeandmail.com/canada/a…

Just to recap. Dustin Duncan has not met with or talked directly to the student group who have come forward, when several letters of correspondence have been sent to his office. No show at the teachers conference, but did meet Legacy’s principal & staff. #legacyofabuse

Note. It’s pretty hard to intimidate a woman who defied the Russian secret police, who stood up to Putin and Trump, and who can run circles around most bullies, in high heels, no less. She greets him in an open friendly way, then strides coolly into that elevator when he goes off

This week on twitter a female deputy PM is shown being physically intimidated, a female journalist is reportedly fired for going grey and a female prime minister is ridiculed for dancing at a private event. Somedays this is exhausting.

If you can walk up to the Deputy PM and call her those names yet still claim there is no freedom in Canada, I would suggest trying that with Putin. This behaviour does not make me think ‘I wonder what I can learn about vaccine science from this man.’

So 45 minutes ago, Pierre Poilievre tweeted against Trudeau & carbon pricing. And has tweeted...absolutely nothing calling out the attack on Chrystia Freeland, a colleague in the House of Commons. It's beyond appalling.
Conservative friends - I suggest you get on this fast.

I certainly hope that Premier @jkenney and all the UCP leadership candidates join regular Albertans in condemning the dreadful treatment of the Deputy Prime Minister (who is from Peace River, don't forget) in Alberta today.
