What a giant diaper bag he is. Middle and elementary school teachers roll their eyes at boys who do this.

"This is the most significant book ban that's ever taken place in Canada"β€”James Turk on Alberta schools pulling 160+ books to comply with a provincial order.

He argues the move is driven by β€œsome far-right parental rights groups."

Do you agree?

By the book: Alberta schools pull at least 160 titles from shelves to meet provincial order | CBC News Alberta school divisions complying with a provincial order have removed dozens of graphic novels from their shelves, from illustrated versions of literary classics to coming-of-age memoirs and dramati...

What books did Alberta schools *actually* pull off the shelves in response to a provincial order? It took a lot of work to find out. We still don't have a complete picture. And some schools are still pulling material.

Free speech advocates say it's ban unmatched in Canadian history. #AbLeg By me.

Iran made and released this video.

Stalking or harassment laws are weak for women too. I put together a case against a neighbour with 340 videos showing indecent exposure, threats, property damage and besetting . My civil lawyer said the case was solid for criminal. The Crown went .. meh. Boys will be boys. My civil case proceeds

Danielle Smith and Mickey Amery have spent a lot of time attacking Judges and claiming the appointment of federal judges "is not non-partisan".

But it turns out, not only are their complaints not based in reality, but "their" track record is actually worse.

This close ally of Danielle Smithβ€”the man who connected her to Artur Pawlowskiβ€”drained his own relatives' life savings for wine and crypto, then refused to pay it back. Accountability isn't in his vocabulary. I suspect he is draining bank account through APP donations. #ABleg #ABpoli

Global News’ Ben Mulroney Shared a Video of Airstrikes. The Footage is Actually from a VideoΒ Game. The host of Global News’ West Block gets lost in a misinformation-driven fog of war as American and Israeli forces strike Iran

NEW FROM ME:

While US and Israeli forces launched strikes against Iran this weekend, Global News' The West Block host Ben Mulroney reposted video of fighter jets that had been miscaptioned as American F-15s attacking Iran

I double-checked. Ben was actually sharing footage from a video game

If you spend time in the bad place, you’re hearing this claim a lot:

Alberta sends $23B more to Ottawa than it gets back. If we separated, we’d erase the $9B deficit and have a $14B surplus.

It sounds simple. It’s wrong. Here's why. 🧡
