Straight from the horse's mouth. If you signed a recall, rest assured, your signature will NOT be publicly available.
We DO live in a democracy, and thousands of Albertans are working hard to keep it that way. KEEP PARTICIPATING!

As you use AI to simplify easy yet mundane tasks, like writing emails, you get increasingly dependent on it.

You get lazy, less skilled, use your brain less, and (you may not want to hear this) get stupider as a result.

Don’t let them take away your ability to think. Stop using it. Now.

It’s very strange that many headlines today are a about war making petroleum more expensive rather than war killing people, harming people, destroying the environment.

Inside the classroom: A deep dive into Alberta schools through the view of teachers | CBC News In January, CBC News took the rare step of emailing teachers directly because of the unprecedented labour situation in Alberta and the teachers' claims about what kids are facing in the province's cla...

Just before I left my job at CBC, I scraped more than 23,000 teacher email addresses from hundreds of Alberta school websites.

The CBC's Elise Stolte then sent a questionnaire to each one.

She got more than 6,000 responses!

Those form the basis of a new series.

The stories can be found here:

"We’re now rapidly losing the tools for our propaganda work abroad,especially in the near abroad.

This is a meme circulating among the Alberta separatists. This is not about equalization or pipelines. It is a desire to create some sort of (dis)utopia based on conspiracy theories.

Nenshi - You’re not going to allow a referendum question that violates the constitution, so no separatist question, aren’t you leading people on?
