Dear @CityofRedDeer @YourAlberta I’ve been in Quebec City, Montreal, Ottawa, and Nelson this summer. None of these places have a homeless epidemic / undesirable downtown like Red Deer (or Edmonton and Calgary). Perhaps do what they are doing? I’d start with Quebec.

Hey @Marriott @MBonvoyAssist I’m in Quebec City at the Delta and boy am I disappointed. This hotel is part of the brand?!? I doesn’t deserve the name. The salt in the wound? The absurd cost. #shouldhavestayedattheHolidayInn

Hey ⁦@SportChek⁩ , tried returning some ⁦@Nike⁩ we bought from you because they have fallen apart after 8 months… was told to contact ⁦@nikesupport⁩ - but they say to take them to you (see image). Who’s going to deal with this?!?

I want to address this comment on yesterday’s thread because it is a very common retort to my arguments against idea supremacy. The retort references Popper’s Paradox and I believe misunderstands Popper’s point by flipping it on its head. Here’s how I explain it in my book:

The absolute absurdity that some adults believe witches and magic are real aside, the podcast had themes that matched the weekend. Most importantly, Voltaire was right, “I may not agree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.” #abed #ableg

With $$ millions going to charter schools this provincial budget, this column is a ‘must read’ for every Albertan. It’s about children today, our collective future, and accountability for public $$. #PublicEducationMatters #EPSB #abed #ableg edmontonjournal.com/opinion/…

Classic! @WestJet berating customers for not “volunteering” to check their purposeful carry-on! Ha. She has now threatened to charge customers for forced checking AND it won’t be WJs fault if they are delayed. Haha. Airlines… the solution is simple. For only $42 I’ll tell you.

Just finished “Water - Dances with Wolves - World” director’s 30th anniversary extended cut , AKA Avatar 2. Couple thoughts: 1. What took him so long? It certainly wasn’t time spent on story or dialogue. 2. @justinbieber cast as Spider was interesting. Bro.

When the UCP dropped reporting on class size, we took it on. When they looked the other way with on classroom complexity we defined it & researched the growing challenges. School boards will be fearful of this data as it illustrates how the most vulnerable are being left behind.
