To save her political skin she gambled with one of the greatest nations that's ever existed.

WHEN YOU REALIZE THE BABY BOOM WASN'T JUST SOLDIERS COMING HOME HORNY.
It was soldiers coming home to the GI Bill, free college, 0% down home loans, and low interest business loans.
It was strong unions. Pensions. A house that cost 2 years of salary.
It was confidence that the future was actually going to be better than the present.
That's what produced a baby boom. Not romance. Security.
You want a higher birth rate now?
Give people a future where they know their kids will actually be okay.
That's the whole formula. It's not complicated. It's just expensive, and nobody in charge wants to pay for it twice.

Even though the separatist referendum has been soundly defeated, we have gained valuable information about where separatists are in this province.
With the 2027 election approaching soon, it's time to start gerrymandering!

Avi Lewis: "I'm truly heartened that Albertans voted in a landslide to remain in Canada. The frustrations that preceded this referendum don't disappear now that the vote is over. But as so many Albertans have shown us, we don't fix our problems by turning on each other. We fix them by coming together."

The Canadian separatists have suffered another humiliating defeat. Itโs awesome to see Canadians rebuke right wing fantasies over and over again. We need to do the same in America.

My polling in Alberta and my visit to the province last month reaffirmed this conclusion.
Albertans have been asked a question it did not want by a government it does not trust to answer it, about a country it is not prepared to give up, in the shadow of a neighbour it does not trust at all.

As Alberta debates separation, consider this: Alberta already enjoys more constitutional authority and control over developing its oil, gas and natural resources than almost any subnational government worldwide. It owns the resources, controls development and keeps Crown royalties. In most countries, these powers rest with national governments.

๐ฅ The main concern with Albertaโs Separatist movement is not that they can possibly succeed.
They will never succeed.
We know it, and they know it. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
The insidious nature of their movement is that unless it is stopped dead in its tracks by this referendum vote, it ensures years of DEBATE and uncertainty about Albertaโs future, at a time when Canada needs to be strong and united in pursuing our national aspirations of massive economic growth and secured sovereignty.
That uncertainty is the intent and design of those being sponsored to keep our country divided.
Albertans of good will must vote in their MASSES. You canโt afford to sit this one out. ๐๐ผ๐

Ex Canadian Deputy PM Freeland: Europeans, Britain included, must ask if they are ready for Russia to be Europeโs dominant military power and to dictate Europeโs security terms.
The answer is an unequivocal no. Then Europe has to support Ukraine until Ukraine wins. 1/

We now know the identity of the service members who lost their lives.
Pte Aidan Goulding (North Vancouver, BC)
Pte Shaun Farrell (Prince Albert, SK)
Pte Hayden Lykkemark (Langley, BC)
Sgt Morgan Wong, (Edmonton, AB)
39 other Canadian Armed Forces members are injured, many seriously. Grief is being felt by families and friends across Canada - and beyond.
As Prime Minister Carney said: "Those we lost and who were injured were training to defend Canada. To serve Canada.
Now Canada serves them.
We will be there for their families for as long as they need. We will care for the injured through every step of their recovery. And we will stand by the women and men of our Armed Forces as they bear the weight of this loss."

If one billionaire can slow down the internet for an entire country, shut down Starlink during crises, turn off your car and your wifi, and censoring voices online, that billionaire has way too much power, with no capability of accountability. The definition of power, unchecked.

Prayers for all of those affected.
A reminder to us all that even in times of peace, brave Canadians in uniform take real risks to train & prepare to defend us.

Chrystia Freeland: "Your government is siding with Vladimir Putin, who is a bloodthirsty dictator and war criminal. This is not a time for us to be divided. And it's certainly not a time for America to be on the side of the bad guys, which I'm sorry to say, you are right now."
