This #NotMyPremier hashtag is BS. She is our premier. She followed the rules, and in our system of govt this is how it plays out.
If you don't like the rules, ok, push for change. But don't play the NotMy game. We're a democracy. Sometimes the other guy wins.

If you don't like Danielle Smith, instead of crossing your arms, holding your breath and turning blue, DO SOMETHING. Advocate. Write letters. Ask to meet with your MLA. Talk to others.

Another weekend digging into Ghost Recon Wildlands, and I am reminded as to why I adore this game! I tried the GR Breakpoint 2nd campaign because I was finding Wildlands a bit boring the second time through, but ultimately came back because Breakpoint it just so broken...
... but once I really got into what initially thrilled me about GRW, I had a blast!
What I love about Ubisoft open world games is that you can jump in, not feel like playing through the story, but not feel that whatever you did was a waste. Everything matters.

Tamara Lich (who organized the convoy protest's fund raising) was in court for a bail hearing. Her husband also testified, and said that he and his wife's activities were protected by the First Amendment.
To be clear, I don't think either of these people actually thinks they're protected by the US Constitution. It's that they are uneducated in their own country's laws. The don't know that the protections they're referring to are found in Section 2 of the Charter.

I finally got time to actually play a game on the new rig, which I ordered on 22 November and finally received on Monday evening.
As I promised myself, I started with @SatelliteReign, a wonderful successor to Syndicate. I've played it through a couple of times...
...but always on low detail. Now I can run it at full detail. Wow! The cyberpunk city is so vibrant and detailed, I enjoy just walking around.

Stop blaming the trucker convoy for things!
It was just one or two guys with Nazi Party swastika flags.
It's just a few guys with swastikas on their Cdn flags.
It was just a small group that forced a homeless shelter to give them food.
It was just a few people who desecrated the War Memorial and the National Aboriginal Veterans Monument.

Reminder: conservatives are hoping to reverse a century of progress. We came out of the Great Depression with the beginning of a social safety net and a middle class. Cons want us to come out of this crisis without any of that. They see this as an opportunity....

... and they don't care what damage it causes. In Ab, Kenney pushed through a budget based on fantasy, because he NEEDS those government jobs gone. He needs those people brought low and desperate. He needs education and healthcare privatized. It's what he's being paid to do.

"NDP Drug Sites" huh? Okay, let's dig into that.
Let me be upfront about this and say that Kenney is not likely to apologize. The wording was very specifically chosen, designed to appeal to two types of conservative voters.
