My 87 year old mother called me to tell me she had an off phone call today from
Save-On-Foods pharmacy. They told her they were offering a $300 vaxx to her age group for FREE. WOOHOO free stuff. I am glad she called me because firstly, she had no idea what they would be vaccinating her for (she is currently sick with some sort of respiratory illness) and secondly wasn’t sure if she already had a shot. I called Save On to see what they were offering (haven’t heard back yet) so I checked online and it’s the RSV shot, something she doesn’t need because she has probably had it and has antibodies and secondly she’s sick so NO. She says “but it’s a good deal, FREE. After all we have been through, after all the illness and deaths she was still thinking about it, unbelievable. I told her if she’s currently sick with RSV and gets a shot it could kill, her a lie I know but what the hell. you never know. She’s not getting the free shot but I’m thinking it’s going to expire soon and they have to get it into arms to have it covered by Heath Canada.

Watching the drama unfold around the referendum discussion is, to me, just so incredibly silly.
I cannot believe we are at a point where we are seriously entertaining theatrics about whether citizens should even be allowed to pose a question, instead of having mature discussions about what the question actually means, the potential consequences, the legal realities, the risks, the benefits, and the broader future of the province and country.
That is what democracy is supposed to be.
Not fear of discussion.
Not attempts to shut conversations down before they even happen.
Not treating citizens like they are incapable of hearing ideas, thinking critically, and making decisions for themselves.
A referendum question is not automatic implementation. It is a mechanism to gauge public support and force public discussion on an issue of significant importance. Democracies should not be afraid of asking questions. If anything, they should be afraid of preventing them.

Jeff Rath’s behaviour toward Danielle Smith is not a good look for this movement, and he does not speak for me.
When this started, I had respect for him. But as this has played out, it has become harder to ignore what appears to be a push for power inside the movement, not a sincere focus on Alberta independence.
Danielle Smith is a major reason Albertans were even able to collect signatures in the first place. Compared to any other premier in this country, I believe she has been the strongest one standing up for her province.
I will not forget her accomplishments.
She stood up for parental rights when others wanted schools keeping parents in the dark.
She took action against political ideology being pushed in classrooms.
She made sure kids got back to school when the system tried to hold families hostage.
She has strengthened Alberta Sheriffs and continued exploring ways to free Alberta from relying on the RCMP.
And that is only part of it.
This movement should be ...
