Thx @thewalrus for a great article exposing the ‘big lie’ of Alberta victimisation weaponised by Smith’s opportunism. Our report with @ABFedLabour documents how it’s not Ottawa, but the greed of business @ its UCP backers, that explains Albertans hardship: centreforfuturework.ca/2026/…
Over the ten years, Premier Smith claims Alberta faced a hostile federal government, oil and gas production doubled, and Ottawa poured tens of billions into energy infrastructure. The tolerance of her big lie is almost as remarkable as the lie itself. thewalrus.ca/alberta-separat…

Today we're releasing the Pangram Chrome Extension, which automatically flags AI-generated content as you scroll your feed. We're sick of having to constantly be on guard for AI slop on social media. For most of human history, if a piece of writing was grammatical, coherent, and well-structured, you were safe in assuming that somebody put some thought into producing it. That assumption no longer holds true: AI has severed the relationship between form and content, destroying the credibility signal we once relied on. The Pangram Chrome extension restores that signal. It scans your feed as you scroll, flagging AI-generated and AI-assisted content in real time and showing you how much of your feed is machine-written. Works on X, LinkedIn, Reddit, Substack, and Medium. New users get 2 weeks free. Install it here: pangram.com/solutions/chrome…

Mayor elect Chow has been elected for 27 hours. Perhaps it’s a touch early to hold her responsible for the housing crisis?
Replying to @alexbozikovic
Let’s talk in 10 years when half a generation have had a chance to consider something that 3 generations have been told they can’t do. Of course condos are doing the heavy lift. Chow isn’t saying otherwise. She’s saying any homeowner can develop, and that’s true and happening

Canada Bread's $50 million fine for its part in Canada's bread price-fixing scandal will be paid to the federal government. Many Canadians want to know why it’s not going directly to them — the folks who bought overpriced bread. cbc.ca/news/business/bread-p…
