Congratulations @CalgaryTransit I just saw two brand new electric buses roll by me on 16th Ave., NW. How long till we can see them in service? Meanwhile, Shenzhen China has more than 16,000, 100% of its fleet. 💯🚎⚡️⚡️🔌 #EV #electricbuses

oilsandsmagazine.com/news/20… Alberta got $30 per barrel less than the world price by selling to the US in October. Why is Alberta government supporting a project to sell even more to US?
Refinery disruptions and rising production push WCS discount to multi-year high | Oil Sands Magazine

While WTI prices remained elevated in October, refinery outages and ongoing labour disputes are denting demand for Canadian heavy crude in the US Midwest. Here's a look at production trends, October...

Oh my... 15 UCP Constituency Association presidents signed a letter refusing to agree to the UCP code of conduct. The code of conduct ordered them to agree to the outcome of the AB independence referendum.

🟥 WOW… Prime Minster Mark Carney’s video today “Forward Guidance”, to rally Canadians, is one of the best addresses by any world leader, ever, to their citizens. 🍁 It is an eloquent and inspiring ‘call to arms’ for our national participation in economic renewal, prosperity building, and sovereignty protection. It is undeniable. We have the right leader, at the right time. 👌🏻 🔳 “Our forebearers understood that building this improbable country in an inhospitable land wouldn't always be easy. But they also knew they could rely on one of Canadian's strongest traits: Resilience. Canada Strong isn't about just withstanding this crisis, it's about coming out of it stronger, more resilient, more independent than when we started. It's about ensuring that no country can hold us hostage. And that we can live how we want to live.”

The U.S. over-produces dairy and (unlike Canada) lacks production caps; their milk contains growth hormones, and antibiotic residues. 🐄 🇺🇸

Americans can keep the booze and the dairy. Canadians prefer products that meet our standards. 🇨🇦

You own a car, not the road. If you kill somebody due to excessive speed and lack of paying attention, you may be charged with manslaughter. At the very least, it's a moral crime. Slow down and pay attention you selfish asshole! White VW, female driver, AB plate CCH8899 .

Alberta is projecting a $9.4B deficit after an estimated $4.1B deficit last year, yet Danielle Smith thinks it's a good use of taxpayer money to spend $100M on overseas private companies to force severely disabled Albertans into work. She's a fucking ghoul #ABpoli #ABleg

I want to see a version of this done on ghost Lake or spray lakes this coming winter. Or, any Canadian lake! 🇨🇦

You're unlikely to see, think about, care about, or understand disability until you or a close family member or friend is affected by it. 🇨🇦♿️

@ CalgaryTransit bus 8285 on route 5️⃣ today has a ramp that no longer will retract or deployed. We heard a snap and it stopped. When will you ever start doing preventative maintenance on these ramps? You're doing a disservice to all wheelchair users.

Call mom you're doing a disservice to the half full bus of passengers who are now stuck inside a bus that will no longer move. All of them are inconvenienced and delayed because of your failure to do maintenance.

This week on Whatever This Is, we’re calling out the ultimate wealth transfer happening right under our noses: Danielle Smith’s two-tier education system. A tactic ripped straight from the U.S. playbook: Defund public. Subsidize elites. Segregate by class. #ableg #canpoli #abpoli
