That's amazing Jim. Great work.

Had a chance to watch "Speechless" on CBC this weekend. I have questions, but it was an interesting enough analysis about how the left and right clash over the questions of free expression on American campuses. It is worth a discussion, for sure.
This is a shocking story. Congrats to @thenarwhal.ca on exposing this.
LNG Canada in Kitimat – 🇨🇦's first major LNG facility – is now one of the highest sources of GLOBAL emissions for flaring, undermining claims that we produce the cleanest natural gas in the world: thenarwhal.ca/lng-canada-b...
This Jays team is killing me slowly.
Is he resigning and turning himself in?
Ummm. No comment. 😏
The type of hard hitting bourgeois ethics one expects from the paper of record.
My Longtime Housekeeper’s Work Is Slipping. What Should Do?
Wow, that was the second awful (just awful) offensive game in a row.
Marking while watching the Jays is a spring tradition. This year I’m getting so much more marking done though because there is NO HITTING!!
Interesting ideas here...

So rather than tax windfall profits, the Liberals, the Conservatives, and several leaders of the provincial NDP are calling for or lowering the gas tax rate, depriving public coffers of needed revenue to address climate change.
An Associated Press tweet reporting that the Trump administration will keep flying a rainbow Pride flag at the Stonewall National Monument, with an image of the flag displayed in a park near a statue.
My LGBTQ+ community will never be rendered invisible. We will always stand up and fight for our rightful place.
Oh man, this is awful news. What a legend in the field.
Oh great. More Liberals.
Honestly seeing Orban get swept into the dustbin of history is the best news in ages. Kudos to the Hungarian voters for their courage in this moment.
The white nationalism at the centre of Alberta separatism continues to ignore the legitimacy of Indigenous sovereignty. This should be the end of Alberta sovereignty in its current form.

Honestly, with friends like these why would anybody support the NDP?
They clearly despise the base of the party and think and contempt for those that believe the NDP should stand for something.
utting aside that the Alberta NDP were "irrelevant" for most of its history, the contempt that the professional consulting class demonstrates for the base of the party is something else.
These "NDPers" engage in an ahistorical, red-baiting analysis that boils down to the sophisticated observation that the federal party is "irrelevant."
If you want to understand why so many rank-and-file NDPers are frustrated and tired of the corporate consulting class that has, and continues to run, so much of the NDP, I encourage you to listen to the latest West of Centre Podcast.
When journalists ask questions like this, do they hear themselves? It is an ideological position they're promoting. They surely must see this.
So timely! Congratulations on this latest book.
I just watched the replay of the Jays game. I knew they won and I was still worried when Hoffman came on to pitch in the 9th.
Arrrh. The one game I don’t watch so far this season and the Jays snap their losing streak. Maybe that isn’t a coincidence.
Congress is completely useless at this point.
