Everything this government does seems to have negative impacts explicitly aimed at the West.

Yup, those dainty, fragile students who cannot countenance views that differ from their own are being offered counseling because of the possible psychological damage incurred by Shapiro’s rhetoric.

CFL Picks, Week 12
The second set of the Labour Day Classics, the Back to Backs…unless you’re Hamilton or Toronto, in which case…IS THE CFL CRAZY? I hate that they don’t have the rematch. Why not just give BC their two byes together?
Friday:
Montreal @ BC. Montreal is in for another beat-down, I’m afraid.
Saturday:
Riders @ Bombers: This will be the game of the week but Saskatchewan will lose a squeaker.
Hamilton @ Ottawa: Ottawa is tough to beat at home. Sorry Hamilton, the streak was short-lived.
Calgary @ Edmonton: Edmonton knows what went wrong last week, they will still lose.
Double face-palm

Did we learn nothing from 100 years of limited alcohol distribution and regulations?

As of 31 July, Alberta has already experienced a record 41 hours of wholesale electricity prices at $0 per megawatt hour (MW/h), according to a National Energy Board press release.
The record number of $0 hour occurrences in 2017 coincides with higher than usual electricity imports from British Columbia during the month of June, 2017.
Maybe we should close down those coal plants more quickly.

Unprecedented case could affect Liberals’ political future
The potential political consequences of a sitting premier testifying in open court on allegations her most trusted adviser and a prominent Liberal fundraiser bribed a would-be Liberal candidate cannot be overstated.
Leaving aside this trial, the Liberals have foolishly, recklessly and repeatedly treated Ontario as their own fiefdom to rule as they see fit — and the rules be damned.
