In 1959 BERTRAND RUSSELL was asked what message he would most like to pass on to future generations.
His answer resonates perhaps even more strongly over 60yrs on.

* An Oxford comma walks into a bar, where it spends the evening watching the television, getting drunk, and smoking cigars.
* A dangling participle walks into a bar. Enjoying a cocktail and chatting with the bartender, the evening passes… Show more

After the partying, drinking and dancing... now we start with the analysis
WOW what an indictment
A sitting US President committed deliberate espionage against the USA
WOW. We knew it happened, but now it has been said by DOJ in legal court documents

I will be searching for options outside of Alberta now.
There are many MDs doing so.
If you voted UCP, when you can't find a family physician or an open Emerg Dept, or you can't afford what the doc is charging ... you can't say you weren't warned.

I teach in AB. Today we made class lists for Sept, & there will be 34-35 students in each class. We were also told that our school will lose half of our educational assistants in Sept. This is the UCP effect on K-12 Ed. I honestly can’t believe people voted for this sh*t.

Exactly. I will be reminding people this is EXACTLY what they voted for.
Quote Tweet
Reminder for everyone who voted for UCP: Yes, you DID vote for this. Paying for your own healthcare, Alberta police, having your pension taken over, christo-fascist ideals in the legislature, corrupt bigots & homophobes in government. Never say you didn’t vote for this. You did.
