Last night’s dusk over Calgary and the Bow, from St. Patrick’s Island.

The RCMP are now investigating, though I’m not particularly optimistic that there will be any real accountability.

What stands out is that Elections Alberta’s press release—at least from what I can tell—doesn’t mention the source of the complaint at all.

By contrast, the RCMP have been quite direct in identifying the ANDP as the complainant.

What it means, I don’t know. Possibly nothing—I just found it interesting 🤔

Damn… with everything going on in the province right now, trying to live your “best dystopian life” is seriously exhausting… 😂

So here’s a little distraction: this beautiful girl turns 10 months old today 🐾

Glad they traced the electoral list Parker’s team used...

Dipshit separatists 🤬

But if it was public for any stretch, data brokers have likely scraped and sold it. Oh, fun! Telemarketers here we come!

Who else had access—violent exes, stalkers? Many at-risk people could be in real danger.

Wonder if the RCMP or Privacy Commissioner will step in… except isn’t the PrivCom's office basically neutered because of recent UCP policies?

The World Cup starts in 44 days ⚽

If you had to pick 3 teams to support, which ones would you choose?

Mine would be:

→ Australia
→ Canada
→ Scotland

Well, that settles it —Albertans must be masochists, or maybe just plain foolish, or perhaps both.

According to the latest Janet Brown poll, the ANDP is haemorrhaging support and therefore our dystopian adventure will continue. 😭

This makes it clear —we need a viable third option, one that can actually make inroads in rural areas where the ANDP has always failed to gain ground.

And this might be an unpopular opinion, but Nenshi is a dud.

It never ceases to amaze me how this dog, like clockwork, waits by the window for my girls to come home from school.

And please excuse my dirty window 😳

G'day, I’m Dave! 👋

Welcome to my little corner of the Fediverse.

My profile gives a decent glimpse of who I am, but the full story lives on my blog

I often share from my micro.blog account: @writing

And I hang out on Loops too: @Lucha

Most of my social media is private but I do tend to follow interesting folk back.

I’m generally friendly… though I can get a bit snarky, especially about football, religion and politics 😂

Ah, of course—V for Vendetta tops the list of books removed from Alberta school libraries.

Because nothing screams “educational hazard” quite like a fictional revolutionary anarchist taking on a Christofascist, homophobic, white-supremacist political regime.

Yes, let’s protect young minds from dystopian fiction that eerily mirrors reality...

Heaven forbid they learn anything about resisting oppression—or thinking for themselves.
