Now, tracking Alberta as I track the US, with a great deal of suspicion and misgivings, the "It's the government not the people" argument fails when you realize these people elect the same governance again and again...
The separatist movement, funded largely by American Psy Ops, hang them, hang them all. Same with the White Supremacists, the Bible Belters, it's time now for a proper purge. But as it's basically the US at this point, paid for and funded by the US, and as Danielle Smith is as more a US operative than an Albertan Politician I pay it the same amount of attention.
Danielle Smith, the entire UCP party, they'd all look a lot better hanging from gibbets or displayed upon pikes in front of the Legislature.
They are the perfect example of what happens when you remove consequences from actions.
Think of a small child. It "steals" a cookie and goes uncorrected. "That's fine" you tell yourself, and the child learns that cookie theft is OK. Child kicks the dog. "That's Fine" you say. It punches a classmate in the face at school and causes a bloody nose. "That's fine" you say "Kid probably deserved it.". This continues, action, antisocial and without consequence. Hey, wait a minute, your child is the victim here...
It continues, your child becomes an adult, steals, rapes, cheats, becomes President or Premier, cheats, steals, rapes and murders more and "that's fine" you say, because you've said it so fucking often and this is how we end up where we are today and I really, really want to take your child, you're Premier, your President, your administration, out into the woods and administer some long overdue corrections....
Anyways, all this an overlong preamble to a fine video by "The Goose" on Alberta's $320 Billion Dollar Oil Debt, which should exemplify to you how "Wealth", in the sense of Oil Companies, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, etc, is nothing more than a form of corporate welfare where consumers are expected to subsidize a fattening billionaire class for no more reason than their disregard for the same rules all the rest of us are held accountable to.

I like how the farmer points out that we have laws and rules for all of this fucking-around, only - for some people, and especially under the "current administration" - they're not enforced.

And this, a shoutout to the best grocery store in the Kootenay's, Ferraro Foods. A proper Italian Superstore with prices and selection that easily beat Save-On, Safeway and the Real Canadian Superstore.
But today I'm just in for a sandwich. Their sandwiches, a variety, cold cuts, mortadella, I go for the "Beef Dip". All are priced at $13.99. And after about 3-4 minutes when they're done making it I'm left with a 5 pound monstrosity in my hand.
I'm not kidding. It's loaded, a side of AuJus, double, triple the size of a Subway sub, 5X the meat, healthier vegetables, I'm going to making my way there again soon...
You couldn't even buy the bun for that at Kootenay Coop, let-alone the meat and vegetables. 5 Stars, Ferraro Foods.
Kash Patel - The Plot Against the King

I saw this on Facebook and thought it was just AI generated slop. But, no, even AI couldn't make this shit up.
It turns out Kash Patel's promotion to head of the FBI might have been in part due to his literary interests, for example his children's book "The Plot Against the King"; which to share the summary:
"Kash Patel partners with Beacon of Freedom Publishing House, an imprint of BRAVE Books, to bring a fantastical retelling of Hillary's horrible plot against Trump to the whole family. Full of fake heralds and keeper Komey's spying slugs, this is a story of daring and danger. But never fear! ..."
We live in the worst of all possible timelines, where the most insane things are not only true and current but continually promise more inanity to come.
On that note, I haven't published a single kids book. So - while I'm calling him out who's the real asshole here?
Anyways, you can buy it here: https://www.amazon.ca/Plot-Against-King-Kash-Patel/dp/1955550123
Or just settle for a review here: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jan/07/trump-fbi-pick-kash-patel-childrens-books

This was a Balfour beach find, I thought with all the rain to find something, only to find that the lake is so high there's very little beach to be explored. Nonetheless I found this, which while showing clear signs of work and shaping and wear does not inform me as to it's purpose. Perhaps a hide scraper?
Anyways, very out of place and matched none of the other rocks in shape or material. I'll add it to the box of artifacts...
