So how about those internet outages?
My neighbourhood was down a good chunk of the day yesterday, thanks to people damaging outlets, while looking for copper wire.

Canadian here.
Where is Vermont and Hawaii?
Yesterday, the Energy Department announced major investments towards Tribal communities energy infrastructure that will lower energy costs for Americans! 🇺🇸

Vermont?

Small correction, but it's worth noting we don't have Premier-elect in Canada.
It's premier-designate in our parliamentary system.
Always cool to see your former junior high science teacher back singing the anthem at the Dome.
Cheers Mrs. L!
Tickets for this game? $300/person
Cost to wear this around Edmonton & float about a Leafs win? Priceless.

This APP drama is just phenomenal.
UPDATE: In a APP Zoom meeting, Mitch Sylvestre says Tanya Clemens and Chris Scott are not board members and don't have authority to dismiss anyone.
"The fact that they're saying that they dismissed anybody from the APS board, they had no authority to do it. They cannot do it, and I'm really concerned with the timing of that."

Never would have expected this....ever.
American streamer Hasan Piker talks about the Alberta referendum.
Hasan Piker discussed the Alberta Referendum results. Hasan highlighted what everyone else should also be thinking about; the fact that a quarter of the Albertan population voted to separate from Canada. However, there is a silver lining; Alberta, Canada proved that it is not completely under the spell of the MAGA movement:
"It's still disappointing to know that there is a referendum that took place and 24% of Albertans that voted in the referendum voted to separate. That is kind of terrifying. I need you to understand:
One out of every four Albertan is a chud? That's still a lot of people.
I will say this: that puts Canada at a higher playing field than Americans. That's it. It's proven. These sorts of psyops do work in America, we do vote for MAGA, we do vote for Trump.
Even in the most conservative area in Canada, even with America pushing to foment instability in Canada, pushing for a separatist movement, Canadians are better, by and large, than Americans and even the British as well."

1. Nope. Covid-era in Ab.
2. Dunno why other reporters comply.
3. Just doing my job.
4. Reporters can police themselves. If other reporters think I am being disrespectful by pushing back against politicians filibustering questions, they can tell me. They don't need the govt to.
With 3% of votes to go, it looks like all four of Premier Danielle Smith's constitutional questions are poised to fail. The no side is now in the lead.
