Must reading for Albertans trying to understand UCP MLA Brian Jean's explanation of how the rejected Grassy Mountain strip-mine project in SW AB came to be un-rejected after having been rejected. Fear of law suit from Aussies? Really? Then let them sue. stalbertgazette.com/local-ne…

#Supertrawlers are massive trawlers, up to 144m long, using huge nets up to 1km long to target pelagic fish. Capable of catching thousands of tonnes of fish per trip, with disgusting levels of #bycatch, these marine ecosystem destroyers must be stopped. blueplanetsociety.org/the-de…

Kirstin Beardsley, CEO of Food Banks Canada, says that most of the issues are at provincial and municipal levels. The federal gov't has little to no blame for food security issues.

This is absolutely outrageous, unethical and borderline corruption. Void of data to see the effects of government policy, they are free to continue to make decisions with no accountability. Alongside the ongoing privatization of surgery (using public money) we NEED this data.
Alberta Health has decided to stop collecting data on patients dying while waiting for surgery and diagnostic. This sort of secrecy is unhealthy, by Colin Craig calgaryherald.com/opinion/co… via @calgaryherald @SecondStreetOrg @DennisKendel #SecretCanada

We knew this a month ago when trapping limits were removed...more importantly, Todd Loewen, a trapper himself, knew this a month ago, yet still did what he did.

So now we know that wolverines should be listed as a Threatened spp in Alberta, will Minister Loewen actually pay attention to the science for once or will he continue to ignore it at the expense of our wolverines?
Replying to @kentomologie
The researchers found "that there were 955 wolverines in the province," which "falls well below an IUCN threshold for a legally listed species". They "suggest a reassessment of the wolverine status in Alberta and considering commensurate #conservation actions".

I may have napped most of New Year's Day. When I am leader of the Universe there will be New Year's Second Day holiday because I think we all deserve a second day to recover from the year before.

Baltimore's drop in homicides - 23% since last year and a staggering 40% from two years ago - should be a national story. Mayor Scott's Group Violence Reduction Strategy, which prioritizes resources to those most at risk and community engagement, should be studied and replicated.

1. Wow. Our Chief of Police sure has a thin skin & hypocritical intolerance of the right of & need for citizens to freely express their opinions about policing. Despite claims to the contrary, he's obsessed with criticism by social media. As they say... edmonton.ctvnews.ca/countdow…
