This is of course complete rubbish, and treasonous rubbish at that.

You can also install KDE Plasma on Linux Mint: https://linuxiac.com/how-to-install-kde-plasma-on-linux-mint-22/. My own distro right now is TuxedoOS with KDE Plasma (Can go on any hardware, not just Tuxedo computers) and it works great for me.

So unfair. They all got fancy jackets and everything, why doesn't the report mention that.

Absolutely. This is a great example of why we need a thriving public broadcaster. The lesson from the United States right now is very clear: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/jun/06/trump-funding-cuts-npr-pbs-rural-america

It's not "a lot of Albertans". It's conservative political messaging, pushing the idea that Alberta pays into equalization transfers. Alberta doesn't pay a dime into equalization.

The Alberta oil economy is thriving

There's no such thing as an Alberta oil economy. Most of the shareholders in the Alberta oil companies are foreign. https://policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/august-2023/foreign-oil-companies/

We need to be investing in electric mass transit. Powered by renewables.

There's a lot of words missing in in the first statement. Shareholders in American auto manufacturers other than Tesla want to get rid of the electric vehicle mandate. Also note that elsewhere in the world internal combustion cars are losing ground to electric vehicles. Do we really want to attach ourselves to this sinking ship?

A good alternative to Youtube is Freetube, a Youtube client that prevents tracking. https://freetubeapp.io/

CMHC is not run by the Prime Minister or the cabinet. It is a Crown Corporation governed by a Board of Directors. Mr. Carney has not "redefined affordable housing". https://www.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/about-us/management-and-governance/board-of-directors-and-its-committees
