Wow, I didn't realize until now how sparsely populated Alberta is. Only 5 million people in a huge area and a little over 1m voters in this referendum. And some of them are worried about immigration?! Myanmar is a similar area and has 10 times as many people as Alberta.

how is that partisan politics? showing up as a mascot for a random human interest story is the primary function of a mayor.

Does any company besides OpenAI get to misreport $20b in revenue and still get taken seriously?
