"If there was any doubt remaining that Alberta's nearly seven-month moratorium on renewable-energy projects was a political decision — made in the halls of power rather than in the offices of expertise — it was erased by internal documents released to the public last week."

Fun Home, by Alison Bechdel, is a brilliant, poignant queer coming-of-age story, a literary classic that was later turned into a Tony-Award-winning musical. It's a graphic - only in the sense that it's a graphic novel, or rather, a memoir. But it's not porn. It's not titillating. Moral panics like this make us look absurd. https://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/extremely-graphic-sexual-content-found-in-books-at-k-9-schools-province-says #abed #abpoli #ableg #Alberta #yeg #yyc
