Nav Can refutes ever having a conversation with Danielle Smith, that she claims they had, about the chemtrails over Alberta.

She's so used to lying it's just pervasive in her day-to-day discourse. She's like JD Vance but with less mascara.

When she said she talked to the lady who controls what's in the sky, could she have meant she talked to Lucy in the Sky?

Looks like they understand the value of regulatory stability. That would imply that their attack on renewables was malice, not stupidity.

Good ol' politics.

I'm a bit perplexed by this as the 7-eleven on Elbow has a new sign up advertising "Beer & Wine" available. And the website indicates that I can even order it for delivery from them. Maybe this is licensed differently?

https://www.7-eleven.ca/beer-and-wine-ab?gad=1

It says Dine In is an option, maybe I'll go snap a tall boy at the Sev after work. Fifteen year old me would be proud.

I think the province had permitted a few trials at some 7/11's. That must be one of them. Take a picture for posterity, probably won't be around much longer.

There was previously something where some convenience stores had applied to be licensed as restaurants so that they can apply for liquor licenses and sales. From what I understand. In those cases the staff also needs ProServe (or whatever it is called) and also needs to comply with restaurants guidelines for health and safety and inspections.

If I'm not mistaken the alcohol at those stores is only accessible by the employees so there isn't just a publicly open cooler with booze in it.

Strange for sure- I just read that the other 7-11 on Elbow and Southland is closing. Good location with terrible access

I'd probably need to drink on the job, too, if I worked at a 7/11.
