Cancel every last contract
Palantir CEO Alex Karp is signaling a shift toward Democrats following their midterm victories, criticizing Trump's immigration crackdown and Republicans' approach to economic justice.
Despite securing billions in federal contracts under Trump, Karp said Democrats had corrected course enough to potentially win his support in 2028.
“I've been a Democrat my whole life. I grew up in a far left environment. I know more about being a progressive than almost anybody on the planet,” Karp said.
On immigration, Karp welcomed Trump's acknowledgment that enforcement had gone too far, saying: “I'm glad he's saying in public now what I've been saying in private.”

Maybe your position is still your standing official letter of demanding more immigrants

And the money isn’t for taxpayers
Alberta produces oil to make money, not to employ people.

Sounds like it’s time to seize the wealth of these oligarchs
Elon Musk cautions that the time left is short:
You have 3 years at most to keep earning from selling your work. After that, AI takes over most tasks, and paying people for their time stops making sense.
The 200-year-old model, "I give you your salary in exchange for your time", will soon be over.
This will set off the largest wealth transfer in modern history. People already making the shift get it. People waiting for the headlines will show up too late.
In the end, what you own counts for more than how much you work.
The smartest asset to build right now ranks above Bitcoin and land: an income stream powered by AI that compounds while you sleep.
How many sprawl communities did you vote yes on Dan?
Areas to cut are up for debate
Ward 13 Coun. Dan McLean said there’s no way Calgary property owners want to see double-digit tax increases.
“A double-digit tax increase is unacceptable to Calgarians at this time when they can afford it the least,” he said.
McLean said he’d be targeting things like Calgary’s $35 million Safer Together funding, which he says duplicates police and fire work, and the $40 million in funding that fed the city’s downtown conversion programs.
“We’re throwing hundreds of millions of dollars at something the private sector can do,” he said of the latter.
“If you want to decrease the vacancy rates downtown, just knock that building down. They’re old, Class-C buildings. They should just be knocked down. Put a park or a Superstore there, not an ugly office conversion.”

That’s a 41% increase in 4 years!!
NEW: Calgary’s proposed budget calls for a 15% increase in property taxes in 2027, followed by jumps of 10% in 2028, 7.7% in 2029 and 6% in 2030.
If passed as is, next year’s property taxes hike would be the largest single-year increase in Calgary in at least 30 years.

Every team has a former cop type figure who works for them full time and runs security for the players
They are usually very close with players as well
If there was anything, they Jets would have been notified
Follow up: Multiple sources say Connor Hellebuyck did not notify the Winnipeg Jets (or Winnipeg Police) last season of any fan behavior "more than just online death threats."
Hellebuyck did notify #nhljets that him and/or his family were targeted online on the night of State of the Union and appropriate action was taken. But sources said Hellebuyck did not apprise #GoJetsGo of any additional alleged actions, threats, vandalism or fan behavior that "crossed the line" until late in the summer with training camp approaching.
I bet you are
They gave you $1B
