Of course, I am happy that the Strait of Hormuz will soon be open. That's a good outcome for the entire global economy. But the Strait was opened before the war. We did not need a war to keep it open.

To everyone so eager to cancel someone for a tattoo they got at age 22, a drunk text, a selfie they took in the middle of a mental health crisis: Show us your laptop. Show us your iCloud. Open your entire digital life to your worst enemy. No context. No filter. No explanation. You won’t. You won’t because you know what I know. Any one of us, frozen at our worst moment, photographed in our lowest hour, looks like a monster. Looks like a stranger. Looks like someone who deserves to be cast out. That is not who we are. My mom and baby sister were killed in a car accident when I was just a kid. Cancer took my brother Beau, my best friend and my rock. I battled alcoholism. I battled addiction. I chose the coward’s way out more times than I can count. For years I believed the defining chapters of my life were written by tragedy, loss, and shame. I no longer believe that. Pain can shape us. Loss can humble us. Failures can leave scars that never fully fade. But none of them have the authority to define us. And it sure as hell ain’t the critic that counts. That authority belongs to us alone-the person in the arena. Every setback presents a choice. Play the victim, or cut the bullshit and take ownership for who we become next. Life does not determine our character. It reveals it. Again and again we are asked the same question. When shit happens, what next? We are not defined by what happened to us. We are not defined by the worst photo, the worst text, the worst tattoo, the worst night. We are defined by the person we choose to become. And by the courage to choose that person, every single day. So before you reach for the gavel - show us your laptop. You won’t. The whole world saw mine. And I am still here. Still becoming. Still choosing. Still standing. That is the only definition that matters.

31 years ago today Alanis Morissette released her album, Jagged Little Pill. It would go on to sell over 33 million copies worldwide. Did you have it?

Alberta, what do you get out of the $91,000,000, yes, $91 million referendum? Nothing. This $91 million could have been spent on building 3 schools, or 4 senior homes, or emergency rooms, hiring doctors or nurses. Instead, you get nothing. facebook.com/share/v/1Ayhqhs…

For the umpteenth time: Do not believe ANYTHING Trump says about this war. He’s been lying about it from the jump. He lies about everything, this war is no different. Iranian state media and the Iranian regime are more believable than the American president. That’s an astounding thing to say, but it’s true.

I was privileged to welcome the Global Energy Show to Calgary. Our city has earned its place as one of the world's great energy capitals, driven by innovation, investment, and the skilled people who power our industry. The world needs more Canadian energy, and Calgary is leading the way. == full remarks == Welcome to Calgary. The world has come to Calgary this week. The Global Energy Show brings together investors, innovators, policymakers, and energy leaders from around the globe. There is no better place to host it than Alberta. Our province is home to some of the world's largest energy reserves, one of the most skilled workforces anywhere, and a growing pipeline of projects that will help meet global demand for decades to come. The world needs more Canadian energy. Alberta is ready to deliver it. Because what brings us together this week is bigger than energy. It is about economic security. It is about competitiveness. It is about whether Canada will seize one of the greatest economic opportunities of our lifetime. Around the world, demand for energy, electricity, AI infrastructure, critical minerals, LNG, and advanced manufacturing continues to grow. The countries that provide reliable energy, reliable infrastructure, and reliable partnerships will shape the future global economy. Canada should lead. We have the resources. We have the workforce. We have the expertise. We have the technology. We have the environmental standards. And we have something increasingly valuable in today's world. Stability. The world is looking for trusted suppliers, secure supply chains, and dependable democratic partners. Canada can provide all three. Few countries are better positioned. Which brings me to the choice facing Alberta. At the very moment the world is looking for more Canadian energy and more Canadian investment opportunities, some want us to spend our time debating separation. I believe that is a profound mistake. Albertans have legitimate frustrations. We need better market access. We need to build projects faster. We need a stronger voice in Confederation. But there are two ways to respond. One is to fix Canada. The other is to walk away from Canada. I believe we can fix this country. And I believe we must fix this country. Because uncertainty comes with a cost. There is a reason the Bank of Montreal is no longer headquartered in Montreal. There is a reason investment flowed out of Quebec during decades of constitutional battles and referendum campaigns. Political uncertainty drives investment away. Businesses delay decisions. Capital looks elsewhere. Jobs disappear before a single vote is ever cast. Alberta has far too much potential to spend years talking itself into uncertainty. Every major economy in the world is competing for investment. The United States. China. India. The Middle East. They are focused on growth. They are focused on building. That should be our focus too. Alberta's future is strongest within Canada. Our prosperity is tied to Canada. Our access to global markets is tied to Canada. Our investment climate is tied to Canada. Canada's advantage comes from combining our strengths. Alberta's energy. British Columbia's ports. Ontario's manufacturing sector. Quebec's aerospace expertise. Together, we have the scale to compete with the world's largest economies and the opportunity to become an energy superpower. That future is being built right here. Calgary has become one of the world's great energy capitals, bringing together innovators, investors, entrepreneurs, engineers, researchers, and skilled workers to solve some of the world's biggest challenges. As Mayor, my focus is simple. Build housing. Build infrastructure. Build trade corridors. Build power generation. Build the conditions for investment and growth. Because the countries that thrive in the decades ahead will be the countries that build. This country was built by people who thought big. Railways crossing mountains. Ports connecting oceans. Energy infrastructure stretching across a continent. Every generation has been called to build. This is our generation's turn. The choice before us is clear. We can spend the next decade arguing with each other. Or we can spend the next decade building together. We can create uncertainty. Or we can create prosperity. I know which future I choose. A strong Alberta. A growing Alberta. A confident Alberta. Leading within a strong and united Canada. Because when Alberta succeeds, Canada succeeds. And when Canada succeeds, Alberta succeeds. The world needs more Canadian energy. Let's deliver it. Thank you.

Tim Allen says he and Tom Hanks "have this little lunch spot" and sometimes confused fans approach them saying they sound just "like Buzz Lightyear and Woody talking."
