- Preston Manning is in today's Globe & Mail calling for a sustainable energy security strategy for North America.
- Obama2Canada.org has been launched to raise awareness of the environmentally damaging effects of the oil sands before President Barack Obama's 5 hour Ottawa visit with Prime Minister Stephen Harper on February 19.
- Edmonton's Twestival hit the front page of the Edmonton Journal this morning.
- In a recent poll, new Federal Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff was viewed more positively than negatively in every province except Alberta across all age and gender groups.
- More evidence of the continued implosion of the CanWest media empire. I was sad to hear that the Calgary Herald will be letting go many of its freelance writers, including political writer Les Brost.
- There's some interesting ongoing debate on the state of Liberal politics in Alberta in one of my previous posts.
