Starting at the second sentence of the article:

Johnson was banned in 2023 over comments where she compared the issue of transgender students in Alberta's schools to baking cookies with feces inside.

“We can be top three per cent but that little bit of poop is what wrecks it,” Johnson said in audio from a 2022 talk at the Western Unity Group in Stettler.

“This is more than a teaspoon of poop in the cookie batch, right?"

Not just Mormons, I've heard it from Catholic Priests and from Baptists.

Dollar per kg conversion for those numbers, this is /Canada on .ca after all:

  • The Turkey the dad bought last year: $8.82/kg
  • The Butterball in the picture may be as cheap as $7.45/kg, or as expensive as $9.11/kg
  • Walmart $6.61/kg
  • across Ontario at Independent $5.51/kg
  • other Loblaw stores are $4.40/kg

Were all the prices you saw the same brand?
I don't eat animals, so I don't really have a solid price in my head for what it should cost. I do remember as a child that Butterballs were more expensive, so we never had one.

Tell his wife that he loved her, because love is "gay" and "feminine"

Firstly, audibly expressing your heterosexuality isn't gay.
Secondly, there is nothing feminine about 2 guys loving each other, they are both guys so it's the most masculine sexual/romantic pairing.

There will for sure be some "Creativity" with their numbers.

"Carbon Neutral" will only apply to the manufacturing of the product, not the life of the product.
It will probably also only apply to the assembly that is done in-house. It might not apply to things like the tires.

It will also probably be done through some bulllshit "carbon credits", which are about as honest and reliable as those "no, our $2 chocolate definitely didn't use any child labour, and the farmers definitely aren't paid slave-wages." badges you find on foods.

The goal posts for both sides are very, very different.

The invading Russian forces have basically failed their first goal; to fully take over Ukraine. They can now claim a minor victory by stealing more territory from Ukraine than just Crimea.

Ukraine's goal was to stop Russia from wiping them off of the map. Things appear to have changed. Their new goal is to retake all land that Russia has stolen (including Crimea).

The war has largely been at a standstill for a while, and the only times that Ukraine has been able to make progress is when the word has given its attention and resources. Since "Israel vs Hamas" is the guerre-du-jour, Ukraine seems to be getting less of both.

So I may sound like a doomer, but it's not looking good for the good guys. They have a much harder victory condition, and the resources that they have relied so far may be drying up.

Choices are not made by 1 person in an organization.
Getting rid of one person isn't solving the program, pretending that it is is insulting.
