It should be! Sound bite time limits are ridiculous for proper Q&A.

Always a great sign for how things are going in your country when 21-year-olds are like “hey, I innovated a system to play bagpipes in tear gas”

Thanks for this @klaszus.bsky.social. Seeing Calgarians lamenting these Olympics is maddening because it was known in 2018 that we couldn't afford it. "The bulk of those savings was found in security and essential services". Paris spent $2.32B on security in 2024. The 2018 entire estimate was $4.6B.

Danielle Smith defends plan to withhold funding for Alberta judges | Globalnews.ca Smith said during her call-in radio show she would rather get to a conclusion that's amenable, fair and includes parity in the appointment process.

We're only calling stuff like this 'fascism' cuz it is, you know.

#UCP does not have your best interests at heart.

This appears to be the "Second Sons", a white nationalist group organized by Jeremy McKenzie of Diagolon fame on a bridge in Alberta.

And it should be condemned universally.

Alberta cuts access to health care for some temporary workers, raising concerns in the Bow Valley | CBC News Alberta has stopped offering provincial health coverage to some people on working holiday and young professional visas, a change that came into effect earlier this year without a public announcement. ...

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith has mused about cutting or limiting public services for temporary residents. It turns out that already happened last month with public health insurance www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... #AbLeg #AbHealth

Who’s the seemingly Cdn in this email from 2009? There is either a g or y in the email address I think, you can see it peeking below the reaction line .. Whoever they are, their muscles were a cranky over 40 set

Nailed it. Alberta doesn’t have a "Canada" problem; it has a leadership problem. #ABpoli #ABleg #Cdnpoli

One of the U.S. admins plans is to Crimea or Donetsk us. This helps them. CSIS warned us

First, the UCP said there was an “election integrity crisis," which led to a voter ID law.

Then a “national unity crisis” → a sovereignty referendum.

Now a “crisis of confidence” in the courts → defunding judges.

There is no evidence of these crises.

The UCP is trying to manufacture them.

It’s refugee immigration.. that’s a Federal loophole that needs closing isn’t it?

Maybe they should? Employee wages are stagnant are they not? I know ranchers aren’t making the profit Cargill and chains are. Not sure what I’m trying to say.. it’s late and I’m frustrated w the Galen Westons of Canada (still haven’t rec’d my price fixing money yet).

French Ministry of Foreign Affairs: Investigating child sexual abuse material isn’t controversial. Turning it into political theater is manipulation. Maybe that logic flies on some island. Doesn’t fly in France.

Alberta seeks more input on picking judges Premier Danielle Smith says her government will withhold funding for new judicial appointments in Alberta until Ottawa allows the province to provide input on who is picked. In a letter to Prime Minis...

This is a monumentally irresponsible move. Whoever advised the premier should resign or be fired.

Smith shouldn't just withdraw the threat. She should apologize for threatening to cut off Albertans' access to their own justice system.

Tomorrow.

Yes, Danielle Smith is a separatist Alberta's premier says she supports "a sovereign Alberta within a united Canada." Her actions tell a much different story — one that makes her position on the issue impossible to ignore.

She keeps getting chances to show some loyalty to Canada -- and keeps turning them away in order to defend Alberta separatists and their cause.

It's who she is. It's time we all started saying it. #cdnpoli #abpoli
