"Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could?
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul."

#ACanadianLivingInAlberta does't have the same health benefits enjoyed across Canada. The #AlbertaDisadvantage is the UCP government. Book at an AHS facility to avoid the injection and uplift on the vaccine. The AHS facility fee is $100

Sadly there are way too many rats feasting at the table prepared by the UCP of Alberta. Canadians living in Alberta can't wait for the next election to clean house of the UCP rat infestation. #ACanadianLivingInAlberta

This is what free speech is all about! Unfortunately the Alberta government is working to mute Canadians living in Alberta in effort to create the "Kingdom of Alberta". #noAlbertaRoyalty

The government of Alberta Canada is leveraging "strong" arm tactics and not free speech and open negotiations. They are not interested in listening to parents, students or teachers. They are only interested in lining the pockets of privatization.
New motto should be "Alberta dumb and dumber"

The Alberta advantage will be an advantage to the AI world if they can raise the capital, address carbon sequestering problems to make these "almost green" data centres. They to be heavily regulated to prevent Canadians living in Alberta from being gouged.

What do you think made America great?

I’ve traveled the world, and every time I come home, I’m reminded of what makes this place special: the culture, the mix of people, the constant diversity. I love this country.

And I also know who truly hates America:

• The KKK
• 3 Percenters
• Proud Boys

Locking people up for being poor, sick, or in crisis doesn’t solve the problem and in fact makes it worse. When people are detained instead of supported, they often lose housing, jobs, and vital connections. That instability drives desperation, which fuels crime and social harm. (1/6)

Do you think that breaking the boycott will make you welcome in the United States? Think again.
Finger printed, photographed and vehicles thoroughly searched. You better hope you don't have a conviction for smoking marijuana when you were 18.

Worthless? Sudbury MP counters Poilievre’s Critical Minerals Strategy dismissal In Val Caron on Thursday, Conservative Party of Canada Leader Pierre Poilievre told Sudbury.com that the federal Critical Minerals Strategy is ‘worthless’

Pierre Poilievre is at it again. Trashing the strategies that are building up industries. He has never shown any interest in the northern economy. He just uses our region as a platform for rage ranting.
Slogans don't build economies Pierre.

Don’t let this make you quieter.

Get louder.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.
