Alberta's bid to privatize lab services wasted more than $100M: auditor general | CBC News
Alberta's auditor general has released a report detailing numerous failures in process and lack of due diligence by the province in its attempt to privatize community lab services.
Dani going to blame AHS?
"The provincial government said the DynaLife contract would save millions of dollars a year, but instead cancelled it less than a year later after numerous issues with service delivery and DynaLifeโs own financial problems."

I love the Maintenance Phase podcast.
The raw milk episode is great! Especially since so much #RawMilk bullshittery continues to persist. Because I guess spreading preventable dangerous pathogens is ok now? ๐คทโโ๏ธ

It couldnโt be any clearer. With Smithโs Maralago visit, the only premier backing out of the Team Canada approach to Trump, and her promoting perhaps the worst of all the conspiracy theorists, that sheโs not only a certifiable lunatic, sheโs a traitor to Canada. #cdnpoli

Energy and the Canadian Economy | CAPP | A Unified Voice for Canada's Upstream Oil and Gas Industry
The Canadian oil and natural gas industry is an economic powerhouse.
Just saying......
The oil and natural gas industry accounted for only 3.2% of Canadaโs overall gross domestic product.
That's awkward. For Alberta that is.

Drug dealing Harper boy Ford is a corrupt joke across Canada.
His greenbelt scandal had him helping his friends make $billions dicing & flipping lands.
Harper cut border guards/intel/drug sniffing dogs to help his Conservative criminal drug/gun/human trafficker donors.

Me, I can hardly wait for the election and for Poilievre to cut the carbon tax: So the price of groceries will plummet, my disposable income will increase 1000%, houses will sell for $150,000 again and I finally get my freedom back.
Oh, and the free ponies we'll all get.

Death threats, Jordan Peterson and me: My journey into the world of Pitchfork Politics
Some on the far right are using the language of violence to intimidate people. Hereโs what we should do, says NDP MP Charlie Angus.
Pierre Poilievre is leaning heavily into rage and disinformation.
His interview with Jordan Peterson speaks volumes about where he will take the politics of our nation.
I was once targeted by Jordan Peterson and the death threats I faced went off the charts.
