Common Sense

Alberta children wait more than a year for important diagnoses due to physician and staff shortages.

It shouldn't be common in Alberta for a child to be forced to wait more than a year for a mental health and/or developmental care diagnosis. With the school year approaching, pediatrician recruitment, retention and support are required.

Edmonton weather: Thunderstorm risk late today, rainy Thursday A sunny and warm start across the Edmonton area and most of central and north-central Alberta.

Much nicer morning than expected - but still looking at a risk of showers/thunderstorms for late today and rain Thursday. Here's your Wednesday WxBlog:

All CSGs in Alberta must be shut down NOW until all investigation is complete. Every person involved in this corruption, including politicians, must be arrested and charged!

worst creep to ever hold the office

While the U.S. spirals in disinfo, Canada faces its own threats—from Poilievre’s $8.8M expense tab to calls to defund the CBC.

This isn’t just about cuts. It’s about control.

CBC is our line of defense. We don’t just need to save it—we need to protect it in law.

Opinion: What's next in for-profit care in Alberta? Your local hospital? 25 years after Klein passed Bill 11, that opened the door to more private for-profit involvement in health care, the UCP is at it again.

Private hospitals are bad for patients, bad for staff & bad for the public. Yet Alberta is still dead set on pushing through Bill 55 to enable private hospital ownership!

Tell this government to stop prioritizing private profits over our health care needs: rebuildourhealthcare.ca

So, uh... What softer side? I've seen him in Ottawa for 2 decades now, and believe it or not, the campaign trail was the most tame and non confrontational I've ever seen him act. There is no softer Poilievre.

You need to kick him out #cdnpoli #canada #canadasky #canpoli

What bothers me most about all the F🍁ck Trudeau & F🖕ck Carney truck decals is the total spinelessness they reveal.

The cowards don’t even have the conviction to write “Fuck” properly. “I didn’t swear. See? It’s patriotic!”

Swear or don’t—shit or get off the pot, you tedious little gremlins.

Blue-filtered photo looking up and diagonal at a wing of the Alberta Legislature. Overlaid text reads: "Our Public Hospitals are at Risk if Bill 55 is Allowed to Pass. Read FOM's release: friendsofmedicare.org/news"

ICYMI: "Allowing Bill 55 to pass would queue things up for the government to very quickly turn over our public hospital infrastructure to be operated by private, for-profit interests”: Chris Gallaway.

This is beyond concerning.

good riddance to #PeePee

#cdnpoli #NeverVoteConservative

I'll say it again - the Postmedia news empire, 140 'Canadian' newspapers controlled by a Trump-supporting US hedge fund, all speak with one Conservative voice on election day, even selling their front pages to look like 'news'. Don't be fooled. #cdnpoli www.postmedia.com/brands/

Alberta to claw back federal disability benefit from AISH recipients | CBC News The federal government is rolling out a new Canada Disability Benefit this summer but qualified recipients in Alberta won’t see the extra money if they already receive payments under AISH, or Assured ...

The #UCP is consistent in their belief that:

• Oil companies are too poor; and

• AISH recipients are too rich.

Jack Layton would have been a good PM... #cdnpoli

Pierre Poilievre spends too much time with his MAGA friends.

During fall of 2024, when I began to suggest it would be necessary for LPC & its supporters to thank former PM Trudeau for his dedication and everything he’s delivered for Cdns, while asking him to step aside in order to save our gains, I couldn’t have imagined this scenario.

What a wild ride.

'Canadian people loathe this idea': CNN fact checker rips Trump's 'wildly unpopular' claim.
CNN's Dale examined some of Trump's claims about Canada and found them lacking in proof.
In short and as usual Trump is nothing but a self serving liar and windbag.

A Twitter screenshot of a quoted tweet. The first is by JD Vance, saying: Today while walking my 3 year old daughter a group of “Slava Ukraini” protestors followed us around and shouted as my daughter grew increasingly anxious and scared. The second, from Tim Miller, says: Dozens are dead in Ukraine because you stopped giving them the intelligence that protected the country from bombs so you can probably handle some yelling in a free country, boss.

This is classic right wing gaslighting. They do horrendous things and then complain about people being “uncivil” to them for it. And it works, for their base. They think the left are “intolerant” and “extreme” because the dead babies are far away and the American babies are on TV.

The American Century is Over Making China and Russia Great Again

Trump’s address to Congress was a long-winded, dishonest, & authoritarian spectacle. He criticized Biden, falsely claimed economic victories & played the bully by removing Rep. Al Green for protesting. But more concerning than his rhetoric is the broader impact of his policies. Jen Rubin explains.

#TheTruth is... #Trump is an egotistical zealot with a small mushroom penis that quit working a long time ago, so he is devoting his attention to taking over the world.
