UCP MLAs' silence is complicity as democratic norms are eroded. Does even one of them have a spine?

By the Office of the California Governor β€” December 7, 2025: A Proclamation on Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day.

By the Office of the California Governor β€” December 7, 2025: A Proclamation on Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day.

"On this day 84 years ago, Imperial Japan launched an unprovoked attack on the United States Naval Base at Pearl Harbor, killing more than 2,400 American service members and civilians and destroying much of our nation’s Pacific Fleet. This attack led President Roosevelt to call on Congress to declare an act of war the next day, stating December 7, 1941 would be a 'date which will live in infamy.'

"On Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, let us reflect on the meaning of sacrifice and heroism and pay solemn tribute to the American heroes who gave their lives to make the world more safe, free and just."

Today, we honor the Americans we lost 84 years ago during the tragic attack on Pearl Harbor.

As we reflect on the painful losses of that fateful day, we remember those who defended our nation and the courageous individuals who signed up to serve on battlefields across the globe.

The Premier of Alberta is pushing an American meme about the court system when she says courts shouldn't weigh in on constitutional matters. That's an American idea and look where it's gotten them. The courts job is to remind govt the constitution applies to them to. #cdnpoli #ableg #abpoli

It's pretty rich for a Conservative premier who is anything but conservative introducing a law to restrict what party brands others can use.

ANALYSIS | UCP government keeps blocking or nixing Alberta court challenges. Why? | CBC News From transgender policies to referendums to "conservative" party names, the Alberta UCP has stepped in where others have feared to tread.

The β€œnew generation” of conservatives, Wesley added, have vastly different perspectives.

β€œThey care less about institutional forbearance and more about owning their opponents,” he said.

These changes are literally stealing from the poor & disabled. It's unconscionable. Many have no transportation & are lucky if they can find a doc to fill out their forms. A horrible headache for the unfortunate recipient & takes time & resources from clinics.

Today is #InternationalDayOfPersonswithDisabilities.

The UCP Government has failed to support vulnerable people on AISH or families on FSCD.

New Democrats are fighting for #accessibility legislation & will always be there to advocate for those who need it most.

Activists hold Calgary rally over change to disability benefits Disability advocates will rally on Wednesday to oppose the Alberta governments proposed Alberta Disability Assistance Program.

The UCP say they support people with disabilities in Alberta, but that is a complete lie. No one wants the changes to AISH or the clawback to the disability tax credit. Jason Nixon and Danielle Smith need to go and get lost. #yeg #yyc #yql #ableg #abpoli

WOW!

Danielle Smith looks like she's getting ready to throw someone under the bus!

When the Globe asked how Sam Mraiche ended up in an elite advisors suite on election night, she punted it to her advisors...

Among them Rob Anderson & Marshall Smith
