Danielle Smith Delivers an NDP Budget | The Tyee But big deficits, more spending and no plan are apparently OK from the right.

One has to read to the end of the piece to stop being rankled by the first short paragraph. Alberta can't seem to come to terms with the fact that oil doesn't pay for everything - can't contemplate a PST or a change to the lowest provincial taxes.

Eeepps

"A sharp slowdown in population growth and lingering trade
uncertainty will be a drag on economic growth this year."

- From Alberta's new budget while Alberta simultaneously (and falsely) blames an excess of immigrants for the cost of everything.

Agree and yet from a moral truth standpoint we are being governed for and by a few aggressive Alt right “people”. It’s not a stretch to say she lacks bravery as she refuses to govern for the hoi palloi

The existing Alberta senior and pay pharmacare used to be great but the UCP has watered it down and increased co-pay to the point we need the federal system. Need to vote these people out.

Canada may have the smartest leader in the world

"This has never happened in Alberta’s history, and it reflects the profound harm caused by the Premier’s embrace of separatism."

The NDP have released a statement on the Assembly of Treaty Chiefs vote of non-confidence in the UCP.

Another American behaviour. Todd Loewen not my favourite

Alberta Legalizes Hunt Pens for Deer & Elk Alberta legalizes enclosed hunting, reviving a cruel sport that lets hunters pay to kill captive deer and elk trapped behind high fences.

In case you missed it. 💔

"The Alberta government recently passed shocking laws to let hunters shoot and kill caged deer and elk.
..
Alberta legalized cage hunting despite decades of recognizing this practice as unethical and cruel."

$2.3B allocated to new crown corporation supporting Alberta health agencies Alberta is creating a provincial corporation, Health Shared Services, to centralize corporate services between its four health agencies.

So…

We’re spending 2.3 billion to replicate the services that were built into our former integrated system because Dani was committed to disintegrating it?

Very interesting and reassuring

Opinion: Smith and Poilievre find someone to blame for their problems: immigrants Canada has seen rapid population growth in the past without the issues now being attributed to newcomers

9/9 Coyne argues that deflecting public discontent onto outsiders is simply the easiest path for politicians in trouble, allowing them to whip up resentments rather than fix complex domestic problems.

Andrew Coyne,

Poilievre: "Conservatives are the party of Sir John A. Macdonald.
The party that created Confederation.
The party of Canada."

Nope. The Conservative Party of Canada was created in 2003. Trying to claim to be the party of Confederation is stolen valour.

“It might just be rhetoric for Danielle Smith to get her base fired up. It might be way for Pollievre to try to look relevant given polls but as soon as it comes out of a leader’s mouth it hurts people! It’s wrong!

No anti-immigrant rhetoric 🇨🇦 @arlenedickinson.bsky.social

He’s a poser of our real leader Prime Minister Carney.

I think of this often.

“It is wrong!” On The OShow Arlene Dickinson speaks out powerfully against Danielle Smith blaming immigrants for her own government’s problems 👀🇨🇦 youtu.be/EKp6M-Q2k8s?si…

“She did a campaign where she invited people to move to Alberta then there was burden on the healthcare system, and there was burden on the infrastructure she blamed immigrants …and it’s wrong!”

Arlene Dickinson on Danielle Smith’s leadership

Obviously she doesn’t. She’s queen of putting out fires with gasoline

The push back by loyal Alberta loving Canadians would be more aggressive too
