Pretty tough stuff here for Poilievre and co.

Thank you for doing this work! I am so appreciative of every single one of these fantastic volunteers! ❤️🙏🏽

You would say that Holly, you’ve always been such an advocate of the militarized petrostate. Everyone knows this about you, me, and all other so-called “progressives” who are not smart enough to agree with Lewis on all aspects of his view of the world

And there it is, folks! Question 5, about 8 minutes in to Question Period, we have our first instance of Danielle Smith using the federal campaign as a cudgel against the ANDP.

I was in politics during covid but now live with lifelong disability from long covid. This book is as stupid on the politics as it is the science.

This book is trash. Don’t waste your time, listen to this 2-part podcast instead.

Princeton beclowns itself with this clickbait masquerading as a “book.”

Wtf - we built or modernized 244 schools over the 4 years and hired 4,000 teachers. Sometimes I forget how she just lies in the Legislature

Evan Soloman ( @evansolomon.bsky.social the Federal Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation) needs to respond to this.

THIS

The UCP has been in power for 51 of the last 55 years but according to Danielle Smith it's the family who arrived six months ago that is wrecking the province.

I re-read Hannah Arendt’s Eichmann in Jerusalem: on the banality of evil last spring/summer.

It’s useful and helpful to remember that Eichmann’s job was head of deportations.

In 2024, Danielle Smith wrote a letter to Justin Trudeau to complain that they didn't get *more* immigrants than their planned allotment. (She also wanted more Ukrainians specifically, and we all know why).
Receipts:

Listen to Max, folks. He speaks reason.

Can’t blame you

A screenshot of a tweet from Danielle smith, posing awkwardly in a team Canada jersey cheering on the Canadian women’s team. A reply from the Alberta NDP reads “@grok I think this account’s been hacked.”

LMAO @albertandp.ca (the comment)!

(Smith probably has a team USA jersey on underneath that.)

Corporate Income Tax General rate dropped from 12 to 8 under Kenney

Provincial Income Tax break for the middle bracket cost at least 1.3-1.5b iirc - was a Smith 2023 promise they implemented last year

Probably 4-5b right there. Maybe more, I haven’t looked at the math in a couple of years

I do, in fact, remember the day when WTI sank to $28/barrel, we had a Treasury Board meeting that day, we were dealing with the upcoming Budget.

I also remember the clear direction from Rachel Notley: we will not make Albertans suffer for the oil price roller coaster. And we didn’t.

So

Basically the King is doing No Kings better than the Americans.

Hi @davidcoletto.bsky.social -- why did you choose these countries as a comparison for Canada rather than, I don't know, Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States?

It’s better here, I assure you Frank!

There’s room for a Gary-Doer-esque argument: much done, more to do. Honestly that’s a bit of chicken-counting at this point: there’s an 8-10-ish point gap to make up first.

For sure it’ll take a long time, but to signal a clear plan to fix immediate issues that affect a broad swath of voters concerned about HC, they’ll have to 1) lay out understandable, non-policy-expert plans and 2)probably be a lot more sweeping, as a comms matter, than experts are comfortable with

One of my favorites, too!

Today in: rich guys are just idiots of the Internet

Let me just make a few little adjustments to that title…

“How a scientist with a PhD in Geology and 25 years of experience is helping lead California’s earthquake work”

Way to devalue my experience.
