Braid: With monster fine and ban on words, UCP locks down political landscape Bill 14 would institute hefty penalties for anyone who misuses information collection during a petition drive while also limiting the use of some words in political party names

So authoritarian threats and intimidation begin.

Danielle Smith, obey the Constitution, honour First Nations Treaties and respect nearly half million #ForeverCanadian Albertans, and you won’t have to fear me.

You and I differ. I follow the law.

We are sinking to unnecessary deaths under Danielle and her dreams ...

AB has only one chance ... election on or before 2027 ... if UCP wins ... most of us lose.

You're grabbed by the story ... the dialog ... the pictures painted in your mind by the words ... visuals augment but don't need to be 50 feet across ... don't need shaking seats ... don't need odorous venues ... those are for popcorn vendors.

"Tis the season" ...

... but E/R halls being adorned with incoming patients was probably not the meaning of that carol ... 🥺

America's regression through aggression is Trump's mantra.

Respect for the rule of the law is not a characteristic of Danielle Smith and the UCP party as a whole.

Hasn't been very often lately that I like what the Alberta UCP government does ... but ... as rare as that seems to be nowadays ... I am certainly able to pass on my compliments and support for this announcement by Minister Amery.

Opinion: Ideology over expertise putting health care at risk The greatest danger now facing the system is the absence of qualified leadership.

Must read here by a former senior AHS executive. Alberta's healthcare system is being run into the ground by ideological Dunning-Kruger politicians.

Good 🧵

"We honestly can’t afford another ignorant and ill-informed experimentation with our HC system."

Unfortunately it's already in motion.

If they're elected again in 2027 (or whenever she wants to go to the polls) Canadian HC in AB is toast.

Situation ‘dangerous’ with grizzly loose following attack in B.C. community, officials warn As conservation officers work to capture a grizzly bear that attacked a group of elementary school students and teachers in a remote B.C. community this week, locals have been urged to stay indoors.

How to Fix Western Alienation - Macleans.ca Ottawa feels out of touch. Spreading the federal government across the country would rebuild trust.

Good read.

Today's world makes it too easy for the worms and slugs of society to crawl out thinking they're performing meaningful social action.

I hope @lukaszukab.bsky.social might want to create a party to carry the progessive conservative banner in AB.

It's been gone for a dozen years.

Some stayed with the stench of the UCP ... some leaned orange ... but if such a group arose, you'd be surprised at just how many want to come home.
