Affordability is the single greatest problem in #Alberta and this government is doing absolutely nothing to stop it. Instead of pandering to big insurance companies, we need politicians who are going to fight for Albertans to be able to afford to live and work here #abpoli #ableg

Province refuses to release early results of its Alberta Next surveys Postmedia sought early replies to surveys around an Alberta pension plan and immigration but the province has refused to release the results

Pretty sure the point of consultation is to actually find out what people want and need, and then make decisions based on the results. #UCP is just going through the motions to check a box, so the results don't really matter, do they? #ableg #abpoli edmontonjournal.com/news/politic...

Alberta government changes expense disclosure policy, removes eight years of records | CBC News Key changes to Alberta’s expense disclosure policy mean that the receipts of senior government officials, including the premier, will no longer be public.

The difference?

Before, if MLA’s wanted to buy a $500 bottle of wine, they knew that reciept would be made public.

Now?

It’s just a vague “Food and Beverage” line item.

Because this government can’t handle accountability.

Hear us out, what if we just stopped paying millions for panels and just put that money into the services they claim are not working and should inevitably be privatised? #ableg #abpoli #panelfatigue

This is an amazing moment. We will see how much the government wants to make trans kids suffer if they continue to fight this decision in any form or fashion. We will also have a metric for their cruelty. #ableg #abpoli #transrightsarehumanrights

Alberta Party Tired of angry, divisive politics that seems hopelessly stuck in the past? The Alberta Party is a fresh, positive and creative approach to getting things done in Alberta.

Politics in 2025: "All the evidence says that reducing child poverty has lifelong benefits for those children, and will save us money in the long run... but it just doesn't poll well enough. Now throw another 100,000 kids under the campaign bus, please"

Ah yes. Friday before a long weekend press release, featuring not 1, not 2, but 3 ministers in charge of various parts of healthcare. If you're wondering why we are spending more money and getting less services, we can start by looking here: www.alberta.ca/release.cfm?... #ableg #abpoli

Exclusive: Carney says ‘yes’ to building a pipeline if consensus exists for one While previously touting his pledge to make Canada an 'energy superpower,' Mark Carney went further on Tuesday, explicitly saying he supports building a pipeline if the consensus exists for one.

What's Danielle Smith going to complain about now?

(Everything. She'll still complain about everything.)

UCP Placed Mraiche Business Partner on Edmonton Police Commission | The Tyee Dr. Jayan Nagendran’s appointment by Public Safety Minister Mike Ellis raises ‘more concerns,’ say critics.

Alberta government to spend $180M for involuntary addiction treatment centres | Globalnews.ca The government of Alberta has announced plans to build two involuntary drug addiction treatment centres in the province, in Edmonton and Calgary.

Or here's a thought - maybe start with spaces for people who actually want to get clean instead of making them wait? Not to say anything about how unconstitutional forced treatment likely is #abpoli #ableg globalnews.ca/news/1103295...

Albertans are slowly waking up to the depths of the scandal enveloping the UCP government.

A lot of folks are wondering how to explain what's going on to people who haven't been tuning in.

Here's the what, so what now what, and what's next of the situation. 🧵

Alberta surgical companies with contracts under scrutiny linked to firm that imported children’s pain meds Documents show that the company that facilitated purchase of children’s pain medication and a pair of proposed surgical facilities share a common owner

A new @carrietait.bsky.social & @alannasmith.bsky.social story reveals that Alberta's Turkish meds importer had stakes in proposed private surgery co's tied up in AHS ex-CEO's allegations. So much in here: www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber...

This government needs to be held to account - Albertans deserve better. Every MLA who stays with the UCP is complicit in allowing this to happen. #ableg #abpoli #AHS #resign

Not problematic AT ALL... #ableg #abpoli

We Stand With The Rest of Canada

This weekend, Premier Smith will be travelling on your dime to support someone hell bent on diminishing #Canada and #Alberta - stand with us in telling her this is not what Albertans want #ableg #abpoli www.albertaparty.ca/alberta_stan...

We would like that, yes.

Don't besmirch the good name of Elmo. Even if that guy is a Muppet.

There are two things you can do on your way out as a politico - lay down or light 'em up. #cdnpoli

Nothing unites the political class like a common adversary. So I guess we can all thank #trump for bringing together #Canada at every level #cdnpoli #notamerica

There have been at least 4 Mondays in the last two weeks - happy end of holiday limbo to all those who celebrate. You have to finish the cheese this weekend #limbo #backtowork

The point of consulting people is to take their views into account and adapt. It's not a check box on the road to doing whatever you want #ableg #abpoli

Jimmy Carter's post-presidency example of doing good for the sake of doing good, without expectation of (or desire for) any sort of special recognition for his efforts, speaks to the true measure of his character.

My thoughts from 2023 stand. His was a life so well-lived.
