I just booked my first riding lesson in about 35 years! I figured it was about time to get back in the saddle again…so excited! And nervous but mostly excited

Such a huge loss

The costs of coronavirus vaccines and their pricing

If this is what the drug companies are charging, why is the Alberta Government going to make people pay ~$100 per dose?

“Moderna and Pfizer were charging more affluent nations and the EU for their mRNA vaccines with prices ranging from $14.70 to $23.50 a dose.”

Return, compensation and full apology. Anything less is unacceptable.

Retour, indemnisation et excuses complètes. Toute offre inférieure à ces conditions est inacceptable.

The person destroying vaccines, clean water, pasteurization, and almost all public health accomplishment in the last century wants you to know it's your fault if you are unhealthy.

There’s a nonzero chance you will die from a cancer that could have been curable because people who couldn’t pass 7th grade biology and are scared of things like “mRNA” and “riboflavin” and “walkable cities” decided to make their ignorance everybody else’s problem

Alberta is definitely Canada’s version of a red state

Way to go Alberta. This was totally preventable

Yet Alberta is going this route? Danielle Smith is so dangerous. #ableg #cdnpoli

Another turn for the worse in the CorruptCare scandal.

Demand a public inquiry now ➡️https://corruptcare.ca

Smith was directly asked today if her new plan for surgeries in Alberta would gut the public system and allow access to public facilities for private for profit operators...

Her response?

"Mmmhm"

No.

For reals.

PP voted against: NATIONAL SCHOOL FOOD PROGRAM, Canada Child Benefit, building nearly 4 million homes, the first home savings account, tax cuts for the middle class, raising the federal minimum wage, $10 a day child care, Canadian dental care plan.

If he really cared about these issues he wouldn’t have voted against solving them.

There’s some stunning info in the new @ParklandInst report on surgeries in Alberta…

And it seems pretty clear that private for profit surgeries are choking out the public system.

I spent 3 days at Jordan Peterson’s anti-climate ARC conference. Here’s what I saw The Alliance for Responsible Citizenship is the global far-right Woodstock, with political and thought leaders mingling with the business elite, conservative nobodies — and me.

Hopefully this investigation actually gets some answers

Easy to lose this in the noise of the day, but the prime minister of Canada just said the US president, leader of the global hegemon, wants to soften us up economically so he can annex us.

That is one of the most remarkable statements, and realities, in our history.

Smith will never live this down.

Your regular reminder: Albertans don't want public funds flowing to private schools. But the government benefits from the myth that they do.
