The UCP is dismantling our social safety net, forcing seniors to rely on the "Charity Pool" instead of legal entitlements. Cutting these benefits leads to skipped meds and ER visits, worsening the healthcare crisis. We need public support, not "benevolence". #ABleg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Thousands of Alberta seniors to lose income supplement as province faces rising provincial deficit | CBC News Alberta is making cuts to seniors' benefits and tax credits for caregivers as it faces a $9.4-billion budget deficit.

We have a $9.4B deficit but we aren't going to make any cuts. Until they do. The most vulnerable always lose in the end. Always.

Has anyone explained to the Alberta separatists that they would effectively be inviting near-permanent Liberal majorities in the country that surrounds them?

The CPC without its 30-plus seats in Alberta is barely a competitive national party.

8 Alberta community leaders share their resources for trans youth | Xtra Magazine From summer camps to affirming churches, advocates say trans youth in the province aren’t alone

Racialized Albertans are facing increased levels of hatred & discrimination.

Tommy Douglas in a black-and-white studio portrait, shown from the chest up and facing slightly to the right. He is wearing round wire-rim glasses, a dark suit jacket, a white dress shirt, and a dark tie. His hair is neatly combed back. The background is plain and softly lit, with light falling across the right side of his face and the left side in gentle shadow.

Tommy Douglas was one of the most important politicians in Canadian history.
The premier of Saskatchewan, he later led the federal NDP and was instrumental in bringing in Universal Healthcare.
In 2004, he was named The Greatest Canadian.
This is his story.
