Recently, UCP government advertised that “Alberta is open for business”, wanting to grow Alberta’s population to 10 million by 2030.

Now, influx on new Canadians is blamed for overcrowded hospitals, schools, and deficit.

In reality, mismanagement is the culprit, not immigrants.

One of the frustrating things about “mainstream” reporting on these right-wing alt-media outlets is they describe them as “partisan” or assume they’re trying to get Poilievre elected

If you actually listen to them, they tell you exactly what they’re trying to do – namely normalize extremist ideas:

Because paying a player that much money to be a shitty teammate is a tough look. The C acts like a lacquer for hockey dinosaurs.

It’s incredible how many headlines that focus on Jamil Jivani are prompted by Jivani personally feeding self-serving information to media outlets about himself or Jivani releasing misleading statements implying he’s assumed some kind of national leadership role

Alberta seeks more input on picking judges Premier Danielle Smith says her government will withhold funding for new judicial appointments in Alberta until Ottawa allows the province to provide input on who is picked. In a letter to Prime Minis...

This is a monumentally irresponsible move. Whoever advised the premier should resign or be fired.

Smith shouldn't just withdraw the threat. She should apologize for threatening to cut off Albertans' access to their own justice system.

Tomorrow.

Canada’s biggest grocery giants — including Loblaws, Sobeys and Metro — are using property law to control how other grocery stores, dollar stores, pharmacies and gas stations can compete with them, an investigation by CBC’s Marketplace has found. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Is the Supreme Court's Secession Reference Still Relevant? The media has been talking a lot about secession lately, with an organized separatist movement in Alberta (albeit with support that looks increasingly weak), and the spectre of a third Quebec vote pos...

Look at info wars/alex jones. Our small minded separatists in Alberta are BIG fans of Alex and his faux populism. When I was a kid, Libertarians and Populists did not think of themselves as fascist, but look where they find themselves in 2026…Cheering for a police state and the end of democracy.

Just so we're all clear: the folks using direct democracy to push for Alberta separatism have a problem with....democracy.

And, as I keep repeating, the link between opposition to COVID public health restrictions and support for Alberta separatism becomes more and more clear.

Alberta separatists promoting Ezra Levant talking to Alex Jones tells you everything about Alberta separatism, and for that matter, Ezra Levant

I'm back on QAA this week, talking about the YouTubers who travel to London to tell their audience that western civilization is collapsing, and that England's supposedly lawless, multi-ethnic capital city is at the heart of it. The episode is called London Has Fallen.

Alberta’s Fiscal Crisis Is Self-Inflicted | The Tyee The petrostate’s fortunes ride on the oil price roller-coaster. That could derail the UCP.

Andrew Nikiforuk: If Trump succeeds in dropping oil prices to $50 a barrel (and who knows what the orange monarch will do next) the Alberta government stands to lose tens of billions.

That means even bigger deficits and a political crisis of enormous proportions. #abpoli #uspoli

Do Canadian MPs actually connect with the public on X?

I looked at RTs and views for every tweet* sent by Liberal MPs yesterday

Out of 46 tweets, 21 Liberal MPs racked up a combined 475 retweets

34% had zero RTs. Only 17% got more than 10 RTs

3 tweets accounted for over half of all engagement

Call of the Wilde: Montreal Canadiens withstand barrage to take 6-2 win Boston - Montreal | Globalnews.ca The Canadiens tried to win this one with talent, while the Bruins tried to win it with brawn. Brian Wilde has more on Tuesday night's Montreal-Boston matchup.

One team wanted to win it in the alley; the other wanted to win it on the ice. And without a good goalie early, braun may have won it.

Also, what each player, the coach, the GM wants for Christmas as I have a bit of fun in this Call Of The Wilde for Global Montreal.
