Alberta Funds Public Schools
A Citizen Initiative petitioning the Government of Alberta to improve its Public Education funding model.
Alberta pours an egregious amount of public funds into private schools. Weโre one of only a few provinces that fund private schools at all, at higher levels than any other jurisdiction. Meanwhile, public schools continue to be defunded and attacked. This entire situation should outrage everyone.

Itโs always interesting to me that all these anti-trans bigots like to claim โbasic biologyโ as a shield for their hatred. Yet, when you ask them to explain, their understanding of biology falls far short of โbasicโ. ๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ

Just a reminder to anyone who wants to lick Peter Lougheedโs asshole as some stellar example of an exceptional Premier, heโs the reason we have the Notwithstanding Clause, and also why Albertaโs economy is so heavily tied to selling our garbage product to the US. So he can eat shit IMHO.

Really, truly amazing that OpenAI wants us to believe that they are worth a trillion dollars but also they are so desperate for revenue that they created an infinite SlopTok app that opens them up to a billion lawsuits just so that they can maybe someday make it even worse by filling it with ads.

Because youโre saying, as a politician, as someone who claims to be interested in leadership, that you lack either the skills or the will to discuss with your constituents that they should try compassion and empathy. You know, some of the most basic skills we teach children. Thatโs too hard for you.

Arguing that economic issues are all that matters, to the exclusion of all else is the same delusion as โfiscally conservative but socially progressiveโ. So youโre debasing the humanity of multiple people for what amounts to a fantasy.
But thatโs just how itโs offensive. Itโs also lazy AF.

And when you claim that social justice isnโt deeply and intrinsically intertwined with economic justice, youโre either being purposefully ignorant to appease bigots, or youโre very charitably misinformed.

and therefore itโd be better if you could let that small minority strip you of your dignity and right to exist so we can pretend we have a chance of winning an election by offering no meaningful change or redress to the systemic injustices doled out to your community over generationsโฆ

Speaking as a physical embodiment of a โhot button issueโ, when you say that the electorate doesnโt care, what youโre really saying is, โYour right to humanity makes a small minority of people uncomfortableโฆ

Iโm incredibly frustrated by the argument that so-called progressives keep making purporting to โmeet the electorateโ, or to steer clear of โhot button issuesโ because people donโt care about that, or anything that mentions a purity test. Not only is it outright offensive, itโs so blatantly lazy.

I maintain everything Iโve ever said about rural Alberta. Battle River-Crowfoot, despite what you say, you sure must love Ottawa. As you just elected the Ottawa establishment, personified, to never represent your interests in parliament. Congratulations on fully embodying the dumb hick stereotype.

Pretending that the story is about people not having a connecting flight only serves the capitalist class that exploits us all. As the public broadcaster, you should show solidarity with the workers, not the billionaire asshats that say stupid things like โdefund the CBCโ. ๐

CBC embarrassing themselves. Again. Bothsidesing a labour dispute is gross. You serve the public. Even if we buy the BS that youโre โneutralโ, saying passengers are โcaught in betweenโ is not. Maybe try reporting how attendants arenโt paid for their work, or the bonuses of execs. You know, facts.

It is incredibly disappointing that the CBC somehow continues to find infinite time to platform the delusions of a minuscule amount of AB separatists, whilst also limiting and bothsidesing topics like genocide, the climate crisis, and the rights of trans people to exist. #cdnpoli
