We need to see Trump with clarity.

Any Canadian who doesnโ€™t blame Trump first and foremost is the equivalent of someone who blames the sitting government for wildfires or hurricanes.

At a certain point, embracing this administration acquires the whiff of disloyalty to oneโ€™s country.

This is horrific.

Danielle Smith is dismantling the public healthcare system, and this is the result.

When is enough enough, Alberta? I mean come on. No amount of devout party loyalty is worth screwing over kids with cancer.

Love this!

Note that for many Indigenous Nations of Turtle Island, women have the final say about Land. When colonisers were negotiating treaties, only men were invited, meaning that there was no possibility for treaty negotiations to include transfer of Land to settlers.

The Alberta Funds Public School petition signature collection has started in Medicine Hat. My wife is one of the certified canvassers. Currently, we're going door to door. As time goes on, we'll be doing pop-ups. Let's get it over the top AB.

Down @ city hall for the Calgary student walkout & I'm SO impressed by the energy and rage of these high-schoolers!!! Many kids agreed that it's infuriating that the AB govt won't pay teachers more, yet they want to use OUR tax dollars to let O&G companies walk away from cleanup! #ABLeg #YYC #ABPoli

Province misses OIPC deadline to release Alberta Next survey results The government has refused to release results of the surveys following multiple access to information requests from Postmedia.

"The government relied on similar arguments under prior legislation to keep secret the results of its 2023 pension plan survey before relenting nearly two years later and releasing the results which showed 10 per cent of respondents sought to form a provincial pension plan." #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Toxic wastewater from oil fields keeps pouring out of the ground. Oklahoma regulators failed to stop it. Salt water laced with cancer-causing chemicals, a byproduct of oil and gas drilling, is spewing from Oklahoma oil wells.

The UCP don't care about Albertans, teachers, students, workers, vulnerable people... They only care about power. And the people have the ability to take back the power.

I think I am still running on adrenaline.ย It has been a whirlwind of a 90 day campaign.
But it is you, Albertans, who shined.

Yes, we received nearly half a million signatures, but we also built a #ForeverCanadian movement, a community.

Thank you!

UCP hasn't been listening to teachers; they're unlikely to start now The UCP pulled out their "get out of the Charter-free card" in "the freest place in Canada."

"Much fanfare was made of Albertaโ€™s Bill of 'rights' back in October 2024, with the Premier claiming that 'Alberta should be the freest place in Canada, and (the UCP is) committed to making that a reality.'

'Committed' is such a vague word, really."

6/6 McGowan's declaration has escalated the fight, transforming it from a teachers' dispute into a direct confrontation between the UCP government and the province's entire organized labour movement over the use of the notwithstanding clause.
