We are adjourned. Bill 2 passed.
Not a single UCP MLA voted against dear leader's wishes, even in her absence. Every single one of them stood (many times) in order to strip teachers like me (about 51 000 Albertans) of our rights as workers.
Shame.

Last time I checked providing students with a quality education does make economic sense. You know, since βthe children are our futureβ and all that.

The other UCP MLAs were supposedly smoking brisket at the Legislature tonight as well. Because you canβt be stripping rights from teachers and demolishing public education without barbecue apparently π¬π¬π¬

A province with no sales tax, low corporate tax, who constantly bails out oil companies and subsidizes bullshit saying THEY CANT AFFORD TO FUND SCHOOLS is basically a criminal admission of incompetence. #ableg #abpoli

I was just watching Bonnie Chritchleyβs live outside of #ableg while they vote on Bill 2. There was smoke coming out of the buildingβturns out the UCP are celebrating already. With a brisket. π let them eat brisket π #abpoli #cdnpoli βtruly sick behaviour after taking away constitutional rights

Have you ever wondered how the far right manage to normalize their ideologies into the mainstream, as weβre now seeing in the United States?
Well, let me explain it to you β because theyβre trying to do it here in Canada, too, using the term βremigration.β

Because most major media outlets in Canada are owned by conservative supporting companies. And the conservatives in Alberta are pretty supportive of separatist nonsense.

CBC Calgary just had an American podcaster on talking about the greatness of Trump and how Trump is really just trying to show all nations their OWN greatness by standing up for America.

Me earlier today: Oilers got Frederic? Depth forward wasnβt their biggest need but uh, okay I guess
