Donโ€™t call it a distraction. This is the thing she is doing! Fight back against it and tell people why sheโ€™s wrong about immigration

respectfully, you really needed someone to point this out? You're a seasoned journalist, accredited political analyst - and this wasn't the first thing that occurred to you the minute the separatist hoo haw began in earnest?

One of the things that personally drives me crazy in the U.S. is how youth sports/athletic activities went from a part of the public good (municipal leagues and fields! rec centers! public parks!) to a privatized, expensive, highly competitive, highly structured pursuit for wealthy kidsโ€™ rรฉsumรฉs

I have many complaints about the ANDP, but a big one is how slow they are to react to breaking news. Itโ€™s been 14 hours since Bruce McAllisterโ€™s tweet about non-white people, and I havenโ€™t seen a single NDP MLA respond. In a 24/7 social media climate, this is totally unacceptable.

Absolutely. this poisonous bullshit cannot be put back in the tube. Rural Alberta in particular will become more untenable for say a Nigerian doctor or Somali business owner. The remigration jack boots are emboldened by separatist sentiments and a sympathetic provincial govt.

U of A looks to remove EDI from hiring policy | CBC News The University of Alberta is proposing to eliminate Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) from its hiring policy, a year after the school initially said it was moving away from the term.

New emails obtained by CBC through access of information show that before announcing the end of EDI at the University of Alberta, the president sent his announcement to the UCP before publication.

How's that for institutional neutrality?

that's exactly how my wife and I use it biking home from Riverhawks games and I'll guarantee a vast number of Folk Fest attendee's do the same. Many many fare jumpers - a real chin scratcher why there's no fare enforcement at that particular time...

The leader of the separatist citizen initiative campaign is a UCP constituency president and a large number UCP members support Alberta separatism. This is a big part of Smithโ€™s political base.

Theoretically, a Canadian government that wanted to shield people from the crisis could place serious price controls on groceries, rent, transportation and energy. It could commit to real public health programs in the face of viral chaos down south. It could re-invest in community programs/services.

cbc just gave this guy a whole puffpiece where he lied about how his nazis are totally not friends with those other nazis.
it would be completely irresponsible journalism, except that cbc isn't even pretending to do journalism at this point.

For those who don't know, remigration is a European far-right concept of ethnic cleansing via the mass deportation of non-white minority populations.

I took this photo today in SASKATOON within hours of the ICE remigration Gestapo executing another person in the US.

respectfully, this is nuance mongering horseshit from our public broadcaster. Analysing/reporting on the internal dynamics of this organization is legitimizing their endeavour. Open your rolodex of corporate/academic/financial Alberta elites and get them on record whether or not they are separatists

he knows that we know he's lying. he's telling us we're all terrorists to him. he's telling us that to dissent is now a capital crime. he's telling us they'll shoot us, too, and they'll say we deserved it.

Grievance and deference are the only two acceptable political positions in Alberta. If migrants, the disabled, the poor or any other marginal community fight back/show solidarity they are completely ignored by legacy media et al - but there will be blowback from cops, ngo funders etc.

Mayoral candidate Gomberg explains to Dan Carl, from CBC's Radio Active, why there is bias in media.

Read Chomsky to reach the same conclusion.

what's the intersection between Alberta separatists and the re-migration nazi goons hanging out on bridges in Edm/Cal? How much of the foreign interference money is flowing through to them? We know ICE is just a proud boys redux, what about Alberta brown shirts? CBC Edm ask a real question challenge
