Where's the premier while MLAs rush through an all-night debate on stripping Albertans of their Charter rights?

An airport lounge, waiting for a flight to Saudi Arabia. She didn't even bother to show up for the vote.

I remember when conservatives turfed premiers for this level of hubris.

The Premier is ordering teachers back to work by invoking the notwithstanding clause from the airport lounge. #ableg

Police in Airdrie, Alberta (just north of Calgary) say this driver hit a 17-year-old girl in a marked crosswalk, got out of the vehicle, and appeared to get upset at the teenager before driving away.

They released this video and are now trying to identify the driver.

How many people have to die before the city drops “vision zero”? Throwing some asphalt on the side of a 60 km road and making people cross the road without any infrastructure doesn’t feel like vision zero.

Sun glare factor in Friday morning pedestrian collision in Edmonton’s Stillwater neighbourhood A 73-year-old man is dead after being hit by a truck at a southwest Edmonton intersection early Friday morning. It happened around 6:30 a.m. at the intersection of Stillwater Boulevard and 23 Avenue. ...

Another Pedestrian death in south west Edmonton. This time along a MUP with no safe crossing infrastructure, not even a painted crosswalk. #yegbike #yeg

America is now North Korea with better entertainment.

At tonight’s “consultation”…

When a high school kid tried to raise concerns about the teachers strike, Bruce McAllister cut the kids mic and then suggested his parents should have beaten him more.

Listen to the clip yourself…

Alberta governments have mused about using the notwithstanding clause before.

Albertans have stood up for human rights, forcing the government to back down.

Now is that time once again.

Alberta's minister of THE ENVIRONENT AND PROTECTED AREAS is on CBC's Power & Politics, arguing that what we really need to do to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is produce more oil and gas. So here we are. Fucked fucked fucked.

Good Wed. morning, all.
After listening to Minister from Alta. Schulz, on PnP, a reminder that the greatest threat to our national security is mis/disinformation. She dished it out in spades to all Canadians, without any fact checking in real time. #CBC ,this is not ok!

Their lack of knowledge on bike lane engagement is surpassed only by their lack of self-awareness.

Or

watching this made me ovulate

Hard to tell which happened:

1) Putin didn't say this, he wouldn't make the embarrassing error of "no country has mail-in voting" when many countries like Germany and UK allow it for all voters.

2) Putin really did tell Trump this knowing Trump would repeat it and humiliate the U.S. even more.

🤷‍♂️

I really do feel awful for Ukrainians watching this. Putin kidnapped 20,000 of their children and forced them through "re-education" camps and the future of their country depends on his ability to flatter the softest ego imaginable
