Somebody somewhere said that the Puritans did not leave Britain to escape religious persecution, they left in order to perfect it.

Just like when the Conservative Party of Canada and the United Conservative Party in Alberta use the word conservative in their party name.
They are just Reform Alliance and/or Wildrose.
They use the 'c' word to fool the rubes.

URGENT: Stop Alberta's Government From Overriding Charter Rights of Trans Youth Healthcare is a right, protected by evidence, compassion, and core Canadian values.

I thought I heard a rumour that the petition re Neudorf was filed by an ally of his in order to preempt the recall process.
These shenanigans make it a bit more believable.

The ones the UCP is letting die are of limited human capital.

It's hard to fathom the depth of the ignorance of some folks.

The road to fascism is lined with people telling you to stop overreacting.

I just love this! The negative publicity hitting the UCP right now is PRICELESS. They handed the opposition their campaign material on a silver platter and ran right into their own #StreisandEffect. Talk about self-sabotage! Thanks Jenny and team!

And RJ Sigurdson's comment about destabilizing government is pretty rich considering he's scored a 'yes' from the Alberta Republicans who want to destabilize the whole country.

But with Peterson Law that wouldn't happen.
It's freedom of expression don't cha know.
Freedom to FA without the FO.

That harpy still has me blocked on Facebook back from when she was an MLA.
Looks like she's gotten worse over the years.

I was never a proud Albertan but was never ashamed to be one. Now I and many others are. Ashamed and angry.

Danielle Smith is a traitor. Why Carney tries to placate her I'll never understand.

The party is infected by the Harper-Manning Rot which has run rampant for 20 years.

No studiesโ€ฆ. No evidenceโ€ฆ. Pure political ideologyโ€ฆ and worse, it keeps on despite years of evidence showing the important access metrics are getting worse and worse for all ABs

However there are one or two of us 'motherfuckers' who are working for MLA recalls, pressing for public healthcare/public education funding, and making a bit of good trouble. We're doing our best.

They have all been tainted by Harper, Scheer, Poilievre, Manning & the Christian Dominionists, racists, & misogynists who were welcomed into the fold.
They need to gut their caucus of those rabid right wingers to make them palatable for many Canadians.
The PCs never scared me. This bunch does.

- lowest minimum wage
- highest insurance costs
- highest emissions
- highest youth unemployment
- the only place you have to pay for a covid booster
- highest electricity costs
- craziest premier

Guess the province.

The Accidental Advocate Three Albertans reveal why silence wasnโ€™t an optionโ€”and how they became advocates for their communities by speaking up.

We are excited about this event! If you live in the #St.Albert area we would love to see you.

She and her pals never miss a chance to kick someone while they are down. Their theft of the Canada Disability Benefit from AISH recipients is appalling.

I think of her now as Marlaina bint Smith due to her affinity for Saudi Arabia. I wonder if she has met Mister Bone Saws yet?

As an Albertan I find this horrifying. This shit is right up Smith's alley and her poop-cookie MLA, Jennifer Johnson, will push hard for it.
