Chills. Thousands of Alberta high school students walked out of class to the legislature. They’re fighting back against UCP attacks on education. They’re standing up for teachers. They’re our future and I couldn’t be prouder. ✊🩷

Marriage of UCP + APP = vows of Alberta Next. #AlbertaNext #ABpoli

"For months now, I’ve been on a grim tour through the lives of Albertans with disabilities, and what I’ve seen of this UCP government’s handiwork is, to put it mildly, an absolute disgrace."

www.cma.ca/about-us/wha... CMA calls on Alberta government to refrain from using notwithstanding clause to interfere with patient care #abpoli #ableg #Alberta #CMA #NotWithstanding #Bill26 #trans #transgender #gender #affirming #care #medical

Like a typical conservative premier, Danielle Smith is going to quash minority rights, though use of the heavy handed notwithstanding clause. Nothing riles her base like attacking vulnerable minorities. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #politicalcartoon #daniellesmith #transrightsarehumanrights #FireTheUCP

Charlie Angus on Trump, Maple Maga, and What Makes Canada Great @CharlieAngusNDP catches us up about his new podcast, the Resistance Tour (and blog), and his take on US and Canadian politics. Canadians are like no one else, he says. #cdnpoli #canada youtu.be/9XRuq0NYhwM

"I had a difficult, necessary conversation with someone about disabled Albertans who are starting to wonder how they can go on. Affordability is out of reach." dasheibz.substack.com/p/today-chan...

At the Legislature yesterday

What happens when a Premier threatens to use the notwithstanding clause every time a law is challenged? Our democratic safeguards erode. The rule of law becomes negotiable. A fragile democracy is a dangerous one. #cdnpoli #abpoli #ABleg

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 allies please be loud! Our kids need you more than ever. Tell your MLA you will not stand for the notwithstanding clause. #abpoli #cdnpoli

Premier Smith had downplayed & denied any intention of invoking the notwithstanding clause to protect its transphobic legislation from being struck down. Now, behind closed doors, internal government documents confirm their plan to strip away the fundamental rights of Albertans, particularly youth.

Where do you see yourself? #ABpoli

Ruth Ben-Ghiat stated in a zoom today "Who doesn't show up is very important." There are those that act and those that don't act in defending the vulnerable.

Jon Auger writes, "The CorruptCare scandal isn’t just another Alberta political controversy. It’s a slow-motion train wreck, and the next crash site is September 24, 2025."

We have sent a letter to Charlie requesting info. We would love to organize a town-hall for St.Albert.

Here's what the Alberta Information and Privacy Commissioner Diane McLeod said today in response to Premier Danielle Smith's announcement yesterday that she's making citizenship markers mandatory for driver's licenses. Statement from McLeod in full: #ableg

My latest. "This plan looks less like streamlining and more like risk stacking: more data on more cards shown to more people, with unclear guardrails and unfunded administrative burdens. "...The citizenship marker project will likely be scuttled on the shores of logic, logistics or law."

Big red flag if the privacy commissioner doesn't know about this. #ABpoli #ABleg

"Meanwhile, the minister in charge of the change, Dale Nally, said Tuesday that "because we live in Canada, there will be no discrimination." WOW, something coming from a party that is all about discrimination, #Ableg #ABpoli Lets talk vaccines, AISH, gender discrimination.. #Ableg #ABpoli

This 👇

So #Calgary #YYC Edmonton #YEG showed #AlbertNext and #DanielleSmith what we thought both inside and outside. . Can't wait to see what you have to say.

Dark times when reading the headlines. Let's all take care of ourselves and keep building community. Time to be surrounded by like minded community.

We may not have the power of the office but we have the power of INTEGRITY. #ABpoli

The UCP government is leaving Albertans with more questions than answers with this latest move to include citizenship markers on provincial IDs.

Don't let @daniellesmithab.bsky.social tell you that there's no money for teachers or disabled Albertans when the Alberta government spends over $76,000 on a retreat at the Chateau Lake Louise #cdnpoli #yeg #yyc #yql #FuckTheUCP #FuckSmith #ableg #abpoli

Willful Neglect: The #Alberta government has said it ordered approximately 485,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses for the upcoming respiratory virus season and that it can order 20 per cent more if needed. During the 2024-25 respiratory virus season, 742,901 doses were given out in the province.

Bloom where you are. Be you!

"First they came for..." is not just a poem. It's a playbook for policy in Alberta. From the AISH benefit to dental care, and trans kids to cis girls, the pattern is clear. Silence on one issue makes you vulnerable on the next. #ableg #albertapolitics #AISH #Abpoli

Our small, informal group made a big impact at the AB Next event in Edmonton. We captured the attention of both TV news and The Sun's front page, and our Monday rally sparked a conversation on a St. Albert Facebook chat. It just goes to show that you don't need a large group to make a wave! #ABpoli

www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art... This is how you know your Government isn’t actually for their Constituents!

Clean up your MAS is a campaign to stop the Alberta government from making taxpayers pay for oil and gas cleanup costs. Do you think the government of Alberta should scrap the Mature Asset Strategy and ensure oil and gas companies pay for cleanup? actionnetwork.org/forms/clean-... #ABLeg #ABPoli

Truly excellent...👇 Confessions of an Ex-Anti-Vaxxer macleans.ca/longforms/co... "The anti-vax movement isn’t simply a grassroots network of concerned parents. It’s an industry. It’s lucrative, selling supplements, e-books, courses and products." Pull: Uncertainty, fear, and search for community

This needs to be screened in towns and cities across Alberta. This is what the TBA and UCP agenda is. youtu.be/Ykll4MWltsQ?...

The AB government has all but abandoned Public Health Principles. Let's keep pushing back on this. #ABleg #ABpoli

Our roadside rally is on for today.

Enough Is Enough UCP The UCP is clawing back $200 from our most vulnerable and is forcing them into a work program. Will You Stand And Say No To Cruelty! #Bantheban protest Legislature Steps October 25, 2025 1pm - 3pm bantheban.ca

The $100 'admin' fee is a TAX and a burden on families. Let's stop #DanielleSmith and LaGrange's attack on our universal healthcare system. #AxeTheVaxTax #ABLeg #Abpoli Bring back #PublicHealth in Alberta.

We are having a roadside rally along St.Albert Trail Monday. Signs made and some will be dressed in appropriate Alberta attire. #AxeTheVaxTax #ABpoli

This won’t end at sports. It’s all right there in UCP party policy. (All 35 resolutions passed at convention) Read it! Cis or trans, controlling our bodies IS the point. Wake up Alberta women! We’re all in this together! #abpoli #cdnpoli www.unitedconservative.ca/wp-content/u...
