Alberta municipalities are being forced to slash their budgets because of $254 million in unpaid taxes by oil & gas companies. And all Albertans are facing increased taxes as oil & gas companies’ costs are shifted to the public. For more info visit CleanUpYourMess.ca #abpoli

Hey, Albertans. Australians get three hours of FREE electricity every day, because their country generates so much solar power. Why can't we have that? Oh, right. Because our provincial government does everything it can to block renewable energy and enrich oil & gas billionaires. #abpoli #ableg

Pretty sure that if the Alberta government were *actually* concerned about shielding kids from graphic images, they'd go after the internet, not libraries. Bill 28 isn't about protecting children, it's about distracting us from the government's abysmal performance. #abpoli #ableg

Today’s agreement-in-principle Alberta is an important step forward. After months of regulatory gridlock, this agreement will deliver certainty for companies, which will unlock investment and mean emissions begin to be reduced. Our full reaction ⬇️ buff.ly/iUTK8Jy

No CO₂ Pipelines Alberta is fighting back against this development, and will be holding a series of town halls across rural and urban Alberta over the coming months to lead community resistance. Find out more at noco2pipelines.ca/ 3/3🧵 #ableg #abpoli

This project includes a CO₂ pipeline run through regular Albertans’ backyards, with massive safety and economic risks. CCUS projects by the o&g industry are a classic greenwashing tactic, and a leaking or ruptured CO₂ pipeline can harm people and animals within a 20 km “hazard zone.” 2/3🧵

The newly-renamed Oil Sands Alliance is planning to construct a massive, taxpayer-funded, multi-billion dollar Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS) project across northeast Alberta as part of the Alberta-Canada Memorandum of Understanding. 1/3 🧵

“I have one question for the prime minister,” said farmer Penny Fox, a resident of St. Paul County and another founder of the coalition. “If you wouldn’t live next to this pipeline, why should we?” #abpoli #ableg

The Alberta government's Mature Asset Strategy is a blueprint for shifting the burden of cleaning up oil wells and pipelines from corporations to taxpayers like you and me. Find out how you can help make polluters pay to clean up their messes: albertatalks.ca/cuym-launch/

Read this.👇🏻The industry has been underestimating emissions by nearly 2x. The federal government CANNOT download emission reduction data or efforts to the provinces. Full stop! 🛑 Direct measurements are the only way forward. The industry/provinces CANNOT be trusted, PM @mark-carney.bsky.social

Everything we need to do to stop climate breakdown, we also need to do for national security. Energy saving, more renewables, more electricity storage and interconnectors, electrification of transport, heating, cooking and industrial processes, plant-based diets. We win on all fronts.

Clever. These are popping up all across the USA.

"Laws that aren't enforced are meaningless." Mark Dorin succinctly explains the severe problems with oil and gas wells on Albertans' lands. #ableg #abpoli

Alberta oilmen used to refuse oil-sands folks entry to the Calgary Petroleum Club. How silly, we say in hindsight--while the AB Gov't refuses wind-energy producers equal status today. O&G is not sacred. The debt-crippled AB gov't should stop its ridiculous campaign against wind energy.

Ordinary Albertans pay their rent and pay their taxes. Shouldn't oil companies have to do the same? #abpoli #ableg

Know what *doesn't* cause cancer? Solar and wind energy. The Chief of Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation acknowledged that “the rates of all cancers combined in the Fort Chipewyan area were statistically significantly higher than those in the rest of Alberta." #abpoli www.nytimes.com/2026/03/10/h...

Fellow Albertans: WATCH THIS! We can have thousands of good jobs here in the province if we make polluters pay to clean up their messes. Regular Albertans pay their taxes, pay their rents, and don't pollute: why shouldn't oil and gas companies do the same? #ableg #abpol

Workers can’t transition to a promise or an idea — the jobs need to be waiting. Fortunately, across Alberta, tens of thousands of jobs *are* waiting if only we force oil and gas companies to clean up the mess they’ve made. It's time for a reclamation boom. youtube.com/shorts/1hTwz...

“Canadians understand that energy security and national security are closely linked,” says Sierra Club's Conor Curtis. Many "also consider renewable energy as key to building Canada’s stability and resilience and want our governments to prioritize renewable energy growth.” SURVEY.

Albertans: your premier is lying to you.

"In the 12 months to April 2025 Cuba’s imports of Chinese solar panels grew by a factor of 34, faster than anywhere else in the world. The island has gone from having almost no solar power a few years ago to levels which help it cope with Mr Trump’s embargo." From the Economist.

"While the world races toward clean energy, Alberta pursues pipelines to markets that are rapidly transitioning away from fossil fuels. Our province is shunning the largest investment trend on the planet to appease oil and gas companies." #abpoli #ableg edmontonjournal.com/opinion/colu...

For #peace and #forourkids let’s stop burning fossil fuels 🙏🏼 🥵

"We will not sit back and watch as this government lays out the welcome mat for making Alberta the 51st State in breach of our Treaties." Mikisew Cree First Nation has filed a lawsuit for Danielle Smith’s flagrant disregard for Treaties. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Rakhi for Premier! 🧡 #abpoli #ableg

What smarter investment could Albertans make that to educate the children who live here? Why would we want to grow a permanent underclass of illiterate, innumerate youth? Our economy needs educated workers - not children cut off from hope.

I'm grateful to Rakhi Pancholi for not mincing words. #abpoli
