Enough is enough, Premier. Albertans see right through these distractions. Cut the bullshit. Call the election. youtube.com/shorts/RnRaw...

Let’s clear up a common misconception: Alberta doesn’t “pay into” equalization. No province does. It’s a federal program funded by federal taxes collected from individuals and businesses paying the same tax rate across the country. albertaviews.ca/equalization... #ABpoli #ABleg #CdnPoli

Max nails it. Dani cares about Dani: But as Smith has made clear time and time again, she doesn’t care about what’s best for Canada. Instead, she seems almost pathologically attuned to the needs of the separatists in her party, and has consistently bent over backwards to avoid attracting their ire.

My latest: because one national unity crisis wasn't enough, Danielle Smith has decided to provoke another one —all, of course, in the name of placating the separatists that run her party. www.nationalobserver.com/2026/02/20/o...

Danielle Smith announces a raft of referenda, seemingly designed to advance the UCP’s separatist agenda. albertapolitics.ca/2026/02/dani...

My latest: Alberta's separatist leaders keep using Norway as an example of why an independent Alberta would work. Let's put that to the test, shall we? #cdnpoli #abpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/02/19/o...

The purpose of Alberta’s Health Statutes Amendment Act is to destroy public health care as we know it. Not just in Alberta, but throughout Canada, by legislating two-tier health care. @djclimenhaga.bsky.social writes. #abpoli

Four health ministers. Four agencies. No one is clearly in charge. We’re calling for: ✔️ A State of Emergency in ERs ✔️ A central command for accountability ✔️ An emergency debate in the legislature Add your name today: 👉 AlbertaHealthCrisis.ca

We are once again calling on UCP MLAs to sign a straightforward pledge to denounce separatism. As of Friday morning, all 38 of Alberta’s New Democrat MLAs have signed this pledge, and not a single UCP or Independent MLA has, including Premier Smith. (1/5)

Danielle Smith and the UCP keep using the notwithstanding clause to strip Albertans of their rights. This is an abuse of power. Every Albertan is at risk. First teachers, now parents and children. Who's next? www.albertandp.ca/protect-your...

Albertans paid the price for the UCP’s $125 million dollar political experiment with public health care. Wait times grew, errors increased, and patients suffered from waiting too long for routine appointments and delaying cancer treatment. youtube.com/shorts/vRrj3...

Alberta moves to make quackery great again while protecting egregiously unprofessional behaviour. albertapolitics.ca/2025/11/albe...

Peter Lougheed was one of the key drivers behind the inclusion of the Notwithstanding Clause in our Charter. He'd be horrified by how — and how often — Conservative premiers like Danielle Smith are using it today. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2025/11/20/o...

What this government is doing is wrong, and people are hurting. To every trans young person and every family feeling targeted right now: you are seen, you are valued, and you belong in Alberta. We will keep fighting for your dignity, your safety, and your future. youtu.be/WgE5dmVa6AQ

A quote from former Alberta premier Ralph Klein I hadn't come across before (in a column @senatorpaulasimons.bsky.social wrote in 2024). albertaviews.ca/stripping-aw...

I wrote this two years ago. Felt inspired to post it again today. Tomorrow, it may be more relevant than ever. #ableg #abpoli #TransRightsAreHumanRights #cdnpoli #Alberta @albertaviews.bsky.social

“The Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA) strongly condemns the Alberta government’s introduction of legislation invoking the notwithstanding clause to shield three laws that directly threaten the rights of trans and gender-diverse people in the province.” ccla.org/press-releas...

It’s worth remembering that the UCP aren’t just robbing Albertans of their charter rights… Amery openly conceded that these laws also violate the Alberta Human Rights Act and the Alberta Bill of Rights. That the UCP just rewrote. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Opinion: Privacy violated, equity eroded, autonomy revoked calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu...

Everything we’ve heard indicates the UCP is about to override the Charter of Rights and Freedoms for the first time in Alberta’s history. Which of our rights will Danielle Smith come after next? youtube.com/shorts/UEVW3...

OMG! It's almost like they're yelling "squirrel" to distract from all the other disasters they've inflicted on Albertans.

Forcing teachers back to school without addressing any of their concerns is the biggest abuse of democratic rights in Alberta’s history. Alberta’s New Democrats stand with teachers and unequivocally condemn this attack on public education, on workers and their unions, and democracy itself. /1

After the UCP increased co-payments by 40% on seniors’ drug plans, this leaked cabinet document reveals that Danielle Smith has secret plans to charge Albertans hundreds of millions more for their prescription drugs. Read more: www.albertandpcaucus.ca/news/post/uc...

Danielle Smith often calls herself the most 'freedom-loving' politician in Canada, yet she's repeatedly infringed on your fundamental human rights. Her actions are simply cruel, wrong, and politically motivated. youtu.be/QSt_msI0ayo

For the first time in Alberta history, Danielle Smith will use the notwithstanding clause preemptively to shield her bills targeting vulnerable trans children from legal scrutiny. Her actions are simply cruel and wrong. Read my full statement below:

The first time an Alberta government invoked the notwithstanding clause, public outrage forced a reversal in less than 24 hours. I wish to God Albertans would show the same moral fury now, when school children are outed & bullied by the government that is supposed to protect them. #ableg #abpoli

We once had the best public education in the world, a reliable healthcare system, and a thriving economy. But under the UCP, we've all but lost our advantage. It doesn't have to be this way. With Alberta's New Democrats, better is possible. youtube.com/shorts/KGrLP...

Once again, the UCP's attempts to distract from their horrific record have backfired. Their own incompetence and inability to manage complex files have led to wasted time, wasted money, and unneeded stress. Albertans deserve better. Read my full statement on their book ban 'pause' ⬇️

Braid: Teachers, government trade barbs as Smith fumes over school board book bans

Premier Smith is blaming immigrants for government failures. The UCP launched "Alberta is Calling” yet, ignored services like housing, healthcare,& education They’re dividing Albertans by blaming newcomers. The problem is bad leadership, not newcomers.

Alberta's provincial government punching down - again - to distract from the chaos they are causing everywhere #yycbike www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Cellphone use while driving is so normalized that drivers don't even hide it. With driver mode & hands free, there's no excuse but enforcement is non-existent & our elected 'leaders' would sooner pick on people using active mobilty than address these dangerous behaviours. h/t @tomflood.bsky.social

“[Danielle Smith] clearly isn’t listening to the average Albertan, although she is pretending to. How many more millions of dollars will she waste, chasing after appearances?” We’re all wondering the same thing. www.rmoutlook.com/vox-populi/l...
