Which party was in power when equalization was renegotiated with Quebec?!? The CPC under Stephen Harper, Kenney, Poilievre et al. The questions AB Cons FAIL to ask is why didn’t they do something, anything for Alberta then. Because they don’t have to. AB voters never vote in their best interest.

That's my whole thing with the ndp the centrism isn't working

They won in 2015 on a platform that promoted renewables, promised specific healthcare & education funding, and all kinds of progressive policies. They've completely backtracked & their numbers continue to nosedive. Those high-paid party consultants are certainly doing a great job!

whenever I think of that jacka$$, all I see is this... (which I find kind of terrifying)

he is SUCH an a$$hole. Sold out Albertans removing the cap on power charges in exchange for an Atco board seat, jammed Danielle in there so he could go on to greener pasture (selling out AB'ns a 2nd time), now he wants back in like a conquering hero?

The very beginning. I laugh @ Jason Kenney out there denouncing Smith but that jackass courted those idiots. He may be a so called federalist but his actions have consequences. He sought out their vote. The disconnect between what is said & done is deafening.

What a silly Op Ed in @theglobeandmail.com! If we want to be concerned about Chinese EVs as a security threat, shouldn't we also be concerned about Teslas? For the exact same reason. Connection to a hostile state... www.theglobeandmail.com/business/com...

The FACT that conservatives in Alberta can’t or won’t recognize the UCP as a traitorous far right party with the expressed intention of destroying the province & our country is perplexing to me. The UCP is not conservative, the CPC is not conservative. Both parties have been hijacked by extremists.

last time I tried to call our Justice Minister Mickey Amery's office, I had to go through a robot forcing me to say my name just to be able to leave a voicemail. haven't given him a call in a month or so. i should call again

I actually got through this morning and asked about their phones. Rather than apologize, Stephane says, “they were there all day”. Such poor customer skills. I should have taped their voice messages from yesterday. #Alberta

Just shitty.

IMO, the ABNDP won in 2015 because the conservative vote was split between the Wildrose Party and the Progressive Conservatives The UCP was specifically created to stop that happening again Now the Wildrose extremists have taken over the UCP franken party and here we are - Screwed

To skip the line, decline to resign, and vote no to the nine, order your mail-in ballot today: specialballot.elections.ab.ca/(S(ok313kmry...

Given that long waits prompt would-be voters to leave the lines (that's part of the UCP's strategy for urban areas), conventional get-out-the-vote strategies fall short if they don't encourage people to use advance polls and mail-in ballots. +

This is very important advice. We’ve already ordered ours. Saves me being insulted by the racists they often employ at the polling stations in #Lethbridge, who love to stare at us like they’ve never seen interracial people in their lives 🤣 #Alberta

I am encouraged by Avi as opposed to Jagmeet. It is so ironic that an anti-worker party brands itself as a worker party, and some workers fall for it.

Turnout will be crucial in this October's referendums. Because of the number of ballots and the UCP's reforms, we can anticipate waiting in line for hours longer than usual. Mail-in voting is one solution. + reddeeradvocate.com/2026/07/20/e...

James Lovelock is one of the greatest climate scientists that ever lived. We're about find out how on point his statements from over 18 years ago were.

An ICE officer is trained for 71 days. It takes 150 days to become a certified pet stylist at Petco. One grooms dogs… the other carry’s guns. This is what’s wrong with our country.

So it seems increasingly likely that Taylor Farms is responsible for the diarrhea outbreak in the country, BUT they got the FDA to step in and claim it was a “false positive” after a bunch of White House meetings and donations. We’ll probably never know, but it tracks with how these people operate.

NO 👇 LIES DETECTED, HUNTER...

Go to Otterlyteed and press shop. It’ll take you to their Etsy shop. This is an Edmonton based shop. I encourage all Canadians to pick one up and stand with those in Alberta fighting the Smith/UCP tyrants. Many thanks to @glendaaus.bsky.social who originally shared the site! 😊 otterlyteed.ca

So was Carney misleading Canadians to try and take the heat off, or was he misled by his officials when he made wrong statements about the agreement? Either way, this is Not Good.

Americans’ attitudes toward data centers have grown increasingly sour in the past six months, our new poll found. 41% of Americans would oppose a data center being built within three miles of where they live, up from 28% in the January survey. 🔗 politi.co/4pxJIyQ

At 23, Kadeena Cox suffered a stroke and was later diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. She went on to become a Paralympic champion in both athletics and cycling, becoming the first British Paralympian in 32 years to win gold medals in two different sports at the same Games. #SheShed #ViVaHerAlliance

It's not popular to say on this platform but I think the federal NDP have lost their way They used to be the workers' party, people like me supported that Sadly, the conservatives are filling the void that's left, even though the cons don't give a sh*t about us

Last weekend our daughter sold at Anime in Winnipeg. Winnipeg has been waiting so long for this, they spent their money, and her normal sale is 50$, the people where buying 100s and asking her to sign posters 🥰 She said the Winnipeg folk were some of the nicest she’s met. Edmonton coming up.

Hi Bluesky. I’m officially asking my network for help. It’s been a tough 10 months on the job market, and I am actively seeking policy and policy-adjacent roles in agricultural emissions, greenhouse gas mitigation, air quality, and biotechnology regulation. 🧵

Reminds me of the continual crap spewing from Danielle Smith. It’s all so bad and so wrong and just never ends. The two of them are exhausting.

I was hoping they would change their name and cease to be under the federal NDP's wing I think Smith kiboshed that when she passed a law limiting what words can be used as a party name Between that and Smith's gerrymandering I think we're screwed

Me too. I understand the verbiage, that in Alberta they have to be centrist and pro expansion of fossil fuels to win. But they still aren't winning.

She is about as popular as Ford! Two Conservative losers!

It would be great if the Progressive Tory party could make some inroads. Also if the name of Alberta's leading centrist party was not NDP.

I know people want to show up and be seen but our votes count more than the optics of standing in a line to vote. Oct 19th could easily be winter on top of the reality that the UCP is going to limit polling places and force the voting in person to be a long, painful process to discourage us.

Meta is pure evil, in case this somehow hasn’t occurred to you yet

She likes to party with the nasty magas so yeah. With her, we have to watch what she does, and not what she says cause she is 2 faced, lying back stabbing b!tch. The nastiest I've seen. bsky.app/profile/glen...

Indeed. 🇨🇦

Scoop! After years of the UCP making it out that there was o specific budget for "Your Province, Your Premier", it turns out that Albertans are paying A LOT! Like almost $10,000 a month a LOT! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli open.substack.com/pub/thebreak...

Holly Molly...most conservate polling company "Angus Reed" is showing Queen Dani has dropped in the polls.... 🤞her days are numbered.

Our hearts break for May Pollard, her family, the trans community of Idaho, and trans youth everywhere denied the freedom to be themselves. We'll never stop fighting for the future every trans kid deserves.

Not very good #DanielleSmith numbers. Keep calling her office (if they ever answer) or email and remind them that 56% don’t want her, nobody trusts her to do the right thing. She’s a snake #Alberta Pretty conservative pollsters.

Andy Beshear's office: 502-564-2611 Okay folks, please call Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear (who's a Democrat) and let him know your feelings regarding finding out the status of Mitch McConnell. It's Beshear's decision on where to proceed from here (and there are tight deadlines coming). 👇

If I were canvassing, I would be walking around with a QR code that points Albertans to this website to request a mail-in ballot.

My sincere condolences to Mr. Dale‘s family. Canadians try to help our neighbours to the south, and their President stabs us in the back. #Sheshed cheknews.ca/procession-h...

#ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited I was repulsed by this sack of garbage back in the 80’s. The fact that his grifting azz is sitting in our WH is equally repulsive and disgusting. No compassion or integrity, a thug who doesn’t give a damn about America. It’s all about his ego. Ugly inside and out.

I’m incredibly ashamed & horrified at the abomination’s behavior. We have always loved❤️our Canadian neighbors!🇨🇦 Every day is worse than the previous with him squatting in what’s left of the White House. November can’t get here soon enough.

Honestly, I understand we have to say something but Trump’s latest verbal diarrhea doesn’t deserve a response.
