8/ Governor Kathy Hochul just posted this statement on X.

Smith starts out today hard with some pretty impressive numbers manipulations, claiming that the offer represented the highest raise in over a decade. Completely ignoring that's part of the problem. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

To the people who lent their credibility to this panel: are you having fun yet? It might be time to resign while you can still salvage some of it.

Opinion: What would not have been articulated out loud years ago has become acceptable to say openly. Online influencers like Andrew Tate and shows like Piers Morgan Uncensored have thrived in such a culture. www.hilltimes.com/story/2025/0...

On the eve of a new ministerial order on the book ban, just a throwback to the last time Alberta's Minister of Education issued a discriminatory order; we fought it and won, with some strong language from the Court, calling the plan "myopic" canlii.ca/t/k9l6h#par150 #ableg

Same goes for the U-C-P! issuing regs under the Education Act, to prohibit masks regardless of a corona, measles or polio outbreak in schools Doing what they told the Court they weren't trying to do in CM v. Alberta, canlii.ca/t/jsn4r#par7 Public health under Ed Act? Ultra vires much? #ableg

Alberta's covid vaccine debacle I'm a senior but I want to talk generically about a person (X) for whom my wife is the executor X is in their early 90s X, is on a fixed income and let's assume with no access to a vehicle X has a good relationship with a local, easily accessible pharmacist #abpoli 1/

Since Huscroft J.A. was saucy about social science, pardon me some snark. This is incorrect. The PM is PM until they resign. A PM can choose to test confidence, even w/ fewer seats. The GG doesnt invite the PM to stay on, nor is it convention that the pluarity party governs.

"History is best told as a story of organised crime." - I've always felt this way, that in fact the ascension of societies or peoples was not really progress as much as those willing to betray, lie, or kill overtaking those who felt bound by other norms. Our society as a case in point.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "This party needs to wake up. These guys aren't screwing around... They're assassins when it comes to the way they weaponize grievance and the way they play politics. Enough! What more goddamn evidence do we need? They have rolled back the last half century in real time!"

The ICJ’s climate change Advisory Opinion emphasises the duty of states to cooperate [302] since the climate system is a resource shared by all states. Such a duty should also apply to the sub-units of a federation. Can we develop a doctrinal basis to support such an imp. obligation? #ableg #abpoli

Count on it.

Yet she voted to keep arming Israel

Yes because AIPAC owns Jeffries and can’t own Mamdani. That’s why Kamala lost and zohran won. The United states of Israel makes me sick.

According to a new report 18% of Albertans walk out of emergency rooms without receiving care. This is double the national average of 8.5%. These aren’t just numbers; they are Albertans, suffering in pain & unable to get the help they need. And, how many healthcare ministers?

Folks, Pierre Poilievre’s wife wants you to think about whether you’re banging too many people I wish I was kidding. For this Friday video, we're talking about conservative women's media, tradwives, rising misogyny and yes, somehow, Peter Thiel. Woohoo:

Well. In six years as a Senator, I never did meet PM Trudeau. But tonight at Stampede, I shook hands with a fellow Edmontonian. What did we talk about? Andy’s Valleyview IGA. And that famous mechanical horse. Of course. #Stampede #cdnpoli #yyc #Calgary #Edmonton #yeg

By contrast, "sovereignty" is ambiguous -- and deliberately so, on the part of separatist leaders who are selling a chicken in every pot. Some even promise Albertans could keep their CPP if they leave Canada.

This. Referendums are dumb. Petitions are dumber. Listen to Professor Wesley and let’s focus on saving our representative democracy from big money.

Makes me think that we're heading to a fascist state when it is possible to create an entire new police service in Alberta by way of regulation (ie the executive power of Ms Smith). #abpoli #ableg www.alberta.ca/release.cfm?...

Because there’s not enough corruption at CPS she needed her own Calgary body guards, ice like entity? #ableg

A reminder that only 1 in 5 Albertans support this. www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/prairies_bc/...

The one thing that every Canadian knows - if you are confronted by ICE you don't ever slam on the brakes. You put both hands on the wheel and drive right over ICE. True. North. Strong. Free.
