Nice day on campus at UNBC.

Current and former senior AHS officials told me that LaGrange simply refuses to consider evidence, even when told cancer surgeries and children's organ transplant surgeries were being delayed. thetyee.ca/News/2025/11...

Alberta enacts a U.S.-style two-tier health care system By playing to corporate and surgeon greed, Alberta is undermining the entire Canada Health Act and our public system #abpoli #cdnpoli www.policyalternatives.ca/news-researc...

Just called the Premier’s office and left a message about her systematic dismantling of services and unprofessional and shameful words to First Nations, and suggested she take her own advice and “check herself.” Call if you have a few minutes. #ableg #abpoli www.alberta.ca/premier-cont...

You know what else you can get for $100?! 3.44 months of Equifax Complete(TM) Protection for an individual (assuming you qualify for the first 30 days discount)… since you know, that other thing that happened that the UCP has decided to ignore. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

The fact that Danielle Smith expects you and me to apply for $100, while Sam Mraiche got more than $600 million in sole source contracts, is both despicable and insulting. Not only is $100 a pathetic amount of money, but it demonstrates (again) that she has no respect for your time. #ableg #abpoli

It’s officially summer in Alberta when you get the shit scared out of you by the tornado alert sound while you’re driving 😎

Thank you @albertaviews.bsky.social for noting "I'll Get Right On It" in the June issue! It means a lot to keep this important conversation about workers and climate at the forefront. #ReadAlberta #CanLit #Poetry #ClimateChange #Workers @fernpub.bsky.social Link: albertaviews.ca/ill-get-righ...

There is a massive protest planned today at Riley Park in Calgary to fight back against the UCP's damaging & dangerous policies in Alberta. Our #Alberta NDP team & I will be there. We hope you can make it! Please spread the word! See you there! #abpoli #ableg #Calgary #yyc
