NEW: Reporting from Postmedia and newly disclosed briefing materials at today’s special Council meeting outline the scope of the provincial property tax increase. Cities like Chestermere will see increases as high as 32%, making this the largest property tax increase in Southern Alberta’s history.

Important #ForeverCanadian press conference and announcement tomorrow (Thursday) at La Cité Francophone in Edmonton at 10 am. Our Forever Canadian movement is ready to fight for Alberta’s future in Canada. #ableg #cdnpoli

Not one red cent as long as this govt is in power. Not one.

Of course Moroun approached ex-Harper aides..... Harper and his camp are and will always be backstabbing cunts never to be trusted. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Netanyahu’s son relaxes in Miami as US troops sent to die in Operation Fury

Breaking down the budget a bit more... Govt pretends like actually paying doctors to deliver MORE care to MORE ABs = a pay raise... Their "record" announced increases are simply to catch up with population (but not w inflation)! Don't be fooled AB

Agree on the comms.The NDP has so many low hanging fruit to choose from, but the comms team is way too slow and not agile enough to take advantage of almost daily snafus/outrageous policies from the UCP.

Seen in the bad place: Marco Rubio: “That entire regime (Iran) led by radical clerics who don’t make geopolitical decisions. They make decisions on the basis of theology; their view of theology, which is an apocalyptic one.”

Dennis Modry defrauded his aunt and uncle of more than $1 million. Jeffrey Rath has been reprimanded by the Law Society twice in the last year. It's nice to be reminded that not only are Alberta separatist leaders comically incompetent, they're also deeply terrible human beings.

A cartoon from the 1950’s that’s more relevant than ever 💔

Saab wants to build aircraft here. And they are also working on next generation fighters and are offering Canada a chance to participate. They are also in talks with Airbus to build next generation fighters. Airbus builds planes here. The choice is obvious! www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Behind the cowboy hats and grievance about equalization lies something far more serious: foreign influence, backed by the Trump government, aimed to use legitimate frustrations as a crowbar to split Canada and hand our oil, water, and minerals to the USA. raybwilliams.medium.com/the-fifth-co...

Naheed Nenshi needs to "step up or step down," says @maxfawcett.bsky.social. Do you agree or disagree? 👀 FULL: rtrj.info/030326Max 🎧 FULL: rtrj.info/030326 #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #RealTalkRJ youtu.be/s0jdfLVD8bk?...

Danielle Smith from 2022 would agree with @jeromyyyc.bsky.social that Calgary isn't getting a fair deal. "If we're going to rail against equalization at the federal level, then we can't keep doing the same thing to our municipalities..." She was saying many things back then to get elected.

Good morning from Calgary city hall. Council is holding a special meeting this morning in response to the provincial budget, and increase to the education property tax.

‼️MEANWHILE IN ALBERTA‼️ Danielle Smith has launched a full-on attack on the Canada Health Act by passing "Bill 11" to end single-tier healthcare and bring in U.S. private health care. ❓Who is going to fight this Alberta❓ Doug Ford is not far behind her.

Nice to see the Speaker of the house abdicating the role of Congress in exercising its constitutional authority. First in trade and now in war.

That is not what imminent threat means.

Acting like a 12 yearold trash talking his friends playing video games.

There is a global boycott underway against Chat GPT. Open AI is working with the Pentagon and ICE. They have donated $25 million to Trump. They are working for the authoritarians. People have the power to resist and send a message to the toxic tech bros. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

City Council has just approved a Special Meeting to discuss the impacts of the 2026-2027 provincial budget. The province is proposing a $340 increase on Calgary taxpayers, the largest property tax hike in our city's history. Tune in live NOW: pub-calgary.escribemeetings.com/Players/ISIS...

“If [wealthy, powerful people] can get us to accept that the future’s already settled, AI is already here, the end is already here, then we will create that for them. My most daring idea is to refuse.” — @tressiemcphd.bsky.social

Nah. The real debate in America is between people who know Trump is evil and say so, and the people (like Laura!) who know Trump is corrupt and evil and lie about it for personal profit.

It was a solemn day, 21 years ago when four RCMP officers gave their lives in their service to Albertans. Today, my UCP desecrate their memories by demonizing the RCMP and pushing for a provincial police force no one wants. edmontonjournal.com/news/nationa... #abpoli #UCPCorruption #ableg

Maybe Albertans should have elected a leader instead of a lobbyist. edmontonjournal.com/opinion/colu... #JustSayin #abpoli #UCPCorruption #ableg

“Social media disinformation is why Donald Trump is president, and Big Tech has made it clear that they’ll happily continue to lick Trump’s boots as he drives America off a cliff. “There’s no reason for Canada to follow them.”

Danielle Smith and Mickey Amery have spent a lot of time attacking Judges and claiming the appointment of federal judges "is not non-partisan". But it turns out, not only are their complaints not based in reality, but "their" track record is actually worse. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Bernie's new billionaire wealth tax would raise $4.4T from the super-rich over the next decade. That's more than enough to reverse Trump's Medicaid cuts, raise teacher pay, make childcare affordable, and build millions of affordable homes. And guess what? The super-rich will still be super rich.

Why do something everyone wants for free when you can make them do the legwork and grift $25,000 out of them? It makes me wonder if this will be the way of policy going forward. "Oh, you want fully staffed new hospitals? Well, maybe some people could do a referendum about that and/or crowdfund it?"

“So what’s behind Alberta’s fiscal troubles? It turns out that policy choices, not external factors, are largely to blame.” Well blow me down with a feather, would never have guessed that. Thanks, Alberta Next panel member.

Oil prices are up, and Canadian politicians will use them as justification for more pipelines. A closer look reveals a different picture: one where the countries importing fossil fuels have yet another reason to diversify away from them. #cdnpoli #abpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/03/03/o...

X is a major problem (hence the photo) but it’s not just X. There are now as many bots bombarding our posts on Threads, and we’ve seen numerous false narratives and disinformation campaigns on Bluesky as well. The government needs to address this as a general problem, not isolated to one platform.

Some indication of why the Carney government has avoided criticizing any part of the attacks on Iran. #cdnpoli www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03...

Never has an Alberta government spent so much to give you so little. A $9.4B deficit & the UCP still aren’t doing a thing to lower your costs. In fact, they’re charging you more. You deserve better than being forced to pay for Danielle Smith’s pet projects. Better is possible. #abpoli

NEW: The City of Calgary expects work on the Bearspaw feeder main to cost $439M: New pipe: $381M Reinforcements: $40M Slip line in existing pipe: $18M $71M is already approved, and project needs council to approve $367.4M to fully fund it.

When asked if Alberta would offer shelter to people fleeing the unprecedented conflict in the Middle East... Nate Horner said that Alberta wants "economic immigrants who will fulfill the roles we need". #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Matt Jones seemed to acknowledge today that the UCP did NOT follow their established negotiating protocols when announcing the Triage Physicians... And now the first meeting is March 20. So don't expect to see docs in the waiting room anytime soon. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Matt Jones claimed today that no one is trying to blame the AMA for the delay in the Triage Physicians... Bot we had to go all th way back in the archives to... (Checks notes) Yesterday... To fact check that claim. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

JD VANCE: "There's just no way Trump is gonna about this country to get into a multiyear conflict with no end in sight" TRUMP HOURS LATER: "Wars can be fought 'forever,' and very successfully"

Trump told us what he thinks of our soldiers and our efforts in Afghanistan. He can go fuck himself now. If Canada even gives this request a moment's thought, then Canadians need to be marching in the streets.

On day one of the war 165 children were murdered in a terror bombing of a school. At one time such an atrocity would result in widespread condemnation. Not any more. We remain silent at our peril. My latest piece. charlieangus.substack.com/p/world-at-w...

Nearly half your property tax bill goes to Edmonton as a transfer payment. Their take is up 57% in four years. Now they're demanding 21% more, about $339 per household, this year alone. Edmontonians are being asked to pay $154 more. Let’s work together for a fair deal for Calgary. 2/2

Over-taxation and under-representation. Our Edmonton provincial government is pushing the biggest property tax hike in Calgary’s history. 1/2

My strongly held belief is that the rapture isn’t real and people should stop trying to make it happen.

The Alberta Medical Association with a rebuttal to Danielle Smith blaming them for triage doc delays. AMA says they aren't responsible for the delay, claiming confusion amongst govt ministries about processes tied to the TLP positions is the culprit.

Pluralism asks a lot more of our leaders than populism does. It asks them to do the hard work: to negotiate, to build consensus and buy-in, to explain trade-offs honestly, and to accept blame when decisions are unpopular if necessary. open.substack.com/pub/drjaredw...
