In a column coming out later this week, I refer to Smith as the Viktor Orbán of Canada.

8/8 Violent extremist ideologies are more active than ever. It is happening here. Richard R. Goode for The Walrus thewalrus.ca/far-right-ex...

We need to report on these people more and to push back - Canadians are better than these far right losers.

In case it wasn’t already clear - cbs is fox now under Bari Weiss

The EPA has removed references about humans causing climate change from its website. No US government website can be trusted for science information.

Peterson is a danger to the public. Smith is a danger to democracy. We need a fucking election (and Peterson needs to f off). #abpoli

Those fuckers 😡 #abpoli

7/7 This is not the doctrine of an ally. Any illusions of a comprehensive partnership need to be buried. The NSS makes brutally clear that shared values and respect for sovereignty are gone. Wesley Wark for The Walrus thewalrus.ca/trumps-terri...

““In doing so, this Bill would disproportionately harm the very communities it purports to protect. We urge the government to reverse course on Bill C-9.”

The UCP is pushing through a coal mining project that no one wants. We'd like to know: who is this project serving? Because it sure isn't serving Albertans.

On the ruling calling the UCP's Bill 14 strategy "the antithesis of the stable, predictable, and ordered society that the rule of law contemplates, and democracy demands." Smith flatly said she knows democracy better than judges. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Smith wants to override the courts. Be ashamed - this is fascist shit. #abpoli

fucking Trump. taking a break from building ballrooms to play at being strongman-potus again. get it through your fat head. Canada is not going to be bullied by you. Canada is not going to be your vassal state. go grow some potash why don't you. that was your last brilliant idea, wasn't it?

Listening to the AB finance minister town hall - he is not answering questions nor being truthful. just propaganda pretending their education finding is adequate, for example. So far no follow up questions given.

To sell it, the UCP must simultaneously acknowledge system failure while avoiding the deeper truth: that through these recent years of accelerated collapse, it held the power, resources, and the obligation to prevent this failure. canadahealthwatch.ca/2025/12/05/a...

EFF has long warned about police use of facial recognition technology. Now we're seeing exactly what we feared: Axon is testing this tech in body-worn cameras. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

“ 'Influenza kills about 450,000 people per year on the planet,' said Dr. Isaac Bogoch. ' It’s especially severe in older Canadians and the youngest Canadians, pregnant women and in people who are immunocompromised, but even healthy young people can get absolutely walloped by the flu.' ”

I’ll be writing and calling the premiers office today. Again. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

This is not a drill. The Trump doctrine has been boldly stated: Reduce Canada to a vassal state. Crush Ukraine. Undermine Europe by promoting racist hate parties. Serve Putin. The plan has been clear as day all along now it is being stated openly. We must resist. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRPI...

Giving ministers the power to exempt pet projects from any law on the books except for the Criminal Code isn’t nation-building. It’s a disaster waiting to happen. The fact that they‘re trying to sneak this through without any explanation is particularly incriminating.

Will AIc tell then that when you don’t provide high quality free healthcare you can’t prevent and predict prematurity. That’s what americans deserve - healthcare they can afford, not more f-ing AI.

Should we be concerned?

This is so fucking stupid. #FireTheUCP #abpoli

This is the work of the extreme right wing and their network: Manning Centre = Stephen Harper = Danielle Smith = Scott Moe = John Rustad = Poilievre = Ezra Levant = Gavin McInnes = Max Bernier = Lauren Southern = Jordan Peterson = John Carpay = ETC Proponents of hate in Canada

“Every infection increases the risk for heart attacks, strokes and heart disease; for new-onset diabetes; for cognitive decline and dementia; for deregulating the immune system; and for reactivating viruses like Epstein-Barr or shingles.”

Fuck google - this is not at all ok. How do we push back? Or let me guess - we can’t! Billionaires and grifters decide and everyone else has no say.

As peace efforts fail to bear fruit, the Russian leader threatens Odesa and Mykolaiv - and warns of wider war on Europe.

Make it fucking stop 🤬 #abpoli

Plenty of useful points in here, but I love the way what primarily comes through is the enthusiam for sealife that shines through from @drandrewthaler.bsky.social www.southernfriedscience.com/what-we-know...

The latest news story I wrote for @abworker.bsky.social

Reporter - If you used the notwithstanding clause top avoid increasing funding, aren't you admitting education is underfunded? Nicolaides - Whoawhoawhoa, I only brought 1 talking point today...uh... we're awesome and the NDP suck! Woooo! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #abed

Elites are bulldozing our life-support systems for short-term profit. Resist!

If you need another reason to despise Harper, he was the one who cut CBC and destroyed our wonderful Children's programming department... The program about Mr. Dress-up last night was very well done. Such a pleasure to watch. Thank-you @cbcradiocanada.bsky.social for inspiring so many children.

Conservatives everywhere: “Let’s get away with whatever grift we can get away with until we get caught. Then backtrack, saying either we apologize or we never knew. Works every time🤷🏼” 🍁🙄🍁

Children’s entertainer Raffi releases new single in response to ‘rise of fascism’

fyi

As we start opening the Recall Advent Calendar, #recallNicolaides Day 1 is already rotten to the core! Time to find out why #RecallThemAllAlberta! #ABpoli #ABleg #Totalrecall

Why is the media consistently saying "energy," when they actually mean "oil and gas"? "Alberta energy deal" rather than "Alberta oil and gas deal" etc. This is obfuscation. It serves to present these agreements as beneficial to all, rather than specifically beneficial to the oil and gas industry.

Surely even Liberal supporters can see the pattern by now: The Alberta & Cdn govts tell anyone who will listen that Alberta/Canada has "the best environmental standards in the world." The reality is that they are not fit for purpose, not implemented, or not enforced. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Take. Her. Down!

Where are our Congressmen?

Because of “fee based income” 🤔

Alberta wake TF up!!! They will use the notwithstanding clause to take away our bodily autonomy.

Why? Seriously, why? We do not need this! Stop pandering to MAGA, Smith, and can you please just fucking focus on giving us public healthcare and education?! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

America, It's Not You, It's...

After you read the Prasad memo, read this.

Tour de force of investigative journalism here. Globe obtained evidence and made connections that Judge Wyant did not. Also, Globe confirmed former Edmonton Police Chief Dale McFee was guest of Sam Mraiche at Oilers game. EPS failed to be forthright with me when I raised this in a previous story. 1

It's even worse when you consider that Canada still provides fossil fuel subsidies (tax breaks etc.), even though #JustinTrudeau promised to eliminate them in his 2015 election campaign. Another campaign promise he just didn't get around to (and #MarkCarney won't) www.cbc.ca/news/politic... #cdnpoli
