Free and fair elections can't be taken for granted, especially when Danielle Smith and the UCP are trying to rig the next election and steal your vote. If you see this truck on the streets in Calgary or Edmonton, take a picture and share it online! youtube.com/shorts/D4Sui...

A powerful piece from Rachel Notley on the UCP’s plans to rig the map for our next election. “It has to stop here. If we allow politicians to rig elections, then we will be giving them carte blanche to do anything they want. No politician should ever hold that power.” 1/2 #abpoli

A 2nd member of the Electoral Boundaries Conmission is calling out the UCP. “When MLAs of any stripe start picking their voters, instead of voters picking their MLAs, we are on a very slippery slope. …this is a real stab in the heart for democracy…grassroots democracy being challenged.” #abpoli

Another voice raising concerns over Alberta's plan to redraw the electoral map, with the Canadian Civil Liberties Association saying the UCP's plan "casts a doubt over the equity and fairness of Alberta’s electoral process."

The independent Boundaries Commission consulted with thousands of Albertans before publishing its report. Ignoring the report is cheating. Ignoring the report is gerrymandering.

On a similar note, a politician as self- interested, destructive & undemocratic as Danielle Smith makes a clear case for having earned their way out of the Premier’s office. #abpoli

“At the end of the day elected representatives should never be the ones setting their own boundaries.” Mayors Knack & Farkas speak out against Danielle Smith & the UCP’s plan to have a committee dominated by UCP MLAs redraw our provincial elections map. #abpoli

“If the govt were looking to... gerrymander districts... this new, hastily designed process undercuts [public consultation] and puts the decisions in the hands of partisan appointees in a way that we have not seen in Canada since the 1940s.” www.nationalobserver.com/2026/04/17/n...

Children. Earning. Their way out. Of Inclusion. This is the populist soul.

Danielle Smith and the UCP are trying to redraw Alberta's electoral map to rig the next election. Here's what every Albertan needs to understand about their Trump-inspired playbook. 🧵⏬

The UCP are setting themselves up to rig our elections map so they can steal the next election. I explain how. This is a direct attack on your right to free and fair elections. So it’s time to get loud. 1/2 #abpoli

“Really bad for democracy.”—Calgary law prof Shaun Fluker on UCP setting aside the commission report & creating a special select MLA committee He warns once a majority gov’t puts elected officials on the committee, “you’re entering the drain of gerrymandering.” podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/e...

Lunty is suggesting that Justice Miller recommended redoing everything. As opposed to this: For all the reasons stated herein, the majority recommends the adoption of the majority report in its totality.

The UCP said they would respect the findings of the independent Boundaries Commission ... until they didn't like the results. Now, they're ignoring the experts, who consulted with thousands of Albertans, to push through a map that would steal your vote and rig the election.

Danielle Smith and the UCP hate accountability So much so, they’re setting themselves up to rig our next election. Every Albertan needs to stand up and tell them NO. Premier Smith: 780-427-2251 [email protected] Minister of Justice: 780-427-2711 [email protected] #abpoli

There is a reason that we do not have MLAs decide on electoral boundaries. Tossing out the Electoral Boundaries Commission and replacing it with a UCP-dominated committee is not just a bad idea. It is really bad for democracy. Ask the US, ask Hungary. This is not normal!

They are literally making it up as they go along. When they don't like the outcome, the Smith government rigs the process. It's a worrisome pattern for those who care about procedural fairness and institutional forebearance. You know, real conservatives.

First, their health minister used confidential info to intimidate a critic. Then another accessed a recall proponent's voting records. Now another wants to know what Albertans are reading in public libraries. When will UCP libertarians stand up? www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art...

If the UCP goes forward with this plan to gerrymander Alberta's electoral boundaries, Albertans of all partisan persuasions will be called upon to push back. And hard. drjaredwesley.substack.com/p/drawing-th...

It’s official. The UCP are going all in on rigging the next election. It’s unprecedented and unacceptable. MLAs should have no part in drawing the boundaries for the seats they run to represent. We’ll have much more to say n the days to come because, Alberta, we need to fight back. #abpoli

Today, Danielle Smith and the UCP caucus unveiled plans to rig the next election: A new motion indicates the UCP's plans to manipulate the election maps for the next election in their favour, and without any requirement to consult the public. This has never been done in Canadian history. /1

Danielle Smith wants to do for Lethbridge what’s she’s done for healthcare… …create 4x the bureaucracy & make it 4x harder for them to get anything done. All because she’s desperate to hold on to power. Don’t let the UCP cheat in the next election. Graphic: @samirkayande.bsky.social #abpoli

“Albertans feel every cent when they fill up,” said @naheednenshi.bsky.social “Families and business owners are doing the math at the pump and wondering what they’re going to cut next. Dropping the provincial gas tax is one clear, practical way the government can help today.”

Albertans need relief at the pumps. It's why we're calling on the government to remove the provincial gas tax. That’s 13 cents per litre, or $300+ a year for the average family. This simple measure would provide relief for businesses, in agriculture, truckers, and anyone who commutes by car.

And hey, the Canadian Taxpayers Federation agrees with the Alberta NDP, also calling for Premier Smith to pause the provincial fuel tax

Alberta's NDP are calling for the UCP to temporarily remove the 13-cents-per-litre provincial gas tax, suggetsing it will save the average family $300 per year.

With gas prices soaring, we’re calling on Danielle Smith and the UCP to pause the provincial fuel tax and save you up to $300/year. The federal government is pausing theirs. But so far, the UCP dont seem to care. What do you think? #abpoli

The UCP are setting themselves up to rig the map for our next provincial election. We can’t let that happen. Watch, listen and write the Premier and Justice Minister. [email protected] [email protected] youtu.be/_gDXVD2DYZU?... #abpoli

An independent commission did its job and delivered fair electoral maps. But Danielle Smith and the UCP want to ignore them and redraw the map. They think they need to cheat to win. The government should accept those maps, without question. Don’t let them take your vote and your voice.

What Alberta needs right now is stability.

Alberta NDP leader Naheed Nenshi calls for Justice Minister Micky Amery to be fired following latest Globe and Mail article chronicling latest twist in ongoing Sam Mraiche story.

Breaking news in the Globe & Mail today - it appears Justice Minister Mickey Amery may have changed elections law to help with friend and relative Sam Mraiche. It seems the UCP’s corruption doesn’t end. Let’s make sure their time in government does. #ableg

Danielle Smith’s UCP may be the most corrupt government we’ve ever had. No sense of shame as they repeatedly use their power & your money to benefit themselves & their friends. We need a full public inquiry, TODAY. #abpoli

Political experts across Alberta are warning that Danielle Smith and the UCP may try to rig our next provincial election. I explain how. youtu.be/WZuZiwqjf3Y?... #abpoli

Alberta’s NDP has a new energy policy, but what does that mean for Albertans?
 @naheednenshi.bsky.social sat down with Rob Breakenridge to answer that question directly and to talk about how our caucus is fighting back on the issues Albertans care about most - Tune in 🔽 youtu.be/3oB8P8OnoUM?...

My latest on the redistricting process in Alberta. open.substack.com/pub/drjaredw...

The UCP claim they support direct democracy but they seem to be positioning themselves to interfere in the most direct democracy of all - the next provincial election. We can’t let that happen. #abpoli

Gerrymander. An American term for when a gov’t deliberately redraws electoral district boundaries to give themselves an unfair advantage in an election. Dr. Wesley warns the UCP seem to be eying trying it here to cheat their way into winning the next election. We can’t let that happen. #abpoli

MLA Jason Stephan just wrote an op-ed supporting separatism. He says Canada is hopelessly broken. That flies in the face of Danielle Smith’s claim she’s paved the way for a separatist referendum because to prove Canada can be fixed. So why is he still her Parliamentary Secretary? #abpoli

The UCP love to posture about public safety & accuse others of wanting to defund police. The fact is, the UCP are the only government that have actually stripped funding from police across Alberta. Minister Mike Ellis tried to lie about it. I set him straight. #abpoli

The UCP is opening the door to election rigging, and Albertans should be outraged. Effective representation is a constitutional right. Anything short of implementing the majority report in its entirety is election rigging. We won't let them cheat to win.

The UCP promised they wouldn’t raise taxes but their new budget does. So you pay more while they enjoy higher salaries, more $ for their rent & trips around the world. All because they blew through near-record resource revenues. Wasted a boom during a boom. youtu.be/Sn5rxLnE1BE?... #abpoli

Nenshi said he thought the change of heart was a result of "political pressure" being put on the commission members by the UCP. "The fact that the UCP-appointed chair of the commission felt the need to write that he thought it was unconstitutional and wrong tells you what you need to know."

When the Premier and the UCP create chaos, we're the ones left paying for it. It’s time to show Albertans, and the rest of the country, what our energy sector can look like under strong, steady, competent leadership. Here's our plan for Alberta's energy future ⬇️ www.albertandp.ca/building-alb...
