NEW POST: Danielle Smith is no separatist; she's much, much worse emmettmacfarlane.substack.com/p/danielle-s...

THIS by @maxfawcett.bsky.social is a must-read and calls out so much of what I think is fundamentally driving federal policy right now and helps make sense of moves Carney has made. www.nationalobserver.com/2025/12/19/o...

Keeping up with the UCP government's democratic transgressions can be difficult. But not impossible. Here’s a running list since Danielle Smith became premier. 🧵👇

Welp.

Motherfucking wind farms…

Excellent article by Blake.

This is honestly too much. The Premier talking about 135M HC dollars just wasted and acting like she has NOTHING to do with why we are here. Everything she and her govt has done has brought us to this point, a 🧵to recap: buff.ly/HuESfWk 1/10

"While Calgarians face real challenges—rising costs, housing strain, and crumbling infrastructure—Danielle Smith is busy talking about banning books. Calgary needs leadership that focuses on solutions, not sideshows" - @briantyyc.bsky.social www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

It's the richest industry in the history of the world, most of the profit goes to its majority foreign owners & it's literally burning the world down. No responsible leader should be giving them one thin dime ever again. If anything they need to pay for their mess #cdnpoli thetyee.ca/Analysis/202...

The UCP is facing 8 investigations into corruption, plus no fewer than 3 major public sector union strikes (all of their own making). The affordability crisis looms, as does a trade war with the US. Wildfires & measles are raging. And the premier chose now to clear a path for a separation vote.

Oh wow, Alberta Information and Privacy Commissioner has issued a report finding the Alberta government is broadly not complying with freedom of information laws

Can Danielle Smith of this week arrange a chat with Danielle Smith of… A whole six months ago? #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Alberta First Nations issue cease and desist order against Danielle Smith's attempt to create a national unity crisis. Alberta is on treaty lands. Those treaties were signed 30 years before Alberta became a province.

I went back on @thebulwark.com to break down where things are at on the campaign trail. you will be SHOCKED. youtu.be/dX8hVzz10sw?...

China really upping their trolling game since the tariffs.

Grift. After pouring $154 million in public funding to pay investors to build the new surgical spaces while public operating rooms are sitting idle (public assets that Albertans have already paid for), the ASI only added 16,493 of the least-complex procedures edmontonjournal.com/opinion/colu...

SCOOP: Health Minister Adriana LaGrange dismissed the AHS board the same day the organization was scheduled to receive a report examining whether some of its contracts were subject to "improper activity," according to docs. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber... w @alannasmith.bsky.social

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Catching up on my homework, I finally had the chance to review Mentzelopoulos's statement of claim re the Alberta healthcare scandal. It really is a wide-ranging series of accusations. Here are my takeaways. 🧵https://www.scribd.com/document/827797277/Statement-of-Claim-Mentzelopoulos

Albertans deserved an honest post-pandemic review. Instead, they got a report littered with contrarian, anti-science talking points that have been debunked, by @bradenmannsyyc.bsky.social @antibioticdoc.bsky.social www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber... @theglobeandmail.com #COVID19 #infodemic

Gary Mason on Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's approach to diplomacy. "Again, the fact that this is how Ms. Smith decided to respond to arguably the greatest potential attack on our economy in modern history is utterly contemptible." www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...

Just an FYI, if you are making a martini but have no toothpicks for the olives, just snap a piece of dried spaghetti or spaghettini in half. They work great and stay firm immersed in cold gin.

My latest column... It should be obvious by now, no politician ever lost votes by attacking photo radar, and no columnist ever lost readers by writing about it. edmontonjournal.com/opinion/colu... #yeg #yegcc

How much did Albertans pay for a report to justify Smith's vision for a grand central station in Calgary and derail the green line while ignoring the costs of changing plans? Glad you asked. $2,468,949.00 #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

I do not have a good feeling about Harper being chair of AIMCO. If the UCP can’t get their hands on CPP money they will settle on full control of AIMCO and use other people’s pension money to promote their pet projects that couldn’t get other funding.
