Pierre Poilievre just realized that without Alberta, the CPC would never win another federal election ever again. #ABPoli #ABleg #CanPoli www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

The Premier of AB wants to remain a talkshow host rather than act like the leader of our province. 1/5

Alberta's political pay ladder, 2026: Premier — $227K Cabinet Minister — $222K Non-Cabinet MLA — $158K Average Alberta worker — $71K

The Albertans who are/were so concerned about election integrity that they got rid of vote tabulators and are having a referendum on voter photo ID, seem much less concerned about the breach of the voters list.

"We simply have to operate under the assumption that basically anyone in the province, no matter how unhinged, may now have nearly universal access to the personal information of everybody who lives here, and that there’s not a damn thing any of us can do about it."

Govt sold Bill 11 as an amazing idea because shadow bureaucrats (the legions of consultants the UCP govt pays) told them it is a good idea. Govt told ABs "It works in Sweden"... but NOTHING we have here will look like what Sweden has.🧵 1/7

Everyone in the picture is startled, scared except Trump. But he is looking at Melania. Why? I think he's looking to see her expression of fear. Because that is what a predator gets off on. Control, fear, power and here he has all three. #uspoli #trump #shooting

Here is a gift article worth reading. It reflects the best of America at a time where we see too much of the worst. wapo.st/4mT7GmS

Measles Is Back. What Comes Next Will Be Worse. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/25/o... “When it surges like this, it signals that our vaccination programs are starting to fail, and that other diseases won’t be far behind.” Dark Age 2.0.

I hear Elephants are pretty effective too and we could save on bullets.

Separatists think because they don't see any visible counter to their narrative that their stance is the one most people support. I see more and more people flying just the Alberta flag. That's what their neighbours see and it influences them. Probably makes them afraid to say anything.

I like the idea of sporting a Canadian flag on homes and cars. I was also thinking of getting a maple 🍁 tattoo! Then the separatists can deport me. I was thinking of becoming a refugee on Vancouver Island.

On Tuesday, Alberta's Minister of Mental Health and Addiction Rick Wilson told the Alberta legislature that he personally watched someone die in a supervised consumption site (SCS). This statement is demonstrably false and constitutes disinformation. #ableg

Take my money 💰.

I'm waiting for chemo treatment the other day and I overheard a daughter telling her Mom how f**cked it was for the Mom to be waiting for her chemo to be prepared. That the Cancer Clinic should change the pharmacy they deal with. No clue that chemo is not available from the local pharmacy.

“The process would be overseen by a UCP-led committee of MLAs and would see the number of MLAs grow by four, up to 91, with no public hearings.” Read that again: UCP-led committee. No public hearings. Ripping up the map to rig the election. edmontonjournal.com/news/local-n...

I totally agree 💯!

A closure of the Strait of Hormuz is a potential global flash point. What happens when a US Navy ship halts a Chinese flagged oil tanker? Predictions?

I make a real effort to not stray into hyperbole when I write about Alberta politics, but I don’t believe it is an exaggeration to describe the minority report as gerrymandering. daveberta.substack.com/p/the-good-t...

In light of the conversation about how hard it is to promote your own book: Post a link to buy your book here and I’ll boost it cause you destroyed yourself to get it done, your publisher won’t help you sell it, and you deserve cheers and admiration for your accomplishment.

Here's my prediction. Trump is about to do something stupid. (Okay, not a stretch) But he's cornered and he's going to go all in. In the hope of saving face.

"why your protest aesthetics should utilize the most median established sentiment and visual language"

Coal billionaires may have deep pockets, but they don’t have thousands of Albertans who love these mountains and refuse to be pushed around. When we stand together, we win. Chip in $50 and help keep this movement strong. #waternotcoal #coalpetition #alberta #grassymountain

OMG. Has the kakistocracy infected the military too? Paul Krugman makes an argument. youtu.be/QnF3N1az8Gs?...

I do believe I'll be having the honor of taking Sally. That's a big honor. Taking Sally in some form. I think I can do anything I want with her, if you want to know the truth. An insight into the mind of a Rapist.

Your provincial property tax is going up 20% to pay for $16,000 bottles of Turkish Tylenol. That's not right.

Ah, the arrogance of youth.

Not to make light of current Middle East events. But these events are likely to consume much of the US political leadership for the foreseeable future. But the US is an immediate and ongoing threat to Canadian sovereignty. Of course, in my opinion.

We're getting played again 😞

#abpoli #yyc #yeg #alberta With the highest o&g revenues in the last 20 years, why is there a deficit? Could it be corruption and mismanagement?

Wow, is right 👍!

Hi @davidcoletto.bsky.social -- why did you choose these countries as a comparison for Canada rather than, I don't know, Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States?

No more photo radar to slow people down.

I have so much respect for Maya's mom for choosing during this difficult time to ask for compassion for the perpetrator's mother as she was a mother trying to do the best for her child with what sounds like very little resources and support. We can all grieve this tragedy without demonizing anyone.

Always...

I don't want to give anything to Donald Trump or the US. I don't care how much it hurts us! Easy for me to say as an older retired man. But it is how I feel.

I've been saddened today to learn that the University of Alberta is going down MAGA road and wants to abolish Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. So I've written to University President Bill Flanagan, warning him of the legal risks. Because the University may need suing.
