Seems to me there is a social contract with government, that we pay taxes and government provide services and infrastructure. UCP wants to use our tax dollars for pet projects and to prop up industry. They get tax cuts, we get the burden.

Love this episode explaining a little known bit of history behind Winnie the Pooh- a Winnipegger!

My feelings exactly.

Made crabapple and crabapple mint jelly. Been doing this every year for decades. Great way to relax and forget about the disturbing stuff for a spell.

A thread on Justice Feasby’s erudite judgment dismissing the applicn from Sylvestre to strike the Chief Electoral Officer’s stated case to have the Ct consider the validity of Sylvestre’s referendum Q whether AB shd “become a sovereign country and cease to be a province in Canada”? #ableg #abpoli 1/

Here’s an idea.

Absolutely.

We need more signature collectors, as a vast majority of Albertans want to sign this petition. Please join our team and become a signature collector. Let’s send a strong message that Albertans are proud Canadians. Register here: www.forever-canadian.ca #ForeverCanadian

What a night, Edmonton-Strathcona! Albertans deserve better. And today, they chose better. I’m deeply honoured by the opportunity to serve Edmonton-Strathcona and all Albertans as a Member of the Legislative Assembly. Thank you for putting your trust in me!

Brutally frank judgment from Justice Feasby in what was effectively an application that the case management judge in a high conflict matter recuse themselves: Paul v Stephenson (Estate). "This application was without merit and should not have been commenced" & a waste of scarce judicial resources.

We have waited a long time for this but it's good to see it esp in the form of joint statement. While the focus is the West Bank it's also good to see this: "There must be no unlawful transfer of Palestinians from Gaza or within the West Bank, nor any reduction in the territory of the Gaza Strip."

Democracy in action. Tireless footwork. Congratulations to @brucefanjoy.bsky.social We salute you. #cdnpoli

Gotta love Bono in this new interview praising Canada for rejecting Poilievre the populist and electing the thoughtful, intelligent & competent Carney. “51 reasons to love Canada,” indeed. Poilievre is reviled and Carney is revered inside & outside of this great country. 🇨🇦 (Part 2 in thread below)

Such a one sided survey. If you oppose GoA standards you are asked to explain. If you support GoA standards you get a libertarian pass. This is such a shitty survey.

So Premier Smith appoints Jason Stephan, the MLA who calls for a referendum on Alberta independence/separation, to the Alberta First Cabinet policy committee; just to make sure that it's balanced I suppose. #abpoli

Finally somebody noticed the beauty!

Could even Trump be so ruthless and vicious - deliberately crash stock markets so he and his buds can buy low? www.msn.com/en-ca/news/w...

In America, healthcare is big business. In Canada, it is a right.

Looking for a Canadian election issue to grill candidates - Ask how they will protect Canada's water from the U.S. And this piece does not even mention the worry that WATER is not specifically excluded as a product under NAFTA/GATT/ www.theglobeandmail.com/podcasts/the...

Canada you kicked this man to the curb? I am ashamed of you, many fell for the CON lies and misinformation. Justin Trudeau was a GREAT PM who truly loves CANADA. What a shame how badly this man has been treated. I have always liked him and voted for him I will miss his kindness and humanity.

Good information. I want retailers to put this visibly on shelves etc. with the goods so consumers don’t have to pick up and examine every item. The boycott would be more efficient and effective then. If Made in Canada, they should alert the consumer whether the product partially is from the U.S.

Essential reading for Ministers Jean and Schulz - and oh, yes, anybody living downstream from the headwaters especially farmer and irrigators. It's short and a greater explainer of the risks that arise when coal mining mobilizes selenium.

This Australian coal mine could pollute the water as far away from SW Alberta as #MedicineHat, Premier Smith’s own riding, and #Saskatoon!

Our family includes thirteen adults; 10 of them call themselves provinces & 3, territories. Mostly we look out for each other but recently one of us, we'll call them "AB," says that the only thing that matters is what's important for AB. AB has lost all sense of community, family & nation #canpoli

It's time for Premier Smith to get back in her lane. The conduct of international relations and international trade is an *exclusive" (oh how the premier usually loves that word!) federal matter. #ableg #canpoli

I needed this good news. Let’s keep it up Canada ❤️

This should be laughable but it’s not funny. God help our American friends and us.

One of the most respected leaders in the world. He had his reputation assassinated by the fascist RWNJs and #CanadianMedia And Canadians are falling for it.

Today was not Justin Trudeau’s loss. It was Canada’s loss. And Canadians will realize it soon enough. #cdnpoli #peipoli

"They can try to justify coal mining in the Eastern Slopes, somewhere, but to do so they have to dismiss the ecological, hydrological, water quality, health and social issues as well as reclamation feasibility. " Excellent article, infuriating. Full of UCP lies, distortions and fabrications.

Happy Birthday Dr.Fauci and thank you for saving us! 💙

Wonderful news for Ecuador. Oil development has been fought re the Ecuadorian diverse ecosystems for decades.

BREAKING! The Breakdown & our host are the target of a $6 million lawsuit by the importer of Vanch Masks, Atabay childrens medications & the host of staffers, MLA's & Ministers in elite skyboxes, Sam Mraiche! You can help! Please share! #abpoli #cdnpoli #SaveTheBreakdownAB

That the UCP is pushing this through along with Brian Jean's lies is a travesty. Grassy is not "advanced" and under Lougheed's 1976 Coal Policy should have never been approved.

Congratulations to new NDP MLA Rob Miyashiro!

Anyone else out there on the spectrum from critical of to totally outraged by Chrystia Freeland?

It's time that all government departments and the ABCs (agencies, boards and commissions) of the Government of Alberta joined @bsky.app If they don't they're not communicating with their publics and they are preferring some for-profit fora over others. #abpoli #canpoli

A must watch. Powerfully speaks to the danger, obstruction, and damage of Poilievre.

This Amnesty International report must not be ignored.

Six of AB's caribou ranges have <10% undisturbed habitat remaining. They need 65% to have a shot at survival. Corporations will stop at nothing to convert all of Alberta's natural beauty into shareholder profits, regardless of its impact on wildlife, ecosystems, and local communities. #ABLeg #ABPoli

Why are other leading jurisdictions achieving wind and solar levels 2-4 times higher than Alberta? New Pembina report outlines the best practices we could be following - storage, interties and better planning by system operators and government #ableg
