I am grateful to be born in Canada, and I don't want that taken away by some crazy person, which is why I support the Forever Canadian petition

thetyee.ca/Analysis/202... This article nails it. We’re dealing with a crime boss.

#KatAbughazaleh is her name. This new crop of Democrats needs to be the lead, be the ones in interview segments on the news, not the likes of Chuck Schumer (who has failed to meet the moment). #ICE is a Gestapo force for a neonazi regime.

What a heartening sight at the Alberta Legislature grounds today. It was an honour to be there with my friend, @prairievixen.bsky.social, amongst a crowd of people who care deeply about public education. #AbLeg #AbEd #RedForEd #IStandWithTeachers

Wow! Way to show up Alberta! It’s wonderful seeing people taking their power back! Love, love that sign - “no spank you”!

Two-thirds of National Park Service employees have been furloughed during the ongoing government shutdown, worsening an already severe staffing shortage. With limited personnel remaining, essential maintenance, law enforcement, and visitor services are significantly reduced.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith posted a photo of a child in a crowd holding up a sign saying "My Sober Parents" on social media platforms this week. The caption said his parents were "lost to addiction." The kid's mom says the post was "completely false" and the premier "used my son for clicks":

Here is the segment from this morning. More lies from the UCP, I applaud this mom! We deserve change, and an ethical provincial government here in #Alberta www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

Please share this... Danielle Smith shared the below picture with a completely fabricated story. The mother has since stepped forward & with CBC speaking to the harm Smith's fabricated story has done. Smith's post has hurt her family and her business. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

MSF staff are universally understood to be engaged in an essentially sacred form of work. For a state to nonetheless continuously murder them is a testament to a truly unthinkable degree of depravity. msf.org/msf-denounce...

“2 parts of his threefold plan — punishing drug users, & ensuring police & peace officers have more tools to punish them with—will only drive people back into secrecy. That isn’t compassion, it’s a death sentence.” ⁦‪@guyfelicella‬⁩ on Marshall Smiths “plan”! calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu...

“Five provinces are increasing their minimum wage today to support workers amid affordability issues.” But not Alberta! Because with the UCP it’s about the companies here, not the people… #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/busines...

Last week, Trump declared “Antifa” a domestic terrorist organization. This is why the far-right in the US & Canada see it as an obstacle that has to be cleared in order to carry out their smash-and-grab of the political establishment. 👇 🧵 www.antihate.ca/trump_lying_...

Calgary election PSA. We haven't heard of a single candidate forum in Wards 2, 3, 12, 13 or 14. And three of those have no incumbents. What gives?? WAKEY WAKEY, FOLKS! There's an election in 20 days! Get a candidate debate going already! The Sprawl will even livestream it for you! #yyccc

Jane Goodall was not only a pioneering primatologist, she also campaigned more relentlessly and selflessly for the natural world than anyone I know. A great soul if ever there was one www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

The UCP were warned and did it anyway. Here is the consequence.

This makes my blood boil 🤬🤬 I have a story from Penticton: at the hospital there (as in many places), staffing shortages have been brutal. Can you blame people for wanting to live in places like Vancouver or Victoria instead? At one point... #medsky #cdnpoli #bcpoli #immigration 1/n

www.castanet.net/news/Pentict... We must remain vigilant against this creeping hate speech; no place for racism in our community that is so diverse. #racism #hatespeech #diversity

Also, let’s not forget this fun little data point… #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Alberta’s healthcare waitlist has grown so large that they decided to stop counting the people who die while waiting for care. www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...

Wounded knee was NOT a battle, it was a massacre of indigenous Americans, mostly children/women! Why is Hegseth glorifying this and white washing it!! Today , on Native American day of all days ! Of course it’s about racism/bigotry/hate towards indigenous Americans!!

Have you ever wondered how the far right manage to normalize their ideologies into the mainstream, as we’re now seeing in the United States? Well, let me explain it to you — because they’re trying to do it here in Canada, too, using the term “remigration.” This is important:

Damnit - the heavy rain forecast for metro Vancouver better get up there pretty quickly.

When right-wing Premiers use the Clause frequently/casually to squash human rights, they prove they don’t care about human rights at all. Alberta’s Premier wants to use it to persecute trans kids. Ontario’s Premier wants to use it to literally kill/injure people by ripping out safe infrastructure.

You may also find it useful to hear Kristy Harcourt and Alex Marshall explain exactly why invoking the notwithstanding clause to strip LGBQT students of their rights is bad for us all. s358.podbean.com/pb/7f6029061...

The first time an Alberta government invoked the notwithstanding clause, public outrage forced a reversal in less than 24 hours. I wish to God Albertans would show the same moral fury now, when school children are outed & bullied by the government that is supposed to protect them. #ableg #abpoli

I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

For almost a decade, Joely BigEagle-Kequahtooway has been trying to change the name of the City of Regina’s Dewdney Avenue. The street name was named after Edgar Dewdney, who was the Indian Commissioner for the western Prairies in the late 1800s.
