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. 🧵👇

And the UCP has just defunded recalls.

LOL.

So free, so democratic.

So, there are no salary caps in baseball?
Why not?

I grew up a sports fan in Ottawa; I'm used to disappointment. In fact, I've come to expect it. 🤷‍♀️

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

I think it's a 'they're the best of what's on offer but we don't like what's on offer' kind of thing. Like when parents offer their kids a choice between two healthy things and the kids always want a third option that is dessert.

Like, tell me you trade in your 'Canadianism' but haven't lived in or spent any time in Canada in ages. 🤦‍♀️

Thank goodness that's one thing federalism can save us from ... unless she gets her provincial police force?

The Alberta Teacher's Association is eerily quiet today, right? Like, I expected ... something.

Canada needs to get rid of the NotWithStanding Clause.

No politician should be able to override the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. NO ONE.

The Charter is one of the foundations of our country.

Any politician who wants to override it is a coward or a despot.

There can be no debate about that.

Really shows you we've reached peak awful conservative leadership.

Or should I say the bottom of the trough?
Though, I don't want to give them the idea to go lower.

You're a Saint, Deirdre. I cannot tolerate the UCP gaslighting 🤦‍♀️ Thank you for saving me from torturing my ears.

Before my time in AB. Sadly, not much seems to change. Stubbornly refusing to evolve seems to be the mo here.

Today, I submitted 456,365 Albertans’ signatures to Elections Alberta, petitioning the Premier to do the right thing, avoid a divisive and economically harmful referendum, and allow MLAs to vote and reaffirm that Alberta’s future is in Canada.🇨🇦

If Danielle Smith and her UCP government strip teachers of their constitutionally protected right to strike and bargain collectively, it will be the last straw. This is a government that is: This is…

Contact your MLAs, Alberta. Be LOUD. Show them you value your rights over their ideology, lest we follow the shitshow to the south.

Alberta : Governance by Notwithstanding Clause.

Whose rights will be taken away next?
Are you okay with this?
