r/alberta took this down as not being Alberta-related enough, further confirming the extent to which reddit in AB is governed by cops. Please share with anyone confused about Chief Neufeld’s resignation.
This post was removed for violating our expectations on the type of submissions We are looking for in the subReddit that it was not deemed related to Alberta. This is better suited to r/Calgary.

Trump: “What they do very well is they send their criminals into the United States, and they send Tren de Aragua.”

Following Trump’s rationale, why doesn't he summarily execute them on USA soil, instead of arresting them?

Listen to this interview with Tim Cartmell. He supported party politics and big money in municipal politics. He gets big corporate money, far more than any other candidate. Then he interprets obvious questions about whether he will be influenced by big money as an accusation that he is corrupt.

On this beautiful fall Friday evening of a long weekend, we encountered this guy riding his ear-splitting, backfiring motorcycle at 114 St & Belgravia Rd, who, justifiably, knows the Edmonton Police Service will do NOTHING about it. It will happen all Thanksgiving Weekend.

Tonight, I am at the Edmonton Remand Centre collecting signatures for the Forever Canadian Petition. I have no idea what the turnout will be. ERC has placed posters in all the living units. So, keeping my fingers crossed. #ForeverCanadian #abpoli

This proves the Edmonton Police Service/Dale McFee/Warren Driechel/City of Edmonton/UCP Encampment & Navigation Centre strategy was nothing but a political fraud. Now that McFee is the UCP top civil servant, what will he do about it?

"Mayoral candidate and Better Edmonton leader Tim Cartmell, and mayoral candidate Paul Bakhmut, both said they didn’t have a position on the issue. Council candidates Jason Bale and Michael Elliott said the same."

Nice.
