Retired, lifetime Albertan. Ethical biocentrist. Dog lover. I like a few people too.
Everyone who cares about the future of democracy in Alberta should read this post and get involved
I don't want any Albertan to read this.

It's better for me and my UCP if you don't.

Carney’s approach here is very much in keeping with an observation Paul Wells made back in the summer, that he’s focused on short-term deliverables, not long-term governance challenges.
The problem is, neglecting and failing to improve governance will leave Canada with weaker foundations.
So the PM intended to inform B.C.'s premier once the negotiations with Alberta have been finalized?

Nation-building promised, sausage-making delivered.

Regardless of whether this pipeline will ever be built, the process itself is profoundly damaging.

Note the UCP's meme 👇.

In this particular case, the government has broken commitments to preserve public healthcare.

More worrisome, they're keeping more promises than they made in their 2023 platform.

Abortions are healthcare.

Late term abortions are lifesaving healthcare. They are almost exclusively used when there are serious medical complications.

Restricting abortion is not about Christian values, it's about controlling and subjugating women, and keeping poor people poor.

This is a UCP MLA calling for a referendum on abortion inside of the legislature.

They’re coming for abortion.

Under his eye.

Agreed. The public is thirsty for analysis.

I see Canadian physicians publicly speaking up on medical policy constantly. Where is that visibility from the legal community on democratic backsliding? Break the silence.

Thanks to those who do speak up and to your work.

#ABpoli #Ableg
Spoke to a room of lawyers and judges tonight. Told them: when many Albertans picture the UCP base, they picture you.

They were shocked — most of them oppose the democratic backsliding.

I reminded them: as long as they stay silent, that perception will stick.

All pluralists need to speak out.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, I hope Albertans will remember that trans kids and teens are living breathing humans who just want to be themselves, without fear of hate and discrimination. Demonizing kids merely to score political points in some weird culture war is craven and cruel.

I'm not a fan of recall, petitions, and referenda.

However, it is entirely predictable that these tools would be used against a government that refuses to consult on policy and a caucus that has put partisanship ahead of listening to constituents.
