“When you are waiting for the results to come in, especially in a close race like it was in 2023, you are surrounded only by [your] absolute closest advisers,” Mr. Nenshi said”

And Mraiche was with Smith’s elite.

Danielle Smith & the UCP have deeply damaged Albertans’ ability to access care.

And their plan to impose two-tier, Americanized healthcare is only going to make it worse.

The UCP didn’t run on this.

We need to fight this attack on our public healthcare system. We need to fight Bill 11 #abpoli

WOW!

In March, Danielle Smith justified not calling for a public inquiry in part because her new right hand man...

(former #YEG Police Chief, Dale Mcfee)

had looked into the corrupt care scandal

The same one who the Globe showed was partying with Sam Mraiche!

NEW: This week on 'Whatever This Is' we explain why Danielle Smith’s pipeline hype hides something worse. Bill 11. A plan that lets doctors work public and private at the same time. Rich Albertans get a private pipeline of care. The rest of us wait longer and pay more.

They want to shift your attention with the DC shooting, from these topics:

- Epstein files coverup
- White House secretly colluding with Russians
- Kushner and Witkoff likely committed espionage
- failing economy
- failed soy trade deal with China
- Trump health down hill
- Hegseth murders

An American flag pin is on his left lapel. The background is blurred but shows muted red, white, and green colors, suggesting a public or official event.

Shane Getson openly lied in the Legislature this week.

He said on multiple occasions that the Supreme Court of Canada had said that possession of Child Sexual Abuse Materials is "OK".

The Supreme Court said no such thing.

AI data centers are sucking up communities’ power & water.

AI is being used by corporations to shaft consumers and is threatening young workers’ job prospects.

So Trump wants to ram through a ban on state AI regulation — all to help out his Big Tech billionaire friends.

Priorities.

This guy can get fucked
JD Vance tweet reads: “While l'm sure the causes are complicated, no nation has leaned more into "diversity is our strength, we don't need a melting pot we have a salad bowl" immigration insanity than Canada. It has the highest foreign-born share of the population in the entire G7 and its living standards have stagnated.” JD Vance follow up tweet reads: “And with all due respect to my Canadian friends, whose politics focus obsessively on the United States: your stagnating living standards have nothing to do with Donald Trump or whatever bogeyman the CBC tells you to blame. The fault lies with your leadership, elected by you.”
