Rushing a rights‑limiting bill through overnight is an abuse of process when there’s no immediate threat to life. Democratic shortcuts are only justified for genuine emergencies.

Democracy thrives on choice. Alberta’s plan to limit candidates undermines that principle. We need fair elections, not partisan gatekeeping. Your vote should decide—not their rules. #ableg #DemandBetter

Long ballots are not the problem—lack of transparency is. This bill gives the UCP power to filter candidates. That is not reform, that is rigging. Democracy means choice, not censorship. #ableg #HumanRightsFirst

When governments start deciding who can run, democracy is in danger. Alberta’s proposed bill is a slippery slope to silencing opposition and shrinking your rights. #ableg #AccountabilityNow

A bill to restrict who can run in provincial elections is not about clarity—it is about control. Democracy thrives on choice, not filters. Alberta deserves open ballots, not partisan barriers. #ableg #DemocracyMatters

The UCP wants to decide who is “serious” enough to appear on your ballot. That is not democracy—it is gatekeeping. Voters, not politicians, should choose. Limiting candidates means limiting your voice. #ableg #HumanRightsFirst

It is deeply troubling to see platforms like Spotify, Hulu, YouTube, and HBO Max running recruitment ads for ICE.

These companies are profiting from a system that has caused immense harm to families and communities. We must demand accountability and ethical standards in advertising.

Information warfare is a serious global issue. While I focus on Canadian governance, I support efforts to counter disinformation wherever it threatens democracy and human rights. Truth must always be stronger than propaganda. #HumanRightsFirst #Callan4Change

Glyphosate spraying by forest companies in BC is a real concern, especially for biodiversity. But not all companies are foreign-owned, and inflammatory language undermines the cause. Let’s push for science-based policy and accountability, not hate. #StopTheSprayBC #TruthMatters

Alberta’s pronoun law forces teachers to out kids.

Alberta bans puberty blockers for youth under 16.

These both violate Section 7, Section 12, and Section 15 of the Canadian CRF This is not care—it is coercion. #TransRightsAreHumanRights

Who pays for this new force? Municipalities? Taxpayers? No answers. No mandate. No transparency. I oppose downloading costs onto local governments. #abpoli #OpenGovernment #HumanRightsFirst

callan4change.bsky.social @callan4change.bsky.social · 15d

86% of Albertans in RCMP-served areas want to keep the RCMP. The UCP is ignoring us. I demand a public referendum before any police transition. Democracy means listening. #KeepAlbertaRCMP #abpoli #HumanRightsFirst

callan4change.bsky.social @callan4change.bsky.social · 15d

Alberta’s proposed police force could cost over $500M to launch, with no clear plan. In a deficit year, this is not reform—it is waste. I support properly funding the RCMP, not duplicating it. #abpoli #JusticeReform #HumanRightsFirst

callan4change.bsky.social @callan4change.bsky.social · 15d

We should not replace the RCMP with a provincial police force. Bill 49 is fiscally reckless, publicly rejected, and built on misinformation. Albertans deserve safety, not political vanity projects. #KeepAlbertaRCMP #abpoli #HumanRightsFirst

callan4change.bsky.social @callan4change.bsky.social · 15d

Alberta hides contracts, health data, and budget details behind closed doors. That is not democracy—it is deception. I demand full public access to all government records, real-time budget tracking, and whistleblower protections. #abpoli #OpenGovernment #HumanRightsFirst

callan4change.bsky.social @callan4change.bsky.social · 15d

Transit deserts are human rights deserts. I support ultra high-speed rail, accessible local transit, and Indigenous co-governance of infrastructure. #CedarLine #abpoli #TransitJustice #HumanRightsFirst

Alberta youth deserve more than slogans. I support constitutional education in every school, youth-led policy councils, and protections for student whistleblowers. #abpoli #YouthRights #HumanRightsFirst

Mental health care in Alberta is underfunded, understaffed, and inaccessible. I support universal mental health coverage and peer-led crisis response. #abpoli #MentalHealthMatters #HumanRightsFirst

Tent cities are not solutions—they are symptoms. Alberta’s housing crisis is a policy failure. I support federal buyouts of closed care facilities to restore dignity. #abpoli #HousingIsAHumanRight #HumanRightsFirst
