Have your say in the provincial government's survey for budget 2026. Make sure they feel compelled to hide the results of this one too. 😅

We caught the UCP red-handed.

We asked Public Safety & Emergency Services for any correspondence between Min. Ellis & the Edmonton Police Commission.

They told us - twice - there was none.

We asked the Commission & got 130 pages including 5 letters signed by Ellis. #abpoli

AB Politics 101: Premier Danielle Smith's master class in selective history.

AB portrays itself as a peripheral colony serving the industrial priorities of Canada’s core.

Smith's pressure on B.C. to compromise marine ecology for AB's economic benefit replicates that very dynamic.

That is all!

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.

The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

Since the UCP did not campaign on what it is doing, let’s do “recall” as one Citizen Initiative:

“The undersigned residents of Alberta petition the Legislative Assembly to request the Lt Governor to dissolve the Legislature immediately for the purpose of holding a General Election.”

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 knew that this day was coming. The UCP had been warning for months that they were going to take away the rights of transgender people (not just children but adults too). I thought I was prepared. But I am still very angry that it has happened.

Hey folks – this is Nate.
Nate is a #UCP MLA for #Lethbridge East.
Nate, for the second time in a month, voted to implement the Notwithstanding Clause.
Even though I heard he disagrees with the NWC's use.
This all sounds rather cowardly.
I'll have something more to say about Nate.
Stay tuned.

During the same week that the UCP is expanding privatization, the auditor general finds that government interference cost taxpayers over $100 million.

How can anyone deny it’s the government that’s the problem?

I’ll say it.

The UCP just invoked the notwithstanding clause on laws actively before the courts so they can rob Albertans of their human rights.

Motherfuckers.
