UCP separatism looks like a smokescreen. While Alberta reels from health chaos, the Smith government shut down an AHS audit, blocked the auditor general, and sidelined whistleblowers. When leaders bury procurement scrutiny, distraction replaces accountability. Albertans deserve answers, not noise

They scare people first by talking about chaos, crime, and loss. Fear shuts down logic. Then they create an “us vs them” story so people feel their identity is under attack. Once people feel unsafe and tribal, simple lies feel true and facts feel threatening

Carney is right. The so called rules based order was a pleasant fiction. It worked for Canada and Europe while the US overthrew governments elsewhere. That bargain is over. Canada needs independence, diversification, and real sovereignty Build Canada

UCP and conservatives use slogans and emotionally loaded messages. These trigger the tribal part of the brain by creating an “us versus them” feeling. Loyalty and defense turn on, thinking turns off, and people focus on protecting their group instead of weighing facts.

Danielle Smith is blaming immigrants for healthcare, school, and housing failures she caused. She wants to block kids from school and deny care while cutting spending and taxes for corporations. Immigrants pay taxes. UCP mismanagement broke services, not newcomers

A court says a political fixer and a podcaster may have been paid to attack and scare a witness in Alberta’s healthcare corruption case. The judge allowed searches to find who paid them. Trying to bully witnesses is serious and threatens justice

Front line healthcare workers say Alberta’s system is in crisis. Chronic understaffing, burnout, privatization, and chaos inside AHS are driving staff out and putting patients at risk. No one voted for this. The UCP broke public healthcare

UCP talks “direct democracy” only when it helps them. They bent the rules for separatists, then jacked citizen petition fees from $500 to $25,000. Danielle Smith can call costly referendums with no petition at all. Democracy for friends. Barriers for everyone else

Danielle Smith is scapegoating immigrants to hide UCP failures. After underfunding health care, schools, and housing while cutting corporate taxes, she now blames newcomers who work, pay taxes, and keep Alberta running. This is divisive politics, not leadership

Right-wing propaganda works by triggering anger using strawmen and half truths. Anger shuts down logic, so people make emotional decisions, join the tribe, and later defend the lie as if it were fact. It feels true because the brain protects the tribe before checking evidence

The UCP is scapegoating immigrants to hide its own failures. After years of corporate tax cuts and flat funding for health care and schools, they now blame newcomers instead of fixing underfunding. Immigrants work, pay taxes, and keep Alberta running

Capitalism has been broken and corrupted by right-wing economic policies that reward those who exploit and extract the wealth created by the working class
Garbage collectors create real value by keeping cities clean, safe, and livable. Wall Street speculators mostly shuffle money without producing anything we need. Yet the ones adding real value earn very little, and the ones moving paper around get rewarded the most

Real wealth comes from people who do useful work. Nurses teachers garbage workers builders and caregivers. When they stop working life breaks down. Jobs that just move money around do not create real value

Danielle Smith’s two tier health care helps the wealthy and hurts everyone else. Doctors will chase private pay, public wait times will grow, and most Albertans will get worse care. It weakens medicare so the rich can pay less tax

Danielle Smith and the UCP are trampling the Charter. Cutting AISH dollars, flirting with two tier health care, ignoring federal law, abusing the notwithstanding clause, and targeting trans people and workers. If Ottawa stays silent, the Constitution means nothing

UCP fall session showed who they are. Four uses of the notwithstanding clause, attacks on judges, stripping rights, politicizing health care, and claiming government can change laws at will. This is not democracy. It is abuse of power

Right wingers swear that taxing the ultra rich or cracking down on speculation will make the wealthy flee and tank the economy. Yet again, reality proves them wrong. Trickle down economics is just taking from workers to protect the wealthy, and the facts keep exposing it

Public auto insurance saves drivers up to $2,000 in SK and MB and $1,500 in BC, while Alberta’s private system is the most expensive in Canada. Public or regulated power keeps prices low elsewhere, but deregulated Alberta pays the highest electricity rates. Right wing Policies only help big business

Right-wing propaganda triggers anger so people react fast, not logically. It uses simple tricks like strawmen, half truths, scapegoating, and fear priming. Once angry, people join the tribe, defend the lie as truth, and stop checking facts. Emotion comes first, logic comes last

Conservatives keep cutting and underfunding health care because they want it to fail and push privatization. When you starve a system, wait times grow. It takes years and way more money to fix the damage. BC even had one of the world’s top systems in the 90s when it was properly funded

Canada loses either way with Poilievre’s stunt. His pipeline motion is not real policy. A yes vote weakens consultation. A no vote weakens confidence. It is a trap designed to divide the country instead of build anything
